Aries Shion
Profile Update

Aries Shion is a DPS that scales his threat from his own HP pool and is built around burst picks. His core pattern is to set up Crystal Robe when need and get into single-target execution through Stardust Revolution - Awakened, and one shot any enemy. Endless Starlight helps keep that plan online by resisting control. In the right window, he can still pressure priority targets and punish teams that rely too much on damage-sharing effects.

The problem is that the current meta has much more damage mitigation, higher baseline durability, and better tempo tools, so his one-shot identity is no longer as reliable as before. Light Speed Fist adds little outside of filling turns, and his support value is mostly limited to the Crystal Robe package. Overall, he can function, but compared to modern options he feels like a unit from the past.

Skill Descriptions

Skill 1

Light Speed Fist

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Deals 100% physical damage to 1 enemy.

Skill 2

Crystal Robe

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Applies to 1 allied Saint. The crystal robe can absorb damage equal to 20% of Aries Shion's max HP and convert the damage absorbed into an equal amount of HP (only 1 crystal robe may be used, lasts 2 of the target's action turns). (The crystal robe cannot stack)

Skill 3

Stardust Revolution - Awakened

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Shion's ultimate physical skill. Loses HP equal to 30% of max HP and deals P.DMG equal to 210% of the HP lost to an enemy. Restores 20% HP if the enemy dies. If allies are protected by Crystal Robe, then the enemy's damage sharing effect (June's Vines, Divine Shiryu's Shield and Hades' Contract, but not Shiryu's Shield and Divine Shun's Protection) is ignored and deals P.DMG equal to the remaining value of the Crystal Robe.

Skill 4

Endless Starlight

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

While Crystal Robe is in effect, has a 60% chance to ignore status effects (including restrict, banish, etc.)
