Notes

  • Needs to be limping (Low HP) to deal great damage
  • Heavily reliant on Eidolons to be able to properly use a berserker like build
  • A2 Recovers HP when HP is below 30% And Defeats an enemy 
  • E2 dispels debuffs and increases skill damage
  • E4 Fatal shot protection
  • E6 Massive boost to ult AoE capability and ult damage increase

Early thoughts and analysis

Arlan has a berserker like build, he requires low hp to deal good damage. He’s easily prone to faint without his E4, this makes him difficult to use at lower Eidolons. His E6 makes him a hard hitting AoE capable character. Using him requires HP management and can deal very good damage when used properly. His skill consumes HP% instead of a skill point, which grants him some flexibility in teams.
