Some important things players need to understand with the E.T.E combat system are:
Ground VS Aerial Combat Stages
When playing E.T.E Chronicle and challenging the different stages in the story, players may be surprised to find out that the combat in E.T.E Chronicle is divided mainly into 2 different types, each with their own uniqueness and things players need to consider. These 2 types of combat situations are the aerial combat and the ground combat stages.
As their name suggests, the combat in E.T.E Chronicle are mostly conducted in 2 different areas - the ground level and the on the air.
When on the ground, the different E.T.Es will function like your regular mechas and will have the ability to move around the battlefield in order to find different enemies and defeat them using attacks. During ground battles, players will be able to move 360 degrees and be able to move wherever they want and attack the enemies in different orders with different combo of attacks.
Unlike on the ground, however, the aerial combat in E.T.E Chronicle is much more complicated in nature, with the players’ E.T.E taking the form of fighter jets and different types of planes in order to attack the enemies’ aerial forces. In this mode, players will not be able to move too freely and will have to dodge nimbly to be able to survive the enemies’ bullet hell-like attack patterns. During aerial fights, players will also attack the enemies by shooting at them using the plane’s projectile weapons, requiring players to aim precisely to dispatch the enemies.
E.T.E Combat Skills & Ultimate
During the combat in E.T.E Chronicle, each E.T.E units will have their own unique abilities and skills depending on their class, skills and abilities, each distinct from each other and each of the E.T.E also do a unique attacking pattern that is unique to them only.
When on the ground, each E.T.E skills and abilities will be able to deal damage to enemies, allowing them to combo their skills and their unique attack patterns into a deadly attacking combos against the enemies.
When airborne, the different E.T.E skills and abilities will manifest into special types of projectiles with different effects that players can unleash against the enemy threats, allowing the planes to deal massive amounts of damage, granting buffs or inflicting powerful debuffs onto the enemies’ aerial forces.
Finally, when different E.T.E have accumulated enough energy by dealing damage to enemies, they will be able to use their ultimate attack, allowing them to perform a super strong attack against the enemies, dealing massive amounts of damage to the enemies. These Ultimates are consistent between Ground and Aerial combat, granting similar effects and triggering similar attacks in both battle modes.
Enemy Target Switching & E.T.E Switching
When in combat, players might find that if their E.T.E remains on the battlefield for too long, they will inevitably take a lot of damage and will need to retreat in order to not be defeated in battle. This is why the combat system in E.T.E Chronicle grants players the ability to switch between E.T.E with ease by tapping the different E.T.E portraits.
When switching, the energy accumulated for ultimate attacks by the E.T.E on field will be kept by the E.T.E switching out and the switched in E.T.E will have to accumulate their own energy in order to use their own ultimate. However, if multiple E.T.Es have their ultimate skill bar filled, players will be able to immediately trigger the E.T.E’s ultimate skill even when they are off the battlefield, allowing players to plan ahead and use their E.T.E Ultimates combos to their advantage.
Another thing players should note when on the battlefield is the ability to switch enemy targets. Some enemies on the field are more deadly than others due to their unique abilities or debuffing capabilities, making it more difficult for players to deal with when they are on the field. Therefore, players should pay attention to these enemies and use the enemy target switching system on the upper left corner by clicking on the enemies’ portrait to switch targets and deal with the troublesome enemies as quickly as possible.

Make A Well Balanced Team Of E.T.Es
During both ground and aerial combat, having a variety of powerful and useful E.T.Es to use against the enemy is a very crucial thing as many different types of E.T.Es will be able to fulfill many different roles on the battlefield. Therefore, in order to best clear harder stages, players should know how to make a good and well balanced E.T.E team.
Pay Attention To Dangerous Enemies
As mentioned, players might encounter very dangerous and annoying monsters and enemies when fighting both on the ground and during aerial stages, so make sure to target these annoying enemies that will hinder your ability to deal actual damage against your main target enemies first.
To know which of the enemies are annoying or have powerful effects that will prove troublesome in the long run, players should always check the enemy information before each combat stage in order to have a better idea of which enemy to look out for when on the battlefield.
Use Skills & Ultimate Combos Wisely
An E.T.E Skill and Ultimate are the bread and butter that make each E.T.E unique to each other, with many different E.T.E being extremely powerful thanks to their overwhelmingly powerful skills and ultimate. Therefore, players should have a good understanding of how the different E.T.Es they deploy in battle will work and how their skills combine with their attacks for the best DPS outcome overall.
Another thing players should take advantage of is the ability to chain multiple different E.T.E ultimates even when they are not on the field. Remember to always use the E.T.E Ultimates that debuff the enemies and buff E.T.Es first then chain them with other E.T.E ultimates to deal massive amounts of damage to the enemies.
