+ Strengthens at 40% health [True]

• Fast attack rate
• Decent DPS
• High range
• Low cost

Cons

• Long cooldown
• Loses DPS [True]
• Slightly longer animation [True]

Strategy/Usage

Much like Zeus, Ryu is a good generalist against all enemies due to his high range and health. However, unlike Zeus, he has a rapid attack rate, being able to attack without the risk of being knocked back, even if the damage is low. His damage is accentuated further with his Savage Blow. While low at 15% (20% in True Form), his fast attack rate makes up for it.

True Form

Kage has a slightly longer attack animation, making his DPS a little worse, but nothing too major. In exchange, he gains a 5% increased chance for doing a Savage Blow and an increase in attack power at 40% health, making his (potential) DPS higher than even Eva Unit 01's in his own strengthen. Keep in mind even with the better chance of Savage Blow, it's still luck based if it occurs or not, so it's better to boost him with Catseyes if you wish to make him your generalist uber.
