Sphere Recommendations

NOTE: The sphere letters below are hyperlinked to our Sphere Hub which lists all available spheres sorted by effect!
  • A Spheres - Focus on buffing ATK & BRV DMG but avoid ranged/magic ATK type boosts as she has a mixed kit

    • King, Noel, Eight and her own are standout spheres for her and Cyan’s is quite nice as well for some more overflow

  • E Sphere - Most spheres focusing on ATK are great for her, and as for debuff inflicting spheres, really mBRV or DEF Down are the only ones that stand out. We recommend against giving her SPD Down based spheres.

How-To-Play Notes

  • With Cater’s new LD, she now has better options for dealing damage to go along with her dodging capabilities. She still functions the same as before, maintaining her buff to dodge and her Lock on the enemies, but will now use the turns in between refreshing these to use her new HP and BRV variants for higher damage. You will want to alternate between these two when not refreshing buffs to ensure they are at their Max Charge. You should open with Blizzarra ROK to get her Lock started as she starts with all of her buffs

  • Charge Shot can now go between Charged Shot (Charge Lvl 1) and (Charge Shot (Max Charge). Both of these attacks have high turn rate and increased crit damage.

  • Wide Shot also has (Charge Lvl 1) and (Max Charge) variations. Wide Shot has fewer HP dumps but deals AOE BRV damage with HP splash. This also has high turn rate, increased crit damage, and boosts the recast gauge.

  • Never let her Charge & Dodge buff fall off, it’s key to her evasion

  • Her ROK skill is amazing for shaving as well locking enemies onto her persistently. Perhaps avoid using this if the boss is targeting ALL unless shaving is required.

  • Her AA is great for pushing damage through, but also guaranteeing her evasion, but make sure that Charge & Dodge won't fall off while it's up, since you'd waste a turn of perfect evasion! Note that Ice Enchant adds 20% BRV DMG to skills that are already ice element, and this stacks!

  • Note that her counter & Land Mine are magic while her Charged/Wide shot are Ranged, but it really doesn't matter at all. Cater should be hitting weakness at all times after using her EX!
