Talk:Shuten Dōji (Caster)/@comment-35229336-20181024111747/@comment-27971189-20181024145532

She's indeed a nerfed Sheba but she's still good as the fact itself Sheba is very strong in what she excels but required a bit help to achieve that.

Shuten offers you "shortcut" to Sheba feats (an NP seal, star-absorb, counter class to Assassin with Ignore Evasion on free NP 5, Divinity) with discount skill (Buster and Arts for self, no critical boost despite star absorb).

For welfare with Lostbelt requirement, she's a fair game as good as Ryoma. Its just Ryoma have no other competitor for what he did, while for Shuten there are Sheba, Helena and Edison that you may already have on high skill level before her.
