Felidae Cantus Attacks and Abilities

Fire Pillar

Felidae Cantus can summon a fire pillar that deals damage to characters caught in it. You'll know where a fire pillar is going to erupt by looking for cracks on the floor.

Ground Pound and Path of Fire

Felidae Cantus will occasionally pound the ground and leave a path of fire in its wake. This path of fire will then erupt and can cause damage to your team. Stay away from the path of fire to avoid damage.

Dash and Strike

Most of the time, Felidae Cantus will try to damage your team with his dash and strike. This move causes tons of damage and should be avoided at all costs.

Cinematic attack + Ground Smash

At one point during the battle, Felidae Cantus will perform a cinematic attack where he jumps really high then smashes the ground. This move affects a large area of the battlefield and can one shot your team if not avoided.

Felidae Cantus then loses his armor after performing this cinematic attack.

Teleportation and Speed

Felidae Cantus is very fast and can teleport to your team in a matter of seconds. After teleporting, he will immediately attack your team with a kick or strike.

Keep your eye on him and dodge immediately when you see him teleport.

Eye Mark

Felidae Cantus can mark your pins at any point during the fight. Using a marked pin will make Felidae Cantus counter your attack right away.

On the brighter side, this can also make him vulnerable to all of your other attacks.

Best Pins for Felidae Cantus

Yearlong Ensemble

St. Aestas' Shrapnel Light	St. Autumnus' Strike Light	St. Hiems' Shotgun Light	St. Ver's Uppercut Light

St. Autumnus' Strike, St. Hiems' Shotgun, St. Ver's Uppercut, and St. Aestas' Shrapnel make up the Yearlong Ensemble. When equipped altogether, the Yearlong Ensemble can boost your lifesteal or HP Vampire.

Felidae Cantus can deal tons of damage to your team so it's wise to have pins that do not only deal damage but can also keep you healthy in the long run.

Revivify Ensemble

Let the Rain Fall Down Water	Lightning in My Hands Electric	HOG Healer Light	FANG Defender Light
Kappa Panic Water	Spin Twinz Water

The Revivify Ensemble consists of Hog Healer and Fang Defender. Equipping these two altogether will reduce their reboot time and can help your team stay healthy. Use Hog Healer when you're low on health and trigger Fang Defender when Felidae Cantus is about to launch a strong attack.

Felidae Cantus is weak to water so it's wise to pair these two with pins like Let the Rain Fall Down, Kappa Panic, and Spin Twinz.

x3 Freestyle Launcher

HOG Healer Light	Kappa Panic Water	Freestyle Launcher Ice	Spin Twinz Water

Having x3 Freestyle Launcher did surprisingly well against Felidae Cantus. It can shred his armor from a distance so you can stay relatively healthy.

You can also equip pins with water affinity like Kappa Panic and Spin Twinz to deal more damage to Felidae Cantus. Don't forget to equip Hog Healer too for when you're in a pinch!
