X is a 5-star Intellect-type Arcanist in Reverse 1999, meaning he deals 30% more damage to Spirit-type enemies and is also weak against the same. He is a DPS unit with Control and Dispeller tags. This 5-star specializes in canceling enemies’ buffs while dealing significant Reality damage. At Insight I, X inflicts Silence, which refrains enemies from using buff, debuffs, heals, or counters.
He can also cancel Moxie from all enemies using his Ultimate. X’s kit is built to Support his allies by dispelling any buffs or counters from foes.
That being said, this article discusses X’s skill in detail, and provides the best Psychubes recommendations, his Insight materials, and the best teammates to aid him in Reverse 1999.
X’s skills breakdown in Reverse 1999
X can dispel enemies’ buffs, debuffs, counters, and heals with his incantation skills with two and three-star cards. His basic incantation attacks a single target, and Ultimate attacks all enemies on the field. Here are the details of his incantation skills:
Anode and Cathode: X deals 200% Reality damage with a one-star card, 250% with a two-star, and 450% with a three-star. Additionally, he can dispel all Stats Up and Pos Status from the enemy with two and three-star cards.
Coffee or Tea: With a one-star Coffee or Tea incantation skill, X deals Reality damage on one enemy. X dispels all Counter from the target with two and three-star cards.
Minimalism and Maximalism: X deals 250% Reality damage on all enemies and reduces their two Moxie.
While X can dispel positive status effects, one must merge his cards to upgrade their stars. He can inflict Silence at Insight I after casting his basic incantation skills. It is recommended to upgrade him to at least Insight I to make the most of his potential.
On the other hand, his Ultimate can cancel enemies’ Ultimate by reducing their Moxie. It can come in handy when fighting with robust bosses. Additionally, his Intellect makes him advantageous against elite enemy bosses because they usually possess Spirit Afflatus.
