Best Accessories For Each Class In Xenoblade Chronicles 3

Best Accessories for Each Class

Earlier, we mentioned our guide about Xenoblade Chronicles 3 classes, and we urged you to have a read before getting into this one. 

To put it simply, each character in the game belongs to a role and a class. There are three roles in the game; Attackers, Defenders, and Healers. Each role has multiple classes with different sets of abilities. 

As we saw earlier, there are many accessories in the game, which brings out dozens of possibilities in which you can build your characters. However, some accessories would work better with specific roles and classes.

Let’s quickly run through the best accessories in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 for each role and class without further ado.

Attacker Accessories

Attackers are the main damage inflictors in the game. Their main focus lies in the strength and are the aggressors in the team. So in order to get the best out of the Attacker classes in Xenoblade Chronicles 3, it’s better to link them up with accessories that enhance damage.

Swordfighter and Ogre are one of the more reoccurring Attacker classes in the game. Noah and Sena are attackers from the six main characters in the game.

While picking accessories for your Attackers, you should pick the ones that increase attack damage. With increased damage, your team will end battles faster.

When it comes to picking accessories for Attackers, Violent Stone is a great choice. It adds 108% more damage to your character’s auto-attacks. Apart from that, you can also use the legendary Saturni Rings; with this equipped, your attacker’s total damage will increase by a massive 40%. 

Mercurri Rings is another great option as it boosts the critical rate by 60%. These rings would give you a greater chance to put down your enemy quicker. Lastly, we wanted to include the Hellfire Amulet in our list of the best Attacker accessories in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. The Amulet will increase the Blaze effect by 300%.

Defender Accessories

Defenders are the spine of your team in XC3. These heroes will be responsible for distracting enemies while resisting their attacks. These guys will allow the Attackers to fully shine in their role and inflict damage on the opponent. 

So any accessory that boosts up total or special resistances is suitable for the Defenders in your party. From your main 6, Lanz is a Heavy Guard Defender, while Mio is a Zephyr Defender. You’ll have them as your Defenders from the start of the game. Therefore, it’s important to know all the worthy accessories that will complement them.

In our eyes, Titanium Support and Iovis Rings are a must-have for your Zephyr Class. These accessories will enhance your agility, making it a lot easier to evade attacks. To be more precise, Titanium Support boosts your agility by 32%, whereas Iovis Rings increases it by 40%.

Other than these, Martis Rings are a great match for Defenders as this item increases the block rate by 60%! Shell Lining is another good accessory to have in your locker since it increases the Ether Defence by 16%. 

Healer Accessories

Lastly, we are left with the Healers. These guys will be your medics during battles. They will grant ability buffs to their allies, heal them, and revive them when they are down. Therefore, it’s essential to choose the accessories that give healing buffs to the Healers in your team. Without Healers, you won’t last long in any battle and may find it hard to beat bosses.

Taion and Eunie are your healers in your main team in XC3, and they belong to the Tactician and Medic Gunner classes, respectively. You should search for the best-suited accessories for the Healers since they will make battles a lot easier for you with the right items. 

Luckily for you, we have assembled the best accessories for Healers in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Let’s dive right into them and find out what they do.

First up, the Solis Ring is a must-have, this may take some time to acquire, but it’s surely the best Healer‘s accessory available. The Solis Ring will grant an additional 40% in healing ability. 

Before acquiring Solis Ring, you can also opt for Circlet of Intellect which grants a 20% increase in healing. Other than that, the Harvest Necklace is another great accessory to have since it boosts the amount of HP healed by the Healer. 

Lastly, we deem it necessary to mention a special accessory called ‘Memory Locket‘. It allows Attackers and Defenders the ability to revive allies even if they’re not Healers by role. 

There you have it, our comprehensive guide about the best Xenoblade Chronicles 3 accessories. Before you get back to playing the game, continue reading our article to learn about some other important stuff regarding accessories in XC3.
