Grace's Strength

Anomoly Character with Outstanding Shock Ability

Grace is an Anomoly Character that uses her Special Attack which is outstanding at Shocking enemies. The Anomoly Buildup is high even with the base Special Attack as long as you have enough Zap. The range is wide as well so it should be easy to apply Disorder to multiple enemies.

Tips!	Apply a different Attribute Anomaly using her ally, then immediately switch to Grace and Shock the enemy to activate the Disorder Effect easily.

Easy to Perform Combos

Grace can dodge attacks or use her Special Attack during her Basic Attack combo without having to start the combo all over again. The 3rd and 4th hits of the Basic Attack are strong and you don't need to worry about it getting interrupted. This allows you to accumulate Zap without stopping your attacks so you can just focus on Shocking the enemies.

Enhance Shock Skill to Create a Shock Team

Grace can enhance Shock DMG for the whole team with her Additional Ability, so building an Electric party without aiming for Disorder is also possible rather than having multiple Attributes like normal. This is especially strong against enemies weak against Electric, like machines.

Grace's Weakness

Can't Work with Both Stun & Support

When adding Anomaly characters to your squad, including Grace, they will be used in place of Stun and Support characters. In exchange for overwhelming Attribute Anomaly performance, the frequency of Stunned and Quick Assist will be significantly reduced.

Grace - Strategy and Combo

“Zap” 8-Layer Charge → Repeat Special Attack

Grace accumulates 8 layers of “Zap” with Basic Attack/Dash Attack and (EX) Special Attack with enhanced Anomaly Buildup applies Shock quickly. How many Zaps you can stack depends on the number of hits of each attack so be sure to know them so you can count them.

Recommended W-engine

W-engine	Recommendation
Fusion Compiler	Recommend: - Signature W-Engine that matches her abilities - Basic combo will greatly increase Shock DMG - PEN Rate increase also helps with DMG output
Electro-Lip Gloss	Recommend: - Increase Shocked DMG with ATK, DMG stats and Anomaly Proficiency - Easy to activate, should stay active most of the time - Obtain in New Eridu City Fund
Rainforest Gourmet	Recommend: - Consume Energy to increase ATK - Advanced Stats increase Anomaly Proficiency
Weeping Gemini	Recommend: - Increase DMG with Shock effect - Effect is massive when buff is maximized - Great for team with no Stun Agent
[Magnetic Storm] Alpha	Recommend: - Anomaly Proficiency Buff is rare and can increase Shock Anomaly Buildup - The basic stats are low so cannot rely on Electric Damage

Grace - Best Team Comp

Disorder Team

			Bangboo
Ellen	Grace	Rina	Plugboo

Activate Disorder with Electric & Ice

Electric & Ice Team with everyone's Additional Abilities activated. Grace can apply Shock, and Ellen can Freeze the enemy as the main DPS. while trying to apply Disorder. Also, Rina can extend the Shock effect while also increasing Electric damage against Shocked enemies.

Use Grace when Enemy is Frozen

Use Ellen as the main attacker since she has high ATK, Stun and Freeze stats and once the enemy is Frozen, switch to Grace to apply Disorder. Then use Rina to activate PEN buff and then back to Ellen using Quick Assist. Try to use Ellen's Ultimate when the enemy has Disorder and have the PEN buff activated.

Shock Team

			Bangboo
Anton	Grace	Rina	Safety

Use Grace's Powerful Shock Effect

In addition to Grace who can apply Shock easily, Anton can increase damage against Shocked enemies and Rina extends the Shock effect and increases Electric damage. This team is especially strong against machine type enemies which are weak against Electric attacks.

Use Grace then Connect to Rina & Anton

Grace should do most of the attacking and use Rina's EX Special attack to apply PEN buff once she has enough Energy, then switch to Anton using Quick Assist. If Anton can make use of Rina's PEN Rate buff when the enemy is Stunned, that can deal massive damage.

Tips!	Anton's Burst Mode consumes Energy to deal high damage. Try to save Energy until the enemy is Stunned to deal more damage.

[F2P] Low-rarity Team

			Bangboo
Billy	Grace	Anby	Electroboo

Can be Assembled with Free Characters

Both Anby and Billy can be obtained early in the story. So it should be fairly easy to assemble this team. Also, Grace and Anby are both Electric so this team can easily apply Shock to enemies.

Easy & Simple Strategy

Every Agent can activate their Additional Ability. The strategy is also simple, apply Shock with Grace, Stun the enemy with Anby and then Billy can deal massive damage. However applying Disorder can be difficult using Billy, so try to replace him once you get a more rare character.

Recommended Characters

Character	Recommendation
Rina	Recommend: - Additional Ability activates when another character in your squad shares the same Attribute - Both have Shock Anomaly enhancements, making it easy to build a party
Anton	Recommend: - Additional Ability activates when another character in your squad shares the same Faction - Great match with increased DMG against Shocked enemies
