Talk:Shuten Dōji (Caster)/@comment-26180564-20190528224639/@comment-38038596-20190724153918

A little late, but... As a rare ST caster (all the others are 5* or story locked) Shuten is a great freeware. At np5 she is about equal to np3 Sanzang and if her anti demonic niche hits, she is even on par with np5 Illya (who's the strongest ST caster). On par when it comes to np damage, that is. On the other hand, she isn't nearly as versitile as either Sanzang or Illya. Sanzang can np loop easily and beat Shuten's damage over time and Illya is great at survival and longer fights.

But in the end of the day it really doesn't matter how good she is. If you like Shuten, go ahead and grail her (that's what I'm gonna do), if you don't and just want a powerful st caster don't bother, she'll fill that role with or without grails.
