R.B. Sous-chef

At a Glance

A support with weak clashes that prefers unopposed attacks, applying Paralyze and Bind to help allies clash. In dungeons, Culinary Aid's bench healing is his main attraction.

Core Mechanics

• Helping allies' Clashes with Paralyze: S1 Keep It Fresh inflicts 1 Paralyze with Coin Ⅰ (plus 1 Paralyze next turn if the target has Bleed), and S3 Butcher Viand inflicts 1 Paralyze each with Coins Ⅱ and Ⅲ. Paralyze fixes the Coin Power of that many Coins to 0 for 1 turn.
• Low Clash Power: S1 is 4–8 and S3 is 5–9. S2 You Fresh Enough? is 6–14 and gains +3 Coin Power if he is at least 3 faster than the target.
• Bleed and Bind: Coin Ⅰ of S2 adds +2 Bleed Count and 2 Bind next turn (1 each at lower Uptie). Coin Ⅱ of S1 and Coin Ⅰ of S3 inflict 1 Bleed. S1 deals +30% damage if the target has at least 4 Bind, S3 gains +1 Coin Power if the target has at least 10 Bleed Count, and Coin Ⅳ of S3 heals HP in proportion to the target's Bleed (up to 20%).
• Support passive — Culinary Aid (5 Lust Owned; unlocked at Uptie Ⅲ): While in the team but not participating in battle, heals 5 HP to the 1 ally with the lowest HP at Combat Start. It also adds +5 to the healing of Ryōshū's R.B. Chef de Cuisine passive Rustle Up.
• Combat passive — Packed Pies (4 Lust Owned; unlocked at Uptie Ⅱ): Heals 8 of his own HP at Combat Start.

How to Use

Leave Clashes to allies, and land one-sided attacks with S1 and S3 on free enemies to apply Paralyze and tilt the next Clashes in your favor. When a Clash is unavoidable, use S2. Rather than Clashing with S1, it is better to hold out with Guard (Clash Power up to 16). S3's 10-Bleed-Count condition is hard to meet without support from allies who inflict Bleed Count. In long dungeons, keeping him out of battle as a healer through Culinary Aid is also a strong option.

  Suddenly, One Day: His S1 is Lust, supplying the required Lust. He also inflicts Bleed, meshing with randomly inflicted Bleed.
