Review
Summary

Arhat Joo Shiyoon is a frontline damage dealer focused around counterattacks. Both passive and special skills counter enemy actions, potentially heavily disrupting the enemies. 

AJSY’s Alternium Reactor increases the frequency of his counterattacks and more importantly, grants him a permanent stackable ATK buff for every counter. This self-buff stacks up to a massive 120% ATK, allowing him to ramp up his damage to become an unparalleled damage dealer.

PVE Review

AJSY post reactor does respectable damage in coop, raids, and dimensional trimmings. While he does not compete with units such as Eve Meitner, he is a top choice for players lacking defense penetration gear.

PVP Review

AJSY’s reactor gives him the damage needed to bring him back into PVP relevance as a melee range damage dealer. Where previously he lacked the damage to pose a threat, his new increased damage ceiling allows him to repeatedly chunk the enemy backline and even one shot rangers with some setup.

AJSY’s reactor also provides him a guaranteed passive counterattack after special, which noticeably improves his survivability by reducing the downtime on his counters.

Pros & Cons
Pros

- Counterattacks are extremely disruptive.

- Exceptional damage when reactor is stacked.

Cons

- Low stats for the cost.

- Can’t hit air.
