Is Gilles de Rais good?

Gilles de Rais leans on stacking debuffs rather than raw stats: his finishing move can drop an enemy's defense by as much as 40%, and his skills chip away at Arts and Buster resistance plus defense for five turns on top of that. His third skill also applies a solid chunk of Curse to every enemy before his attack even lands, and he deals bonus damage against Curse-afflicted targets himself, so just landing the Curse already pays off, backed by an accompanying area defense down.

That same skill also banks a 30% NP charge on its own, and stacking the right Append Skill with extra charge from craft essences or support gets his finishing move ready instantly, though most of his debuffs don't carry between waves, which makes him weak for farming, and as a story-locked 3-star with a hard-to-raise Noble Phantasm level, stronger 3-star AoE Casters usually get the slot instead.

Strengths

  • Finishing move can cut an enemy's defense by as much as 40%
  • Third skill applies heavy Curse to all enemies while he deals bonus damage against Curse-afflicted targets
  • Banks a 30% NP charge on his own, reaching his finisher fast with a little outside help

Weaknesses

  • Most of his debuffs don't carry over between waves, weak for farming
  • Hard-to-raise Noble Phantasm level as a story-locked 3-star, usually outclassed by other 3-star Casters

Character details

Height/Weight: 186cm, 91kg

Origin: History

Region: France

Alignment: Lawful-Good

Sub-Attribute: Human

Gender: Male

Slightly scrawny man. Not that hyped up.

Profile 1

French nobleman and soldier. Vaunted as a hero for taking Orleans along with the holy

maiden Jeanne d'Arc in the Hundred Year War, he is uptight yet valorous.

For his acts he was given the title of marshal, the highest honor for any soldier.

Profile 2

Gilles de Rais loved art, and with his vast fortune, is said to have bought a variety of unique pieces.

He used what seemed like an infinite fortune in the blink of an eye.

He was given the name Bluebeard in due time.

Profile 3

The holy maiden Jeanne d'Arc was everything to Gilles de Rais.

She was his one and only salvation from a corrupt reality, as well as proof that God existed.

Profile 4

Reality is bitter. The time to fall to the shadows has come.

Profile 5

The past will never change. No matter his honors in the military, it does not change the fact that he is a serial killer.

However, even then, he still eternally seeks redemption.

Additional profile

In most Holy Grail Wars, Gilles is summoned as a Caster, not a Saber.

This is probably because the infamy of Bluebeard is more pronounced in the world.
