Tips for playing as The Detective.
The Doctor is a support role that aims to keep your Party condition free for as long as possible.
Don't expect to apply that many conditions so allow your other Party members to take more risks knowing that you can get them back in the battle.
Your abilities can work on Occupants too so don't forget to use them to keep allies fighting by your side for longer.
Remember to use Dream Weaving to try to help remove conditions if you run out of abilities.
