Is Arashi the Riptide good?

A Shadowkin HP damage dealer for fights where he can rack up kills, like Arena, Siege and Cursed City. Riptide's Onslaught veils him, adds Increase C.DMG and then hits each enemy one by one as single-target damage, so passives that reduce AoE damage (Duchess Lilitu's, or the Hydra's) don't help against it, and each kill grows his HP.

He starts every round under Perfect Veil, which lets Nautical Assassin go straight through Stone Skin as well as Shields and Strengthen in Arena. His passive can also reflect damage and debuffs back at attackers; Arena and Hydra are his best modes.
