Elemental Mastery / CRIT Rate

Aino's A1 talent allows her Elemental Burst to attack more frequently and have a larger AoE DMG if Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam is active. This requires 2 or more Nod-Krai characters in the party, and Aino herself counts towards this.
To maximize the effect of Aino's A1 talent, ensure that the party composition includes at least 2 Nod-Krai characters, including Aino herself, to activate Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam and enhance her Elemental Burst.
