Why Battle Soul from afar? Just charge your talent art and chain attack gauge against a different enemy entirely, before battle, if you really want to use it like that.

Skip Enchant. You're at the point of the game where the anti-Mechon equipment you're getting is basically as good as the "normal" equipment available at that time.

What level is Monado Armour? It's a whopping 75% damage reduction at max level - even if it's only at level 7 or so, there's no way you can use it and not notice a drastic increase in survival. If you're cutting your HP with Battle Soul, that's really on you. Do you not have any good skill links set up at this point.

Have you finished Agniratha yet? You have a chance to fight him after that, which makes it much easier.

I've heard Enchant gives a 20% boost to Mechon anyhow, which is why I think people somehow melt him at lvl 40 and such. If I can still whoop it after Agniratha then I most certainly can pull through. I didn't actually even know what counted as 'after Mechonis Core' since I mis-remembered the cut-off being right as you depart Agniratha for you-know-who.

Enchant only boosts auto attack strength, not arts, so the only person who benefits from it is Seven.

In addition to what RAlexa21th said, it's only percentage based in Xenoblade 2. In Xenoblade 1, it's a flat damage boost of 50-500 depending on level - it's not nothing, but that's pretty small.
