How to Promote to Advanced Classes
Lex's Unit | ||
---|---|---|
Sharon (Cleric) |
- |
Lex (Fighter) |
- |
Bruno (Gladiator) |
- |
This unit focuses more on Defense, with both Lex and Bruno acting as damage sponges, while Sharon heals them through both her Active and Passive Skills.
While this unit may seem focused on Defense and Sustain, it also can provide good offense depending on the enemy formation, especially since Bruno can deal high amounts of damage at full health, which can easily be met through Lex's shielding and Sharon's healing.
