Strategy
The Melter's defining threat is costume dissolution — it can forcibly remove equipped costumes mid-combat, collapsing your Posture stack and disabling active Combos. Avoid committing expensive, high-Posture costumes before the dissolution window. Prioritise disposable or zero-cost outfit cards (such as Night Sky Bikini Top) that can be cycled without catastrophic loss. Rebuild Posture aggressively after the dissolution resolves.
Tips
- ✦Don't invest heavy Posture-stacking costumes before the dissolution window — they'll be stripped.
- ✦Night Sky Bikini Top (0-cost) is ideal as a throwaway costume to absorb dissolution.
- ✦After dissolution resolves, rebuild Posture quickly with Lionheart Battle Tunic or Skirt of Ascension.
- ✦Ethereal Waltz Dodge can skip the dissolution turn entirely if timed correctly.
