Ishtar			C	D	D	-
Pros	Extremely high MAG stat. Panel 1 further increases her AOE damage. Due to this, she works very well as an elemental caster for Democalypse, provided you transfer the appropriate elemental spell. Her unique spell Mesopotamian Star deals Almighty damage with Remnants while auto-casting Luster Candy and Debilitate, allowing her to deal damage while simultaneously buffing and debuffing. This allows her to be used as a manual buffer in Democalypse Boss. Red's Thunderclap synergizes with this in Light Democalypse, letting her deal good damage after buffing. Gains Concentrate in Yellow, letting her nuke even harder. Panel 3 offers Almighty damage to the team, and Panel 4 gives herself a free Mesopotamian Star cast plus Concentrate once per turn when anyone on her team uses Almighty. This synergizes very well with Metatron in Kiwami fights, especially since Ishtar also has 2 Repels. 90% HP boost from panels helps her normally-low bulk.
Cons	Mesopotamian Star has low base power. Weak to Force (unless Teal) and Dark. Her low AGI can be a problem in PvE, especially if she doesn't have her panels' bulk yet.
Notes	Regarding Democalypse: Since Mesopotamian Star has Remnants, she doesn't need to go second in the team order. Ideally, she should go first so the buffs + debuffs are online ASAP. Making multiple Ishtars for different elements is cheap and effective. Despite panel 1's AoE damage boost for Prelim, it's more important to have her manually-buff for Boss. Only consider her for Prelim if Boss's buffing is already handled by someone else. Panels 2 and 3 do nothing for her Democalypse builds. Panel 4's Concentrate can be useful to improve the damage of Thunderclap, or her transferred attack skill. However, she's unlikely to Concentrate more than once, due to Boss's off-element damage reduction. The AI in Democalypse doesn't cast Yellow's Concentrate.

Democalypse Boss - Manual Buffer
	Transferred Skills		Notes: Versatile build for manual buffing in Democalypse Boss. Just replace Ice Age with a single-target spell matching the boss element (note that Red already has Thunderclap for Light, meaning Red could cover two elements). Make sure that AI tendency is set to Support. Life Brands help influence her AI to buff. Check the Manual Buffing guide to make sure her magic attack doesn't get too high, though.
