Arahabaki is bugged?
His innate skill, Affable Hospitality, is described as: "While in the active party, allies in battle will gain the same support effects as the user."

However, this does not seem to be working as intended or might be mistranslated. I have tested multiple support skills, including basic 8 MP cost undas, Charge, Concentrate, Critical Aura, Impaler's Animus, and even support items, but none seem to trigger the effect.

Yeah, I tried it with Tetrakarn on itself, but the others didn't get the effect iirc.

Not sure what it's trait is supposed to do. Or what it actually does... Seemed really useful if it worked as described too.

I spent over a million macca enhancing Arahabaki to be the most overpowered version possible. I fused numerous drain and repel passives to eliminate his weaknesses. However, when I took him out for a test, I was disappointed to find that he was "useless". It felt like a real kick in the balls.

I think it's translation error like dawn of demise. Checked the JP version and I think it only affects summoned demon when he is active(?). So if you use tetrakarn on him, the demon you summoned on that turn will also get tetrakarn.

Active party demons are those currently in your active party, meaning they are on the field alongside the main character. This applies to all other innate skills as well. I don't understand why it would be different for him; perhaps the wording is just different between him and other demons? Lakshmi's innate skill has similar wording. Is there a difference in the Japanese version?

His actual innate skill is making it so buff transfers when summoning over other demons (doesn't work for replacing Arahabaki himself), and it applies to only -kaja buffs. It makes sense given the name (hospitality) but it's completely mistranslated.

Arahabaki : アクティブにいる間、召喚された味方の補助状態を自身と同じにする
Lakhsmi : アクティブにいる間、攻撃力が2段階上昇している味方は魔法攻撃でも確率でクリティカルが発生する

Notice the 召喚された味方 on the arahabaki descirption.. which somehow didn't get translated in the EN version.

Great, whoever did the translation for this game did a terrible job.

Here's the text that's in the fusion tool now, which seems far more accurate.

"Copies over support effects from self to ally summoned in another slot"
Fast Pooper Jun 26, 2024 @ 8:25am 
Yeah they forgot to translate some stuff that applies to summons only like the Four Heavenly Kings one that ups their stats is only for the one you summon in.

I built him completely wrong because I was going off the mistranslated effect. Loaded him up with -karn effects and charges...
Oh well.

You're just now noticing that localisers are parasites?
