Overview
Babalon
A rather old unit, Babalon's skillset has withstood the passage of time fairly well, especially with her Skill Evolution. She can reliably sustain her team with Blessing+300~600HP/turn for 4 turns (Buff) and soften enemy attacks with CurseATK Down by 0.8x ~ 0.4x for 5 turns (Debuff), though unfortunately her range does not allow her to extend the latter far. Her phase start Crit+ATK Up by 2.5x ~ 5x for 1 turn (Buff) ensures she can reliably eliminate two enemies, and past that she can still provide consistent damage through the combination of Default and Evolved LB1. Finally, her CS allows for a potent ParalysisATK Down by 0.9x ~ 0.45x, cannot move at will for 5 turns (Debuff) as well as devastating damage, especially if combined with Blessing and possibly her Crit+. Babalon's greatest weakness remains her short range and limited defense, but she provides enough to fit into plenty of team compositons.
Jiangshi Babalon
Babalon (Jiangshi) plays rather different from her base version. Befitting her role as a benevolent mother, she can reliably boost her allies with Nourishment+150~300HP/turn, ATK Up by 1.1x ~ 1.5x for 3 turns (Buff) and ArdorATK Up by 1.2x ~ 2.4x, +5CP/turn for 2 turns (Buff), but they will in turn have to sit patiently as their CP charges and Babalon holds their hands to move them around. She herself can withstand some damage thanks to DEF UpDEF Up by 0.9x ~ 0.45x for 4 turns (Buff) and supply healing like her regular version, while her CS is reminiscent of it too, though this Crit+ is likely only to reach base value. In general, Jiangshi Babalon is a niche unit who is best paired with units who have no need to move.
Highlights
Babalon
Class: Defensive Support, Glass Cannon
Gameplay Role: Damage Dealer, Healer, Debuffer
Pros
+ Devastating damage, especially at phase start.
+ Provides reliable sustain and weakens enemy damage simply by attacking.

Highlights
Jiangshi Babalon
Class: Offensive Support
Gameplay Role: Healer, Offensive Buffer
Pros
+ Can reliably buff her allies and supply them with some CP.
+ Provides decent sustain to her allies, as well as to herself with enough enemies to hit.
+ CS does potent damage and provides further sustain.
Cons
- Immobility+12CP/turn, cannot move at will for 3 turns (Buff) is not an ideal status to apply to allies, and makes for a bad combo with characters who have After Moving skills.
- Lack of increased horizontal movement means she cannot efficiently reposition allies after immobilizing them.
- Past DEF Up, she has no means of survivability and her self-sustain is reliant on hitting enemies.
