How to Play

  • Use his skills to deal damage whenever available as they are the cornerstone of his playstyle.
  • Ensure he is able to use his Charge Attack consistently, this can be made easier by placing him in the last slot of the party and providing him with additional support via other characters that can increase his charge bar or charge bar gain.
