Abilities & Strategy

Overview

Frida empowers herself with various seals, and releases those seals to improve her allies whenever she reaches 100 Energy. Additionally, Frida and her allies work to reduce the size of the battlefield for their enemies, using both Consecration and Wave of Light to do so. Crusader allies provide additional damage and crowd control for Frida, while disciples heal wounded allies.

Damage Dealers
  • Interrupt any heals you can to avoid enemies regaining too much health.
  • Avoid facing the crusader allies when they cast Blinding Faith.
  • Avoid attacking the boss when they are affected by Seal of Reckoning.
Healers
Tanks
  • Don't let Sacred Blade stack too high.
  • When tanking the adds, move them out of Consecration so they are not affected by its damage reduction.
  • Keep the adds moving to avoid them being hit by Wave of Light.
