Is Adler good?

Adler builds his kit around shields that scale with his own DEF stat and a DoT effect that scales through more typical damage stats. His Ultimate gets an extra strike of Incantation damage against lone targets like bosses, which makes up for having fewer enemies on the field to spread DoT across.

He fits Scorch teams best, pairing with Chaos characters to trigger that Esper Cycle, since his kit contributes team damage more directly there than in Hexed setups built around follow-up attacks.

Pairs well with: Baicang; Daffodill; Sakiri; Haniel; Nanally; Jiuyuan.

Strengths

  • Shields scale with his own DEF stat
  • Ultimate adds a bonus DoT strike against lone enemies
  • Fits naturally into Scorch-based teams

Weaknesses

  • Damage output lags behind dedicated DPS units
