Role Summary

Name Best Archetype(s) PVE PVP
PVE PVP Offense Defense
Garuda.jpg Garuda
Yellow Red Purple Red Purple B D D -
Pros
  • One of the fastest and most flexible demons in the game. With Speedster transferred, he can help your team hit various PvE battle speed requirements, while fulfilling either a support or additional DPS role depending on his build.
  • P3 increases his speed even further.
  • Vahana, p3, and p4 provide additional Evasion, and can stack with other evasion passives like Evade to make him a dodge tank.
  • Vahana and p4 sum to -100% chance of receiving ailments.
  • Auto-Rakunda increases your team's damage output and synergizes well with his Turn 1 focus.
Cons
  • No innate Force Pierce until Panel 4.
  • No Fire Pierce at all.
  • Does not have Speedster innately which in turn consumes a skill slot.
  • Very low bulk.
  • Weak to Ice.
  • Modern attackers like Odin A and Lost Name either gain tons of accuracy through Gloom and Zenith, or tons of innate accuracy, making evasion tanks far less useful than they used to be, especially when Garuda has no real other benefits on a team.
  • More or less outclassed by Hresvelgr and Kartikeya as fusible speedbots in PvP nowadays.

PvE Builds

Archetype(s)

  • Red Red: Discounted Maragidyne for a strong Fire AOE, great for getting 1/2 press turns by hitting weakness.
  • Yellow Yellow: Discounted Fog Breath for buff control.
  • Purple Purple: Berserker for more damage.

Skill Transfers

Super flexible demon and many skills can be given to fit certain situations. Ranging from support to passives to attacks.

Support Skills:

Passive Skills:

Attacking Skills:

  • Agilao/Bufula/Zionga/Hamaon/Mudoon: Cheap ST elemental skills. Perfect for attacking weakness to gain 1/2 Press Turns. You can use the L variants for an even cheaper MP cost. AOE variants can also be used.
  • Megido/Megidola: Cheap Almighty AOE.

Brands

  • Stat priorities: Speed%
  • Spell: Boosts his damage.
  • Life: Boosts his bulk.
  • Speed: Boosts team speed even further.
  • Dodge: Boosts his evasion.
  • Ward protects him from ailments for 3 turns.

Mitama

  1. MAG (20/10): Boosts his damage output.
  2. AGI (20): To boost team speed and Evasion.
  3. VIT (10/20): Increases his bulk.

Build(s)

While not as fast as Hresvelgr.jpg Hresvelgr or Kartikeya.jpg Kartikeya, Garuda is a lot cheaper to fuse, and is very flexible to use - his build can be easily adjusted to fit any situation. Great as an early game speedster that can fulfil many roles.


All-Out attacker
ArchRed.png Transferred Skills Notes:

This set is built around covering as many elemenents as possible to get 1/2 Press Turns by hitting weaknesses. Any other elemental attack can be used as well as ST or AOE versions.

Dodge tank
ArchYellow.png Transferred Skills Notes:

This set is to help against Phys oriented boss fights and Kiwamis and to capitalize on his high AGI and Vahana Passive. Also useful for Phys Alt World if you are struggling to survive attacks. Even better when paired with NekomatA for more Evasion.

Democalypse Prelim - Manual Buffer
ArchRed.png Transferred Skills Notes:

Versatile build for manual buffing in Democalypse Prelim. Mazionga can be replaced with an AoE spell matching the prelim element (note that Red already has Maragidyne for Fire, meaning Red could cover two elements).

Make sure that AI tendency is set to Support. Life Brands help influence his AI to buff, while Trail helps him to go second in his team for optimal press turn usage. Check the Manual Buffing guide to make sure his magic attack doesn't get too high, though.
