Move In A Way That Allows You To Take The Lead As Much As Possible

The first player to declare the end of their turn will be the first to go first in the next round. in other words, if you attack multiple times in one turn or carelessly switch characters, you are likely to go second. If you can go first, it will be much easier to deal and plan for Elemental Reactions.

When Fighting NPCs, Prioritize Attack Over Recovery

Character Cards Have Normal Attack, Elemental Skill, Elemental Burst

NPCs do not move similar to human players. Simply put, they are easier to deal with. Rather than preparing a lot of cards that recover health, it is better to focus on going on the offensive.
