Pros
  • Very good in Ailment Team, as Pestilence will kill any enemy after 2 turns! This is very important as Ailment Teams struggle to build demons combining high damage, ailment rates and speed (they want to go first).
  • Good synergy with a set-up based sweeper Nergal. Nergal helps to remove any barriers and poison in turn triggers his own Meslamtaea passive.
  • Very effective as a random PVP defense to catch teams without ailment cleanse.
  • Gains the strongest debuff Debilitate in Yellow, letting him double as a debuffer.
Cons
  • Ailments generally fall flat in late/endgame PvE because of inflated enemy stats
  • Hard countered by Ailment Cleansers like Daisoujou or Kinmamon in PVP.
  • Pestilence only kicks in at the end of enemy's turn, giving them one whole turn to cleanse it away or just outright kill him.
  • Requires a specific team built around him to really work.
  • P1 and P2 don't contribute to the Ailment build.
  • Not obtainable through the general gem banner or the summon files.
