 Purple Yellow Purple Yellow S S S -
Pros
  • Masakado B is the epitome of busted demons, introducing Spirit Chains (Suppression), which disables any and all chain effects activated via passives. This includes Elusis's Blessing, Rejection, Golden Apple, alongside many, many other passives.
  • Determined Hero is one of the most powerful skills in the entire game, adding Phys Pierce, +50% Max HP, +30% Phys damage, Null Bind, as well as -1 to the count of Spirit Chains (Suppression) received. Determined Hero also casts Debilitate and inflicts 1 count of Spirit Chains (Suppression) on all enemies if the enemy attacks first at the start of battle as well as when an ally is about to act. This skill also removes Good Status effects from the enemy party when Heavenly Sword Stroke is activated, removing effects like Five Elements or Tetraja from the enemy party.
  • Heavenly Sword Stroke is the first Magical Phys skill in the game, and deals 300BP Bulwark Piercing Phys damage to a single enemy plus adds an additional Press Turn if successful. This skill also scales off Max HP, which allows you to go all-in on Masakado B's bulk.
  • Incredible awakening and gacha skills. Patriotic General is fantastic for T2 teams that need extra crit resist and a slower speed, while Ascended General grants bonus speed and even more damage, perfect for T1.
  • Panels are great and far from necessary. P1 adds Null Mortal and -1MP cost to Phys skills, lowering the cost of Heavenly Sword Stroke and Breakneck Dance down to 4MP. P2 makes all enemies inflicted with Spirit Chains (Suppression) take +15% increased damage.
  • Useful in every kind of team due to his large HP pool, high damage output and range of various abilities that benefit both T1 and T2.
Cons
  • Since all damage is tied to his Max HP, demons such as Mephisto and Barbatos can put a good dent in his damage by hitting him with Decay.
  • Vulnerable to being outsped without proper demon partners to help with defense, as Spirit Chains (Suppression) only lasts one action, meaning you will get hit with powerful chains like Demonized Form's AOE damage if you don't have Intimidating Stance effects or the enemy has PT generation. Consider pairing him with Yggdrasil on T2 to mitigate this.
