    It works the same way as Scarlet and Baron. They basically increase the effectiveness of your energy expenditures. They do stack so if you have Scarlet right hand+Baron+Envy/Vice and Lycaena all seated you can get very nice bonuses for job completion.

      Its the percentage of the job am i right? I tried without it,The percentage increase was 3 percent , i tried with it then its still 3 percent. I was expecting it to be 3 + 3(Lycaena bonus) . That isnt the case unfortunately.

        it seems to me its more useful on jobs that give out smaller percentages per job completion, I was doing a job the other day and I was getting a extra percent here and there between taps but that didnt stop the amount of clicks needed to get me to 100 percent, my lycaena is 2 star currently.

          Every time u do a job that is 100%. So if u need to spend 10 times on a job to finish u actually do a tenth (is that right in English?) per action. So ways spoken 10% of that job. If u do a job with Lycaena u do 103% per action and not 10%+3%! In this example u might even still need to do that job 10 times to finish it.

          So there is a boost sure but not as much as u might think. And that 3% I guess is on bronze stars and even less on silver/gold.

            No. If you're normally doing 3% then with a 3% Lycaena bonus, you'll do 1.03*3%, so 3.09%, which you won't notice until all those fractional percentages add up and you see it jump by 4% (I believe on the 11th or 12th time doing that job, in this case).
