Pros	Destroyer of Virtue is a cracked passive, granting Dark Pierce, +25% Dark damage, Rakunda whenever its Mephisto's turn to act, an extra Press Turn when Soul Levy is used, as well as decreasing the Dark affinity and adding 1 count of Decay to the enemies with the highest and lowest current HP at the start of battle and whenever an enemy is downed. Soul Levy does a 50BP Dark attack to a single enemy with Remnants, Bulwark Pierce, AND adds 3 counts of Decay, meaning that the enemy targeted will instantly have their Max HP reduced by 60% before being hit with a 250BP nuke that revive seals and ignores endures. The revive ban part of Soul Levy is very powerful against Idun, preventing her from reviving. Very good awakening skills. Extra bulk and damage, free Luster Candy at the start of battle, Null Light and a powerful Dark AOE all have situations where they can be used. P1 provides extra damage and reduced MP cost for Soul Levy. P2 grants Null Mortal and free Tarunda/Sukunda when an enemy is downed. P3 adds an extra +20% Dark damage and Max HP. Amazing against demons that have HP-scaling skills such as Masakado B, Lost Name, Hydra and Anthrasax, as Decay will destroy both their Max HP and damage output at the same time. Good against Idun as well, as Mephisto's constant Decay spam will wear away Idun's Fortify.
Cons	Weak to Light. No ailment immunity. No answer to Vanitas, even with 5 stacks of Decay Mephisto will not be able to harm Vanitas unless you have an ally that can damage it. Overshadowed by more modern Decay applicators like Hayataro, The Hero and Lucifer Frost in terms of raw power and viability. His bulk and agility aren't remarkable, meaning it can be hard to keep him alive against the strongest offensive teams, yet trying to slot him into a fast team will drag their speed down.
Notes	Decay doesn't apply at all in PVE, unlike Fortify.
