Hello! Umm, so if anyone sees this post, I'd like to talk about ways to eliminate the usage of Power Charge, or at least diminish it to an only-when-necessary usage, so I am creating a thread where people who are interested in this topic post their ways of going about this. I'll start, I guess.
What I have started doing to eliminate my PC usage is try to start a run without using it at all, and starting by that, I've been looking for ways to eliminate them, such as I don't know, spamming arcane artes, but upon closer look, I've realized some other artes are really good for breaking Iron Stances. (I am a Milla player, so I'd be saying this from a Milla player's point of view.) Sometimes, artes that to a lot of pokes, such as Sigil Spear or Sylph II, have very good Iron Stance breaking properties, so one can infer it MAY (MAY) work like that with other characters, for we have seen Leia's Soulstoke Spin's Iron Stance-breaking properties. It could be that, let's say, Elize's Deadly Gaze may also have a good Iron Stance breaking property, due to the fast, multiple pokes it gives. It could also be the case maybe with Rowen's Dagger Rhapsody or Rage Crescendo (Or even Soaring Symphony).
This is just my pure conjecture on how things may work, but if you know something or have some other ideas, feel free to post them here. It's in the name of science, after all ;3

It depends on the character I'd say. Every character has an arte that has high-Iron Stance breaking properties. Artes that have the "Iron Stance Break Rate UP" are usually nice ones to use, though you'd have to experiment to see how effective they are. For a solo capacity, I'd say it's a good idea to carry over store-bought normal/blue herbs(99 of them from a 2nd play; least 30) to accentuate IS-breaking artes. Its hardly necessary, depending on what arte you use and your STR rating, but it definitely helps the artes that have smaller ISBR-Up effectiveness.

Yeah, kind of like Jude's beast and whatever, yeah? I honestly made this thread for people to post whatever methods for Iron Stance break here, so that's cool to know. It still eludes me though, which artes can be used with characters like Muzét or Rowen. I made this for people to post their main's IS breaking options, too, but it's not like this board is active anymore again :I

Yeah that's true unfortunately; not a lot of activity =0(. Truth be told, I'd doubt there'd be anyone who is interested enough to NOT use Power Charge 2/3 to break IS. Practically everyone uses PC in some capacity; only very recently people have started NOT using it, so I'd imagine it take some work to learn the ins-and-outs to it all. There aren't many Rowen and Muzet players out there either(only Samu, maybe Xiaoyu play Muzet, and no one mains Rowen =0().
