As a new professor, managing your time at Garreg Mach is crucial. Prioritize your activities during free days: explore the monastery to find items and engage with students, participate in faculty training to improve your own skills, and most importantly, instruct your students. Focus on their strengths and desired class paths to maximize their growth. eat meals with students to boost their motivation and support levels.
In combat, always consider the weapon triangle (swords beat axes, axes beat lances, lances beat swords) and terrain effects. Utilize gambits for powerful area-of-effect attacks and stat buffs. Pay attention to enemy attack ranges and plan your movements carefully. Don't be afraid to use the Divine Pulse feature to rewind turns if you make a mistake, especially on higher difficulties. Saving regularly is also a good habit.
