Unlocking Abilities: Required Conditions

Recommended Strategies

Sice absorbs malice from her defeated enemies, increasing her power and allowing the use of certain abilities. Taking damage drains stored malice, so it’s important to weigh apparent risks against potential rewards in any skirmish.

With her short-range weapon and high attack speed, Sice favors a fairly aggressive fighting style. Still, avoiding incoming damage is an important part of a winning strategy. Mastering the fundamentals of Sice’s close-quarters combat is the best way to ensure her effectiveness in battle.

Sice is proficient in Lightning Magic, but her max MP is relatively low. If you opt for offensive magic use, plan on using party members or equipped items to replenish spent MP.

Sice’s ability to absorb malice is an important element of her combat style. Because malice is lost when Sice takes damage, unlock her evasion-focused abilities as quickly as possible. Upgrade her default Moxie ability for higher levels of malice absorption, then unlock and upgrade Negative Aura. Once you’ve accomplished this, experiment with Sice’s other abilities to find combinations that match your play style.

Unlock Accelerate right away, but postpone spending additional AP until Sice reaches Level 14. Unlock Moxie: Power Up to increase the amount of malice Sice can store, then unlock her remaining evasion-focused moves to help ensure that Sice can retain the malice she drains from her enemies.

At Level 22, unlock Moxie: Power Up II, then acquire and upgrade Negative Aura. A fully upgraded Negative Aura deals significant damage to nearby enemies while replenishing Sice’s HP.

At Level 28, unlock Tenacity to reduce the amount of malice Sice loses from taking damage. Once you’ve done this, unlock her remaining abilities as AP becomes available.

Combat Tips: Sice

Sice’s malice absorption makes her a challenging character to master, but her various abilities allow for surprising versatility on the battlefield.

Negative Aura, Negative Aura: +Drain, and Negative Aura: AG Down is a powerful combination. With its significant area damage and restorative effect, a fully upgraded Negative Aura is one of Sice’s most useful abilities.

Sice’s current stored malice is indicated by her weapon’s aura. With maximum malice, her scythe is covered in a red glow with a faint black pulse along the blade.
