Strategic Character Investment Tips for Gamers

  • In the early game of character Trace investment, it is advised not to overly invest in traces for every character. A good stopping point is Trace level eight, as levels 9 and 10 are costly with diminishing value in damage increase. Preserve resources for other characters needed for investment.
  • Focus on investing in essential stats for characters, like Servall or ASA, such as boosting party speed and attack percentage, rather than filling up every stat in the tree. Acquiring strong four-star characters like Pella, especially with E4 unlocked, can be highly beneficial in the game. It is recommended to refer to community tier lists for valuable insights on the best units in the game.
