Antal
Aendgame support
support electric heat
Electric Support who empowers teammates by increasing Electric and Heat damage through debuffs and amplifiers. Antal applies long-lasting susceptibility and sustained team buffs that significantly boost elemental DPS windows, making him an excellent enabler for Electric/Heat heavy lineups.
A late-game support build that revolves around 100% uptime team buffs and maximal Elemental Amplification. Antal remains in the backline, repeatedly applying Susceptibility and triggering Ultimate on cooldown to blanket allies with Electric and Heat bonuses. The set and weapon choices ensure every cast, reload or manual action feeds straight into more Ultimate gauge for uninterrupted buff streams.
Insights
Core Mechanics
- His Battle Skill instantly stacks Electric Susceptibility and Heat Susceptibility on all struck foes.
- Casting the Ultimate grants all allies a flat Electric Amp and Heat Amp that lasts the entire fight while Antal remains on field.
- Each subsequent Combo Skill triggers additional Physical Status Infliction or Arts Infliction, further increasing party damage.
Scaling
- Ultimate’s elemental buffs scale with the number of allies using Heavy Damage, rising sharply in mid-to-late-game rosters.
- Talent healing scales off the triggering attacker’s Strength, making Antal stronger when paired with high-STR carries.
Team Role
Antal is a pure support who sits in the backline amplifying damage rather than dealing it. He shines most in Electric or Heat-centric teams that can exploit his susceptibility and amp stacking. Position him to fire his Ultimate before major damage phases so DPS units enjoy the largest possible buff window.

Explanation
Obj Arts Identifier is chosen for unrivaled pursuit generation, letting Antal upkeep continuous susceptibility layers.
Eternal Xiranite doubles down on Antal’s support identity by directly amplifying team DPS every time he applies debuffs.
If Obj Arts Identifier is unavailable, Hypernova Auto trades some support output for faster animation cycles while Jiminy 12 offers raw pursuit uptime with lower stats.
Notes
- The Eternal Xiranite 4-piece increases allied damage by 16% when foes are under Susceptibility—Antal’s core mechanic.
- Armor and Core pieces enhance Ultimate Gain so buffs remain nearly 100% uptime.
- Gloves provide extra Arts Intensity increasing the potency of Antal’s debuffs.
