u/Iintrude

It took me a while to get a controller layout that I felt comfortable with, across Ys 8,9 and 10. Here is what I ended up with in case anyone else was having issues like I was. I am curious to see other people's. I enjoy these binds so much that I try to emulate them across any action rpg I am playing. (Granblue....how I wish you would let me remap controls!)

X= Attack

B= Swap

A=Jump

Y= Varies per game

RB= Dodge/Sprint

LT= Block

RT= Skills modifier

RB= Special ability like wires.

DPad Right = Consumable

DPad Down = Map

Special = LT + RT

Lock On = Right Stick Click

I was just wondering how some of you chose to build your characters out when it comes to stats and quartz and quartz abilities.

For example, I am a sucker for Status builds. I currently have Judith set up for damage/status. With her Weapon and Extra lines, not having conflicting elemental slots, I find that I can get 8 status effects in those slots, combined with her innate Bewitch. I then aim to get some quartz effects that give her a few other debuffs to spread. I hope that I can find some kind of status effect quartz or Holo Core eventually.

I have Van setup as an Evasion tank and currently with the quartz ability that retaliates whenever you evade.

Quatre is my "Mage" with elemental boosts II when possible.

I am just curious as to who and how you are using everyone?
