Character Function and Summary
Soy is a Debuffer that’s wearing Tank’s clothes. While the game labels him as a Guardian, in practice he plays more like a Saboteur with how many Defense debuffs he can inflict.
In terms of being a Guardian, Soy has an increased chance of being attacked but it is very inconsistent and should not be relied upon. He can also heal and increase the party’s Max HP in a pinch.
Where Soy really shines is his many Defense Down debuffs. He can do that from his Skill 2, Gun Attack and 5 star weapon. He has one of the best Gun Attack in the game as it can also inflict a Defense Down debuff and has so many shots you’re almost always going to get an All-Out Attack afterwards.
Character Synergies
Skull: Soy can inflict heavy Defense Down debuffs which is key in maximizing damage.
Wind (CN only): As Wind mostly plays with downing foes and All-Out Attack, Soy’s Gun Attack can help with that gameplan.
Important Awareness / Weapon Values
Awareness 6: All of Soy’s Awareness provide little boost to his debuff capabilities, this Awareness at least can increase his most used skill’s damage.
Weapon: This weapon gives Soy even more Defense Down, while good it’s worth noting this weapon has a hidden 1 turn cooldown and has a trigger condition that can fail.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Strongest ST Defense Down character in 1.0.
Powerful Gun Attack with a debuff, can get this debuff again after unlocking Kira’s Synergy Skill to reload guns in combat in later versions.
Cons
Doesn’t work well as a sustain character.
