Bloodhound's Step Tips

Bloodhound's Step Covers More Ground Than Rolls

Bloodhound's Step goes one and a half times farther than rolling with Medium equipment load. The skill also covers half as much more ground than rolling with Light equipment load.

Watch FP While Using Bloodhound's Step

In battle, you might end up using Bloodhound's Step too often and lose track of your FP consumption. The skill itself costs 5 FP.

If you try using it while out of FP, you will act as if you are using the Quickstep Skill. Be careful as your attempt to get behind an enemy might end up wih you sidestepping instead, leaving you open to attack.

If you find yourself relying on this skill a lot, you can use the Carian Filigreed Crest to lessen the FP cost.
