Pros	While alive, War Aid will prevent Pierce skills from going through Repel resistances. This is very useful when combined with demons that have a lot of natural Repels like Nyarlathotep or against popular attack elements like Phys like Gozu-Tennoh or Teal Gogmagog. Intimidating Stance is a great passive for PvP and synergizes with his low AGI. Enemy Annihilation fully debuffs enemies before chaining into a piercing Physical AOE sweep. Because the AOE is a chain effect, you will not lose Press Turns even if it misses and/or hits into Phys NDR + Anti-Pierce, allowing him to spam it without concern.
Cons	Weak to Ice unless Teal. Very high MP costs. Running Divine sets hurt his overall damage and/or Bulk. Does not have natural Pierce. This can cause issues with his AI attacking into Tetraka Shift and/or Physical NDR when out of MP or under Spirit Chains (Indignation). Stiff competition from Demiurge and Kalki, who not only have both Drain Pierce and Repel Pierce, but also incredible support capabilities. Kalki even comes with much stronger damage capabilities that Atavaka can only dream of. Attribute affinity down completely shuts down his niche.
Notes	One of few demons that can negate Pierce. He is also the only one with Intimidating Stance.

Purple: Intimadating Stance for Press Turn reduction. Especially useful in slow teams.

Support skills since he's mainly used for IS, Repel Pierce and Debuffs from Enemy Annihilation.

Support Skills:

Auto skills: Helps provide buff & debuff control for the party.
Lunar Prosperity/Downfall: Similar to the Autos but 2 in 1, however they are harder to obtain.
Epitome of Endurance: Boosts bulk + lowers team speed in order to activate IS more often.

Other/Misc. Skills:

Enduring Soul/+: Adds survivability to allow Repel Pierce to be active as long as possible.
Resist/Null Ice: Covers his Ice weakness.

Repel Pierce
	Transferred Skills		Notes: The glue that holds Repel teams together. You can replace Life with Divine if you wanna spam Enemy Annihilation or don't have Angra Mainyu. Epitome of Endurance can help lower team speed if you want to capitalize on IS heavily.
	Lunar Downfall	Enduring Soul +
	Infused Mitama
	St 20 Vi 20 Lu 10
Brands
Life + Ward with HP%.
