You field three of the six expeditioners at a time. The strongest comps pair a reliable AP battery with a burst dealer and a support who keeps the Gradient flowing — and always keep an answer for a mistimed parry.
Reliable line-ups
⚖️ Balanced core
Gustave for steady damage and Overcharge, Lune for elemental Stains and healing, Maelle for stance burst. Handles almost anything.
💥 Burst & break
Maelle in Virtuose, Sciel for Foretell setups, Verso to accelerate the Gradient — melts staggered bosses.
🌀 Control
Lune (Stains), Sciel (Twilight/Foretell) and Monoco for flexibility — status pressure and safety for long fights.
Building a comp
- Always bring one character who generates AP quickly to fuel the others.
- Match Pictos/Luminas to the comp — free-aim and parry builds want different Luminas.
- Keep at least one reliable heal or revive so a mistimed parry isn't fatal.
- Cover the fight's element between your three picks so nobody is dead weight.
Flexing per fight
- Swap a member at an Expedition Flag to cover the boss's element or bring a healer.
- Against long fights favour sustain and status; against fragile bosses favour burst.
- Keep one reliable AP battery so your burst characters never run dry.
- Re-tune Luminas alongside the swap so the new trio's passives line up.
