Seth's Strength

Quick Assist Deploys Shields to Your Allies

Seth is a Defender who can provide high-durability shields to himself and his party members. One of his most powerful skills is the ability to switch allies while applying shields to them through Quick Assist or Chain Attack.

Tips	Unlike other characters, Seth's Quick Assist switches to the character in the slot before him (on his left side). So you can switch from an attacker to Seth, and then use Seth’s Quick Assist to switch back to the attacker who now has a shield.

Strong Attribute Anomaly Buff

▲Even at Core Skill Lv.4 Exceptional buff with an 85-point boost

He has excellent compatibility with Anomaly characters such as Jane Doe and Grace, and can also be expected to assist attackers equipped with Drive Discs that have Attribute Anomaly stats.

Seth's Weakness

Grant Shield to One Person at a Time

Seth can easily grant shields to allies, but the shield can only be applied to one character at a time. It is not possible to apply shields to all allies at once. Additionally, a Chain Attack must be activated to apply a shield to the character in the next slot (on his right).

There May Be Few Compatible W-Engines

The W-Engines available for Defense characters primarily enhance HP and defense stats. The only one that can directly boost Seth’s attack power is the Spring Embrace, which can be acquired through the New New Eridu City Fund Battle Pass. Given the limited compatibility of other W-Engines with Seth, it will mostly depend on the performance of his signature W-Engine, the Peacekeeper-Specialized, to optimize his abilites.

Seth - Best Build (W-Engine/Disc Drive)

Recommended Drive Disc

Basic Support Build

Drive Disc	Set Effect
Swing Jazz x4	2-Pieces: Energy Regen increases by 20% 4-Pieces: Launching a Chain Attackor Ultimate increases all squad members' DMG by 15% for 12s. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.
Hormone Punk x2	2-Pieces: Increases ATK by 10%
Recommended Base Stat
[4]	ATK / Anomaly Proficiency
[5]	ATK / Electric DMG
[6]	ATK / Energy Regen
Recommended Random Stats
ATK (%) / Anomaly Proficiency

If you're using Seth to enhance DMG output, we recommend using 4-piece Swing Jazz to increase DMG for the entire team. The shield strength depends on ATK stats so you can use 2-piece Hormone Punk to increase ATK.

Double Support Build

Drive Disc	Set Effect
Swing Jazz x2	2-Pieces: Energy Regen increases by 20%
Swing Jazz x2	2-Pieces: Energy Regen increases by 20%
Swing Jazz x2	2-Pieces: Energy Regen increases by 20%
Recommended Base Stat
[4]	ATK / Anomaly Proficiency
[5]	ATK / Electric DMG
[6]	ATK / Energy Regen
Recommended Random Stats
ATK (%) / Anomaly Proficiency

You can't double the Swing Jazz 4-piece effect by having multiple Agents using them, so if you already have a character using Swing Jazz you should change Seth's equipment. You can use a 4-piece Freedom Blues set, but it's better to have 3 sets of 2-piece Swing Jazz Discs.

Recommended W-engine

W-Engine	Recommendation
Peacekeeper - Specialized	Recommend: - Seth's signature W-Engine - Increase ATK to enhance shield - Also enhances Shock and Energy Regen
Spring Embrace	Recommend: - Increases ATK and enhances support - Rare effect that increases ATK at beginning of battles - Continue shield effect by switching when hit by enemy
Original Transmorpher	Recommend: - Increases Seth's Stun stats - Effect is easy to utilize - However cannot enhance support abilities
[Identity] Inflection	Recommend: - Comes with enemy DMG debuff - B-Rank and very easy to get - No support buffs, change to something else when possible

How to Farm Drive Discs

Seth - Best Team Comp

N.E.P.S. Team

			Bangboo
Jane Doe	Seth	Qingyi	Officer Cui

Jane Doe as the Squad's DPS

This is a squad composition that uses Jane Doe as the main DPS character. By enhancing Jane's Anomaly Proficiency with Seth's Additional Ability and increasing the Stun DMG Multiplier with Qingyi, you can deal significant damage to enemies who are stunned.

Tips!	Unlike other Support characters, Seth's Quick Assist switches to the character in the slot before him. Therefore, place Seth in the slot on the right of Jane Doe.

Disorder Team

			Bangboo
Grace	Jane Doe	Seth	Plugboo

Easily Inflict Enemies with Attribute Anomaly

A team aiming for Disorder, which includes Grace who can easily shock enemies, is also powerful. Seth's additional ability will make it easier to inflict Anomalies so you should be able to apply Disorder frequently.

Attribute Anomaly

Anton Shock Team

			Bangboo
Anton	Seth	Anby	Plugboo

Build on Anton's Strengths While Addressing His Weaknesses

Anton, who can deal high Shock damage thanks to his Additional Ability, pairs well with Seth, who can significantly enhance Anomaly Proficiency. Additionally, Seth's Shield can cover Anton's weakness during Burst Mode since he isn't very good at dodging attacks.

Recommended Characters

Character	Recommended Level/Rating
Jane Doe	Recommended Level - Seth and Jane can activate each other's Additional Abilities. - Since she frequently enters battle, she can always use Seth's shield
Grace	Recommended Level - Seth and Grace's Additional Abilities can be activated - It is easy to shock the enemy, so it goes well with Seth's support ability
Piper	Recommended Level - Easy to inflict Assault and goes well with Seth's support ability - Piper's Additional Ability is hard to activate.
Anton	Recommended Level - Seth and Anton can activate each other's Additional Abilities - For Anton, who is vulnerable to damage, having a shield is very valuable - Damage can be enhanced with Anton's Additional Ability.
Zhu Yuan	Recommended Level - Seth and Zhu Yuan's Additional Ability can be activated - You can also increase damage when enemies are in the Corrupted state └ You can also activate the Chaotic Metal 4-Piece Drive Disc set effect

Recommended Bangboo

Seth - Skill Upgrade Priorities and Effect

Skill Upgrade Priorities

Skill	Recommendation
Basic Attack
Dodge
Assist
Special Attack
Chain Attack
Core Skill

Seth is a Supporter and you can obtain a strong shield if you just enhance the Core Skills. You can increase DMG and Stun stats by enhancing the other skills, but it won't help as much as you'd hope so prioritize enhancing skills for Attack and Stun characters.

Skill Effect

Basic Attack: Lightning Strike

Press to activate: Unleashes up to 4 attacks in front, dealing Physical DMG and Electric DMG.

Basic Attack: Lightning Strike - Electrified

When Resolve reaches 75%, hold to activate. Consume 75% Resolve to launch consecutive attacks in front, followed by a Finishing Move, dealing Electric DMG.
When the Finishing Move hits an enemy, it triggers the Quick Assist of the squad member positioned before Seth. Anti-Interrupt level is increased while using this skill.

Best Mindscape Cinema for Seth

Effect and Recommended Mindscape Cinema

C1	Heroism The shield value provided by Shield of Firm Resolve and its maximum limit is increased by 30%. When Shield of Firm Resolve ends, the Anomaly Proficiency increase provided by Core Passive: Protector lasts an additional 10s.
C2	Recklessness of Youth Upon entering battle, Seth immediately gains 75% Resolve. Hitting an enemy with Basic Attack: Lightning Strike - Electrified increases the move's accumulated Electric Anomaly Buildup by 35%.
C3	Slow Reflexes Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack Lv. +2
C4	Core Aspiration The Daze caused by Defensive Assist: Thundershield is increased by 25%.
C5	Distant Admiration Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack Lv. +2
C6	Idealist When Seth lands a Finishing Move on an enemy with Basic Attack: Lightning Strike - Electrified, it deals additional damage equal to 500% of his ATK. The attack is guaranteed to trigger a critical hit, and CRIT DMG is increased by 60%.

C1 is Recommended

Seth gets an Anomaly Proficiency buff and stronger shield at C1, making him a lot more easier to use. C2, 4 and 6 also enhance Anomaly, Stun and DMG stats but C1 makes him more powerful in any kind of team.
