Yoshitsune			C	F	F	F
Pros	Widely considered a great Phys DPS demon for PvE as he has access to an AOE in Vorpal Blade, a boss-killing skill in Hassou Tobi, MP refresh in Mana Aid and a damage booster in Purple's Phys Amp. Innate Mana Aid lets him repeatedly spam Vorpal Blade or Hassou Tobi in PvE. Hassou Tobi does massive damage against lone targets, making it ideal against bosses and Democalypse. Teal can be used to cheese certain PvE Content. Excellent set of panels that grant him Accuracy, more MP and more damage, as well as Phys Pierce on Panel 4. Panels 1 and 3 give a combined +75% to crit rate. Panel 2 gives Yoshi Charge, Might, and a 1-turn ATK Buff at the start of a boss fight, giving a head start on damage. Panel 3 helps stabilize his MP spending. (Panel 2 meanwhile only delays him running out of MP by one turn or so.) Panel 4 gives a massive 75% Phys damage boost, but in Deceit 14 only.
Cons	Before unlocking Panel 4, he only has innate Phys Pierce on Hassou Tobi. Random Targeting on Hassou Tobi makes it bad against Waves and in PvP. Several of his effects also simply don't activate in PvP. Will have MP issues until Panel 2 (or preferably Panel 3) is unlocked. No Bulwark Pierce.
Notes	Very much a PvE-focused demon as of his July 2025 buffs. Panel 2 works in Hell's Park Underside.
Synergies	Zaou-Gongen

Build(s)

PVE King
	Transferred Skills		Notes: The king of PVE, no need for divines thanks to Mana Aid. P2 helps him spam Hassou Tobi twice in 1 wave which is a must have for end game content where enemy HP is inflated especially so for BoS 11-12. Charge can be used alongside Templar Dragon for a Charge Strat to melt Kiwami Boss' HP. Death Blow can replace EOC is you are using him in a Hell Gongen team for max damage. Teal can be used if using in a drain team, just transfer Phys Amp instead of EOC.
