Unlocking Abilities: Required Conditions

Recommended Strategies

Seven is able to alter the range of her melee strikes. She’s adept in Fire Magic and Ice Magic, but she rates fairly low in Lightning Magic. With her Elementalash ability, however, she can imbue her weapon with various bursts of elemental power. Her more elaborate techniques tend to leave her fairly vulnerable, but Seven’s normal attacks are capable of dealing fast, reliable damage.

With abilities like Snakebite, Diving Strike, and Sadistic Spikes, Seven can be used to fill a variety of roles, and choosing the best skills for a given mission can be a challenge. At her core, however, Seven is still a melee fighter. Her normal attack, Foreflay, and Whirlwhip can be used at any time to deal damage and replenish her AG.

Once Insult to Injury is unlocked, Seven is particularly effective against stunned enemies. Consider selecting allies with Stun-inflicting abilities to maximize her damage output over the course of a mission.

Seven’s various abilities have a significant effect on her fighting style. Your personal preferences and mission parameters will determine exactly which skills are most useful in battle, so acquire and test her various command abilities as they become available. Before each mission, consider which role you’d like Seven to fill, then equip the abilities that are likely to be most helpful.

Snakebite: AG Down and Livewire both enhance Seven’s Snakebite ability. Unlock these abilities to allow for more frequent use of Snakebite, and to gain the option of electrocuting ensnared enemies.

Elementalash and its upgrades Frostlash and Thunderlash all become available at Level 10. This combination of skills allows Seven to better exploit elemental weaknesses found in some enemies. Elementalash abilities will quickly drain Seven’s AG, however, so it’s best to use them sparingly. Avoid investing in additional Elementalash upgrades until you’ve unlocked some of Seven’s less situational abilities.

Triple Slip, Slipstream, and Untouchable all become available at Level 15. Unlock all of these abilities to enhance Seven’s dodge, then invest in Diving Strike to add a true ranged attack to her arsenal. When equipped, Diving Strike allows Seven to launch mortar-like attacks at distant targets.

When combined, Sadistic Spikes, Sadistic Spikes: Time Up, and Sadistic Spikes: AG Down create one of Seven’s most useful support abilities. This command ability creates a large cluster of Stop-inducing spikes, so proper use can severely limit enemy movements in confined spaces.

At Level 25, upgrade Seven’s Foreflay and Whirlwhip, then unlock Insult to Injury. This ensures that Seven is capable of dealing maximum damage regardless of which command abilities you choose to bring into a specific mission.

Combat Tips: Seven

Seven’s attacks vary in range, power, and bonus effects, so her combat style is surprisingly flexible. In general, however, she’s a mid-range melee expert. Abilities like Elementalash and Diving Strike make her a force on the battlefield, while Drainlash and Osmoselash can make her one of the most self-sufficient members of Class Zero.

Many of Seven’s more powerful attacks can quickly deplete her AG. For basic combat, it’s usually best to rely on a mixture of normal attacks and Foreflay. This allows Seven to deal consistent short-range and medium-range damage.

Seven is gifted in most magic types, and her Ice Magic proficiency is the second highest in Class Zero. Equipping Osmoselash along with a spell like Blizzard BOM can make Seven a formidable magic user during prolonged battles.

Snakebite is a great way to strike distant enemies when they are vulnerable to Killsight attacks. Under normal conditions, a successful Snakebite offers multiple follow-up moves. Once you’ve latched on to an enemy, your options will be determined by enemy type, unlocked abilities, and available AG.
