Unlocking Abilities: Required Conditions
Recommended Strategies
Queen is an excellent support character, but she’s also a fairly capable close-combat fighter. She may lack the power and range offered by some other melee specialists, but she has good mobility and relatively fast combos.
Equipped with abilities like Divine Judgment and Magic Martyr, Queen can focus almost entirely on supporting her allies. Speedrush and Mana Sphere can be equipped when party support is less of a concern. It’s also worth noting that Queen is a proficient magic user, so equipping an offensive spell can also be useful. Before a mission, consider which role you’d like Queen to fill and choose the appropriate abilities.
Queen has a relatively low Attack rating, but adding finishing magic to her melee combos can help boost her potential damage.

Queen is a great support character, so unlock and upgrade abilities that will benefit her allies. Her evasion-focused abilities can be unlocked fairly early in the game, so make sure you acquire all of them before investing AP in her offensive commands and damage-related upgrades.
Unlock Divine Judgment: HP Up right away to improve Queen’s group healing. Next, unlock Twinspell to gain access to Queen’s Magic Martyr abilities. Unlock Magic Martyr, Flinchproof Martyr, and Magic Martyr: Effect Up to further enhance Queen’s support capabilities.
Balestra Lunge II is a prerequisite for many of Queen’s essential abilities, so make sure you unlock it early in the game. Purchase Accelerate, Triple Slip, Slipstream, and Untouchable as AP becomes available.
Unlock Riposte Slash II to enhance another of Queen’s core melee attacks, then purchase Speedrush and Speedrush: AG Down. Speedrush allows Queen to teleport directly to her target, which can be very helpful during hectic battles.
Purchase Quick Draw, Feint Spell, and Quick Draw II to increase Queen’s damage output with finishing magic, then unlock her remaining abilities and upgrades as AP becomes available.
Combat Tips: QueenQueen is an excellent support character, but she’s also a capable melee fighter. During battle, monitor your allies’ status and use Queen’s abilities to replenish your party’s HP and MP as needed.
Divine Judgment is a great way for Queen to keep nearby allies healthy, and it also deals a fair amount of damage to nearby enemies. This versatility makes it a good choice for virtually any mission.
Queen is a proficient spell caster, so equipping offensive magic can help boost her damage output over the course of a mission. Combining a spell like Thunder SHG with Queen’s Magic Martyr ability helps ensure that she’s able to deal magic damage for the duration of a mission. The HP lost during Magic Martyr can be easily replenished with items or healing spells.
Queen’s Speedrush allows her to dash toward a target, so it’s particularly useful when you want to launch a surprise attack. However, it can also be used to escape from dangerous situations—just lock on to an available target to dart away from an incoming attack. Speedrush does have a limited range, however, so choose your targets wisely. As a melee fighter, Queen specializes in quick, short-range combos. These combos become a bit more effective once you’ve unlocked and upgraded abilities that grant finishing magic. Still, it’s often best to dodge clear of incoming attacks before Queen completes a combo. During hectic fights, try peppering enemies with quick strikes while keeping Queen healthy.
