Overview

After starring in Granblue Fantasy, Shadowverse, and the Levin’s Champion Wyrmprint, Albert finally rolls into Dragalia Lost as a powerful 5★ Adventurer. With devastating Force Strikes and powerful Electrification buffs, he’s a force to be reckoned with. With Curse of Nihility invalidating many kits, Albert and his unique buffs have been allowed to shine, positioning him as a prime Sword choice for Dominion quests.  

Notes about Thunderous Impulse

Albert comes with an unusual Skill which recharges gradually over the course of 40 seconds. While the guaranteed SP gain is reassuring, it makes for a strict rhythm of downtime. Regeneration doesn’t start again until the 15-20 seconds are up, meaning Albert is Electrified for about a third of the battle. Still, when the buff provides another 30% Strength, inflicts Paralysis, and enhances Lightning Burst, it’s a potent bonus.  

Strengths

Devastating Force Strikes

When Electrified, Albert gains a unique, two-level force strike, inflicting Paralysis and significantly chunking Overdrive gauges. Important to note, force striking while not Electrified is highly discouraged due to Impulse Slash, demanding that Albert employ 5-combo sequences during Skill 2 downtime. 

Dominion-Compatible

Because Albert's Electrification is a unique buff, it is exempt from the Curse of Nihility debuff that nullifies so many other kits. Raw damage combined with fast breaks makes Albert a strong Sword option amidst a sea of Ryszardas and Mitsuhides. 

Weaknesses

Electrification Downtime

Thunderous Impulse fills by timed regen rather than attacks, meaning Albert’s power spikes are independent of the naturally high SP gains of Sword users.

Low Paralysis Uptime

A symptom of the above weakness, Albert's Paralysis is tied to his cyclical Electrification, so he prefers an ally like Mitsuhide to reliably apply the status.

Dragon Recommendations

Gala Reborn Jeanne needs no introduction; use her if you have her.

Gala Thor also has powerful dragon form burst damage but is not viable in Dominion quests.

Daikokuten is a solid pick if combo counts can be maintained.

Corsaint Phoenix is the strongest non-limited pick and meshes well with Albert's innate Paralysis.

Weapon Recommendations

Budget Option: Zex's End

Wyrmprint Recommendations

Pair 1

Pair 2

Set 1: General purpose setup. Slot 5 can be replaced by any Crit Rate pick.

Set 2: Double punisher setup that gets its Skill Damage from two of Lilith's prints: Crown of Light and Tutelary's Destiny. Assumes high allied Flashburn uptime.

For both sets, A Game of Cat and Boar is highly recommended to increase Electrification uptime.
