Recommended Build

Role: Support / Tank

Adler is the best F2P support in Incantation comps. Evil's Bane grants shields and triggers Scorch with no special conditions, while Temperance's random debuffs—most notably +10% Break Efficiency—are uniquely valuable in bossing. Kingdom's Guard amplifies his DEF and Break contribution for extra tanking. Running alongside Baicang and Daffodill covers Incantation+Chaos+Psyche for Scorch and Discord. A staple for players without Sakiri.
