(→‎Role Summary: revise phrasing - he is not "best" in any aspect at this point, he's just budget.)

Going second in PvP and wearing Divine Brands gives Cu Chulainn exactly enough MP to cast a 6 MP Concentrate on his first action and a 7 MP Mazandyne on his second. This build is also effective in PvE content as well. (If you don't have Force Amp, Force Boost is an acceptable substitute.)

With the current meta of very dodgy units, his 100% accuracy can come in real handy to counter said units. When fully paneled, Vorpal Blade will only cost 5 mp, making it very spammable.
