Review

Gemini Kanon
Profile Update

Gemini Kanon is one of the most iconic characters in the game, and for a long time he was a stable meta reference. Even today, he remains a solid recommendation for many accounts because he performs well in both PvP and PvE. Galaxy Explosion still offers strong single-target pressure with true damage, while Gemini Phantom - Shadow improves his action value and helps maintain offensive tempo.

The issue is current scaling. Modern units have higher durability and faster combat impact, so Kanon’s damage profile does not convert into high-end dominance as consistently as before, even with A Heart Reborn adding utility, survivability, and better resource flow. He is still functional and useful, especially in mid-tier play and PvE, but at top competitive levels there are newer options that usually deliver stronger results with less setup.

Pros

  • High damage when able to unleash all attacks.
  • With the Awakened Cloth, deals semi-AoE damage.
  • True Damage is quite strong.
  • Generating 3 energy allows it to be used as a sort of energy generator.
  • Good for PvP and PvE.

Cons

  • Damage is insufficient for the current meta.
  • Low HP and resistance to enemy damage.
  • Requires 3 energy from the second round onwards.

Skill Descriptions

Skill 1

Mysterious Devil Punch

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Deals C.DMG equal to 80% + (3% per stack of [Determination] ) to an enemy.

Skill 2

Galaxy Explosion - Hidden

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Unleashes Galaxy Explosion on an enemy, dealing 250% C.DMG and 90% true damage. Kanon becomes [hidden] for 1 action turn after casting [Galaxy Explosion] and gains a stack of [Determination].

Skill 3

Gemini Phantom - Shadow

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Before Kanon takes action, he creates a Gemini Phantom that cannot be attacked. The illusion inherits his C.ATK and C.DMG multiplier, and launches an identical attack at the target when Kanon attacks. If the target dies, then attacks a random target instead.

Skill 4

A Heart Reborn - Awakening

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

he deaths of his brothers and comrades, as well as his rebirth as the Gemini Saint, has strengthened Kanon's will. Kanon starts each battle with 1 stack of Determination. Each time an ally dies, Kanon gains 2 stacks of [Determination] seals. Each time an enemy Saint is killed on the battlefield, Kanon gains 1 stack of Determination. When Kanon takes fatal damage, he gains immunity to death. Furthermore, healing received permanently increases by 15% and Kanon immediately recovers 10% of his HP. Kanon also recovers additional HP based on the number of [Determination] stacks that he has, with each stack restoring 2% of his HP (this effect can only be triggered once per battle). When Kanon reaches 5/10/15/20 stacks of Determination respectively, the following effects are activated in order: [Repentance], [Rebirth], [Final Battle], [Return]. [Determination]:Limited to 20 stacks. The more stacks of [Determination] Kanon has, the more times his illusion can attack. Also activates Kanon's additional abilities. [Repentance]: Kanon gains 1 Energy when he takes an action. After taking the action, Kanon purifies himself. [Rebirth]: Each stack of Determination enhances the Gemini Cloth, allowing both Kanon and his illusion to simultaneously gain a 0.5% C.ATK buff, P.DMG Res, and C.DMG Res respectively. [Final Battle]: Guided by Kanon's illusion, Galaxy Explosion inflicts splash damage, dealing 20% DMG to enemies who come before and after him according to speed. [Return]: Having completely repented, Kanon returns the Gemini Cloth, increasing the P.DMG Res, C.DMG Res, and healing received of other allies by 10% respectively.
