Main stats
Use the slot recommendations to make your first functional setup. When several stats are listed, choose the one that fills the gap in your current team rather than mixing every option.

Skill priority
Follow the skill order below for your next upgrade. Compare one rank at a time, and keep the same team and enemy so equipment changes do not hide the result.
Skills priority:
Skill >>> Ultimate > Talent > Basic
Major Traces priority:
Projection Magecraft (A2) > Guardian (A6) > Hero of Justice (A4)
Team examples
A lineup is a starting point: check that each teammate is available and that your team can repeat its resource cycle. Replacing a unit also changes buff timing and defensive coverage.
Test your setup
Balance critical rate with critical damage. A large damage number is less useful when critical hits are inconsistent; evaluate the complete setup rather than a single item.
Choose one option, run the same encounter twice, and change one variable. Record whether the next rotation starts on time and whether the team survives without losing its damage window.
