Overview

Agielba is a Defense character that focuses on taking hits for the party due to both his active and passive skills, and mitigating them with his high defenses and his ability to heal himself. As such, his key role is to protect his party from potentially lethal attacks. He is also capable of defending and attacking at the same time. By taking damage, he can enhance his damage output and retaliate with counter attacks, while using his charge attack can boost his defenses significantly to the point where he can take negligible damage.

How to Play

As a defense character, Agielba functions to take potentially lethal attacks away from the other party members, and does so by timing his skills and, if needed, charge attacks.

Agielba works well against foes with lots of single-target or multi-hit attacks. He is well-suited in fights where enemies can hit him, as to be able to counter attack and make use of his JammedATK is greatly boosted based on how low HP is
 buff to full effect.

He is not recommended in fights where foes only or mostly does party-wide attacks, as SubstituteReceives foe attack in place of an ally
(Excludes all-foe all-ally attacks)
 is rendered moot. He is also not recommended in fights where enemies are constantly afflicted by statuses such as ParalyzedCan't attack
, as this prevents him from taking damage to make full use of his JammedATK is greatly boosted based on how low HP is
 and counter attacks. Although Agielba puts decent damage regardless, a stronger attacker or a better offensive support character may work better in such fights.

Party Position

As a frontliner, Agielba can work well in any position in the party but has lower priority in the second and third positions. With his FortitudeGain SubstituteReceives foe attack in place of an ally

No effect when afflicted by Shorted debuffs or when Charge Bar is above 100%.. These tools allow him to contribute to the party's chain bursts. However, as he does not grant any party-wide buffs on charge attacks, he can easily be replaced by characters, such as Tsubasa or Athena, who can provide those buffs. Conversely, he can fill these positions if using a character with a low charge bar gain, such as Kallen Kouzuki or Shiva, or characters who uses charge bar for their skills, such as Grea or Aliza, who may prefer the fourth position.

Because Agielba's 1st and 3rd skills and his charge attack are also used for tanking, Agielba already deals damage simply by performing his primary function as a tank. However, this also means that he cannot always use them freely, especially when up against enemies with attacks that needs mitigating.

Notable Debuff Interactions

In general, all debuffs should be cleared whenever possible. However, there are certain debuffs that could affect Agielba more or less compared to other characters.

  • Skill SealedCan't use skills

  • C.A. SealedCan't use charge attack

     buff.

Character Synergies

  • Aliza: Aliza has a 2-turn SubstituteReceives foe attack in place of an ally
    (Excludes all-foe all-ally attacks)
     that is mainly used against normal attacks, as Counters on DodgeDodge and counter one-ally attacks
    Counter attacks grant 5% charge bar per hit.     do not work against charge attacks or triggers. With Agielba using his substitutes against triggers, both characters can easily redirect attacks away from squishier party members.
  • Athena: She and Agielba have both synergistic and conflicting abilities with each other:
    • Their ArmoredChance of lowering DMG taken
       status from charge attacks do not stack—Agielba's will always overwrite Athena's, including the duration.
    •  Shield of the Gods: AigisAll allies gain 40% Wind CutWind DMG is cut 40%

       effect allows him to time his skills on charge attacks and triggers more easily.
    • Agielba's SubstituteReceives foe attack in place of an ally

The EMP set makes use of the high HP to take advantage of the JammedATK is greatly boosted based on how low HP is
 status and Enmity-based grids, as a higher max HP makes it more difficult for DrainDamage dealt is partially absorbed to HP
 to heal Agielba back to full health. This build also synergizes well with weapons with HP skills, such as Scimitar of Brahman. Criticals make it recommended for on-element content (fighting against Wind opponents).

Priorities[edit]

Prioritize Criticals, one node at a time, followed by health. If using against non-wind opponents, hold off Criticals until later. Take one star on each Defense node if necessesary. Due to Agielba's Defense from his passive skills, abilities and charge attack, it has a lower priority, but should not be ignored completely. Finally, take Extended Mastery Support Skill. If there are points left, such as using a Perpetuity Ring, either take some points to Wind DMG Lowered, max out Defense, or combine both.

Over Mastery Bonus

Most over mastery bonuses work well with Agielba. Take note of some bonuses, however:

  • Debuff Success is largely useless on Agielba due to his lack of debuffs.
  • Dodge can increase Agielba's tankiness, but also risks reducing his chances of getting hit. This can prevent him from doing a counter attack from his first skill and Extended Mastery Support Skill, and reduce the effectiveness of his second skill.
  • Healing also increases the healing cap of Kagutsuchi's DrainDamage dealt is partially absorbed to HP
    .
