Review

Arius is one of the few healers in the game. She specializes in healing and applying barriers to all allies, which makes her great in Raids.

Sadly, she's not used as much as Evelyn, Claudia, or Chinatsu (after her recent buffs) in PVP, because her healing output is way lower than the other healers. She exchanges pure healing potential for CC abilities, barriers, and buffs, and due to this is more suited toward PVE.

Pros & Cons
Pros

- can do everything, heal, buff, barrier, and CC,

- easy to MLB her as she's a farmable SR.

Cons

- lower healing output than other healers.
