Cupidus is a Legendary Spirit affinity attack champion from the Sacred Order faction, a love-themed hitter whose kit revolves around a powerful partnership bonus with Venus. His thesis: an underrated AoE nuker and HP Burn applicator that becomes elite when paired with his partner champion.
Core Strengths & Abilities
Venus Partnership: His passive, Punishing Partner, is only active when Venus shares the team, granting 25% more damage on all attacks and a guaranteed counterattack whenever he's hit — a huge damage and survivability boost exclusive to that pairing.
AoE HP Burn Nuking: His A2, Flames of Passion, hits all enemies with a 75% chance (100% guaranteed booked) of placing HP Burn for 2 turns, on a 4-turn cooldown, making him a strong contributor to Spider and Hydra clears.
Execute Follow-Up: His A3, Flameout, grants himself a 50% Increase ATK buff before striking a single enemy, and if that hit kills, has a 50% chance to spread an unresistible HP Burn to all enemies for 2 turns — rewarding him in kill-heavy encounters.
Key Weaknesses
Venus Dependency: His signature damage and counterattack bonus only apply when Venus is present, meaning his ceiling is locked behind owning and fielding a specific partner champion.
Modest Amius/Iron Twins Value: His ratings dip noticeably for Amius and Iron Twins, showing his kit doesn't translate as cleanly into every boss fight.
Cupidus excels in Arena, Dragon, Fire Knight, Hydra, Ice Golem, and especially Spider content, becoming a top-tier pick whenever Venus rounds out the team.
