Strengths & Weaknesses

Blade

Strengths
  • “Death Sentence” dumps a huge single-target Wind multiplier into one elite—boss and Apocalyptic Shadow checks are where this Ultimate earns its trace levels.
  • Skill “Hellscape” spends a large HP chunk to refund Energy and advance action—the rotation wants controlled self-damage, not panic healing that cancels the state.
  • Talent “Shuhu's Gift” builds into self-triggered Follow-Up ATKs—stack management is the real rotation, not just Skill spam.
Weaknesses
  • “Shuhu's Gift” Follow-Ups only fire after the Charge/HP conditions are met—wasting Skill or over-healing can strand Blade below the Follow-Up threshold for a full cycle.
  • E0 without “The Unreachable Side” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Destruction carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
  • HP-spend skills mean Blade can soft-lock if sustain is weak or if a healer tops them up at the wrong time and breaks a low-HP / Charge condition.

Mydei

Strengths
  • Ultimate “Throne of Bones” Blast-hits the main target plus adjacent enemies—most of the kit’s damage lives inside that window, not on filler Basics.
  • Skill “Deaths are Legion, Regrets are None” spends HP as a deliberate self-damage cost—the rotation wants controlled self-damage, not panic healing that cancels the state.
  • “Blood for Blood” spends HP as a deliberate self-damage cost—cleaving a trash mob can snowball into another full Skill/Ult cycle.
Weaknesses
  • E0 without “A Thankless Coronation” is still clearable, but the gap versus a signature copy is larger than a single eidolon for most Destruction carries—plan the cone before deep eidolon hunting.
  • HP-spend skills mean Mydei can soft-lock if sustain is weak or if a healer tops them up at the wrong time and breaks a low-HP / Charge condition.
  • Extra-turn and single-target Ultimate patterns shine on bosses but stall in Pure Fiction unless adds die fast enough to proc the talent loop.
