Pride’s gimmick is healing and buffing, but don’t let that fool you — with the right Vessels, they can put out significant damage with Full-Force Slash, a powerful single-target attack that also triggers Assist Attacks. A useful trick to using Pride is to combine ADE – Physical Booster with some Sleep cures (items or Rebuke) to constantly buff your main character with ATK, DEF, and MOV bonuses. Once full on buffs — don’t forget you can stack up to five levels of the same buff — Resonance with the team to spread them out, and watch as even the toughest enemies fall.
