Best Arts for Alexa

※ Hover over the arts and skills to see their names and effects

Arts
(Left)
Raijin Icon Arcing Horn Icon Hair Trigger Icon Trident Buster Icon
Arts
(Right)
Furious Blast Icon Assault Hammer Icon Overwhelm Icon Maximum Voltage Icon

Most of her arts are melee-based and associated with the Electric attribute, making her good to pair with an electric-type Javelin. Using Arcing Horn deals electric damage and also inflicts enemies with Electric Resistance down, which can be followed by Hair Trigger for Supercharge, then Trident Buster to deal massive amounts of electric damage.

Three of her Arts require TP, so having Furious Blast can be helpful in restoring TP. Though, this can be swapped with Spiral Horn since you'll mostly have your melee weapon equipped for auto-attacks, disabling the secondary cooldown for Furious Blast.

Maximum Voltage is a high risk, high reward Art to include, as losing your Skell in battle will boost its damage by up to 800%!

17 Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition SynchronySynchrony Boosts Skell melee, ranged attack and accuracy, potential, evasion

Alexa has access to two Skills that boosts her max HP, making her a tough character! Electric Boost is a must-have, as most of her Arts synergize with it, increasing her electric damage.

Synchrony is also a good skill to have, as it boosts all basic stats of her Skell by up to 12%! You can swap out Steel Flesh for Synchrony, as Fortified Flesh provides a greater HP boost than Steel Flesh.

Best Role During Combat

Electric Damage Dealer and Skell Pilot

Xenoblade Chronicles X Alexa and Skell

Alexa is a great electric-type damage dealer due to her access to Arts and Skills that boost and deal electric damage. She's also quite durable thanks to Steel Flesh and Foritifed Flesh. Activating Raijin allows her to restore HP when using Arts, further increasing her survivability.

Her access to Synchrony makes her a good character to have once you've unlocked Skells, as this skill enhances her Skell's stats, making it more efficient during combat.
