Shai
Shai is pretty freeform with the order of attacking skills: low skill floor, high skill ceiling. Proper positioning and managing buffs, debuffs and add-ons correctly makes all the difference.

Shai
- Awakening Weapon TalentSol
- Combat StyleSupport/Melee Mage
In the past, Shai lost her memory to the dark illusion. She is forced to face it once more but succumbs to fear and falls into despair. However, after receiving the Melody of Light from Artina, Shai discovered her talent for playing music and uses it to overcome her fears and assists surrounding allies. She learns the true value of music from Artina - Emotion, Purity, Joy - and inherits "Sol." Sol fuses with the vitclari to influence the surrounding area with mystical powers that changes depending on the songs played. If the Shai uses the right song at the right time, she can be the helping hand her allies needed.
