User blog:SimpleorGidofter/Unpopular Units: Farlon

ANOTHER Guardian of the Gods. Seriously, these units find themselves here a lot.

Farlon is the raging, no-nonsense fire weilding swordsman who had it out for Sodis. He challenged him multiple times, the first time not succeeding at all. and attacking everyone on the other side the other times. He had only one person that he cared for, Ramna, and not even she could contain his rage.

Farlon sure seems like a nice guy, right? Let's see if his unit matches his personality: unstable and unstoppable.

As usual, let's start off with his stats: He has very good HP stats, but he's lacking in his other areas. mind you, this is an old unit, but his unstoppable power seems a bit stoppable.

His LS is the basic Loyalist kind:

Leader Skill: Burning Unity[Attack] 65% boost to Atk power of Fire types

And while that boost to attack is good, it isn't the best. Plus, there are plenty of other Units that add to both attack and crit rate, so it isn't a very good LS.

His BB doesn't seem as good as the others, as it has no additional effects:

Brave Burst: Red Ignition[Offense] 9 combo Fire elemental attack on all enemies

This isn't much of a BB. No special effects, and a small hitcount.

However, his SBB seems very unique:

S uper  BB: Crimson Wing[Offense] 12 combo Fire elemental attack on all enemies & own Def decreased by half and massive boost to Atk power for 3 turns

This may seem bad at first, but the 50% loss of defense is made up with his 200% attack boost to himself. This makes him a threat to enemy units and wipes out almost anything on the field. Still, a 50% loss of defense makes him a glass cannon. Better not use him with Bargus SBB, eh?

So, overall he is made to ATTACK! all enemies on the field. he seems to fit the lore on that part, but like Alyut, he hasn't aged as well as Lunaris.

Score: 6/10
