Katress's Partner Skill is Grimoire Collector. This is useful for farming drops from Neutral-type Pals, but it needs to be your active Pal.

As for its Work Suitabilities, it has three very useful ones in Handiwork, Medicine and Transporting. Just make sure that it has something to craft or items to transport or else it'll sit around not doing anything.

Katress Best Passive Skills

Artisan	Serious
Swift	Runner

These four passives are used to give Katress a good balance between quickly crafting and Transporting items.

Artisan and Serious are used to give it a +70% Work Speed boost, helping it quickly finish a task so it can move on to the next one.

Swift and Runner will give it a +50% Movement Speed boost so that it can swiftly store items.

Alternatively, you could also use Lucky and Legend to give Katress a +35% Attack boost at the cost of slightly lower Work Speed and Movespeed boosts respectively.

Pass Down Skills Through Breeding

Parent 1		Parent 2		Child
Penking	＋	Celaray	＝	Katress
Cinnamoth	＋	Dumud	＝	Katress
Melpaca	＋	Grintale	＝	Katress

Some skills are exclusive to certain Pals, making the only way to get it on Katress is to pass it down via breeding.

Listed above are some of our recommended breeding combinations, but if you'd like to use different Pals to breed for a Katress, then check out our Breeding Calculator linked below.

Katress Best Active Skills

Nightmare Ball	The strongest attack that Katress naturally learns.
Shadow Burst	Another Dark-type attack that hits enemies in an area around Katress.
Flare Arrow	A Fire-type attack in case the enemies resist its Dark-type attacks.

Do note that if you have raids turned off in the world settings, then active skills don't matter for Katress's best base build.
