Practice with Enemies in the World

Plan strategies based on the enemies' behavior and elemental weakness in the world before challenging them in the aerie, as enemies in the world have identical attack patterns and weaknesses to the enemies in the aeries.

Enemies inside the aeries are weak to the element opposite of the aerie they are in. Adjust your abilities, classes, and vessels accordingly before challenging an aerie.
