Review
Clareth El Arcadia is a frontline damage dealer. He is notable for having high innate DEF PEN and a slowly stacking ATK% self-buff. This buff, while unimpressive on its own, allows Clareth to use his Special Skill independent of current cooldown progress at max stacks. Both normal and extra Special Skill casts consume the stacks, starting the process anew.
Clareth’s Alternium Reactor radically alters his kit by changing extra Special Skills casts to not consume ATK% stacks. This means that from the moment he acquires max stacks until he uses Special Skill normally, Clareth attacks only with his Special Skill, outputting absurdly high damage.
As the stacking process is painfully slow under most circumstances, there are only two consistent ways to enable this Alternium Reactor:
Deploying Clareth when his Special Skill is on cooldown
Manually using Ultimate Skill right after Special Skill
In PVE, innate DEF PEN allows Clareth to easily reach the coveted 100% DEF PEN, making him one of the better cheap damage dealers in the game until other units can acquire similar DEF PEN values through Flame Relic gear and ship latents. Ultimately, melee range means he has survivability issues in high-end content, as his damage falls short of best damage dealers (e.g. Eve Meitner) and clunkiness inherent to his Alternium Reactor makes him both a complicated and unrewarding damage dealer option.
In PVP, it is possible to make a novel team focused on enabling his Alternium Reactor by cycling to his 2nd deploy. Unfortunately, this process is long and telegraphed, allowing knowledgeable opponents to set up before the crown prince returns. On top of that, if killed when his Special Skill cooldown is about to come up, Clareth loses the burst window his team relies on.
