The DioField Chronicle - Best Skills for Each Class

Find out which skills are the absolute best to use for Cavaliers, Soldiers, Sharpshooters, and Magickers in The DioField Chronicle! Read on to see a list of the best skills for each weapon type of each unit class, as well as the best overall skills in the game!

Best Overall Skills

Skill Effect & Reason
DioField Chronicle - Assassination Assassination Best Finisher Skill
Andrias' Assassination is easily his best skill as it bypasses its cooldown when used as a finisher against foes, allowing you to chain the skill should the enemies surrounding you have low enough health.
DioField Chronicle - Wings of the Storm Wings of the Storm Best Crowd Control Skill
Wings of the Storm makes Wyvern Riders worth having in your party as it can help you manage the positioning of enemy units with ease and set up strategies accordingly.
DioField Chronicle - Cyclone Cyclone Best DPS Skill
Having a good base attack power, wide range, and excellent skill upgrades, Cyclone is considered the best DPS skill in the game, giving you another reason why you should have a Wyvern Rider in your team.
DioField Chronicle - Frostbind Frostbind Best Interruption Skill
Frostbind is definitely the best skill to use in order to stop enemies from their tracks and ultimately cancel out their attacks. While there are other skills that can inflict the same effect like Stun, Frostbind inflicts Freeze them instead, which lasts 5 seconds longer than the former.
DioField Chronicle - Sanctuary Sanctuary Best Healing Skill
Considerably the best party-wide healing skill for its high recovery rate, as well as a guaranteed Tenacity buff upon upgrading.
