SD Gundam G Generation ETERNAL Char Attacker Build Guide

To maximize Char Aznable in the Attacker role in SD Gundam G Generation ETERNAL, assign him to a high-mobility mobile suit that matches his weapon proficiency and focus his turns on player-phase offensive strikes. The Attacker role trades defensive durability and team utility for rapid attack scaling, critical rate boosts, and fast Tension generation. Char functions best when taking down high-priority targets before they can retaliate rather than baiting multiple attacks during the enemy phase.

Mobile Suit Pairings for Attacker Char

Char requires a unit with strong offensive weapon ratings and sufficient movement—ideally 6 or higher—to keep pace with the frontline. Matching unit weapon types to Char's active pilot proficiencies ensures he hits damage caps against armored targets.

Mobile Suit	Primary Combat Range	Key Tactical Strength	Recommended Combat Role
MS-06S Zaku II (Char Custom)	Short to Medium (1–3)	High early-game mobility and low deployment cost	Early progression sweeper
MS-14S Gelgoog (Char Custom)	Medium (2–4)	Beam rifle penetration and balanced terrain ranks	Mid-game armor buster
MSN-02 Zeong	Medium to Long (2–5)	All-range wired mega particle cannons and high EX burst	Boss finisher and ranged artillery
MSN-04 Sazabi	Versatile (1–5)	Funnel tracking, heavy beam shot, and highest stat caps	Endgame primary carry

When selecting between these options, prioritize the engagement range your squad lacks. For early maps, the MS-06S Zaku II provides an efficient low-cost platform. In late-game encounters, transition to the MSN-02 Zeong or MSN-04 Sazabi to access extended engagement ranges and high-damage EX skills.

Managing Tension and Attack Sequences

Char relies heavily on escalating his Tension gauge to "Super High" to unlock maximum weapon damage and critical hit scaling. Follow this turn sequence to build and maintain his offensive momentum:

Target a low-durability unit first: Secure a quick kill on an enemy grunt on your opening turn to immediately elevate Char out of Normal Tension.
Reposition with Chance Steps: Use the bonus movement granted by a confirmed kill to advance toward high-value targets or retreat to defensive cover.
Avoid taking enemy-phase damage: Taking hits before reaching high Tension stalls momentum. Keep Char shielded from long-range sniper fire using terrain or allied zones of control.
Unload EX Skills at maximum Tension: Save high-cost SP or EX weapon attacks until Char reaches peak Tension, maximizing critical damage multipliers against enemy bosses.

Squad Positioning and Avoiding Overextension

Because Char lacks personal damage reduction skills, aggressive use of consecutive Chance Steps can isolate him within enemy firing lines. Support him with the following squad safeguards:

Flagship Command Auras: Keep Char within the command aura of your flagship or tactical lead to protect his hit rates against high-evasion aces.
Supporter Debuffs: Have a Supporter pilot apply armor reduction debuffs to tough targets before Char initiates combat.
Defender Buffers: Position a high-durability Defender unit within support range to intercept counter-attacks if Char must finish his turn in hostile range.
Terrain Bonuses: When moving Char forward, end his movement on terrain features like colonies, debris fields, or urban cover to boost his base evasion rate.
