Purple Teal Purple 6 8 9
Pros
  • One of only three demons that can negate pierce.
  • While alive, War Aid will prevent pierce skills from going through Repel resistances. This is very useful when combined with demons that have high natural Repels (like Asura Lord or Vairocana) or against popular attack elements like Physical (like Teal Gogmagog.
  • Intimidating Stance is a very powerful passive that synergizes well with his low AGI. He is one of only five demons with this passive, and the only one that can also function as an anti-Pierce demon.
  • Innately gains +40% to accuracy to make up for his low AGI.
  • Enemy Annihilation fully debuffs enemies before chaining into a piercing physical AOE sweep. Because the AOE is a chain effect, you will not lose press turns even if it misses and/or hits into Physical NDR, allowing him to spam it without concern.
  • High STR and decent bulk.
  • Amazing set of panels that provide him extra damage, MP reduction and a lot of Bulk.
Cons
  • Very high MP costs. Running Divine sets hurt his overall damage and/or Bulk.
  • Weak to Ice. While not a common attacking element, it is one of the most exploited - some turn 1 teams have Bufula L teched onto Garuda just to exploit this.
  • Does not have natural Pierce. This can cause issues with his AI attacking into Tetra Shift and/or Physical NDR when out of MP.
