Sphere Recommendations

NOTE: The sphere letters below are hyperlinked to our Sphere Hub which lists all available spheres sorted by effect!
  • A Sphere - He wants BRV or ATK to make those BRV hits count

  • D Sphere - Any ATK boosting (with mBRV is bonus) works. Wakka can also work, but takes a little setup and 3 of his buffs aren't framed.

  • E Sphere - Debuffs often so the usual ATK boosting ones are great, can give him utility spheres if orbs call for them (if orb is lethal)

How-To-Play Notes

These notes are thanks to the work of Renki#4255, who proactively wrote these notes, allowing Cel to edit & add them here.
  • Edgar should open with his LD to gain his new LD buff -Debilitator. This buff allows Edgar to imperil melee, ranged, and magic depending on what type of BRV DMG Edgar deals while his Debilitator buff is up. All of Edgar’s attacks gain the + variation by attacking an enemy with Edgar’s Royal Pressure debuff.

  • Auto Crossbow+ is Edgar’s ranged skill that grants him generic stat boosts and inflicts Royal Pressure to all enemies. This is best for AOE shaving with good HP DMG if supported well.

  • Drill+ is Edgar’s melee skill that grants another generic stat boost and also applies Royal Pressure to all enemies along with 2 generic debuffs. This is a single target BRV shave and the DEF down can help allies hit harder too.

  • Chainsaw is Edgar’s fast charging EX, taking 2 skill uses for each charge. This grants Machinery to Edgar along with debuffing the enemy with Royal Pressure. Machinery grants numerous stat boosts to Edgar. Royal Pressure has sap and raises the BRV damage taken by the enemy.

  • Edgar’s LD grants 2 uses of his special HP attack and grants a new buff to Edgar. This buff allows Edgar to inflict a new debuff on the enemy with each BRV attack. This debuff imperils the enemy for whatever damage type Edgar last used on it.

  • Bioblaster+ is Edgar’s new HP variation. This ignores defense and also boosts the EX gauge while inflicting Royal Pressure and Poison on the enemies. It does less BRV DMG, but has potential to match S1+ HP DMG!

  • All of Edgar's skills deal Weakness DMG to machine type enemies and all his enhanced skills ignore DEF.
