Guide: Pontiff Augustin
In short
Pontiff Augustin is a Legendary Support from Knight Revenant with Dark affinity. He shines in Arena: a 24% SPD aura in all battles, buff removal, Bind, and team Turn Meter fill. Build him for Speed and Accuracy, not damage.
Strengths
- 24% SPD aura in all battles — always useful, especially in Arena.
- S2 removes all buffs, places Bind for 2 turns, and reduces enemy Turn Meters by 25%, or 40% on targets with 3+ buffs. It ignores Block Debuffs on those buff-heavy enemies.
- S3 gives the team +50% Accuracy and Intercept, fills allies' Turn Meters by 25%, and grants an Extra Turn.
- Passive: allies take 25% less damage from enemies under Block Damage, Unkillable, Veil, Perfect Veil, or Stone Skin. It also has a 50% chance to reduce all of an enemy's buff durations when that enemy gets a buff, heals, or has their Turn Meter filled.
- S1 has up to a 100% chance to place Block Active Skills for 2 turns and steals 5% Turn Meter per buff on the target.
Weaknesses
- Base SPD 110 and ACC 20 — he needs expensive Speed and Accuracy gear to function.
- DEF 1,178 is low; without HP/DEF investment he can be focused down quickly.
- His control depends on Accuracy and enemy buffs; the passive is situational.
- No healing or revive, so he is not a universal PvE support. Hard rating is only 3/5.
Where to use
Arena is his best home, 5/5: initiative, buff strip, Bind, and Turn Meter fill. In Faction Wars he is 4.5/5 and a strong Knight Revenant support. Dungeons 4/5: useful control and team acceleration. Clan Boss, Hydra, Chimera, and Doom Tower are 3.5/5 — usable, not top-tier. Hard mode 3/5 is his weakest area.
Stats and gear
Priority: SPD > ACC > HP/DEF > RES. Ignore C.RATE and C.DMG. Arena targets: SPD 250–300+, ACC 300–400, HP 50k+, DEF 2.5k+; RES 300+ if you build for resistance. PvE targets: SPD 220–250, ACC 250–300, HP 45k+, DEF 2k+. Sets: Speed and Perception as the base for Speed and Accuracy; Reflex or Relentless for extra turns; Feral and Mercurial as flexible fillers. Relics: Journal of Necrotos, Wand of Submission, Perched Shadow.
Masteries and blessings
Go Support and Defense trees. Key masteries from the list: Invigorated, Expeditious Exploitation, Gathering Momentum. Blessings: Brimstone for pressure, Temporal Chains for tempo control.
Tombs
Book S2 first: levels 4–5 increase the debuff chance and cut the cooldown twice. That is his control core. Then S3 for cooldown reductions at levels 2–3, so you get Extra Turn and Turn Meter fill more often. S1 last, for the extra Block Active Skills chance.
Verdict
Augustin is a high-class Arena support and a great Faction Wars pick. In PvE he is useful but not mandatory: build SPD/ACC when you need speed, buff removal, and control.
Build
The build is a guideline: the first sets in the list fit most often. Adapt it to your artifacts and goals.
