Best Builds for Flare

Recommended Build

Basic Attack												Reaction
Merciful Strike												Battlefield Healing
Skill
Cure Blow								Thunderbolt Assault								Dedication
Weapon								Trinket								Tarot
Hollow Axe								Old Scrolls of Auguste								Mercy of The High Priestess

This is a team build that can attack and heal simultaneously on the front lines. Since the healing amount of [Cure Blow] increases with physical attacks and the healing amount of [Battlefield Healing] increases with magic defense, be sure to focus on raising these stats with Engravings.

Recommended Gear, Tarots, & Engravings

Recommended Weapons for Flare

Hollow Axe

Tuning Hammer

Cornucopia Axe

The [Hollow Axe], which enhances both offense and defense, is the top recommendation. Other strong options include the [Tuning Hammer], ideal for stages that require buff removal, and the [Cornucopia Axe], which excels at NRG recovery.

Recommended Trinkets for Flare

Old Scrolls of Auguste

Disaster Bottle

Spring Pill

We recommend Trinkets that support allies, or the [Spring Pill] as a means to restore your own HP.

Recommended Tarots for Flare

Mercy of The High Priestess

Silence of The Hermit

Temptation of The Devil

Recommended Tarots include [The High Priestess] to boost healing, [The Hermit] for damage reduction, and [The Devil] for boosting both offense and defense. Others include [The Arbiter] for buff removal and debuff infliction, and [The Moon] for HP recovery—these are stage-dependent.

Recommended Engravings for Flare

Resonance	Effect
Cup Cup	Increases Healing Effect by 10% and Healing Received by 10%.
Sword Wand	Before actively attacking, for each 1 tile traversed, increases ATK and DEF by 4%, up to 12%. The effect lasts until the start of the next turn,
Wand Pentacle	Decreases physical DMG taken by 15%.

If prioritizing healing, [Cup+Cup] is recommended. Other good combinations include [Sword+Wand] for boosting offense and defense, and [Wand+Pentacle] or [Cup+Pentacle] for increasing durability.
