Because of the mixed role that Wakan Tanka has as a tank and bruiser, he will greatly enjoy the benefits of HP/ATK/level seeds. Do note that due to his relatively high unseeded attack stat compared to other units, he'll have less of an increase percentage-wise than other units normally would.

'''Characters with good Charge Skills'''
 
As a CP battery, {{Companion icon|Wakan Tanka|rarity=5}} pairs nicely with any unit with good charge skills. Consider using units such as {{Companion icon|Typhon|rarity=5|variant=Make Sail}}, {{Companion icon|Tangaroa|rarity=5|variant=Canaan}}, and {{Companion icon|Gyumao|rarity=5}} due to their access to All-range charge skills. Other nice charge skills to look out for include those that bestow {{Status effect|回避}} or {{Status effect|根性}} to allies, which {{Companion icon|Seth|rarity=4}} and {{Companion icon|Zao|rarity=5|variant=Gendarme}} do respectively.
 
'''Characters who do not have Brawn'''
 
{{Status effect|剛力}} is one of the best offensive buffs in the game, and many units do not have access to it. Since Brawn will instantly beef up your team, long ranged units who already have decent damage are prime candidates here. There are obviously many possible units to use, and some examples include {{Companion icon|Thunderbird|rarity=4}}, {{Companion icon|Surtr|rarity=4|variant=Valentine}}, {{Companion icon|Chernobog|rarity=5|variant=Beachside}}, and {{Companion icon|Sanatkumara|rarity=5}}.
 
 
===Fashionista Wakan Tanka===


'''Healers'''  
'''Healers'''  


Despite the many roles which {{Companion icon|Wakan Tanka|rarity=5|variant=Fashionista}} performs, he does not provide any sort of healing so he'll ideally be paired with healers to improve the team's sustainability. Since Wakan Tanka's {{Status effect|守護}} buff applies to allies adjacent to him, the healer would ideally have a healing range which extends diagonally so that allies may receive both healing and Protection from Wakan Tanka. Examples of such healers include {{Companion icon|Chernobog|rarity=5|variant=Beachside}} and {{Companion icon|Tetsuya|rarity=4|variant=Christmas}} due to their healing skills mainly targeting the frontline.

'''Characters with defensive buffs besides Protection'''
'''Characters with defensive buffs besides Protection'''


Due to Wakan Tanka not needing to move to bestow {{Status effect|守護}} to allies, he can be paired with defensive buffers who provide other buffs such as {{Status effect|頑強}} typically by moving in order to make the team tankier than it already is. Examples of such defensive buffers include {{Companion icon|Aizen|rarity=5}}, {{Companion icon|Shino|rarity=5|variant=Valentine}}, and {{Companion icon|Marchosias|rarity=4}}. As stated before in the section concerning healers, it's recommended that such defensive buffs extend beyond adjacent squares for maximum coverage.

'''Characters with offensive buffs ideally besides Ardor'''
'''Characters with offensive buffs ideally besides Ardor'''


Without either {{Status effect|CT+}}, {{Status effect|CT}}, or {{Status effect|熱情}} up on Wakan Tanka, his damage drops by a fair amount, making it preferable that he has a teammate which can offensively buff him in a way besides Ardor. Due to his LB3 having somewhat shaky procs however, an extra source of Ardor would not be a complete waste either. Furthermore, due to Wakan Tanka giving Ardor to his allies via his default skill and his LB3, allies with access to a different offensive buff would benefit the most. There are obviously many units which fall into this category, but the Band units are notable for bestowing {{Status effect|集中}} which is particularly useful in maximizing Wakan Tanka's phase start burst damage.

'''Characters who can attract enemies'''
'''Characters who can attract enemies'''


While Wakan Tanka already has an innate method of attracting enemies through his default skill, this sometimes isn't enough since he might be in the wrong column to pull units when the phase starts. For this reason, units such as {{Companion icon|Surtr|rarity=4|variant=Valentine}}, {{Companion icon|Arachne|rarity=4}}, and {{Companion icon|Dagon|rarity=5}} might be helpful.

Due to Wakan Tanka having slight CP battery tendencies through {{Status effect|熱情}} and his CS, it's recommended to bring units who have good charge skills as opposed to units who have lackluster ones. Note that the reduced range of Wakan Tanka's CS may also be undesirable, so charge skills which increase allies' CP may not be ideal either in this case.

'''Backliners'''

Wakan Tanka is almost guaranteed to be in the front line at all times, so he'll play well with units that naturally want to occupy the backline such as Takemaru. Snipe units are also particularly effective for hitting past Wakan Tanka's range.
