All Ways to Switch Characters

- Change in Party Setup menu
- Arrange party before entering a domain
On-Field Switching
Tap the character's icon on the upper right side of the screen for mobile, using the numbers 1-5 for PC, and using the directional pad for the PS4. You'll be able to see which characters are active by checking the upper right part of the screen.
In mobile, you can tap on the character's name or icon to switch to them immediately.
Changing Party Members
The Party members can also be changed (out of combat) by going to the Pause Menu and selecting Party Setup

You can also hold on the character's icon while on-field in PC or Mobile to go to Party Setup quicker!
How to Get Characters
Before Entering Domains
When entering temples, you will be prompted to create a team before being able to enter the temple. There will also be restrictions as some dungeons require a certain element(s) in order for them to be completed. Make sure to have a variety of characters on your team!
