Adel Best Skills and Tactics Loadout

Priority	Action and Recommended Conditions	Explanation
1	Wild Rush ┗ Infantry Enemies Present	Since Cavalry Units are extremely strong against Infantries, having this active skill prioritized when there are Infantry enemies present can stagger their numbers immediately.
2	Assaulting Lance ┗ Lowest HP	Set Assaulting Lance to Lowest HP and increase the chances of Adel defeating the enemy to gain another point of AP.
3	Cavalier Call	Cavalier Call does not need conditions to work effectively. You can leave it blank, and Adel will stack its effects as long as he has PP.
4	Quick Guard ┗ Attacked by Flying	Cavalry Units are typically weak against flying enemies. Have this priority ready when there are flying enemies present in the opponent's team.
5	Quick Guard ┗ -	Keeping this as blank will make Adel block any attack with Quick Guard, should there be no Flying enemies in the enemy party.

Our recommended Skills and Tactics loadout is intended for general use. When battling against an enemy unit with specific conditions, we recommend making an additional Tactic Template that fits best for a certain scenario.

Adel Best Team Formations

Lord, Knight, and Soldier Unit

Adel's Unit
Adel (Knight)	-	Chloe (Soldier)
-	Alain (Lord)	-

Having a fighter, a tank, and a healer is the optimal go-to formation for Adel.

Maximizing damage is achieved by ensuring that all unit members possess formidable ATK. While Alain provides solid defense with his high DEF and Noble Guard passive in the frontline, Chloe supports the party by providing healing assistance with her First Aid.

Anti Infantry Unit

Adel's Unit
Clive (Knight)	-	Adel (Knight)
-	Josef (Paladin)	-

Should the quest you partake be lined up by Infantry Class enemies. This is a solid team to utilize, having every member strong against Soldiers, Warriors, Housecarls, and Gladiators fought in the early game.

Josef can deal with being in the frontline as he has the highest DEF among the party, backed up by Holy Guard and Holy Barrier and most importantly his Heal, making the unit have a healer as well.
