Tips and Tricks
- Try to make sure you capture as many enemies as possible in Area of Effect attacks like
Scarlet Cyclone and even
Heatwave. Using [Heatwave] to reflect enemy magic is a great way to inflict heavy amounts of damage and add additional time.
- Make sure you’re using all abilities, including
Rising Flames as often as possible, as this maximizes damage and gives you additional time bonuses. Trying to save
Flames of Rebirth can also be detrimental, as you won’t be able to benefit from the time bonuses if you use it less often.
- Try to use
Phoenix Shift on airborne enemies and use
Aerial Attack and
Downthrust to stack up additional time bonuses.
- Don’t forget to use your
Limit Break once the gauges have charged. It’s obviously better to use it against the more powerful enemies at the end of Stage 2 and 3, but if it’s fully charged, you’ll be wasting subsequent attacks, which will no longer charge it.
