Outrage and Fantasista

Fantasista, meanwhile, is a battle skill that deals +200% damage to a stunned target which is useful against bosses and high-level regular enemies.

Get Auto Healing and DEF Up 16%

Try to get Auto Healing and DEF Up 16% on the lower right of the skill tree. This will make Raymond tankier and be able to soak up damage since he will often be in the enemy’s face.

Determined Princess

Give top priority to learning Determined Princess which increases the experience value of the entire party at the cost of Laeticia suffering a 50% reduction to DEF and GUTS. Trade off, however, is worth it for leveling up fast. Once you learn the skill, do not forget to equip it in your passive skill set.

Perfect Blow

Perfect Blow is a powerful buff skill that temporarily increases ATK and INT by 50% at the cost of 1 AP. This skill is useful for chaining together other active battle skills for high damage output. You can set Perfect Blow to PRESS and use it twice in a row or you set it on HOLD.

INT Up and Fountain of Wisdom

Increasing Albaird’s magic damage should be your next priority as his playstyle lets him attack enemies safely from a distance. Afterwards, get Fountain of Wisdom which temporarily raises his INT by 50% for 10 seconds. Once unlocked, try incorporating Fountain of Wisdom in link combos.

Longer Punishment and Weapons Expert
