    works against Catura's need to spam her charge attack and reduce her skills' cooldowns.
  • Without multiattack buffs and/or good charge bar generation, Catura's ability to spam her charge attack and thus her skills is greatly hindered. Her only innate method of boosting her multiattack rate consumes charge bar, which doesn't help her in this regard.

How to Play

  • There is really no way to go wrong by casting Catura's first and second skills off cooldown, which makes her exceptionally powerful in the hands of Full Auto. However, timing the casts can greatly augment the amount of damage your party is able to deal within a single turn.
    • If using 5★ Seofon with Catura, consider using  Cowlick LiftCaster and MC gain Charge Bar +100%Instantly boosts Charge Bar by 100%

Gamewith's recommended EMP build for Catura.

Priorities[edit]

With her great EMP selection, focusing on her damaging performance is a necessity. Take 3★ in Skill DMG Cap first to increase damage from Ability m 1365 1.png Blamboo Shots12-hit, 100% Wind damage to random foes (Damage cap: ~80,000 per hit).
Inflict Status 7042 14.pngBlamboozledDMG taken is supplemented (Can't be removed)
Strength: 1% of foe's max HPBase Accuracy: 120%Duration: 4 turns
on all foes.
(Number of hits and Blamboozled effect specs increased upon each cast [Max: 5 times].)
, followed by 3★ in Wind ATK, 3★ in C.A. DMG, and 3★ in Critical Hit.

Her EMP Support Skill might take very a long time to implement as she is a Zodiac character, so it's recommended to spend EMPs right away instead of waiting her EMP Support Skill to be implemented.
