Tips

• Ezekiel is a high investment hero and needs really high unique weapon to be good. He is also deeply reliant to his unique treasure, the difference of having a UT is very clear compared to having none. On item sets, he goes mainly on black dragon set or manticore set. On options its just the standard DPS build ATK, ATK Spd, Crit, and Crit DMG. on the 5th option its either of the 4 stated earlier. On runes just go with either 3 ATK runes/ 2 ATK runes and 1 MP/ATK runes on UW and Crit and Crit DMG.

• Item introduction: Ezekiel's father was one of the highest-ranking Demons. Although he does not know his father's name or face, he is aware of the tremendous power of the Demon blood he inherited. The Demon blood flowing within his veins also gave him a second personality. When his human blood prevails, Ezekiel is a young man of excellent character. At other times, he is an immensely powerful and arrogant Demon, just like his father, Barbatos, jailer of Despair, manifests itself when Ezekiel's Demon blood is in full power. Taking the form of one of his arms, this weapon is powerful enough to slash through dimensions and sever the space itself. It is the physical representation of his father's power.

• Item introduction: A bond containing the mana of unknown priest. Young Ezekiel used to go berserk frequently. If anyone insulted his mom, he would allow his boiling demon blood to take over. Once he return to his sense, he would stare at this wounded arms and his terrified mom. When he was getting older, Ezekiel was getting rid of demons when he got into an argument with a bigger priest of Lua. He went berserk, just like any other day. Ezekiel was alone when he came to, and he was taken aback by the bond on his cursed arm. When he tried to take it off, he found the priest's magic couldn't be shaken off so easily.

• Soul Weapon Story: Ever since birth, Ezekiel has never used the power of his arm to the fullest. His human side could not control the power perfectly, and his Demon side has never felt the need to use the power beyond what was already being used, However, through the long journey which Ezekiel started following a coincidental encounter, Ezekiel found those who he wished to protect. The problem, however, was that 'protecting someone' required much more strength and effort than 'killing someone'. To become stronger than what he was, Ezekiel had to find his own way of using power. Since he was not a pure human, its ways had limits. However, since Ezekiel was also not a pure Demon, its way was not an option to him either. Ezekiels, wrought in agony over their power, had a discussion on one possible option: Fully unleashing the power acquired from father. No power can be properly wielded without understanding it, It was the one thing Ezekiels heard from a credible person. To Ezekieľ's surprise, the power of Demon, unleashed with a strong intent, was devastating. His claws left a long cut on a dimension. Ezekiel had witnessed such, and when he approached the dimension's scar with a surprised look, a dense demonic energy leaked out from the scar, Although he had never come into contact with one, the energy felt familiar to him. That moment, Ezekiel realized what he had done. He understood the nature of the demonic energy. From then and onwards, Ezekiel could see the power of Barbatos directly.

Story from Patch Notes:

Why? You have never seen demon arms? You know, people who bothered me… I’ve torn them into pieces with this arm. With this power…. Perhaps my father must be someone very powerful. But… Why?! Why another me is so weak! Look, even I had this power, I was getting beaten up by a bunch of morons like you! Oh, oh you are afraid of hurting someone? So, you are telling me, you are cursing this power? Gee… Give me a break! You know what? Speaking of, I just wanna kill every single one of them.. Ah.. Oh yeah… One is already dead. Well.. Let’s see… What was I talking about? Oh yeah, I remember now. Obviously, I was talking about my father… Forget it.. Just die!

Hero's Backstory

The son of Lucikiel, a powerful demon officer who brought down the republic of grey. Usually considerate and careful, he is actually half human. In battle, his demon blood takes over, turning him arrogant and violent. He inherited this power from his father, whom he never even knew. However, he takes pride in his power and does not try to hide it. Since he is only partly demon, only a single arm undergoes the transformation. However, even just this single arm contains immense power, and its certainly not easy for him to fully control it yet. If he loses the control of the arm, the only wise decision is to immediately get as far away from his as possible.
