Best party partners

Slot Suzaku beside a Pal that covers the Water weakness chart at /elements, so a single swap answers whatever resists you. Keep one flyer for traversal and one Handiwork Pal for field crafting alongside it.

How to fight a wild Suzaku

Open from behind for the backstab multiplier, keep its Cross Slash, Meteor, Fireball, Aqua Burst on cooldown by circling, and use the /damage calculator to confirm your weapon clears its 238 DEF before you commit ammo.

PvP notes

Suzaku is a niche PvP pick — bring it for the Rain Caller partner skill rather than raw stats. Ranked lobbies punish single-element teams, so never stack two Water Pals.

Boss and raid use

Against tower and raid bosses, Suzaku performs best with a same-type damage move plus a shield-breaking partner. Check the raid rotation notes on /guides before committing a full team.
