Is Arjuna good?

Arjuna's whole kit chases one condition: hit a debuffed enemy and his first skill's bonus damage kicks in hard, and conveniently his own finisher move knocks down Buster resistance right before the hit lands, which alone already satisfies that same condition. His second skill banks up to 30% NP on its own and funnels stars onto Buster cards, so stacking a 50%-charge support essence leaves only a small gap before his Noble Phantasm is ready again, and because that same bonus damage carries over to normal attacks too, debuffed targets can eat massive Buster critical hits from him.

The debuff his Noble Phantasm applies can fail against enemies with strong resistance though, which guts his damage when it does, and what little Guts and HP recovery he has falls short of covering how fragile Berserkers usually are once the difficulty ramps up.

Pairs well with: W Koyanskaya team; Arash; Merlin; Spartacus.

Strengths

  • First skill deals bonus damage against any debuffed enemy
  • Noble Phantasm applies its own debuff, satisfying that bonus-damage condition
  • Charges 30% NP through his second skill, rare for an AoE Berserker

Weaknesses

  • His Noble Phantasm's own debuff can fail against strong debuff resistance
  • Guts and HP regen don't cover a Berserker's usual fragility in high difficulty

Character details

The great hero of the Indian epic, the Mahabharata.

The Mahabharata is a dazzling story where the heroes of India gather, and it's no exaggeration to say that Arjuna is at the center of them all.

Profile 1

Height/Weight: 177cm, 72kg

Origin: Mahabharata

Region: India

Alignment: Lawful-Balanced

Sub-Attribute: Heaven

Gender: Male

His favorite bow, Gandiva, is a divine gift from the Fire God Agni.

Profile 2

If Karna is the "Hero of Benefaction," Arjuna is the "Hero of the Endowed."

He was born the son of King Kuru, the third of the five Pandava brothers, and also the son of the Lightning God Indra.

Profile 3

He was a hero unmatched in personality, wisdom, and every other attribute.

But when his brother lost a bet he was exiled from his country.

At that point, he felt that his future confrontation with Karna was inevitable.

This was because Duryodhana, the rival of the Pandava brothers, was like a father to Karna.

Profile 4

He loves his brothers, and is loved in return.

He loves his father and mother, and is loved in return.

He loves his people and is loved in return.

And yet...

Profile 5

When did he decide to kill Karna?

Probably when they first met.

This was not a fate decided by the gods.

It is a karma that Arjuna chose with pure malicious intent.

Even if it is not a righteous one, Arjuna must walk that path.

Additional profile

Arjuna's heart contains another darker personality.

It is filled with hatred, mockery, and sinister plots.

Unable to accept this truth, he lets this evil manipulate him into serving it.

...Just a side story.

Krishna, who is the complete incarnation of Lord Vishnu, is a hero that exists completely outside of Arjuna's personality.
