Seraphina

Learn Seraphina's base stats, resistances, best weapon proficiencies (Guns and Bows!), and essential skills like Two-Handed Draw in Disgaea 5.

Alright, let's talk about Seraphina! She's a pretty unique character in Disgaea 5, and if you play her right, she can be a real powerhouse, especially with guns. Think of her as your go-to for ranged damage with a bit of flair.

First off, let's look at her raw stats. She's got decent Move and Jump, which is always nice for positioning. Her best weapon proficiencies are in Bows and Guns, both at an 'A' rank. Given her highest stats are HIT and SPD, guns are definitely the way to go for maximizing her potential. While her ATK stat isn't the highest, sticking with guns will let her hit hard from a safe distance.

Base Stats

Resistances

When it comes to her skills, Two-Handed Draw is probably her best offensive move. It hits a nice 2x3 area, which is great for clearing out groups. Battle Orchestra can hit a lot of enemies too, but it's in a straight line, and you know how rarely enemies line up perfectly for you! She also has some cool combo skills like Heart Ensemble with Killia, Malicious Eye with Christo (which can Charm!), and Explosive Elegance with Usalia (also can Charm!).

Skills

Seraphina's Overload ability is called Balor Gaze. It's pretty neat because it can Charm all male characters and monsters within five panels, making them fight for you for a turn. Just remember, you don't control them, and it only works on males. After you clear Episode 14-5, it upgrades to True Brionic Gaze, which lets you control the charmed units. It's a decent ability, but honestly, there are stronger Overloads out there.

Overload

Seraphina’s Overload is called Balor Gaze, which allows her to cause all make characters/monsters within five panels to become Charmed. This basically means that they will act as if they were on your team, so they will attack other enemy units. The AI will be controlling them with Balor Gaze, so you don’t have control of what they do and it only lasts a single turn. Once you complete Episode 14-5: Hall of the King, her Overload will be upgraded to True Brionic Gaze, which is the same as the previous one, except you will be able to control the units. While it’s a decent Overload, there are much better out there and it only works on male units.

Now, let's talk about her Evilities, which are super important! Her first unique one is Queen's Temper. This is fantastic because it boosts all her attacks by 50% against male units. Since there are a ton of male enemies in the game, this is incredibly useful. After you finish Episode 14-5, she learns Unrequited Love. This one gives her a 25% stat boost whenever Killia is on the map. If you use Killia a lot, this is a nice little buff!

Since she's a gunner, you'll want to consider other gun-related Evilities too. Flying Bullets is great because it removes the straight-line restriction for guns. Acceleration Shot increases your damage the further away you are from the target, which is perfect for a sniper. Bullet Set lets you get an extra normal attack with a gun, and Dual Wielding gives you a nice ATK boost if you equip guns in both weapon slots. And don't forget Sniping, which adds 2 panels to your gun attack range!

Evilities

Her weapon mastery is pretty solid, especially for her preferred weapons. She's an 'A' rank in Bows and Guns, and a 'B' rank in Axes and Staffs. Her other weapon masteries are 'C', so definitely focus on those Bow and Gun skills!
