Mercedes/Gameplay

Mercedes is an optional playable character in Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. She is Pirate and a physically-geared attacker with abilities related to the Water element, including some Black Magic (although she cannot deal much damage with those as she favors the Attack stat). Her weapon of choice is the axe.
==Gameplay==
Mercedes's job is listed as Pirate. A 4-6★ Rare Summon available since the event Memories from the Aquapolis (which originally ran in January 2017 in the Global version), her role is that of Physical Damage. She has no innate element or status ailment resistances. Her Trust Master reward is the Viking Axe, a Water-elemental weapon with an Attack power of 125, which has great synergy with Mercedes herself if equipped.
Her awakening materials are the following:
*5★ - Seed of Life x25, Deepsea Bloom x13, Sacred Crystal x15, Spiritsand x8, Holy Crystal x8
*6★ - Rainbow Bloom x20, Calamity Gem x10, Prismatic Horn x10, Fairies' Writ x5, Divine Crystal x5

Mercedes' skill arsenal focuses on physical damage. While she has limited abilities, she is designed to be able to inflict major damage through passives and buffs.
