Tips for Using Skills
- Keep an eye on the 'Learn' column! This tells you exactly which class and level you need to be to get that skill. Sometimes it's worth having a character reclass just to pick up a specific skill.
- Skills like 'Dual Strike+' and 'Dual Guard+' are fantastic for units that tend to fight next to each other. They really boost your team's overall combat effectiveness.
- 'Outdoor Fighter' and 'Indoor Fighter' are situational but can be lifesavers on certain maps. Pay attention to the terrain!
- 'Aether' and 'Luna' are great offensive skills that can turn the tide of battle by letting you bypass enemy defenses or deal massive damage.
- Don't forget about support skills like 'Charm' and 'Solidarity'. Positioning your units correctly to take advantage of these buffs is key to winning tougher fights.
