Tita's Cannons
Tita Russell, the prodigious young inventor, brings a unique ranged combat style to your party in The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC, primarily through her trusty cannons. These weapons allow Tita to engage enemies from a safe distance, providing consistent damage and support without putting herself in immediate danger. Her cannons are characterized by their ability to deal area-of-effect damage and often possess elemental properties, making her a versatile asset in various combat scenarios.
When selecting a cannon for Tita, consider its base attack power, but also pay close attention to its elemental affinity. Many of Tita's crafts and arts will benefit from a cannon that matches the element she's focusing on, amplifying her damage output. For instance, if you're utilizing her fire-based crafts, a cannon with a fire bonus will be highly effective.
Early in the game, you might start with simpler cannons. As you progress, you'll find more advanced models. The Iron Cannon is a solid early choice, offering decent power. Later, you might encounter cannons like the Thunder Cannon, which could provide an electrical element, or the Aqua Cannon, offering water-based attacks. These elemental bonuses can be crucial for exploiting enemy weaknesses.
Beyond raw damage and elemental properties, some cannons might offer secondary benefits like increased range or a higher chance to inflict status effects. While Tita's primary role is often damage dealing, any boost to her accuracy or a slight increase in her EP (which fuels her crafts) can also be beneficial. Always check the weapon shops in towns like Grancel or Rolent for the latest cannon upgrades. experiment with different cannons to see how they synergize with Tita's specific crafts and your overall party strategy.
