How to Use Wheels

Upgrade Attacks When Catching

What's unique about the Wheels is how you can upgrade attacks when you catch thrown Wheels. You will need to calculate a bit however, as the timing for catching thrown wheels can vary, thus affecting whether or not you can gain the upper hand in battles.

Use Strong Attacks

It's recommended to open engagements with a Strong attack. Primarily, the Wheels's bread and butter is the Upgraded evading attack, which requires Wheels proficiency to be atleast Level 5. Until then, you can keep using normal strong attacks.

Use Wheels Battle Arts for Enemy Officers

Upgraded attacks can be a bit trickier to land on enemy officers, especially if they have full Fortitude. To work around this, open fights with either an evading strong attack or a well-placed strong attack to build Musou. With enough gauge, batter officers down with Battle Arts.

Wheels Recommended Combos

Upgraded Heavy Attack

Input Description
PS5 - Triangle Button the moment you recover it
XBOX - Y Button the moment you recover it
Right Click the moment you recover it
[Upgrade] Unleash more wheels.

Hitting a Heavy attack when you catch returning Wheels upgrades it into a strong AoE attack, clearing fodder around the Wanderer when surrounded.

Upgraded Evade Attack Input

Input Description
PS4 -  Left Stick + PS5 - Triangle Button at the moment of recovery while PS4 - R2 Button evading
XBOX - Left Stick + XBOX - Y Button at the moment of recovery while XBOX - Right Trigger evading
W ButtonA ButtonS ButtonD Button + Right Click at the moment of recovery while Space Button evading
[Upgrade] The wheels spin around you.

Much like upgraded Heavy attacks, catching wheels when they return and performing an evade will give you auto-circling wheels for a limited time, allowing for extra hits and freedom to do other things.
