Phoenix & Garuda Focus
In the early game, your primary Eikons will be Phoenix and Garuda. Focus on upgrading 'Rising Flame' and 'Gouge'.
- Phoenix Shift: Excellent for closing gaps and dodging.
- Rising Flame: Good for launching enemies and dealing burst damage.
- Deadly Embrace: Crucial for pulling smaller enemies and interrupting larger ones.
- Gouge: Rapid hits that quickly build the stagger gauge.
Strategy: Use Phoenix Shift to engage, chain sword combos, then use Gouge to build stagger. Finish with Rising Flame for damage. Deadly Embrace is your go-to for crowd control or interrupting dangerous attacks.
