Advanced Tips on the Apothecary Mantle

Useful for Fast Hitting Weapons

Weapons like the Dual Blades, Sword and Shield can easily abuse the Apothecary Mantle to quickly inflict status ailments. This can be used together with Blast weapons to inflict massive damage to enemies in a short span of time.

It Can Also Be Used Together With the Dragonator

In stages like the Seliana Defense missions and the Arena, swapping to a sleep weapon and immediately using the Apothecary Mantle can allow you to make a monster sleep rather quickly. This can allow for a potential double damage from mechanisms like the Dragonator due to the bonus damage inflicted to sleeping monsters.
