All W-Engine (Weapon) Guides

Tusks of Fury is the Best for Caesar

Tusks of Fury is undoubtedly Caesar's best W-Engine since it provides Impact, provides Shield value, and can increase the party's DMG and Daze. For other W-Engines, you can anything provides Impact or Energy Regen.

Stun W-Engines

Since Caesar uses Impact for her shields, she can use the Stun W-Engines that have Impact as the main stat. Do note however that Caesar cannot use a Stun W-Engine's effect due to her status as a Defense Agent.

Basic Attack	★★★★☆	Upgrade Caesar's Basic Attack after her Core Skill and Special Attack to simply increase her overall Daze.
Dodge	★☆☆☆☆	While on the field, you will rely on Caesar's Special Attack to defend yourself. This means you don't have to upgrade her Dodge.
Assist	★★★★★	Caesar's Defensive Assist inflicts a massive amount of Daze, so upgrade this along with her Special Attack.
Special Attack	★★★★★	Prioritize Caesar's Special Attack since it increases the Impact buff it provides and it increases the Daze for this Skill.
