Notes
  • Crystal Snail has Light + Earth dual-type, extremely high Physical Defense (128) but extremely low Speed (65), trait "Polarization" reduces damage taken from attack types matching its carried skill types by 40%, meaning carrying Light/Earth-type skills provides damage reduction benefits
  • Skill pool focuses on physical output (Penetration, Sand Raise, Stomp, Flash Impact, Earth Spike); magic output limited to Pulse Beam, Mud, and Sonic Bullet; rich support skills (Magic Boost, Mud Skin, Diffuse Reflection, Ready and Waiting, Barrier, Mirror Reflection).
  • With extremely low speed, Crystal Snail is better suited as a back-end tank or artillery, using high physical defense and damage reduction skills to hold position.
  • Trait encourages carrying Light/Earth-type skills, but skill list doesn't label specific attributes; must infer from descriptions: Pulse Ray, Flash Impact, Magic Boost, Diffuse Reflection, Mirror Reflection may be Light-type; Mud, Slime Skin, Sand Raise, Stomp, Earth Spike, Bulwark may be Earth-type; Transmission, Sonic Bullet, Ready and Waiting attributes unknown
