Tetsuzan

Role: DPS/Buff Support

Suggested Row: Front

Summary: Tetsuzan is a high-risk, high-reward DPS with team-wide utility, but requires precise awaken level progression to mitigate RNG dependencies and resource inefficiencies. His viability hinges on reaching

for core mechanics. |||

Pros

[Resource Efficiency]: Secret Skill Passive restores 500 skill points after taking Secret Skill damage, reducing dependency on external SP generation.
[Burst Potential]: Steel Burst grants , which increases Hit by 200% and ignores 50% DEF, enabling hyper-efficient single-turn damage spikes.

Cons

[Awaken Dependency]: Requires
to enter , which is critical for Steel Burst's effectiveness and Battle Will generation. Without this, resource management becomes inconsistent.
[RNG Vulnerability]: Secret Skill Passive’s one-time immunity to fatal damage triggers only once per battle, creating a high-stakes dependency on avoiding death during critical phases.

Mechanics Audit

Core Loop: Use Basic Attack to generate Battle Will → Activate Steel Burst for → Use Guardian Fist to apply and steal enemy stats while dealing AoE damage. Rely on Secret Skill Passive to sustain SP after taking damage. |||
Key Mechanics:
- : Steals 10% of target’s Damage Dealt stat (stacks up to 3 times; lasts 2 turns).
- : Grants 200% Hit increase and 50% DEF ignore. Triggers Battle Will gain on ally deaths, enhancing team sustainability.
Awaken Level Viability:

Reasoning: Unlocks entry via Steel Burst, which is essential for burst damage and Battle Will generation. Without this, core mechanics remain underpowered.
