Tales of Xillia 2 Guide 2 Characters Alvin Vint Svent

Character Evolution

Hone Alvin’s Offensive Strength

To raise Alvin’s Physical Attack stat, grab skills like Strength and Attack Conversion as quickly as possible. Next, focus on skills that further boost his damage or increase his odds of scoring critical hits. Add in skills that augment his Charge ability to make his strikes utterly devastating to your foes.

Suggested Growth Plan

Development chart

Learn Artes of Each Damage Type

Alvin only knows three artes when he joins the party, so expanding his repertoire to include artes of each damage type is your first priority. Pick up the Strength skill along the way.

Tornado Drive

Sonic Thrust

Demon Whip

Variable Trigger

Punishing Shot

Terra Rupture

Focus on Charging-Related Skills

At first, Alvin is only able to hold a single charge, so increasing his capacity with the Charge Plus skill should be your next priority. Afterwards, pick up other skills that strengthen his Charge ability.

Blunt Force

Critical

Charge Breaker

Charge Plus

Mind Charge

Disorienting Strike

Improve Alvin’s Combat Performance

While learning Charge Plus 2 to further increase Alvin’s charging capacity, continue to prioritize skills that increase his critical hit rate. Make sure you don’t miss Attack Conversion, which will dramatically increase his Physical Attack.

Learn Speed Charge as Soon as Possible

Your top priority at this point is the Speed Charge skill, which reduces the amount of time required to charge. While you’re at it, pick up the final handful of Charge skills to achieve Alvin’s ultimate battlefield potential.
