2. Ready to Loose Mechanic and Target Aim Optimization
- ✅ When activating a defensive skill, Shi Faust enters the Ready to Loose state, receiving Target Aim.
- ✅ The attack in the left slot turns into a one-coin attack, dealing damage based on the replaced skill (Skill 1, 2, 3 correspond to bonuses of 11%, 22%, 44%).
- ⚠️ Firing immediately will deal low damage and you cannot redraw the bow in the same turn.
- ✅ Optimize by focusing on the Target Aim effect (gain 1 stack each turn without attacking).
- ✅ When you have 4 Target Aim, arrow damage increases by 44% Crit, and the defense slot turns into Skill 3 (maximum bonus of 44%).
- ✅ Releasing the arrow grants 5 Poise Count for each Target Aim, ensuring 100% critical hit and gaining an additional 4 Poise Count if the target is defeated.
- ⚠️ Problem: Shi Faust has to AFK for 4 turns to accumulate enough enhancement effects.

3. Suitable Team Compositions and Overall Evaluation of Shi Faust
- ✅ Suitable team composition: Revolves around the NCorp, La Mancha, and Full Stop duo.
- ✅ Shi Faust plays the role of an AFK tanker, stalling and stacking Target Aim.
- ✅ This team composition helps address NCorp's weakness (weak single-target damage).
- ❌ However, this team composition is just a cheaper version of the original LaLacha.
- ❌ Conclusion: Shi Faust is a relatively useless ID, stacks effects slowly, and has a negative characteristic mechanic.
