Jade vs Uriel
Same Support / Healer fantasy — which support kit fits your squad and mission rota?
TL;DR — Quick Pick
Pick Jade if…
- You want the squad gap filled by Jade's vibe — Become enraptured by the song of devastation.
- This slot should feel like Light's Judgment, Symphony Of Mercy, and Glory On High, not a reskin of Uriel's Infernalis, Remedium, and Brimstone.
- You're buying into Jade's passive — jade's profound understanding of the relationship between life and death grants her two Aura Mod….
Pick Uriel if…
- You're sold on Uriel's fantasy (To fight as the Heretic of Xata is to have demons at your back) more than another Support / Healer option.
- Jade's pitch (“Become enraptured by the song of devastation”) isn't what you're missing — Demonium is.
- You're buying into Uriel's passive — uriel commands, empowers, and protects three unique demons.
Verdict
Both fill the Support / Healer lane. Lean Jade for Ophanim Eyes and Ophanim Eyes; lean Uriel for Demonium and Demonium. Mission Usefulness is a wash — decide on kit feel and passive, not the rating table.

When Each Shines
Jade
- Ophanim Eyes carries mid-mission casts; Glory On High is the density payoff.
- Mod focus stays on match the priority to your main ability so the cast loop doesn't fall over mid-rota.
- Dense spawns where Jade's cast cadence outpaces gun-only clears.
Uriel
- Demonium carries mid-mission casts; Brimstone is the density payoff.
- Fights where Heat stays painted on packs so Uriel's Affinity-Range Strength passive stacks.
- Dense spawns where Uriel's cast cadence outpaces gun-only clears.
Mod Scaling Focus
Jade
Match the priority to your main ability — Strength or Duration first for most kits, then Efficiency, then Range.
- STR
- Raises damage and effect potency across Jade’s Strength-scaling abilities.
- DUR
- Extends channeled / timed effects — often comfort on Jade if the kit leans on buffs or zones.
- RNG
- Helps radius / targeting tools. Dump it if Jade is mostly self-buff or exalted weapons.
- EFF
- Keeps ability uptime comfortable, especially on longer Steel Path missions.
