Review

Aquarius Krest
Aquarius Krest is an excellent damage unit, finally an Ice Boy that does damage, which we've been asking for since the beginning of the game. Unlike the other Aquarius units, Krest focuses more on his role as a Counter-type DPS. We must place Ice Seals on the opponent (when they attack us) or freeze them with another character, so that Aurora Execution is passively executed. This attack does decent damage, which is greatly enhanced because Krest can passively launch it many times within a round if the conditions are met. Few units have this ability to passively launch multiple attacks at no cost. In addition, he can control with his basic attack, apply shields, debuff the opponent, and add some sustain. Highly recommended.

Pros

  • High Damage
  • Multiple hits at no cost
  • Gives inmunity to the team
  • Cheap to build

Cons

  • Need high speed cosmos
  • Can be controled if not fast enough
  • New temple, low stats

Skill Descriptions

Skill 1

Diamond Dust - Zero Light

Deals 100%/110%/120%/130%/140% Damage to a single target, applies 1/1/1/2/2 stack of [Ice Seal], and has a 10%/20%/30%/40%/50% chance to freeze them directly. If the enemy is frozen, immediately shatters their frozen state, dealing an additional 300%/350%/400%/450%/500% C.ATK Damage.

Skill 2

Ice Shield

Krest grants all allied Saints a shield equal to 100%/130%/160%/190%/220% C.ATK that lasts 2 rounds. All Saints affected by the shield gain [Freeze Immunity] for 1 round and apply 1 stack of [Ice Seal] to enemies when attacked.

Skill 3

Coffin of Ice

While Krest is alive, all enemies affected by [Ice Seal] deal 5%/9%/13%/17%/21% less damage. Enemies that become frozen immediately receive a 5%/10%/15%/20%/25% P.DEF and C.DEF reduction for 2 turns.

Skill 4

Aurora Execution

Krest tracks the number of [Ice Seal] stacks and freeze instances applied to enemies. Whenever enemies are inflicted with 14/12/10/8/6 [Ice Seals] or frozen 4/4/3/3/2 times, immediately deal 100%/130%/160%/190%/220% C.ATK Damage to all enemy Saints. If an enemy is in any of the following states: frozen, freeze immune, or was frozen this turn, damage to that saints increases to 200%/250%/300%/350%/500% C.ATK Damage. When Krest is under control effects and cannot act, Aurora Execution will not trigger its attack, but each Aurora Execution trigger will consume that tracked count and reduce the duration of her debuffs by 1 turn.
