character_name Skill Priority
| Skill | Priority | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
 dodge | Can be left for later; she rotates with the other Attack unit, so dodge combos matter little. | |
 assist | Lowest priority; contributes almost nothing to her damage loop and is safe to skip early. | |
 special attack | Needed for EX Special Attack Electric DMG, but not as impactful as top-tier skills. | |
 core skill | Raises the ATK buff and CRIT DMG she and her Vanguard gain, making it a top upgrade. | |
 basic attack | Main damage source; improves her combo and finishers, so max it together with Core Skill. | |
 chain attack | Invest early; upgrading Chain Attack also raises Ultimate, a large chunk of total damage. |
