Overview

Naoise (Summer) is a well-rounded character who simultaneously serves offensive, defensive, and support roles.

Strengths

• Greatly reduces incoming damage, especially when facing Dark enemies.
• His second skill helps hit the DEF Down cap and, when used with Lumen LanceConsumed upon using Naoise's skills / Recovers upon using charge attack (Can't be removed)
  , can deal over 1 million damage.
• Significantly boosts his own Charge Attack specs with his third skill—and if used while he has Lumen LanceConsumed upon using Naoise's skills / Recovers upon using charge attack (Can't be removed)
  , the whole party gets the boost.
• Gains a boost to his multiattack rate if he is not debuffed, and a large boost to defense if he is.

Weaknesses

• He can have only one Lumen LanceConsumed upon using Naoise's skills / Recovers upon using charge attack (Can't be removed)
  at a time.
• Needs help for a full damage cut against attacks like Skyfall.

How to Play

Naoise benefits from an easy-to-use kit that only takes slight management of Lumen LanceConsumed upon using Naoise's skills / Recovers upon using charge attack (Can't be removed)
.

• Deciding which skill to use the first Lumen Lance stack comes down to which you value more:
  • Increasing Naoise's debuff success chance on  Lucent ThrustLight damage to a foe (Damage cap: ~550,000).

    Strength: 80%Duration: Until used and 20% C.A. DMG Cap Up (1 time)Charge attack DMG cap is boosted (1 time)
    Strength: 20%Duration: Until used last until used.)
• The similar cooldown lengths for Lucent Thrust and Aureate Stance means he can fall into a routine of using Lumen LanceConsumed upon using Naoise's skills / Recovers upon using charge attack (Can't be removed)
  on whichever skill is off cooldown, and by the time the other skill is off cooldown, he has replenished Lumen LanceConsumed upon using Naoise's skills / Recovers upon using charge attack (Can't be removed)
  .

Last update:

Gamewith's recommended EMP build for Naoise (Summer).

Start off with Debuff Success, then Critical. After that, take DA and the rest is your choice. The support skill is a bit situational, but can be useful in more difficult raid battles where all-element damage cuts like  PhalanxAll parties gain 50% DMG CutTaking 50% less DMG
Duration: 1 turn Damage Cut reducing damage taken for all elements.
Warning! Does not work for Plain Damage!. are used often. (Specific-element cuts like 20% Dark CutDark DMG is cut 20%
Dark Damage Cut. do not count for the skill.)
