Is Aoi Kaguragi good?
Aoi Kaguragi inflicts Windbite and builds Unyielding stacks that buff both attacks and shields, gaining stacks from using his Combat Skill, from allies breaking PLTs, and from allies hitting Core Exposed Kaiju. He also brings some shielding and survivability support to the team on top of his own damage, along with solid self-recovery.
His damage takes a while to come online since it leans on stacking conditions and Ascension investment, which keeps him at D tier despite the useful kit. Reaching Ascension 2 is worth prioritizing, since it lets him clear his own debuffs and adds a starting shield plus bonus damage against Core Exposed enemies.
Pairs well with: Windbite Amplifier Squad Setup; Party Setup for Boss Battles.

- Builds Unyielding stacks that buff attacks and shields
