character_name Skill Priority
| Skill | Priority | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
 basic attack | A Support rotation is mostly Fly the Flag, not Basic Attack strings—leave this low. | |
 dodge | EX Special Attack already grants extra anti-interrupt and 40% DMG reduction, so extra Dodge damage isn't needed. | |
 assist | Assists mostly scale damage, not utility; the Assist low priority. | |
 chain attack | Chain Attack and Ultimate can burst and add Fly the Flag, so spend extras here after core EX skills. | |
 core skill | Core Skill raises the ATK buff transferred to allies, so it should be kept near max whenever resources allow. | |
 special attack | EX builds Vortex and triggers Fly the Flag, feeding the ATK buff loop. Invest here first. |
