Is Li Ao a Good Esper in Dislyte?
Li Ao is not held in high regard by the Dislyte community. He is considered a somewhat one-trick pony with his third ability, Uncaged Beast, which Devours a single opponent to prevent them from taking any turns and receiving any buffs or debuffs. Although useful, he is not really great at anything else and you are better off developing other Defender Espers.
His other abilities. Ravenous One and Binge, do, at first glance, possess some utility with dispels and Taunts. However, the chance of these triggering is so low that it negates much of their reliability.

Li Ao Equipment
Li Ao is at his best when using his Devour debuff and as such you’ll want to increase ability cycling with higher SPD so he can get this out more often. In addition, increasing his HP will be useful due to ability damage that scales off of this. Therefore, you should look to apply the following sets:
- Wind: SPD +25%
- Grove: HP +25%
Lastly, Li Ao’s Equipment characteristics should prioritize HP BONUS, ACC, and SPD.
