Pepper Overview

Ranking Analysis

High Charge Value with Full Advancement

Tower of Fantasy - High Charge Value with Full Advancement.png
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

Tower of Fantasy - Can Remove Debuffs and Provide Healing.png
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

Tower of Fantasy - Provides 60 Percent Shields at Full Advancement.png
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.

Provide Burst Healing and AOE Damage

Although an SR weapon, Staff of Scars has one the highest charge values of all weapons. This makes it a great weapon to use when building up charge for Venus so you can place electrodes faster for you and your teammates.

Molten Shield V2 provides great shieldbreaking and tanking, and is the weapon you'll want to swap to if you want to taunt the world bosses away from your teammates while they are recovering.

PvE Advancement Priorities

Pepper 6 Star: At 6 Stars, Staff of Scars has more burst healing, higher charge rate, and the ability to grant 60% damage reduction when dispelling control effects with your discharge skill.

Nemesis 3 Star: Get Nemesis to at least 3 Star Advancement to unlock healing chain enhance on electrodes, as well as unlock the Ring Lightning passive for AOE damage.

Huma 1 Star: Get Huma to at least 1 Star Advancement to unlock the weapon's Strong Shield passive when using Seething Rage to improve your tanking and damage mitigation.

Alternative Characters and Weapons

Character / Weapon Explanation

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

Character / Weapon Explanation
ShiroShiro 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.
