Each time Raiden tags-in, lightning strikes the active opponent, removing 40% of their current health and 66% of their power. Raiden also counts as Outworld and Martial Artist.

Role

Klassic Raiden is a tag-in attacker who weakens the active enemy before the normal exchange begins. His entry is most valuable against a target still holding substantial health and power.

Strengths

Removing a share of current health helps prepare a durable ordinary enemy for a finisher. His additional Outworld and Martial Artist identities broaden compatible class support.

Weaknesses

The health removed is based on current health, so a nearly defeated target loses less. The tag-in removal does not work on bosses.

Best teams

Use a rotation partner who can capitalize on the reduced health and power after Raiden enters. Class support that recognizes Outworld or Martial Artists offers additional team-building options.

Where to use

Choose him for non-boss battles where repeated entries can soften dangerous active opponents. Do not transfer that strategy to a boss fight expecting the same percentage removal.
