Jin Qiu Details

Is Jin Qiu a Good Esper in Dislyte?

Jin Qiu is a True Damage machine that can devastate tanky opponents. He also possesses 3 unique buffs/debuffs that can boost his damage and durability and increase the damage taken by enemies, these are as follows:

• Convict – When the carrier attacks, they take True Damage. True Damage: 4% of their Max HP. When they take damage, the aster’s AP +10%. Triggers once per turn.
• Punish Evil – Base ATK +50%, +2% boost each time enemies are inflicted with debuffs by any teammate, up to +150% and counting once per target per turn. Base DEF +50%, +2% boost each time Jin Qiu is granted buffs by any teammate, up to +150% and counting once per target per turn.
• Intimidate – Dealing damage recovers HP. Healing: 20% of the damage. Jin Qiu gains Shield at the end of his turn. Shield Strength: 30% Max HP.

Intimidate and Punish Evil are gained when Jin Qiu uses his second ability, Pump Fatigue. However, Intimidate is only gained when his HP is below 70% and he does sacrifice 30% of his own HP to use the ability. Nevertheless, the buffs from Punish Evil are worth it and he also gains a bonus turn to immediately take advantage of it.

Before Jin Qiu uses Pump Fatigue, you’ll want to have debuff and buff Espers act before him so that his ATK scales as much as possible from Punish Evil for his bonus turn. Here you can use his third ability, Just Retribution, which attacks all enemies for True Damage that scales from ATK and DEF and inflicts Convict. Damage from this ability also scales for each debuff the target has.

Lastly, his basic ability, Cleave is also worth mentioning. It deals True Damage and whilst having Punish Evil attacks 2 more enemies and inflicts them with Convict. This makes a great option for the Avatara Equipment Set to see him counter against 3 enemies and inflict this powerful debuff.
