Epis

Epis
Captivating Demon
Class	Assassins
Role	Main DPS/Amp
Atk Type	Magical
Position	Front
Grade	★★

A cold-blooded, hedonist demon. Using a huge scythe, she harvests the soul of her enemies. She suddenly appears in a midst of enemies, slashing everything around her.

Overview

Epis is a self-sustaining, teleporting Assassin. S1 (Absorbing Blow) is good for taking some of the strain off the healer. This is especially true for a healer like Frey who has trouble healing the whole group at once. Epis also does wonders in PVP by using S2 (Nightmare), which teleports her behind the opponent's back row. Then she can start attacking their healers and/or ranged DPSes.

Pros and Cons

Pros: + Top tier magic bursts + Has self sustain + Main dps skill ignores Magic defense + Has decent AoE + Can carry Eclipse runs with her passive + Bepis

Cons: - No CC - Easily replaceable - Can be easily countered in PvP - Can randomly draw aggro to herself after using S2, possibly killing her in arena and certain PvE maps

Transcendence Perks

Transcendence 3

Absorbing Blow

[Light] If there is 1 enemy, DMG is increased by 100%.
[Dark] Ignores enemy block.

Notes: Absorbing Blow [Dark] is very good. It allows her to nearly one-shot anyone in the Arena, and it pairs well with Nightmare [Dark] if you chose that. Absorbing Blow [Light] could be okay if you use Epis for the Mountain Fortress World Boss.

Nightmare

[Light] Mana cost is reduced by 1.
[Dark] Mana consumption is increased by 1, and upon using Nightmare, Absorbing Blow is activated. Cannot use when there are no enemies in range.

Notes: Nightmare [Dark] is the perk to go for here. You get two skills for one. If your combo of choice is S2->S3, then Nightmare [Light] is a possibility.

Devil's Prom

[Light] DMG is increased by 40%.
[Dark] DMG taken is reduced by 50% while skill is in use.

Notes: Devil's Prom [Light] is fine if you prefer an S2->S3 combo, and Devil's Prom [Dark] is garbage.

Harvest

[Light] Each stack increases Mana recovery per sec by 50%.
[Dark] While stack number is higher than 5, Mana is always at 100% and cooldowns are decreased by an additional 1 sec per each sec.

Notes: Harvest [Dark] is very useful if not a must on PvE stages such as Upper Dungeon / Story stages and especially on Eclipse

[Dark] All of Epis' attacks decrease the M.DEF of hit enemies by 20% for 10 sec. ATK rises by 2% per each enemy hit. Maximum stack number is 10.

Notes: T5 Dark - no question.
