Role Summary

	PVE	PVP		Offense	Defense
Mahakala			B	D	D	-
Pros	High Magic stats and innate Concentrate + Pierce from The Great Darkness make him a very powerful Fire mage. Wrathful Flame reduces defense, allowing your teammates to hit harder. Very effective in Democalypse boss rounds, as buffs/debuffs can be difficult to come by. His automatic Concentrate effect on the first two rounds of boss ensures he will do massive damage, amplified even more by P4. Goes through Endure as Wrathful Flame is three separate hits.
Cons	Combination of ST and AOE in his kit makes it difficult to further boost his damage. No Bulwark Pierce, so he can struggle in the lower tiers of PvP where Bulwarks are more prevalent. He is very one-dimensional, making him nearly impossible to justify in the current PvP meta.
Notes	If Mahakala is not alive at the beginning of the turn, The Great Darkness won't increase the turn count until he is revived and survives until the start of the following turn.
