Common questions about Myrtle

Which Myrtle skill should I master first?

Start with S1, Support β. At skill level 7 it costs 25 SP and starts with 10. At M3 it costs 22 and starts with 13, so the first activation takes nine seconds instead of 15 with normal SP recovery. It also delivers its DP over eight seconds.

When is Healing Wings worth using?

Use S2 when a nearby blocker needs healing before a Medic can deploy. If the squad already survives the opening, S1 usually makes it easier to afford your frontline sooner.
