Brimley

Short answer: Brimley is a 5-Star, Mineral-Afflatus Arcanist who deals Mental damage and works as a Support, Dispeller, Extra Action unit. Like every Arcanist, Brimley hits harder when you respect the Afflatus wheel, so field Brimley where the Mineral advantage actually lands.

Afflatus and Matchups

Brimley uses the Mineral Afflatus. That means Brimley has the advantage against Beast units and is at a disadvantage into Plant units. The two element triangles never cross, so plan a small bench around them rather than forcing one team into every stage. The full breakdown lives on the Afflatus system page.

Role and Damage

Brimley deals Mental damage and is built for Support, Dispeller, Extra Action duties. Reality and Mental are the game's two damage types, and matching your carry's damage type to an enemy's weaker defense is a quiet but real power gain. Pair Brimley with teammates that cover the roles Brimley does not.

Building Brimley

Invest in one carry at a time and gear Brimley with the best-fitting Psychube you have before spreading materials thin. As a 5-Star Arcanist, Brimley is summoned from the gacha, so read the pity system before you spend: a 6-star is guaranteed by 70 pulls and the featured Arcanist is guaranteed within two 6-stars.
