How to Play Trailblazer (Fire) - Gameplay Tips

| Trace | Priority & Explanation |
|---|---|
| Basic Attack | ★★☆☆☆ - Low Priority Trailblazer (Fire)'s Basic ATK is usually only used when the enhanced version is up. |
| Skill | ★★★★☆ - High Priority Bread and butter skill that provides Taunt, Shields, and DMG reduction for 1 SP is a great value. |
| Ultimate | ★★★☆☆ - Medium Priority AoE DMG on all enemies that enhances Basic ATK for free without using up Magma Will stacks |
| Talent | ★★★★★ - Highest Priority Improves shields provided with DEF-scaling. |
Trailblazer (Fire)'s Recommended Eidolons
| Why We Recommend It | |
|---|---|
| E1 | ★★★★★ - Great Adds DEF-scaling to Basic ATK and Trailblazer (Fire) likes building DEF. |
| E2 | ★★★★☆ - Good Small boost to shields is welcome. |
| E4 | ★★★☆☆ - Decent Not a necessity since Trailblazer (Fire) would likely start combat with Skill. |

Taunt Opponents to Attack Trailblazer
Use Trailblazer's Skill to taunt enemies into attacking them. When they are attacked they will gain stacks of Magma Will and give the entire party a shield.
Through their A2 Passive, allies will also receive a 15% damage reduction upon using the Trailblazer's Skill.
Stack Magma Will to Enhance Basic Attacks
By consuming stacks of Magma Will, the Trailblazer can do an enhanced version of their Basic Attack that can do splash damage to adjacent enemies. This is only made better by their first Eidolon which gives their enhanced basic attack additional damage based on their DEF.
This Enhanced Basic Attack will deal increased damage to enemies and on Toughness Bars, all while recovering a Skill Point for the Entire Party.
Use Ultimate For an Enhanced Basic Attack
Trailblazer's Ultimate scales off of their ATK and DEF. This will deal huge damage on an AoE. This will also give them a free Enhanced Basic Attack for no cost.
Use Technique To Get a Shield
Use their Technique before a fight to gain a shield. With their A6 Passive, whenever the Trailblazer is protected by a shield, they get an ATK boost and regenerate Energy.
