Pepper Overview

Ranking Analysis
High Charge Value with Full Advancement
Can Remove Debuffs and Provide Healing
Provides 60% Shields at Full Advancement

High Charge Value with Full Advancement

With full Advancement, the Staff of Scars has a 13.20 charge value. This makes it a great weapon to pair against stronger SSR Weapons such as King's Scythe of the Crow or Samir's Dual EM Stars.

Build up charge with the Staff of Scars and switch to these stronger weapons to deal massive damage against the enemy.

Can Remove Debuffs and Provide Healing

The Staff of Scar's Skill and Discharge abiltiies are great for team play; the Sanctuary Skill attack creates a ring of energy that heals and reduces damage taken for 10 seconds, while the Swift Deliverance Discharge attack removes debuffs while also providing healing.

This makes the weapon great to use against the World Boss Robarg as Swift Deliverance can help alleviate the poison debuff the boss deals.

Provides 60% Shields at Full Advancement

With full Advancement, the Staff of Scars can provide you and you allies 60% damage reducing shields whenever you dispel a debuff with the weapon.

While outclassed in terms of damage by other SR and SSR weapons, the staff is great to have as backup when tackling powerful bosses due to the damage reduction it provides to you and your team.

Double Volt for Easier Electrify Debuffs

Going double volt elements on your weapons is great for PvP since fully charged attacks inflicts paralysis on top of applying an electrify debuff that negates your opponents buffs.

Staff of Scar's long range and high charge rate makes it a great support weapon since you can simply swap to it when you want to build charge to unleash Samir and King's powerful Discharge attacks.

King's Scythe of the Crow is a great supplementary weapons since its fully charged attacks apply the flame debuff that will reduce your opponent's healing efficacy.

Alternative Characters and Weapons

Shiro	Shiro's Chakram of the Seas is a great alternative to Scythe of the Crow if you want to apply the Grievous element to increase the amount of burst damage you can do against your opponent.
