Analysis

A beast adorer support that offer some ATK & DEF buffs to them. Can also helps to unbalance melee weak enemies and can offer some AoE attacks.

Pros

Leader skill is good for Beast archetype.

Fill front ally special gauge at battle start.

Can buff DEF of front ally with passives.

Has a x2 melee skill.

Cons

Mostly want to be in a beast oriented party.

Overall buffs are kinda weak.

Current synergy with beast characters is pretty bad and require specific comps.
