Grace Howard Skill Priority
| Skill | Priority | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Grace's Core Skill increases her Electric Anomaly Buildup, which is crucial for inflicting Shock on enemies. It also provides a significant boost to her damage output when combined with her Special Attacks. | ||
| Grace's Special Attacks are her primary damage dealers and should be leveled up to maximize her Electric Anomaly Buildup and Shock DMG output. | ||
| Chain Attack deals a decent amount of AoE DMG but is less important than Grace's Core Skill and Special Attacks. Level it up after prioritizing the other skills. | ||
| Upgrading Grace's Basic Attack is not essential as most of her damage comes from the Shock status inflicted by her Core Skill and Special Attacks. | ||
| Dodge is not a primary focus for Grace as her damage relies on her Shock-inflicting abilities. | ||
| Grace's Assist primarily focuses on dealing damage, which is less important compared to maximizing her Anomaly Buildup and Shock DMG. |
