Role Summary

Name	Best Archetype(s)		PVE	PVP		Democalypse
	PVE	PVP		Offense	Defense	Prelim	Boss
Kartikeya			5	4	4	2	2
Pros	Fastest demon in the game especially when passive is maxed, allowing you to hit battlespeed requirements in PvE easily. Skanda proides teamwide Accuracy and Crit chance boost. Mortal Jihad plus Great Aim means he will rarely miss, while having a good crit rate to generate Press Turns for your team. No weaknesses and innate Speedster gives him great flexibility over transfer slots and lets him fulfill a variety of roles.
Cons	No innate Pierce means he will have trouble with Repel Physical effects (notably Tetraka Shift), unless you inherit Phys Pierce (weak). Very expensive to Fuse.
Notes	Difficult to Panel due to Clear demons only giving 60 spirits. Works very well in Turn 1 teams like Hero Masakado T1.

PvE Builds

Archetype(s)

• Clear: Can only be clear. Speedster for more speed.

Skill Transfers

Support skills since he's used for his super high speed and Skanda passive.

Support Skills:

• Autos: Provides buff control. More useful in AG and modern kiwmamis (1 wave only)
• Solar Prosperity/Downfall: Similar to Autos but 2 in 1. Useful in all PVE content since they activate every 1st turn as long as you go first.
• Epitome of Swiftness: Boosts team speed further.
• Offensive Cry: Provides a guaranteed offensive buff swing
• Acid Breath/War Cry: Used for the DEF reduction. Acid Breath is much better as it also reduces EV/AC so teammates can land hits. War Cry can be used if you want to survive attacks.
• Agility Amp 1/2/3: Early game/budget option.
• -Kaja skills: Early game/budget option.

Other/Misc. Skills:

• Phys Pierce (Weak): Allows him to hit into demons with Phys NDRs so he can crit. Not as useful if used in Hell Gongen.

Brands

• Stat priorities: Speed%

• Speed: Boosts team speed even further

Mitama

1. STR (20): Boosts his damage output.
2. AGI (20): To boost his accuracy and team speed.
3. LUK (10): Increases his chances of landing crits and his chances of landing hits.

Build(s)

Gotta go fast!
	Transferred Skills		Notes: Fastest demon in the game (if Skanda's skill level is maxed out). Making him a key demon in end game phys teams as they want to end fights quickly and his passive increases team crit rate + accuracy (even more if P3!). Solar Downfall for the 1 turn Acid breath every wave. Offensive Cry for the offensive buff swing especially against bosses with Fast/Auto Luster or Debilitate. You can use any combo of auto/solar skill + manual buff/debuff skill as long as you get an ATK & EV/AC party buff and DEF & EV/AC enemy debuff.
