Surplice Capricorn Shura is a driving force behind Bleed teams. Its main ability is to give an extra turn to allied characters who inflict Bleed on an opponent. This greatly enhances this type of lineup. In addition, it does a lot of damage with its second skill, which bypasses resurrection abilities.
With maxed skills, Shura applies Bleed with 100% chance on his basic attack (140% P.DMG). Underworld Sacred Blade executes 4 slashes of 100% P.DMG each, and if the target is bleeding, launches an additional 700% P.DMG strike that ignores Grace and prevents revives, chaining to the next Bleeding enemy if it kills the target. Underworld Will grants 100% chance of an extra turn to allies who inflict Bleed (up to 3 per round), adds a 40% chance to apply Bleed per attack, and each bleeding enemy reduces Shura’s energy cost by 1. Each Bleed stack increases damage taken by the enemy by 3%, and Specter Blade converts 100% of damage dealt into a shield.
It is recommended if you use these teams with Bleed, but outside of them, things get difficult, as it is hard to fit into other lineups, although it is not necessary either. Some Bleed units have been added that improve this character, but he remains a niche character, heavily dependent on certain lineups. He can work—yes—and when he does, he’s very good, with a lot of power. But he’s not the right fit for the current meta with a lot of shields, and he’s very expensive to build.
