hikari skill suggestions
Hello! I'm looking for suggestions on what skills to learn right now (at around level 24 on Hikari and 31 on my protagonist).

Right now I am primarily using Blinding Flash, Spearfishing, and Thrash

I want to replace Soporific Slash and Flaming Lure since I don't get much use out of them. Any suggestions?

Leaf Toss is pretty good if you need a clutch, flat damage done. Not sure how it works on caits though, haven't found once since I got it.

Right Hook, Shield Thief, Hornet's Nest, and Level Slash are all very good....granted, you won't be able to get those until you're about lvl 35+.

Thank you both!

Any Hikari skillset must incorporate Vengeful Blade!
It's the perfect parry of Octopath 2.

I agree with you, but iirc Vengeful Blade is in his default skillset/not the Learned Skills which are replaceable.

I’m liking deep analysis.

Take that Scholars!

Upon playing more: Divine Dual Slash > Level Slash...basically does the same thing but hits twice and harder.

Haze Slice hits really hard, looks cool, and drops physical defense. Works very well with Ultimate Stance.

Twin Serpents is one of the best AoE 2-hit spear attacks.

Is there another place to learn Divine Dual Slash? I still have mine but I've only seen it once so far from a story battle.

There's an AOE bow skill that does 4-8 hits that's pretty good.

Not from what I've seen yet.

mhm... Last Gasp is a pretty interesting one. you can setup a 1hp Hikari for those 1v1 challenge and do more than 60k++ damage on first turn with just Last Gasp.
with this you can pretty much go around and beat most of the 1v1 challenge~ pretty gud method as well if you want to farm Battle Tested Weapons later on.

You can by using the same interface as parting ways with your current recruits.
