Kalon is baaad. But he aint Yes he is, only decent thing about him is 450% bb mod, otherwise he's pretty abysmal. He's pretty much an all-out offensive unit, with very potent Atk, BB Atk, Spark crit, and Elemental damage buff (with SP to further boost it, and then there's Atk conversion buff). I really don't want to say that he's bad (seriously he's not that terrible), cause he's offensively great, but I never had him before so I can't really make a judgement. He has nearly no support buffs, which is why Kalon has been looked down upon.

This isn't exactly true. Lauda has very few support buffs yet he is considered a very good unit. Nor does Nyami have many 'support' buffs, only offensive ones, yet she was very good and is still decent.

Kalon is looked down upon because his animation is bad and his buffs are almost all not necessary on a squad. Spark CRIT is bad, Elemental Damage is bad, ATK clashes with Ark, and the ATK conversion is based off HP - DEF>ATK is much better. Even REC>ATK is probably better.

Most of Kalon's buffs are niche, not useful, bugged, or easily supplied by other units. Offensively he may deal a lot of damage but he won't exactly help your squad deal tons and Azurai is better in this regard.
