Shattersong: class guide and playstyle

What does Shattersong bring to a party?

Role: Resonance / support. Core idea: Uses resonance-related support and attack enhancement.

Your party’s strongest upcoming action is often the best place to invest support. Discuss who will attack first, where the dangerous enemy will stand and whether the support survives a change of target. Late unlock does not remove the need to learn the engine.

How do you unlock this class?

Campaign unlock; exact digital requirements not yet independently checked.

How should you build around its strengths?

Favor reliable support, safe positioning and a manageable resonance sequence. Keep an independent contribution for rounds when allies cannot use your preferred buff. Select upgrades to strengthen the party’s actual attack patterns.

1. Identify the ally whose next action gains the most from your support.
2. Position within the actual effect range while staying outside unnecessary threats.
3. Time resonance and buffs for that action, with an independent fallback if the ally is delayed.

What commonly goes wrong?

Supporting the biggest theoretical attack is wasted if that ally must open a door or spend the turn travelling. Keep the payoff flexible until the teammate confirms a productive action, and verify every digital resonance restriction before planning a chain.

Where should you go next?

Read the Shattersong build framework, compare party composition, and review card economy before committing to a long scenario.
