Pros
  • Good repel resistances makes him a natural partner for Alilat and Atavaka. Fire and Light repel is especially useful to counter Archangel teams, as it makes him immune to both their AOE elements.
  • High MAG and Butcher in purple allows him to function as a strong almighty sweeper.
  • Radiant Mantra resets all buffs and debuffs at the start of enemy turn. When used in a slow team, this allows him to nullify auto-skills, giving your team more flexibility in skill transfer.
  • In addition to dealing respectable almighty damage, Path of Prominence also applies a mini Luster Candy buff, extending his role as a buff control specialist.
  • No weaknesses and a self-sufficient kit gives him full flexibility over skill transfers.
Cons
  • Very hard to further boost his damage.
  • Despite wanting to go second to fully abuse Radiant Mantra, his AGI is on the high side.
  • Requires good teammates to shine.
  • Very high MP costs. Even with maxed Path of Prominence and Divine Brands, he won't be able to spam it consistently unless Panel 2 is also unlocked.
  • Full Almighty / non-Piercing kit means he is shut down hard by Five Elements.
