To unleash the full versatility of Gran or Djeeta, also known as the Captain in Granblue Fantasy Relink, you can keep switching up their builds. You can change this leading character’s build based on the composition of the rest of your party and the nature of your upcoming quest.
Here are some of the best Captain builds in Granblue Fantasy Relink.
Support Captain Build
The Captain is undoubtedly one of the best healers and support characters in Relink. While you will start your journey in the game with Gran or Djeeta as your main character, you will quickly see they are best utilized in a support position.

DPS Heavy Captain Build
DPS Heavy build is geared towards maximizing the amount of damage dealt by the Captain. Both Albacore Blade and Sword of Eos are excellent choices for this build. Albacore Blade will grant you increased attack power, while Sword of Eos will boost your critical hit rate.
This build allows the Captain to deal heavy-hitting blows on enemies with minimal downtime. A great way to demolish your enemies is by strategically using your skills. You can spam your enemies with Rage and Armor Break to build up your Arts Level. Once the meter is full, you can unleash the Decimate and watch the enemies unfortunate enough to be in the vicinity of this devastating slasher attack chopped up and destroyed.

Note: Equip Combo Booster sigil only if you are planning on using Albacore Blade for this build. If you are opting for Sword of Eos, I recommend using Critical Rate sigil.
Tank Captain Build
Tank build for Captain is aimed at making your leading character as powerful and defense-heavy as possible. Using complimentary skills and sigils to serve this purpose, this build will allow you to ensure that your foes cannot deal extensive damage to you or your party.
