High Overall Stats

Flik has overall above-average stats. His STR and DEX stats are high in particular, making him an excellent choice for physical offense. His Magic stats are not low either, so a magical build for Flik is also viable.

While defense is not his strong suit, equipping Flik with a shield allows him to be more survivable in the front row.

All Character Stats and How to Increase

Excellent Unite Attack

Flik has an excellent Unite Attack with Alen and Grenseal. Their Pretty Boy Attack deals 2x damage to a single target, without any drawbacks. This Unite Attack proves highly effective during boss battles.

Flik is a mandatory character for a significant portion of the game, including the late stages, making him a high priority character to train.
