PVE PVP Offense Defense
Beiji-Weng.jpg Beiji-Weng
Red Yellow Teal Red Purple 2 2 2 - -
Pros
  • Surprisingly fast despite being a dude encased in ice, making him a decent choice in speed teams especially with panels.
  • Good MAG stat and serves as an ice mage.
  • Is a good demon for Ice Democalypse in Red due to low amount of good ice users.
  • Can exploit the plentiful amount of demons with an ice weakness.
  • One of the few Repel Ice demons (in Teal) as well as the cheapest one making him quite useful combined with Alilat against specific PvE content especially Bosses.
Cons
  • Struggles against bulkier demons like Hecatoncheires and HP sponges in PvE.
  • Glacial Blast is a redundant skill that serves him little.
  • No Pierce meaning walled against demons that N/D/R Ice and Judgement isn't a reliable choice against them even at 7 MP.
Notes
  • While not exactly optimal in PvP, he does have access to Null Curse so he has decent potential when targeting specific teams.

High Agi and Luck, totaling 310, along with reasonable HP, means he can avoid some physical attacks and not be taken down so often by critical hits, something nice on a demon who is mostly a mage, and specially when some top demons in PVP are physical attackers with Pierce. Meanwhile, his Magic Attack is somewhat high, and he got high power ST damage on bufudyne, and AOE damage on mabufudyne in Red aragami archetype, meaning Beiji-Weng can deal some pretty decent damage. He also can act somewhat in a support role with his yellow protector archetype, with his Judgement skill both allowing him to contribute non elemental damage, and increasing team attack by 20%.

PvP Builds

Ice NDR demons are somewhat uncommon in the PVP metagame. They exist, but for several reasons those who NDR Ice it aren't so dominant. Thus, Ice is a element that often has to deal mostly with Resistances, and you don't lose press turns to those. You can memorize those demons who are Ice NDR, and choose not to bring Beiji-Weng. As most players cover their demon's weaknesses,

His best awaken skills for PVP, as 07/19, is Judgement (from Yellow/Protector archetype). Judgement is a move that allows him to both deal damage against Ice NDR enemies, and support his team by increasing attack, and he is one of the few demons with access to it, and the most acessible. Mabufudyne (from Red/Aragami archetype) damage is somewhat reliable, but can be passably substituted by Mabufula if you choose to use Yellow Beiji-Weng and wants it.

Divine Brands give him a decent range of options in PVP. First turn he gets 6 MP and can use Bufudyne if needed (Mabufudyne if red). Second Turn he gets 4MP, pass or attack. Third turn he gets 8 MP, and can either use Bufudyne this turn and the next, or for Yellow archetype use Judgement on this turn (and if you evolved Judgement to lvl 4, you can use glacial blast in the next). Another option is turn 4 casting Glacial blast and next turn using Judgement (in case you have auto Taruka).

You can consider giving him a skill in the 3 MP range, like Makara Break or Barrier Break, use them as apropriate on turn 1 and cast Judgement on turn 2 if you reduced its cost to 7 MP. Turn 3, pass or attack, turn 4 use glacial blast, turn 5 Judgement and renew the attack buff.
