It might be incredibly satisfying to tap R and boost every attack the second you can, but you'll do FAR better in combat if you wait.

Though it feels as though you're not doing sizeable amounts of damage for the duration, breaking an enemy gives all your attacks - and anything boosted by weaknesses - a number of sizeable modifiers.

Simply wait, store up your BP and bust out Max-level attacks during that valuable period when an enemy is broken. It's the only way you're going to get through the late-game bosses.
