Best Builds For Seth
Seth is an Electric Defense character, making him the perfect addition to any teamlooking for additional protectionand support.
As a member of the Criminal Investigation Special Response Team, he’s an upstanding member of the community andpairs well with characters like Zhu Yuan and Qingyi.
The downside is that Sethneeds to be on the field for a timeto activate his abilities, and his full potential is locked behind the Mindscape abilities, but this weakness is outweighed by hisprotection capabilities and low-investment optimization. Below are the best W-Engines for him to use:
1
Peacekeeper - Specialized
As Seth’s signature W-Engine, Peacekeeper - Specialized is the optimal equipment for him. While Seth’s shielded is up on any squad member, Energy REgen is increased. Anomaly Buildup for Special Attacks and Assists are increased as well, making this equipment a vital asset to any well-organized team.
2
Spring Embrace
This W-Engine reduces DMG taken and increases Seth’s Energy Generation Rate when attacked. When he switches off-field, the buff is transferred and refreshed. When paired with Seth’s skills, this can create powerful combos.
3
Bunny Band
This W-Engine increases Seth’s max HP while also increasing attack while shielded, which works well since he can almost always put his shields up.
4
Original Transmorpher
Max HP is increased with this W-Engine equipped, but Seth will also gain an increase to his Impact stat when attacked. Since he’s shielded and can reduce the damage taken, it’s worth giving him this W-Engine to ensure that you make the most of taking damage.
