Dual Swords Tristan Strategy Tips
A Character That Builds Up Fire Element Burst
His Dual Swords Normal Skill accumulates a large amount of the Burst Gauge against enemies with a Fire Defense debuff. Since he can apply the debuff with his Special Attack, use his Special Attack followed by his Normal Skill.
Enhance Fire Attacks By Applying Bursts And Debuffs
Tristan's Passive, "Vigorous Spirit," enhances allies' Fire Element attacks when he triggers a Fire Element Burst. He can also apply a Fire Defense debuff with his Special Attack, allowing him to boost the damage of Fire Element Attackers.
Works Well With Fire Element Attackers
As a character that accumulates Fire Element Burst, he works well with Fire Element Attackers who deal high damage during Fire Element Burst. Pair him with Guila or Slater and attack by tagging out to them after activating Burst.
Greatsword Tristan Strategy Tips
A DPS That Stacks Ember to Deal DMG
The Greatsword's
Ultimate Move's Damage Increases with Charging
The Greatsword's Ultimate Move's damage increases when charged by holding it down. Since you can't move while Charging, aim to use it when an enemy is stunned or during their recovery frames after a major attack.
Form a Team with Characters Who Can Provide Crit Support
Greatsword Tristan also enhances his own Crit Chance when his Special Attack hits. By combining this with the Crit buff from Grimoire Tioreh and the resistance debuff from Nunchaku Slater/Howzer, you can turn your Ember-enhanced skills/Ultimate Move into an even more powerful Strike, so we highly recommend it.
Longsword Tristan Strategy Tips
A Character that Builds Wind Burst
The Longsword's Normal Skill accumulates a large amount of Burst Gauge against enemies inflicted with Bleed. Since the Special Attack can cause Bleed, always use it before a Normal Skill to take full advantage of it.
DoT + Prevents Healing From Bleed
The Longsword's Special Attack inflicts Bleed on enemies, dealing DoT for 20 seconds. This will also prevent healing, and can be used as a great counter against enemies that utilizes heal.
Works Well With Wind DPS
Wand Elaine and Lance Howzer are able to increase their damage against enemies during Wind Burst. Longsword Tristan is also great at building Wind Burst Gauge and is best paired with Wind DPS to increase their damage output.

Hendrickson Is a Versatile Healer
Hendrickson grants Defense Buffs and creates a healing area with his Ultimate Move. He also performs Magic Recovery when switching, giving him exceptional Support capabilities. He can be effective in various team compositions, including Wand Tioreh and Grimoire King, who have similar roles.

This Wind team focuses on Elaine, who deals massive Crit Damage during a Wind Burst. Once you activate the Burst with Tristan, switch over to Elaine to unleash her attacks. Howzer's Ultimate Move boosts the Crit Damage for all Wind characters, making it effective to use before triggering a Burst.
Inflict Bleed and Use Howzer's Special Attack
Hitting a bleeding enemy with Howzer's Special Attack lowers their Crit Resistance. The best strategy here is to apply Bleed using Tristan, then quickly swap to Howzer to land his Special Attack.

Build up Burst and apply Bleed with Tristan, then reduce the enemy's Crit Resistance using Howzer's Special Attack. Additionally, Howzer's Ultimate can further increase the Crit Damage of Wind-element characters.
