| Desc. | Encore is one of the best Main DPS units in the game, though she's a bit tougher to use compared to other top-tier units considering her slightly lower survivability and difficulty in parrying. Nevertheless, her kit is fantastic for bursting down enemies. She becomes an entirely different unit once her Resonance Liberation is activated, which changes her basic attacks to melee and makes parrying way easier. To unleash her full potential, you must use swap cancels whenever she executes her special Heavy Attacks that take several seconds to activate. | |
