For the sake of simplicity, this article will refer to Astaroth/Astarte as just Astaroth.

Overview

Astaroth is a very interesting unit whose main gimmick is to cycle between None and Magic weapon types through the activation of their CS. The ☆3 and ☆4 rarities are tailored for different roles, with the former being a fantastic support when None typed and the latter being one of the best attackers in the game as a Magic type. However, both rarities start off as the other weapon type, making it desirable to charge their CS as quick as possible. While in this charging phase, each rarity can perform the other's role to a lesser extent but still rather decently. Ultimately, as a free unit, Astaroth acts as one of the best mixed supports/attackers in the game, and the different rarities switch the balance of the two roles.

☆3 Astaroth

Astaroth has extremely potent support skills that activate when missing but begins as a Magic type unit and only changes into a None type with the activation of their CS. These skills include +500 HP, +20 CP, ATK UpATK Up by 1.1x ~ 2.2x for 4 turns (Buff), and DEF UpDEF Up by 0.9x ~ 0.45x for 4 turns (Buff) that are bestowed one square away from ☆3 Astaroth. This flexibility in range combined with ComboATK Down by 0.6x (excepting charge attacks), attack twice each turn for 2 turns (Buff) from ☆3 Astaroth's CS makes them one of the best healers/CP batteries/mixed buffers in the game. The main downside is that ☆3 Astaroth needs to charge CP to get to such a point, which can be done through their LB2 which gives CP when attacking. Thus, this rarity of Astaroth will appreciate some form of sustain/protection or external CP charging to be used at full potential.

☆4 Astaroth

On the other hand, Astaroth is an extremely powerful attacker but begins as a None type and only changes into a Magic type unit with their CS. As an attacker, they effectively have consistent access to three offensive buffs through the extra damage from their LB1 and WeaknessDEF Down by 1.2x ~ 2.4x for 1 turn (Debuff) and ATK UpATK Up by 1.1x ~ 2.2x for 4 turns (Buff) from their LB3. As such, ☆4 Astaroth is a premier attacker who will easily be compatible with most offensive buffers in the game. Moreover, as a None unit, ☆4 Astaroth has a skill which gives +50 CP after missing, meaning that it will take two turns or less to get them up to speed. Similar to the other rarity, ☆4 Astaroth will desire some team support to facilitate this early phase of battle.
