Being a duo character with a tag-team playstyle, Lu and Ciel do not share mana and also have a special system known as '''Combination'''. When either Lu or Ciel is tagged out, the inactive character will rapidly recover 6 MP per second (1 MP in PvP). Lu and Ciel have a fourth resource known as the '''Combination Gauge''', which is used exclusively for Combination Skills and can only be filled when the player switches through a normal combo or a skill.

Having a duo character play-style, players have access to a special mechanic only available known as '''Switching'''. Players can play as either Lu or Ciel in both towns and dungeons, and change between them via pressing [[File:Switching.png]] '''V''' (default key and only available where combat is possible), combos, or skills. When switching via the '''V''' key, the character switching out cannot be hit, but the character switching in can be hit and the [[Combination|combination gauge]] will not be filled. Cooldown time for '''V''' key is 1 second.  
Players will have access to a special mechanic known as '''Switching''' to allow them to play as either Lu or Ciel in both towns and dungeons, and you can change between them via pressing [[File:Switching.png]] '''V''' (default key and only available where combat is possible), combos or skills in dungeons, or the character window in towns. When switching via the '''V''' key, the character switching out will be invincible, while the character switching in will be in Super Armor. Cooldown time for '''V''' key is 1 second.
In addition, Lu and Ciel have a fourth resource known as the '''Combination Gauge''', which is used for certain skills and can typically only be filled when the player lands a successful hit by switching through a normal combo or a skill.

== Tips and Details ==
*'''Lu''' and '''Ciel''' share their armor and weapon, but costumes and accessories are separate between the two.
*'''Lu''' and '''Ciel''''s stats can be toggled to be either separate, or based on a "representing" character. You are able to choose which to apply through the Representing Stats button in the character UI, and can change this at any time outside of dungeons. By default, the Representing Stats is set to Lu.
**When the Representing Stats is set to separate, their stats will be completely independent of each other. When it is set to Lu or Ciel, only that character's stats will be applied to both characters simultaneously, leaving the other character's costumes and accessories to be merely for aesthetics. There is one exception to this, however:
***The HP stat is always shared across both. This includes sockets, non-set bonuses (which are reflected in the status window) and set bonuses (which are not).
*You will always start out as '''Lu''' when entering PvP or dungeons.
*You will always start out as '''Lu''' when entering PvP or dungeons.
**If Representing Stats is set to '''Lu/Ciel''', [[Ring of Fury]] will only recover Awakening Beads if '''Lu''' is wearing it.  Otherwise, it must be worn by the representing character.
**If Representing Stats is set to '''Lu/Ciel''', [[Ring of Fury]] will only recover Awakening Beads if '''Lu''' is wearing it.  Otherwise, it must be worn by the representing character.
*'''Lu''' and '''Ciel''''s stats can be toggled to be either separate or unified. Their stats can both be completely independent of each other, have only '''Lu''''s stats apply to both characters, or have only '''Ciel''''s stats apply to both characters. By default, it is set to Lu only.
*When using Skill Rings, if the Representing Stats is set to separate, Switching Skills will always apply the ring of the character being switched to. For example, wearing a Ring of Tenacity on '''Lu''' will always increase the damage of [[Stomp]], even if you start the skill while on '''Ciel'''.
*'''Lu''' and '''Ciel''' share equipment but do not share costumes or accessories. However, you are able to share common accessories appearance with the [[Magic Wardrobe]].
**Any attack or defense increases, with the exception of accessory/costume set effects, are still shared, even though the status window does not display this.
**Likewise, HP sockets and non-set bonuses are also shared, though these do show in the status window properly.
***Unlike attack or defense, HP also still shares through set effects. Unlike the HP increases from other sources, this is again not displayed in the status window.
*When using Skill Rings, if their stats are set to separate, Switching Skills will always apply the ring of the character being switched to. For example, wearing a Ring of Tenacity on '''Lu''' will always increase the damage of [[Stomp]], even if you start the skill while on '''Ciel'''.
**For Combination Skills and certain Actives, the skill ring of the character that casts the skill is taken into account. Switching while the skill is still on-going (such as while [[Eschaton]] is traveling or [[Shadow]] is installed) will not affect the skill's damage.

**Other sources of skill damage increase, such as through set effects, will apply to a skill for as long as that character is in play. Switching during the skill will change the damage to fit the current character.

**The contract sigil further embellishes the star with a ring and a set of diamonds passing through it. Its design is also adjusted depending on the path.
***This sigil is engraved on Lu's back and Ciel's chest, as shown in their prologue scenes, with the ring split in half, with Lu having the top half and Ciel the bottom half. It is rarely ever visible however, and many costume sets that expose this part of their body even exclude it entirely.

*Interestingly, the class icons of the two paths that fight together ([[Catastrophe]]/[[Innocent]]) and the two paths that have one take full control ([[Diangelion]]/[[Demersio]]) have both characters of one of said paths face the other way as both characters of the other of said paths, creating a sort of symmetry in their designs.

*Before the 02/12/2015 KR patch, Lu/Ciel's skills had much higher MP costs to compensate for the fact they have 2 separate MP bars, as well as [[Call to Arms]] increasing potion efficiency. Tenacity skills used to cost 150 MP, while Strength skills used to cost 300 MP.

*While other characters all gain at least 2 command extensions upon advancing to their 3rd Job Class, Lu/Ciel only receive one that simply varies slightly between Lu and Ciel, and they are not considered separate commands in the Command UI.

When '''Lu''' is in town or when she is performing expressions, the gauntlet shrinks down to the size of a glove.
