Okay, we'll be starting first with the actual area of effect (AoE) of insignias. All 4 insignias have an <s>abysmal</s> short AoE of 3x3, and they are not used in a normal field farming scenario. They are used practically in "long" MVP fights. When placing insignias underneath an MVP, you'll always have to consider the distance between you and the MVP. Since an insignia has a 3x3 AoE, you'd want the MVP to be as close to you as possible to maximize its AoE. Additionally, insignias are stationary and can't be freely readjusted unlike your LP since it has a 1 minute cooldown. In line with this, only one of each elemental insignia can be placed at a time and each level of the elemental insignias don't share the same cooldown. You'll have to decide which level of insignias you're gonna use. If you've placed your insignias on the wrong cell, you will have to wait for a minute before it's off CD so don't recklessly cast your insignias all over the place. There's also no visual indicator if an MVP is standing or affected by your insignias. Timing and strategic estimation are important in placing an insignia. | |||

The elemental insignias are also divided into '''three (3) levels''', each of which gives different buffs and debuffs. '''Level 1s''' are typically used to "debuff" the MVP standing on its AoE. '''Level 2s''' are for physical-oriented classes where they can stand on it to benefit from its "buffing effect" but that doesn't necessarily mean it can't be placed underneath the MVP too so you can maximize its "buffing effect" on you and its "debuffing effect" on the MVP (we'll talk more about what this as we push through). '''Level 3s''' are for the magic-oriented classes and just like Level 2s, it can be placed both on you and the MVP to full capitalize on the insignia's "buffing and debuffing effects." | The elemental insignias are also divided into '''three (3) levels''', each of which gives different buffs and debuffs.

Besides getting 100% Dragon resistance, it's also important to note that you would need to achieve 1 second FCT, 100% VCT reduction, general tankiness (i.e. MaxHP%, RES, MRes, MDef & Def), and a bit of ACD to help you spam your '''{{#skill:276}}''' so you can absorb Betelgeuse's '''{{#skill:2217}}'''. You may also cast '''{{#skill:288}}''' underneath you to cancel Betelgeuse's '''{{#skill:2213}}''' and '''{{#skill:83}}s''', but if you have a magical DPS such as EM and AM that have ground AoE skills in your party you might want to remove LP so that they also hit Betelgeuse. It's also possible to use lower levels of LP (7x7), but this will require coordination and communication with your team. If the party is made up of physical attackers then you can cast LP. | Besides getting 100% Dragon resistance, it's also important to note that you would need to achieve 1 second FCT, 100% VCT reduction, general tankiness (i.e. MaxHP%, RES, MRes, MDef & Def), and a bit of ACD to help you spam your '''{{#skill:276}}''' so you can absorb Betelgeuse's '''{{#skill:2217}}'''.

One way you can do to support your party is placing insignias underneath Betel. It's also a good tactic when you have another EM DPS to coordinate with them so that they can place the insignias on the 2nd Phase, while you handle the 3rd Phase. As what we've talked about in the [[The_Complete_Elemental_Master_Guide_by_Goldie#Insignia_System Insignia|insignia system]] portion, insignias are stationary and have 1 minute CD and thus needs careful planning and set-up. | One way you can do to support your party is placing insignias underneath Betel.
