Priorities

Prioritize Critical and Light ATK first. Skill DMG Cap is next due to having two damage skills, then C.A. DMG next if necessary. Take his Extended Mastery Support skill next, and if desired, Triple Attack. Because of his strong DA buff from  Royal CurtainAll allies gain Veil (1 time)Debuffs will be nullified (1 time)
