Notable Rewards
Sortie Field Effect
For this Proving Grounds, use healing skills to boost ATK! Include characters that can use healing skills in your party to boost allies' ATK and smash your way to victory!
Characters with healing skills will be indicated by an icon displayed under their thumbnail on the character list when forming a sortie party.
Because Io (Grand)'s skill Heal III changes to a buff skill after her fifth uncap, she will not have a P icon displayed under her thumbnail.
