Best moves have high stamina costs and high cooldowns.Good cursing skills in PER and Stamina Drain.Team Regeneration + Stamina Regeneration.In conclusion, he's an average Denier-Support, and a good option for beginners. He's not useless in the slightest, but his deny build just isn't quite cutting it like it used to. Despite his nerfs, however, he can still be played with different sets that definitely work well. Now, he is outclassed by better and modern Deniers. Sunblast is the older brother of Solarflare.Kihaku was the best Denier back in the day, but now the 50% patch and the addition of Recently Frozen and Possessed effects nerfed him a lot.Hookuai also has access to CDA which just further screws Sunblast over. Hookuai is a great counter due to his Control Immunity and his high damaging Water move that costs 0 stamina and has a 0 turn cooldown, which just ruins Sunblast's whole gimmick.His moderate cooldowns allow CDA monsters such as Pierceid and Patient Cyber to counter him.Use deniers that are faster than him like Jasastur and Saulot. With his Hardened trait, he is fairly weak to deny effects.Recommended Relics: Pumpseed's Staff, Cane of the Atlantis Nabuline's Trap, Mantis Claws Trap Counters Cover the World In Darkness (AoE 30 Special dmg + Possession + 20% Stamina Removal, 35s, 3 CD).True Power of Pyrotechnics (AoE 30 Fire dmg + Guard Down + Daze, 40s, 2 CD).Stop, It's Firetime! (AoE CDA + Sunburn, 42s, 3 CD).Block Out The Sun / Dazzling Fireshow (Sun for 40 Special dmg + Possession + 50% Stamina Removal, 27s, 3 CD) / (Fireshow for CDA + Sunburn, 28s, 2 CD).Recommended Movesets Solarflare On A Diet Stamina removal doesn't go well with possession.Many AoE skills, making him weak to Dodge Area.Access to 3 forms of denial in Possession, CDA and Stamina Removal.Overall, Sunblast is a decent denier with some pretty heavy drawbacks.

He also has high cooldowns and stamina costs which is not ideal, and his lack of single target moves make him very weak to dodge area. His drawbacks are a lack of PER and Trait Disable, which is a very important thing for deniers to have. He also has access for decent relic slots, Guard Down so that his denials and his allies' attacks always hit, and a decent trait.

This includes CDA, Possession, Guard Down and Stamina Removal. Sunblast is a good Fire denier with many nice gimmicks.
