Pros & Cons for Aoi Kaguragi (Fruits of Diligence)
Defender Focused on Shielding Allies
Aoi Kaguragi (Fruits of Diligence) is a 5★ Blunt Defender. During his Combat Skill and when Unyielding is at maximum stacks, he can grant a Shield to all allies and reduce DMG Taken for allies who have a Shield. His Additional Passive Skill also increases his chance of being targeted by Kaiju, helping his reliably protect the team.
Boosts Team Damage Through Wound
The "Wound" applied to a single enemy via his Ultimate increases DMG Taken, further increases it when Core Exposed, and boosts DMG dealt by allies attacking a Wounded Kaiju, making him a strong contributor to overall team damage.
Unyielding Buffs Attacks and Shields
The Unyielding buff he applies to himself stacks up to 15 times. At maximum stacks, his Normal Attack DMG Multiplier increases and he grants a Shield in the same way as his Combat Skill. After activating, all Unyielding stacks are consumed. Unyielding stacks are gained as follows: 1 stack after using Combat Skill, 1 stack each time an ally breaks a PLT, and 2 stacks after an ally attacks a Kaiju with Core Exposed.
| Tip! | Additionally, Aoi can increase his own Ultimate Gauge by +20 after using a Normal Attack. |
