Geronimo

[JP]
Geronimo is owns the 2nd highest AoE NP damage for all AoE Casters ingame, and can potentially outdamage the top damager Helena, in the case her buff misses. He also is able to buff his Buster damage to be comparable to that of SSRs, which lets him do decent damage on his normal attacks and NP. His biggest weakness is that while he does good damage on normal attacks and on his NP, his skills do not have any noteworthy secondary effects, and all have long CDs.

• Great NP damage, even with low Caster multiplier.
• Good Buster atk damage.
• NP has decent utility in increasing team’s survival.
• Having Card-type buffs can increase his Brave chain damage rather decently.

• No notable secondary effects on skills.
• Burst phases are long with 5 turn CDs and 1 turn duration on skills.
• Quick up is useless due to having only 1 Quick card.
• Innate Caster Multiplier still hinders his overall damage.

Casters have always been weak in offense, and Geronimo is no exception. However, Geronimo still fares better than most of his fellow Casters, being able to deal damage through a fairly strong NP, Brave chains, or Buster chains with allies. While he’s still rather limited to fighting Assassins, he at least is able to boast some decent damage against other classes in mixed-class fights, and is able to knock down Assassins reliably compared to his other fellow AoE Casters.

As a Caster, Geronimo’s NP is rather useful against Assassins. It deals good damage when buffed by his skill, and for three turns it reduces enemy party’s crit rate by 20%, while increasing allies’ debuff resistance by 20-60%. It also heals the ally party for 1000-2000HP. As an NP it’s fairly useful, but its utility rises when facing Assassins. Assassins, particularly ghosts, can be rather annoying as they can crit often and debuff your party. While the heal could’ve been better at a larger amount, the additional effects are fairly useful in situations one would usually use Casters for, giving the NP good value.

Bloody Devil B / Cooldown: 7-5
Increase Buster Performance (1 turn)

A decent skill to have for a Caster with 2 Busters. While it’s not extremely amazing, it allows Geronimo to deal Buster damage comparable to SSRs, which is a welcome feature for a 3*. It maxes out at 50% Buster up, which makes it rather useful for his Brave chains when his 2 Busters are available.

Shamanism B / Cooldown: 7-5
Increase Arts Performance (1 turn)

While the skill maxes at a 50% increase in Arts performance, Geronimo actually benefits from a total 58% increase as it also stacks with his Territory Creation passive. This lets him deal good damage on NP, and allows him to recharge his NP well in NPAA brave chains.

Guardian Beast B / Cooldown: 7-5
Increase Quick Performance (1 turn)

Despite also maxing at a 50% increase, this skill is useless for Geronimo as he only has 1 Quick card. He doesn’t generate that many stars nor does he charge his NP gauge exceptionally with it as well, making the skill largely unwanted.

Skill Priority: 2/1/3

Available from the start
Increases own Buster card performance for 1 turn.

Unlocks after 1st Ascension
Increases own Arts card performance for 1 turn.

Unlocks after 3rd Ascension
Increases own Quick card performance for 1 turn.

A QAABB deck is excellent for someone with a skillset like Geronimo, and allows him to deal good damage on both NP and on his normal cards. But at the same time, one would have wanted more out of his Quick card to make use of his 3rd skill.
