How to play Yujin in The First Descendant
Yujin is one of the best Descendants in the shooter as you go into the late game. In the early Master Ranks, you will not need much healing or support skills. However, once you and your party start going for the more difficult encounters, healers will become all the more important.
Yujin’s playstyle revolves more around healing his teammates and debuffing enemies instead of being a DPS threat. To master him, you will need to constantly be aware of what is happening around you in the arena.
Every time your skills are up always look to buff your allies by improving their resistances or debuff the enemy by lowering their defense and increasing the amount of damage that you do to the enemy.
Here are some of the Pros and Cons of playing Yujin in The First Descendant:
Pros:
- One of the best support Descendants in the game.
- Debuffs enemies allowing the rest of the team to deal more damage to them.
- Buffs allies to increase their damage resistances.
Cons:
- Not a good pick in the early stages of the game.
- Lacks damage and is a terrible pick for clearing content solo
