Team planning · Check one connection
DragonSword Awakening Team Planning
1. Read the connection in one direction
Write the pair as A → B: A supplies the condition; B is the intended receiver. Copy the relevant wording from your installed game version, including any extra requirements. A shared theme or a role label is not evidence that the skills connect.
The official combat overview connects Active Skills, Status Ailments and Signal Skills. It does not assign every team a mandatory Starter, Connector and Finisher. Use the actual skill descriptions to assess your pair.
2. Copy this handoff worksheet into your notes
| Field | What to record |
|---|---|
| Context | Game version, encounter and the pair A → B. |
| Receiver B | Signal Skill name and its exact required condition. |
| Supplier A | Skill name and the condition its description says it supplies. |
| Extra checks | Additional conditions written on either skill; mark anything unclear as unknown. |
| In combat | Was the required condition present? Did B’s prompt appear? Could you activate the intended Signal? Record what happened. |
| Conclusion | Observed handoff / not demonstrated / insufficient information, with the reason. |
- Observed handoff: you saw the required condition and activated B’s intended Signal. Keep that conclusion tied to this pair, direction and encounter; it does not rank the team’s strength.
- Not demonstrated: the attempt did not produce the intended handoff. Record the missing observation rather than declaring the pair impossible.
- Insufficient information: the skill text, extra requirement or result is unclear. Leave the connection unconfirmed.
If the prompt is missing, use the Signal Skills troubleshooting guide for the trigger checks, then return to this record with the result.
3. Check the third Hero separately
An observed A → B handoff does not prove B → A or B → C. If you want the third Hero to continue the sequence, make a separate record for that direction. If you want that Hero for another purpose, write down that purpose and check the relevant skill text; do not invent a connection just to fill a “Finisher” slot.
Your result is a list of observed and unresolved connections among the Heroes you own. For equipment changes or before-and-after performance comparisons, continue to Build Planning; this worksheet only checks the intended connections.
Sources & verification
The official source supports the combat overview. The worksheet and result labels are our editorial method, not first-hand validation of a Hero pairing. Use your current in-game skill text for the pair you record.
- Official Steam store page — Checked October 19, 2026: describes Active Skills, Status Ailments, Signal Skills and Switching Signals. It does not validate a named Hero pairing, fixed three-role formation or this worksheet.
