How to Trigger Resonance Skills in Final Fantasy Resonance
Resonance skills are the big finishers of Final Fantasy Resonance, one for each Vision. You can only use them at the end of a Sweeping Stagger.
- Stagger every enemy in the same turn to start a Sweeping Stagger.
- Your Resonance skill becomes available on the last turn of that bonus phase.
- The character needs a Vision equipped, since each Vision has its own Resonance skill.
- Resonance skills range from single-target nukes to party heals and barriers.
- Using Resonance 400 times earns the Resonance Rapid Fire trophy.
How to Trigger Resonance Skills
- Lower every enemy's Stagger gauge until all of them are close to breaking.
- Break them all in the same turn, ideally with a multicast spell, to cause a Sweeping Stagger.
- Use the party's extra turns in the bonus phase.
- On the last bonus turn, press the Resonance trigger and pick the skill.
Only characters with a Vision equipped can use one. The stagger guide and multicasting guide show how to line up the break.
What Are Resonance Skills?
Each Vision has one unique Resonance skill that only works during the bonus phase, while every enemy is stunned. Pick the Vision with the effect you need for that fight.
