Astaroth	Any		A	B	B	-
Pros	When enemies die, he offers powerful buff control, swinging both attack and evasion buffs and debuffs in his team's favor. In addition to this, the first time an enemy dies, he gives his team a press turn, allowing for tons of press turns when partnered with demons like Shiva M. Lord Astaroth has good damage, doing 250 damage total with bonus crit rate. The second hit can also be used to check evasive targets without risking press turns. Additionally, it ignores endures, letting him be a powerful unit against non-Danu teams. He reduces Spirit Chains of Suppression counts by 1, letting him activate his Chain Effects without concern for Nuwa. This is currently his strongest use, boosting team speed while also offering a press turn, which help allow other demons to do their jobs more effectively. He has 100% Critical hit rate built right into his kit, meaning unless he's against Epitome of Fortitude or 6th Sense Survivor, he's essentially guaranteed to crit. With very high AGI, and 70% battle speed built into his kit with 20% more in panels, he's going to make your teams quite fast. Good panels, with the aforementioned MP reduction and a 15% Phys boost in P1, a big party crit rate and hit rate buff in p2, even more speed and damage in p3, and reduces incoming Intimidation counts by 1 in P4. Good awakening skills, offering AoE MP drain, buff control, damage, or Repel Phys, depending on what you need.
Cons	T1 teams built with him have to choose between speed, or being able to deal with the bulk of Heroine and Nuwa teams, meaning randoming can be risky. His damage has completely fallen off, and he often now is more used for his supportive effects. No ailment immunities. His PT gen is a liability against Asura Lord M, as it results in his team getting 2 counts of Indignation and giving all enemies 3 counts of Fortify, undoing all the damage you’ve dealt. Highly reliant on having all panels unlocked, meaning he will require a lot of investment for a questionable amount of a pay-off. No innate Mara
Notes	Buffed during the 5/29/25 data update.
Synergies	Shiva M Fionn mac Cumhaill Nuwa

Build(s)

High-Speed Impact
	Transferred Skills		Notes: Another T1 team's wet dream. Even faster and stronger than Koga, has access to revive seal, +70% speed increase, godly crit rate and accuracy and can provide more offensive pressure with Kuyo Flash debuffs and extra Press Turn generation when a demon dies (extra PT is only once per battle). Speedster can be ran for a faster team if needed. Red can be useful for sweeping and provides good defensive utility with MP burn. Divines + P1 provides infinite Lord Astaroths if needed. Accuracy boosters and Aim brands can be more impactful if facing tons of dodge tanks.
