Being a duo character with a tag-team playstyle, Lu and Ciel do not share mana and also have a special system known as '''Combination'''.
Being a duo character with a tag-team playstyle, Lu and Ciel do not share mana and also have a special system known as '''Combination'''.
*When either Lu or Ciel is tagged out, the inactive character will rapidly recover 6 MP per second (1 MP in PvP). The amount of mana the other character has can be seen in the third blue gauge in the UI.  
*When either Lu or Ciel is tagged out, the inactive character will rapidly recover 20 MP per second (1 MP in PvP). The amount of mana the other character has can be seen in the third blue gauge in the UI.

*To compensate for this, Lu and Ciel's skills are low in damage. This is to encourage players to keep switching between the two in order to maximize damage.

==Combination Gauge==
==Combination Gauge==
Lu and Ciel have a fourth resource known as the '''Combination Gauge'''. This resource is used exclusively for '''Combination Skills''' such as [[Soul Infest]]. '''Combination Skills''' cost no mana, but can only be used when the '''Combination Gauge''' is ready.
Lu and Ciel have a fourth resource known as the '''Combination Gauge'''. This resource is typically only used for specific '''Combination Skills''' such as [[Soul Infest]]. '''Combination Skills''' are general {{SkillType|NT|B}} type skills, and provide various benefits depending on how much Combination Gauge is consumed. For the [[Demersio]] path, Combination skills are categorized as '''Dyad''' Skills.


The '''Combination Gauge''' has room for 10 '''Combination Points'''. '''Combination Points''' are gained every time the player switches characters through a command attack or skill and successfully lands a hit with the attack.
The '''Combination Gauge''' is divided into 10 segments, and gauge is gained every time the player switches characters through a command attack or skill and successfully lands a hit with the attack. Different paths has different passives that help to fill the gauge quicker.

== Tips and Details ==
== Tips and Details ==
*If you switch between characters before a Switching Skill you used has hit any enemies, it will not gain CP unless you switch again afterwards while the skill is still active. For example, casting [[Magdonic Cannon/ModA|[Mod] Magdonic Cannon]] on Lu switches to Ciel. If you then switch to Lu again before the souls hit anything, even through a skill, you will need to switch back to Ciel while the souls are still active to gain CP.
*Although '''Switching''' is a Special Move, it is still counted as a skill that cannot be used during some disabling debuffs like [[Status Effects/Silence|Silence]].
**This issue is very noticeable for summon skills like [[Summon Darkness]] and [[Garden of Haures]].
<br>
 
== Trivia ==
*The term "Combination Points", often written as CP for short by players, is only ever used in the NA server's text for Switching Skills. Every other tooltip, such as Switching Commands or passives, consistently refer to it as "Combination Gauge".

Combination

Being a duo character with a tag-team playstyle, Lu and Ciel do not share mana and also have a special system known as Combination.

  • When either Lu or Ciel is tagged out, the inactive character will rapidly recover 20 MP per second (1 MP in PvP). The amount of mana the other character has can be seen in the third blue gauge in the UI.


Combination Gauge

Lu and Ciel have a fourth resource known as the Combination Gauge. This resource is typically only used for specific Combination Skills such as Soul Infest. Combination Skills are general [Special Active: Bravery] type skills, and provide various benefits depending on how much Combination Gauge is consumed. For the Demersio path, Combination skills are categorized as Dyad Skills.

The Combination Gauge is divided into 10 segments, and gauge is gained every time the player switches characters through a command attack or skill and successfully lands a hit with the attack. Different paths has different passives that help to fill the gauge quicker.

  • Inactive form at 0 gauge

Tips and Details

  • Although Switching is a Special Move, it is still counted as a skill that cannot be used during some disabling debuffs like Silence.


Trivia

  • The term "Combination Points", often written as CP for short by players, is only ever used in the NA server's text for Switching Skills. Every other tooltip, such as Switching Commands or passives, consistently refer to it as "Combination Gauge".
