How To Play & Rotation for Edgar

Basic Playstyle

  • Use the attacker's HP drop as a swap cue
  • Hold Wild Current to heal allies
  • Deploy a healing zone with the Ultimate, then swap out

Use the Attacker's HP Drop as a Swap Cue

Edgar is a healer specialized in HP Recovery, so he shines when you need to heal up an ally that has taken damage. Rather than keeping him on the field constantly, swap him in temporarily when healing is needed for an effective rotation.

Hold Wild Current to Heal Allies

Edgar's Wild Current deals damage on hold while also healing the ally with the lowest HP. The longer you hold, the more healing it provides, but be aware that he is defenseless during the cast and the cooldown is extended, so use it judiciously.

Deploy a Healing Zone with the Ultimate, Then Swap Out

Edgar's Finnegan's Wake deploys a zone that continuously restores HP. Since the healing zone remains in place even after switching characters, the strongest play is to swap to an attacker after activation to combine offense with healing.

Keen InsightEdgar's thoughts are stirred by his allies' safety. Converts 3% of any teammate's Max HP lost into 1 Charge for Finnegan's Vigil, up to 20 Charges. Resets after casting Finnegan's Vigil.

Prioritize Rampage's usability and HP Recovery boost

We recommend "Rookie Anomaly Hunter," which extends the cooldown extension on continuous use of Redirect Skill: Rampage up to 3 seconds, or "Eibon's Detective," which increases healing. As Rampage's rotation improves, healing opportunities increase and HP management becomes easier.

The more Awakening Slots, the more her support power increases

With more Awakening Slots, not only does her healing increase, but opportunities to acquire Keys of Truth also rise, making it easier to extend the duration of Finnegan's Wake. Additionally, you can add a DEF buff to Finnegan's Wake, transforming her into a healer that combines healing + buffs.
