Edgar

CosmosCall of the Twisted CityEibon Antique Shop

Edgar is a support healer who can top up the party's HP with his Skill and Ultimate. His healing abilities are stationary: his Skill makes him stand still and his Ultimate creates a fixed area, making it harder to heal against mobile enemies. He excels in Charge team compositions thanks to his passive, which can fully charge an ally's Ultimate.

Build Guide

Strengths

  • Strong sustained healing through channeled Skill and Ultimate domain.
  • Can fully charge ally Ultimates with Gentle Edge passive (120 Ultimate Energy) whenever Charge triggers.
  • Can act as a buffer with Speedy Hedgehog Cartridge or certain Awakenings.

Weaknesses

  • Healing is very stationary; Skill roots him and Ultimate is a fixed area.
  • Vulnerable while channeling Skill.
  • Less effective against mobile bosses and enemies.

Skill Priority

3

Weight of Knowledge (Support Skill)

Upgrading helps damage when switching to Edgar often, but not urgent.

3

Combat Practice (Basic Attack)

Low priority since Edgar doesn't rely on basic attacks.

4

Finnegan's Wake (Ultimate)

Deals large damage and provides healing over time; upgrade after Skill.

5

Wild Current (Skill)

Most of Edgar's healing and damage comes from his Skill; prioritize this first.

How to Play

Edgar is a channeled healer who excels in Charge teams. Hold his Skill to heal the lowest-HP ally, use his Ultimate to place a healing domain, and rely on his passive to instantly charge ally Ultimates when Charge triggers.

Rotations

  1. 1Hold down Skill to damage enemies and heal the lowest-HP ally.
  2. 2Save Ultimate until your Main or Sub-DPS needs healing while on the field.
  3. 3Take advantage of Gentle Edge to fully charge an ally's Ultimate every 30 seconds whenever Charge is triggered.

Tips

  • Hold the Skill button longer for more healing, but be ready to dodge because Edgar is vulnerable while channeling.
  • Use Ultimate to heal while your DPS continues attacking inside the domain.
  • Use Edgar in Charge team compositions to apply Remora and generate Ultimate Energy.
