  • Purple gives him Force Amp, which is valuable when aiming to use Ouas as a force attack. Teal covers his weakness, while Clear gives him an AOE skill in Titanomachia.
  • Good set of panels that provide him damage, bulk and MP reduction. Also easy to fuse with 4x4 fusion paths.
    • With P1, P4, and Purple archetype, he can reach 40% Phys damage up and 65% Force damage up before transfers.
  • 100% HP boost from panels helps make up for his low VIT.
Cons
  • Pierce is only on Ouas, so Clear's Titanomachia will not pierce.

PvE Builds

Archetype(s)

Skill Transfers

Damage boosters to allow Seth to dish out tons of damage. Choose between Phys or Force damage for Ouas (it pierces either way, so you're unlikely to need both in a single fight). Accuracy Boosters can help fix his shaky accuracy, especially when using Ouas.

Other/Misc. Skills:

  • Null Fire: Adds a fire immunity if not running Teal.

Brands

  • Stat priorities: Phys ATK%, Phys AC%
  • War: Boosts his damage.

  • Aim: Boosts his accuracy.
  • Speed: Boosts team speed if needed.

  2. AGI (20): Boosts team speed and his accuracy.

Build(s)

Charge Seth the Boss Slayer
ArchTeal.png Transferred Skills Notes:

The famous Charge Seth. Seth is fully accessible for all players and can replace OseH, Asura Lord, etc. if you do not have them. Charge + Templar Dragon melts HP bars (with pierce) and as a plus, he heals 50% of the damage dealt which is basically a huge amount if built correctly.

A Force to be reckoned with
ArchPurple.png Transferred Skills Notes:

Capitalize on Purple providing Force Amp for Ouas' Force version, allowing him to get stacked with more modifiers than a Phys build. Charge can still be used for massive damage. If not hitting into a Force weakness, Force Enhancement can be swapped out for Master Assassin.
