Grand Pope Sage is a buffer, debuffer, control, support, and healer unit. He has an interesting skill set, but it is complex to understand and use, which limits his participation in PvP somewhat. This is the case with many units in the game.

In this case, we have Athena's Seals. As we distribute them throughout the game, we can activate things while debuffing enemies and keeping them under control. We can also do some damage at the end of the round and even heal an ally. It's not a very extensive kit, but it's very circumstantial; each effect must appear at a given moment. That said, it has been seen a lot in Jamir thanks to a passive skill that increases her speed by 200 points at the start of the round.

Pros

Very effective when used correctly.
Can control, heal, damage, debuff, etc. A Swiss Army knife.

Cons

Can be complicated to use the whole kit.

Skill Descriptions

Skill 1

Athena's Amulet

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Deals 50% C.ATK as C.DMG to a target and adds 1 stack of [Athena's Seal] to that target.

Skill 2

Amulet Cage

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Selects an enemy, adds 1 stack of [Athena's Seal] to them, and activates the Amulet Cage for 2 rounds. While the cage is active, the enemy's attack damage is reduced by 10% of Sage's C.ATK. Additionally, if an ally's HP is below 60% before activating the cage, purifies their debuffs and heals them for 40% of Sage's C.ATK (This effect triggers only once per Saint's round).

Skill 3

Praesepe Underworld Waves

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Sage strips the soul from the target Saint, reducing their P.DMG Res and C.DMG Res by 10%. At the end of the round, if there are targets in a stripped state, absorbs all unused Energy from both sides, dealing C.ATK *40% of the energy absorbed as C.DMG to all stripped characters. If a target is killed, also performs a Pursuit to deal 30% of this damage to all enemies.

Skill 4

Power of the Sacred Closet

Lv1Lv2Lv3Lv4Lv5

Upon entering battle, Sage's SPD is increased by 40. Each stack of [Athena's Seal] reduces the target's P.ATK and C.ATK & P.DEF and C.DEF by 1%, up to 4 stacks (permanent and cannot be purified).
