Pros
  • Tempestuous Malice essentially guarantees teams need to be prepared for her to random in PvP, granting Dark Pierce, and by offering a chain at start of turn and additionally at the start of the first turn that reduces Dark Attribute Affinity by one level, and inflicting Poison and Charm. If an enemy is afflicted with a status ailment, she will do a chain that does a 1 turn Debilitate, and 100 BP Physical Dark damage, that also reduces MP by 2, once per turn. This skill is debilitating to teams that are not prepared to handle it. It is worth noting that if she outspeeds you, her chains will occur before Demeter's bulwarks, making them not prevent the ailments.
  • Fangs of Vengeance is a massive 300 BP Physical 50% crit rate Dark skill that also inflicts Charm, and generates a press turn once per turn if the skill is not NDR'd. Boost levels increase the crit rate of the skill to 100% and the damage up to 400 BP. Combined with a high STR stat and her Dark Attribute Affinity reduction, this skill hits absurdly hard.
  • Yellow offers a skill that protects her in the mirror match, and Purple offers a powerful passive with 20% acc and 20% dark damage.
  • High Luck helps her land ailments and also helps her hit and crit.
  • As usual, Panels offer everything she could need, with accuracy, higher chance to land ailments, an additional chain to apply Poison and Charm at the start of enemy turn, MP cost reduction, buff control when ailments do land, and Dark damage. However, she also functions very well without these panels.
Cons
  • Needs to build Accuracy or she'll miss easily on evasive targets.
  • If she's outsped, Demeter entirely nullifies all of her ailment chains.
  • Absolutely no bulk. She is incredibly easy to snipe, even with Demeter protecting her.
  • Also has middling speed, on a demon that ideally really wants to go first. Outspeeding the opponent can be a challenge.
Notes
  • On the first turn if she attacks first, she will reduce Dark Affinity by 2 because her passive activates twice. Every other turn, it only happens once.
  • Consider using with Hachiman as a T0 team.
