Character Function and Summary
Skull is a Single Target Assassin DPS that’s easy to build and play with. His Skill 3 guarantees Critical Hits under 75% HP and is his strongest skill that takes a turn to charge up to deal colossal damage to the target.
His teams are more tricky to run as you don’t really want to run HP healing characters. He plays better with characters than provides shields as those won’t affect his low HP% payoffs.
Character Synergies
Leon: As Skull wants to be at low HP% to maximize his damage, Leon turning ally’s HP into shield can help with that gameplan without sacrificing survivability.
Ange (CN only): Ange can rewind all of Skull’s buffs with her special Skill. Turning his slow setup weakness into his strength.
Important Awareness / Weapon Value
Awareness 2: This gives Skull 35% Penetration, which boosts his damage by a lot.
Weapon: This weapon gives Critical Damage as the main stat, as Skull can always land a Critical Hit this is a very strong upgrade. Technically the 4 star weapon can provide more Critical Damage but that lacks the higher base stats all 5 star weapons provide.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy character to play. Uses 1 skill every other turn.
Deals very high damage. Can always land a Critical Hit from his Skill 3.
Cons
Takes 2 turns to deal damage once.
Risky to play as you want to keep his HP low.
