InSword of Convallaria, many strong free-to-play characters can help round out your roster. Crimson Falcon is a character that excels at moving quickly across the map and has the potential to dish out some seriously high single target damage.
Crimson Falcon’s role is a Seeker, which counters the Breaker role and has an advantage when attacking and defending against them. Use Crimson Falcon to deal increased Damage when attacking Breakers and utilize her excellent movement abilities to teleport behind foes and quickly take targets down. Choosing the right upgrades and gear will allow you to maximize Crimson Falcon’s effectiveness in battle.
Character Upgrades
As characters rank up, they gain access to powerful Skills, Passives, and Reactionabilities that will define their playstyle and power scaling. Choosing the right selections at Ranks One, Three, Five, Seven, and Nine willsynergize to make Crimson Falcon an effective member of your team.
Crimson Falcon gains increased Critical Damage, Defensive Damage Mitigation, a powerful Teleport ability and a double-striking basic attack that offers a huge single target damage boost.
Rank 1
Ambush
Ambush is a Skill and a Passive Ability that deals 20 percent Physical Damage if an attacked target was Unharmed.
Rank 3
Precise Strike
Precise Strike is a Skill and a Passive Ability that increases Critical Damage by 15 percent. If you attack from behind a target, Critical Damage is increased by 40 percent.
Rank 5
Vital Guard
Vital Guard is a Reaction that occurs when Crimson Falcon is hit by an attack. The attack’s Damage is reduced by eight percent. After Crimson Falcon has been hit by an attack, if she is Dying, Vital Guard causes her to gain Dodge for one turn.
Rank 7
Shadow Gait
Shadow Gait is a Skill and a Support Ability that Teleports Crimson Falcon behind an enemy and steals an Attribute Buff from them.
While the alternative Rank 7 choice Battle Fever is tempting due to its damage mitigation, it is inferior to Shadow Gait’s mobility.Shadow Gait offers greater survivability through tactical positioning than Battle Fever’s damage reduction.The best kind of damage mitigation is not getting hit at all. Teleport to an enemy using Shadow Gait, attack, and then use Crimson Falcon’s movement afterward to move out of range of enemy attacks.
Rank 9
Powerful Attack
Powerful Attack is a Basic Attack that deals 55 percent Physical Damage twice.
While the alternative Rank 9 choice Armor-Piercing Strike can appear to be better at first glace - with its 50 percent damage twice, plus a target debuff - don’t be fooled.Dealing the extra 10 percent damage that Powerful Strike gives Crimson Falcon is significant, and debuffs aren’t needed on an enemy that’s already dead from the superior Powerful Attack.
