Role Summary

Name Best Archetype(s) PVE PVP Democalypse
PVE PVP Offense Defense Prelim Boss
Michael.jpg Michael
Teal Red Yellow Red Teal 3 3 2 2 5
Pros
  • Soul Judgement deals massive damage against single targets, ideal for Bosses and Democalypse.
  • While he has pretty mediocre MAG stats, Panels 1 and 3 help to offset this by providing him a whopping +40% to Light damage.
  • Panel 2 and 4 increase his Battle Speed, allowing him to act as the team's Speedster particularly for Archangels.
  • Panel 4 confers Light Pierce to all Herald and Divine demons in the party. This is very useful for Mastema who does not have Light Pierce until panel 4.
  • Panel 4 also provides a 15% damage boost to all Herald and Divine demons in the party (himself included). This is very useful for Archangel teams in both PvP and Democalypse.
  • Yellow gives him access to discounted Mediarahan, allowing him to double as a healer in PvE.
  • Very good set of resistances, especially in Teal.
Cons
  • Weak to Dark unless Teal.
  • No Pierce until Panel 4 and overall mediocre stats.
  • Does not have Speedster innately which in turn consumes a skill slot.
  • Soul Judgement being random target is ill-suited for PvP, especially considering Light is commonly covered by Anti-Pierce (for example Pales + Demiurge).
  • Red is not suited for Democalypse boss, since it may cause AI to use Thunderclap instead of Soul Judgement, resulting in less damage output.
  • Needs Panel 4 to be good in PvP, requiring a lot of investment.

ArchTeal.png Transferred Skills Notes:

Must be P4 otherwise he is detriment to Archangels. Allows Archangels to become faster, deal more damage and gain Light Pierce. Soul Judgement allows him to be a boss killer.
