What is Overkill?

Overkill

Overkill is one of the many battle mechanics in Final Fantasy Resonance that was carried over from its original game, Brave Exvius. It is triggered when a party member attacks an enemy when they already are at 0 HP and go beyond that number.

How to trigger Overkill?

To trigger Overkill, first you will need to trigger Sweeping Stagger. If there are remaining enemies when the Bonus Phase starts and you are strong enough to kill them, then you can do Overkill.

Simply attack an enemy until it hits 0 HP. If they are the last enemy in the battle and another party member attacks them, they will keep attacking it thus triggering Overkill. Using a Resonance can also trigger Overkill.
