Overview

  • Gustave’s Overcharge system centers on building charges through attacks, dodges, and parries, culminating in powerful Overdrive attacks that can break enemies and reset charges.
  • Key skills for Gustave include Lumière Assault for quick charge generation, Strike Storm for high single-target damage, and Shatter for enemy breaking and Overcharge resets.
  • The Cruleram weapon, obtained by defeating Goblu in the Flying Waters area, is recommended for its Ice-type damage and scaling with Defence and Luck stats.
  • Strategic Pictos like Energising Start I, Rewarding Mark, and Dead Energy II maximize AP gains, enabling frequent use of Gustave’s most powerful abilities.
  • Guides emphasize early-game setups, including Gustave’s starting sword and gun kit, and integrating party synergies like Critical Burn to amplify Overdrive effects.
