Guide: Pitiless One

In short

Pitiless One is an Epic Attack champion from his faction with Magic affinity, and his whole kit revolves around critical hits: crits fill his Turn Meter, heal him, and give the whole team +19% Critical Rate. Overall rating 2.0 — he is a vault and fusion champion, not worth investing in.

Strengths

The passive gives allies +19% Critical Rate in all battles — a free bonus for any team.
His A1 hits twice and each crit fills his Turn Meter by 5%, so at 100% C.RATE he barely sits idle.
A2 is an AoE at 4×ATK, each crit gives +15% Turn Meter, and at level 6 it also loses 1 turn of cooldown.
Same passive heals him for 15% of the damage dealt by crits — some survivability without Lifesteal.
In Faction Wars (3.5/5) he pulls his weight as a wave-clearer with a crit aura.

Weaknesses

Weak base stats: 1,443 ATK, 94 SPD, 771 DEF — neither a real nuker nor a tank.
No debuffs at all, so ACC is useless on him — in Clan Boss and Hydra (1.0) he is dead weight.
All his value depends on Critical Rate: without 100% C.RATE the passive and Turn Meter boosts never trigger.
Low ratings in Doom Tower, Hard mode and Chimera (1.0–2.0) — endgame content has no place for him.

Where to use

Best home is Faction Wars (3.5/5), where he clears waves with his AoE and buffs the team's Critical Rate. Arena (3.0/5) works with him as a secondary nuker or crit-aura support. Dungeons and Chimera are 2.0/5 — only with very good gear. Clan Boss, Hydra, Hard mode and Doom Tower are 1.0/5, don't bother.

Stats and gear

Priority: Critical Rate at exactly 100% (this is the foundation), then ATK (3,000+), C.DMG (150–200%+), SPD 170–200. ACC and RES are pointless — he has no debuffs. Sets: Speed plus Savage or Cruel; Offense is fine early. Gauntlets with C.RATE or C.DMG, amulet with C.DMG, boots with SPD.

Masteries and blessings

Go down the Offense tree: Pierce Defenses, Foekiller, Piercing Strike and Bloodthirsty Prowess — all aimed at crit damage. From the relic list the build uses Malefic Talon and Gorecrescent. Skip blessings entirely: he is a vault champion, save your essence.

Tombs

The only booking that matters is A2 to level 6 for the −1 cooldown. Per the author's verdict, don't spend tomes on him at all.

Verdict

To the vault (fusion). Don't build him — neither his damage nor his base stats justify the investment, apart from the crit aura for Faction Wars.
