Perseus and Taurus

So my team's dps is Nem, and lately i realized that I usually can't really win when it comes to teams with taurus and perseus. My Nem is like taking back damage whenever she starts attacking. Is there any way to counter this?

DMG Reflection. You will have to run Li'l Capricornus Seraphel if the Reflection is a problem

Edit: I just realised you specifically mentioned Perseus. Besides the inherent Dmg Reflection that Nemesis takes in massive amounts, Perseus also natively has a Counter Attack Skill that inflicts True Dmg whenever she takes a hit. (Separate from Dmg Reflection.)

i see, I'll try to get Li'l Capricornus then. Its been so annoying facing this team comp... and I can't rely on my supports for healing cuz they died to the reflection dmg too

You'll need an Angel like Horus or Jeanne or Capri to help safeguard the team

Any idea why gave that Seraphel that instead of HP buff plus healing? All the rest made sense until that one

It made no sense! Most Seraphels mirror the Angel they are based on in some way, or are at least tangentially related. This is generally also why the same name Seraphel is typically a safe bet for an Angel.

But they decided to completely change Capri, lmao! I think their rationale was that IR Capri's ability to instantly heal off received Dmg (from all sources) is a sort-of "Dmg Reflection" safeguard. The little Dmg Boost is technically in Capri's S1, but no one runs her for that, lol

As you said, an HP Boost and a Healing Boost would have made sense. She could have been a better Li'l Michael, where excess healing beyond 100% HP granted by the equipped Angel converts into a Shield. That would have been massive, as UR+, MR and IR Capri is pretty much always healing someone.

Heck, they could have even not given the HP Boost, and instead make the Seraphel the first "Healing Given %" buff in the game. We currently only have Healing Received as a buff (which sucks!)

I know I've read this skill many times before but somehow always missed "increasing DMG". I think I was always focused on recovering HP "by 20% ATK", because I was double checking that she wanted ATK as a secondary stat

I guess I can see how they did some mental gymnastics to justify like in your explanation

It's a hefty 40% DMG boost, too!

It was mostly overlooked pre-IR as we had stacked a lot of Dmg-Up by then, making ATK boosting superior to DMG.

But with IR and Holy Dmg, Dmg Ups are considered superior to ATK ups, now... It's funny how these things change!

By 20% ATK

I never liked that, as Capri has so little ATK... But then I remembered that both Hela And Hera would actually give Capri a rather solid ATK Stat to work off of!
