Character | Why? |
Gran/Djeet | The main character’s ability to group the enemies is a boon. As they group several enemies, Rackham can destroy them with a powerful ranged attack. |
Ferry | Ferry’s critical hit rate buffs stack up with the critical mechanics of Rackam and the result is a massive burst damage to enemies. |
Anre | Anre has a Break extension skill that enables Rackam to have greater number of openings to unleash his powerful Charged Attacks without getting hit by an enemy while charging. |
Katalina | Katalina’s attack buffs compound with Rackam’s attack buffs to unleash higher damage on enemies. As a support character, she can also draw enemy aggro, keeping Rackam safe to conduct devastating ranged attacks. |
