==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
==={{Star|4}} Benten=== | |||
Benten | Benten is an old free unit who only has extended range to show for her {{Star|4}} version, but remains useful nonetheless. Her primary appeal is inflicting {{Status|en name=Bind}} alongside CP Down to enemies at good spread and decent rates. The remainder of her of her skills include {{Status|en name=Remove Buff}}, which can be useful when it activates, and gaining CP for herself by moving, allowing her to approach her CS quicker. While inflicting {{Status|en name=Dazzle}} at maximum value due to being a free unit is good, prioritizing moving her exclusively to reach this is questionable. | ||
==={{Star|5}} Christmas Benten=== | |||
Fittingly contrasting the obtainability of her original versions, {{Transient icon|Benten|variant=Christmas}} boasts a tremendous amount of power in comparison. She features three distinct forms - {{Weapon|None}} in LB3, {{Weapon|Magic}} in LB1 and {{Weapon|All}} in Default. Regardless of form, her main focus is doing damage, which LB2 complements with {{Status|en name=Vigor}}. To start, having her in None range by having another unit move her (even if she remains in the same square by the end) is supplementary for her other forms, with greater damage on the next turn and keeping enemies at a good spread still. With a Magic-ranged CS, losing all her CP is more a downside than a means to control when it activates. On move, her Magic-range form has good rate of both {{Status|en name=Crit}} and snatching some buffs for focused damage. What is most unique about her is the All-ranged form, achieved by keeping her completely still, complete with {{Status|en name=Limit}} and {{Status|en name=Ardor}} (which extends to her team). Adding to it her offensive buffs from LB2 and LB3, plus any other external offensive buffs, Benten can consistently dish out high damage across the entire enemy board. Lastly her CS, which she can charge up faster thanks to Default, inflicts a potent {{Status|en name=Paralysis}} and some situational CP Down. Overall, Christmas Benten is a uniquely powerful unit that can be considered the successor of {{Transient icon|Shiva|rarity=5}} and his Summer variant, offering All-range damage at less potential drawback and the versatility to dish it out at an equally potent Magic range. | |||
