Ability Changes Based on Enemy Type

Certain abilities are better against certain enemy types, and you may gain powered-up versions of support abilities by choosing your partner based on the enemy’s combat type. No one has special properties against Boss-type foes.

Vs. Power-Type Foes

Jude: Gets knocked down a lot, so Restore triggers more. Restore cures more HP against these foes.

Alvin: Power foes block more, so Breaker is better.

Gaius: Power foes block more, so Chivalry is better.

Vs. Speed-Type Foes

Milla: Bind is more useful against fast foes. Odds of success increase.

Elize: Teepo Drain triggers more.

Vs. Magic-Type Foes

Rowen: Use more magic so Auto Magic Guard is better.

Leia: Higher chances of stealing rare items.

Muzét: Support Warp useful for avoiding area-effect artes.
