Unlock Desco in Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance! Explore her base stats, resistances, weapon mastery, unique skills, and powerful Evilities like Final Boss Setting.

Alright, let's talk about Desco, one of the DLC characters you can snag in Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance. You'll unlock her after you clear the 'I, Girl Theater' DLC episode. Think of her as a monster unit, which means she's got a slightly different playbook than your human characters. She really shines with the ATK Monster weapon, and her stat growth is pretty solid all around. Plus, she's a flying unit, so she can just float over enemies. She's a decent monster choice, but honestly, Usalia is generally considered the top-tier monster thanks to her Overload skill.

Here's a quick rundown of her base stats and resistances:

Move Jump Range Throw Counter Critical
3 20 1 5 2 3%
Fire Ice Wind
25% 25% -50%
Star Fist Sword
0% 10% 10%
Spear Bow Gun
10% 10% 10%
Axe Staff Monster
10% 10% 10%

Skills

Desco's got a few skills up her sleeve:

  • Final Boss Arises: Unlocked at Lv 8. It's a Star element attack.
  • True Godly Weapon: Unlocked at Lv 42. Also Star element.
  • Yog Sothoth: Unlocked at Lv 80. You guessed it, Star element.
  • Evil Sword Balmung: This is for Magichange.
  • Martial Transformer: Another Magichange skill.
  • Full Desco Burst: A combo skill she can do with Fuka.

Overload: Channel Azi Dahaka

Desco's Overload skill, 'Channel Azi Dahaka,' lets her instantly defeat any weaker enemies within a 5-panel radius. It's not the most game-breaking Overload out there, but it can be super handy in specific situations. For example, if you're in the Item World and hit a Prinny mystery room, it can help clear out those pesky Prinnies quickly. Other than niche uses like that, there are definitely more powerful Overloads available on other characters.

Evilities

Desco has a few unique Evilities to consider:

  • Final Boss Setting (Unique): This is her default Evility. It boosts her attack power by 10% for every ally unit within two panels. Stack a bunch of allies around her, and she can hit pretty hard! Just be mindful of friendly fire early on.
  • Final Boss Glare (2 Slots, 500 Mana): This one gives her a 50% attack boost when she's giant. Going giant does buff your stats, but you lose access to your normal skills, which is a bummer. This might be better suited for someone like Red Magnus, who keeps his skills even when giant.
  • No Escape (5 Slots, 5000 Mana): With this, any enemies right next to Desco have their movement reduced to just 1 panel. It's great for locking down enemies, but the 5-slot cost is pretty steep, and you might find better uses for those slots.
  • Super Sis Legend (5 Slots, 30000 Mana): If Desco Magichanges with a female unit, her Magichanged weapon's stats get a 30% boost. Since Desco turns into a sword when Magichanged, you'll want to pair her with a strong sword user to really make this shine. It's a powerful combo, but again, that 5-slot cost is significant.

Here's a table summarizing her Evilities:

Evility Slots Effect Req
Final Boss Setting Unique Increases attack by ally units within 2 panels x 10% Default
Final Boss Glare 2 Increases attack by 50% when giant 500 Mana
No Escape 5 Movement of adjacent enemies become 1 5000 Mana
Super Sis Legend 5 When Magichanging with a female unit, increases stats of weapon by 30% 30000 Mana

Weapon Masteries

When it comes to weapon mastery, Desco is best with:

  • ATK Monster: S rank
  • INT Monster: C rank
  • Armor: C rank
