Some players might miss out on her at first because of these mechanics. It’s worth noting that she can sync her element with the main character’s, take on any element, and is one of the few characters who can’t do normal attacks. Also, her life is linked with the main character’s, so if one dies, the other goes down too.

Rackam has a strong connection with his ship, the Grandcypher, which is a major theme in his character. Additionally, as a fire element character, he’s got this combat style wielding a gun. His go-to weapon is that gun of his, letting him unleash some seriously powerful fire-based ranged attacks.
