General Thoughts

Shylt is a 6-star unit that plays the Tank role. He’s very well set up as a Tank being a Barrier Mage and his skills match it very nicely.

First off to say is he has Dualcast which allows him the ability to cast Protectga/Shellga in the same turn. And that right there is just a great start to any battle being able to lay both of those down immediately.

He also has Dispel which removes all status ailments from a target so it’s a great utility move. His magic is limited to those three spells but they are perfect for the role he’s playing.

Now for his six Active abilities. He has no damage dealing abilities so Shylt is specifically here to play your defensive wall.

We already mentioned Dualcast so besides that he has Reinforce, Interception, and Destination which all Increase some kind of stat or all resistances to the caster while Destination adds damage mitigation.

His skill Reduction is pure magic damage mitigation for 15% so that’s a good defense for the magic attacks. And his final skill is Triteleia Wall, which is a 50% protect to all allies from magic damage plus 50% damage mitigation.

In his Traits, he is just as outfitted for defense really pushing him over the top. Magic Barrier is a weaker version of Triteleia Wall and Spiritual Barrier gives him an auto-heal.

He has a magic counter and aside from that its boosts that even out his stats. So overall Shylt is a pretty amazing Tank with subpar equipment but a perfect skill layout.

Verdict: A really good Tank especially for handling magic damage.

Lore

A man who was expected to become the next leader of his mage clan. A prodigy amongst the members of his powerful mage clan, Shylt is one of a handful of mages able to wield barrier magic. His silent personality keeps him from interacting much with others, and when coupled with the barrier mage custom of hiding one’s face, this mistakenly leads others to believe that he wants nothing to do with them.
