Synergy
Bident will help Lancelot a lot due to the many counters he will be doing.
Prioritize Skill DMG Cap, as much of Lancelot's damage comes from his skills. After that, get Critical, C.A. DMG and Triple Attack. Players are free to fill in the rest although maxing C.A. DMG is highly recommended. Double Attack is not recommended due to his skill's Guaranteed DA.
