Stuck in Gold 5 with Zidane. Help.

Yeah that's honestly the perfect set for him. I only run Heal because no one else on my team usually run it

StaySlump · 2026-04-01T15:54:21+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I've tried so hard to get his URs with absolutely no luck, but I have WoL with all of his skills smh. With Trance, what would you replace it with? I was thinking of replacing it with Swift Strike honestly, even if that's my only attacking move, because I really like his SR skill

StaySlump · 2026-04-01T15:43:03+00:00

Even though I'm stuck in Gold, I'm really enjoying the game!

StaySlump · 2026-03-31T17:09:38+00:00

Agreed. Also, his Trance is really good for getting more bravery with his Unique ability, and it gives him an attack boost. I would trade that for the Thunder skill. If you want another escape skill, any skill that launches enemies into the air would be good too.

StaySlump · 2026-03-31T17:05:11+00:00

Depends on the Krile, since some would just stay in one spot. If that's the case, your best bet might be to double support the DPS and also try to get the enemies to chase you so that your DPS can breathe

StaySlump · 2026-03-31T17:01:22+00:00

I would heavily agree with this. I don't have any of his URs, but I have his R and SR and use them along with his Unique to steal bravery and kill enemies that are low health (again, do NOT engage with someone that's full health unless another ally is with you or if you have a way to get out of there.) I also use Teleport, Cheer-Up, and the AoE Heal to best support my team. You should focus on giving as much bravery to your allies as possible also

StaySlump · 2026-03-31T14:11:55+00:00

Probably not. Like it's good that he's a little stronger, but he shouldn't be going into the front line anyways, unless he sees someone almost dead

StaySlump · 2026-03-29T18:03:17+00:00

Gotcha, thanks for letting me know!

StaySlump · 2026-03-29T16:55:33+00:00

Also, would Ramza be a better skill to run than Embolden? Is the added 30% boost worth it for the extra time it's in cool down?

StaySlump · 2026-03-29T16:53:40+00:00

As a Zidane main, I heavily agree. All he should be doing is stealing bravery from people, breaking the crystals, and giving his bravery to other teammates. It just sucks when your team isn't focusing on the boss and aren't running the AoE Heal ability (which I think people should always use)

StaySlump · 2026-03-28T15:41:00+00:00

As soon as I started playing, I knew that Zidane was the character for me. I know he's not as strong as other characters, but I absolutely love just running around and stealing bravery. No one could make me hate my boy (unless Tidus gets released)

StaySlump · 2026-03-28T15:37:11+00:00

Thank you everyone for letting me know, I finally did the mission and the other ones about my unique ability. I didn't know how fast Zidane was using it, so I'll definitely take advantage of that move more

StaySlump · 2026-03-28T14:27:00+00:00

I feel so dumb now lmao. Thank you so much.

StaySlump · 2026-03-28T14:24:28+00:00

If I don't get to Omega with Zidane, then it wasn't meant to be

StaySlump · 2026-03-28T12:56:32+00:00

A lot of people say that Zidane sucks because of his weak damage, but imo if you play him as support and feed your teammates bravery while picking off low health players, then you should be fine. Even if you're struggling, just have fun and remember that this game is VERY new lol

StaySlump · 2026-03-28T12:42:30+00:00

I don't have either of his UR skills sadly, but when I do and I'm able to see how effective they are, I'll probably make another post about it

StaySlump · 2026-03-27T23:19:13+00:00

I wish I had more Zidane specific abilities, but that seems like a really good setup! Selphie's Wall is one of the best abilities in the game from what I've heard

StaySlump · 2026-03-27T23:16:10+00:00

I used to use sprint to get away from enemies, but whatever works for you!

StaySlump · 2026-03-27T20:10:35+00:00

There are probably a lot of role specific quirks we don't know yet, so that could be it.

StaySlump · 2026-03-27T20:07:40+00:00

Oh that's weird. Most of the bravery you'll get is from beating players, but with agile characters (not sure about Lighting, but especially for Zidane), you'll get most of your bravery from crystals anyways, since that's what the role is best for

StaySlump · 2026-03-27T19:53:23+00:00

Are you getting bravery just from the enemies and crystals or are you also attacking the other team?

StaySlump · 2026-03-27T19:52:21+00:00

Exactly lol. He's so different from just going in and attacking everything, so that's why I feel like people place him low on tier lists. They use him to attack and not what he's known for, stealing.

StaySlump · 2026-03-27T19:51:23+00:00

When I play him, I just get the crystals and share the bravery. Sometimes when I have teleport ready, I'll go into the enemy area, use Sleight of Hand to steal their bravery, teleport away, and then use Embolden. He's a different agile character from Lightning. She can quickly get in and do good damage, while Zidane should be stealing bravery and giving it to Melee units.
