Who Is The Best Buddy?

All of these are great buddies to have help in your battle, but here is a list of which ones are the best to have in your party:

• Avinia is a great partner, as she uses the monster horn, and will mainly focus on healing and giving you buffs, making her great support.

• If you wanna have an offensive partner then Reverto is you partner. He is great at dealing tons of damage, and will often deal even more damage than you.
