Character Function and Summary

Puppet is a navigator that mainly supports by giving the party shield and Defense buffs.

She can provide shields and can restore SP. However her shield is not enough as the sole sustain in harder fights and the SP recovery is rarely needed. You can use her in the early game to give the party a safety net, but in harder modes you’ll have to supplement that with more sustain elsewhere.

In terms of her buffs, it takes a very long to build up her Seashell stacks as you mostly gain it from using her Skill 1 every turn. Only when the fight is about to end you should use her Skill 3, as after the effect ends you will lose 2 Seashell stacks.

Character Synergies

Skull: As Skull wants to stay at low HP to maximize his damage, Puppet’s ability to provide non HP sustain in the form of shield can make him safer to play.
Fox (CN only): Fox is the only DPS that scales with Defense and has a slower playstyle of Counter. While they can work together as both characters are inherently slow and Fox likes what Puppet provides, there are usually better options for Fox still.

Important Awareness / Weapon Values

Awareness 1: This speeds up Puppet’s Seashell gain by giving the party 1 Seashell stack at the start of battle.
Weapon: Given how slow it is to build up Seashell stacks, any way to accelerate that is strong when you want to play Puppet.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Is the only Navigator that can provide sustain each turn.

Cons

Takes a very long time to build up stacks and buffs.
Since she doesn’t shield enough to act as your sole sustain, you’ll still need to run a proper sustain character when necessary.
