Best passives for Gildra

Passives are rolled or bred on, not learned, so these are the same picks for any Pal you plan to fight with — highest-ranked attack traits first.

No innate passives — relies on stat baseline + active skills.

Awakening

Gildra is dual-element, so its crystal is either Dark Awakening Crystal or Ground Awakening Crystal — the item data names one element per crystal and does not say which a two-element Pal takes. Either way it costs 50 Radiant Gems of that element plus 10 World Tree Holy Water.

Its Partner Skill gains a line

Awakening any Pal raises its stats. Gildra is one of 66 whose Partner Skill also gains an Cooldown Reduction: XL bonus at rank 5 — blank at rank 1, so it needs condensing too.
