Weapons
Shield + Zonai Flame Emitter
It’s a great tool for crowd control, melting ice, and lighting fires.

Shield + Zonai Cannon
Another good idea for crowd control and catching enemies by surprise; just remember that it shoots in intervals.

Utility
Shield + Zonai Light
If you run out of lightbloom seeds, this is invaluable in getting around depths and dark caves. It reduces your mobility a little bit, but hey, life is the art of compromise!
