Overload is Gustave's signature combat skill, which, used properly, can wreak havoc on the ranks of enemies. From this tutorial page, you will learn how it works and how best to use it.
Last update:
Every hero in Expedition 33 has their own unique mechanics used in combat. Gustave's unique ability is Overcharge, which can inflict massive damage when used properly. On this guide page, we will explain the principles of the Overcharge ability, including tips on how to use it best.
How does Overcharge work?
Overcharge is a special attack in Gustave's arsenal that deals very high lightning damage to a single target. However, its effectiveness depends on the amount of accumulated charges. Charges are generated by most of the hero's remaining abilities. The number of currently held charges is displayed on the right side of the screen during Gustave's turn. Charges are also generated when parrying and dodging.
Gustave's combat strategy is based on accumulating successive charges and releasing them at a crucial moment of the fight. A well-utilized Overcharge can change the course of many encounters. This is why it's so important to fully utilize the potential of this ability.
What is the best way to utilize Overcharge?
If you decide to base Gustave's build on the Overcharge ability, prioritize abilities that hit more than once per turn. A good example here would be the basic Lumiere Assault and Strike Storm. Both generate additional charges during critical hits, so it's recommended to develop the Luck attribute for Gustave. You can additionally increase the chance of a critical hit by equipping a dedicated Picto, for example Critical Burn.
Also, make sure that Gustave always has access to at least four action points. That's how much Overcharge consumes.
In critical situations, you may consider activating Overcharge, even if you have not yet acquired the maximum number of charges.
