Phoenix - Abilities & How To Use
Phoenix Shift
| Attack | Will | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Midair | ✓ | Range | Single Unit |
| Learn AP | - | Master AP | 375 |
| Cooldown | - |
The ability is effective when the enemy is far away and can move to an enemy in the air. Immediately after activation, the □/△ buttons can be used to connect to Shift Strike or Shift Shot combo, which can provide some firepower compensation against enemies at close range.
Heatwave
| Attack | Will | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Midair | ✕ | Range | Long Dist. |
| Learn AP | 120 | Master AP | 1620 |
| Cooldown | 25(8.3) sec |
The wall of flame when activated can drown out enemy magic, and when it is drowned out, the number of shockwaves increases and the interval between uses is reduced by 1/3. It is excellent as a medium-range attack even when used normally, but it is powerful if it is used as counterattack in time with the enemy's magic.
Rising Flames
| Attack | Will | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Midair | ✕ | Range | Forward |
| Learn AP | - | Master AP | 1500 |
| Cooldown | 20 sec |
The ability can launch lightweight enemies into the air. Because of its short interval and easy-to-use ability, it is useful in both boss and easy enemy battles. Note, however, that the launch effect does not work on bosses.
Scarlet Cyclone
| Attack | Will | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Midair | ✕ | Range | Surround |
| Learn AP | - | Master AP | 1475 |
| Cooldown | 30(10) sec |
The ability can attack in all directions, making it very powerful against easy enemies. If it is activated while being attacked, its power is strengthened and the interval between uses is shortened to 1/3. It is not suitable for one-on-one boss battles.
Flames of Rebirth
| Attack | Will | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Midair | ✕ | Range | Forward |
| Learn AP | 1695 | Master AP | 6640 |
| Cooldown | 120 sec |
When activated, it will cause flames to spread throughout the surrounding area, while recovering the white gauge of Clive's HP. Use it as a means of attack when you want to wipe out a large number of enemies, or as a means of recovery when your HP has been depleted.
