(Role Summary: Panel 1 boosts speed too. Most Heralds don't have any Light Pierce, so Mastema is not notable since he at least gets it eventually. Removed speedster con as he has 70% speed boost.)
(Role Summary: Adjust light pierce note as the situation has changed. Combine p4 points and change "good" to "usable" in PvP (F/F is clearly not good))

Pros
  • Soul Judgement deals massive damage against single targets, ideal for Bosses and Democalypse.
  • While he has pretty mediocre MAG stats, Panels 1 and 3 help to offset this by providing him +40% to Light damage.
  • Panels 1, 2, and 4 increase his Battle Speed by 70% in total, allowing him to act as the team's Speedster particularly for Archangels.
  • Panel 4 confers Light Pierce to all Herald and Divine demons in the party. This is very useful, as most demons of those races have Light spells, but several don't have Light Pierce (specifically Mastema pre-P4, Red Metatron, and demons 4-star or below).
  • Panel 4 also provides a 15% damage boost to all Herald and Divine demons in the party (himself included). This is very useful for Archangel teams in both PvP and Democalypse.
  • Yellow gives him access to discounted Mediarahan, allowing him to double as a healer in PvE.
  • Very good set of resistances, especially in Teal.
Cons
  • Weak to Dark unless Teal.
  • Expensive to fuse (only 5+5 fusion paths are available).
  • No Pierce until Panel 4 and overall mediocre stats. He really needs P4 to be usable at all in PvP, requiring a lot of investment.
  • Mostly helps as a speedy demon that might help trigger Aniel without chain effects triggering Demeter in PVP.
  • Soul Judgement being random target is ill-suited for PvP, as it is a liability against Demeter.
  • Red is not suited for Democalypse boss, since it may cause his AI to use Thunderclap instead of Soul Judgement, resulting in less damage output.
