Role Summary

Name	Best Archetype(s)		PVE	PVP		Democalypse
	PVE	PVP		Offense	Defense	Prelim	Boss
Flauros			2	2	2	5	4
Pros	With Panel 2 unlocked, Flauros absolutely wrecks Phys Democalypse Preliminary Phase, farming an absurd amount of multiplier due to the way his skills are coded (see Notes for more details). Comboes well with Marici, as Iron Fist and Hell Leopard are considered different skills and will hence trigger Shimmer Arrow twice. Can also be used in the Democalypse Boss Phase, as Hell Leopard will confer Tarukaja and Sukukaja to the team, allowing your other teammates to hit harder.
Cons	Weak to Ice unless Teal. Does not gain true Phys Pierce unless fully panelled. This can cause issues with his innate Death Counter and/or when he runs out of MP. It also makes his Red Archetype less appealing as a result. Low Base power on his skills means he will struggle to do damage. P2 will consume the Rebellion buff granted by Hell Leopard. This ends up decreasing his damage, as the Rebellion buff is wasted on the 75BP chain instead of his 130BP (more if levelled) Iron Fist.
Notes	In Democalypse Preliminary Phase, you can only gain the +0.1 weakness hit multiplier once per skill, no matter how many times the skill hits. This is why you cannot gain more than +0.4 multiplier from skills like Ashura, Dragon Blade and MahaLantine. However, Flauros can repeatedly gain weakness hit multiplier, as Hell Leopard, Iron Fist and his Panel 2 chain effect are coded as different skills, bypassing the "only once per skill" limitation.
