Uses
Lapis is a free monster given after you finish Mt. Siz normal. This was only introduced after June 2015. Newbies are in luck. She is a great starter Faimon normal farmer if you don’t have any suitable water monsters that farm Faimon easily. She is also a viable stunner with Despair runes.
Offers
Rune Builds
For a universal build, I suggest Despair/Revenge(Spd/Crit R%/Atk%). This gives her good attack power and with decent 6 star runes, she is able to do faimon 1 hard without any problems. For hell however, it requires a better setup.
Important substats: Spd, Atk%, Crit R%, Hp%
Tower of Ascension Viability
Lapis is a good stunner in ToA normal and hard. Veromos does a good job but Lapis has AoE on all skills. That means that 25% of the time, monsters will get stunned every turn. The universal build will not work well if you want her to survive ToA hard. The optimal build for that is Despair/Revenge(Spd/Hp%/Hp%). This will make her a stun bot.
Giants and Dragons B10 Viability
Lapis can be used for Dragons B10 but she won’t dish out damage like Sigmarius, so I think her role there is minimal. Don’t use her for Giants B10…not worth it.
For Necropolis though, she is a beast just like Lanett. The universal build will work just fine but you will need hp% substats to make her survive longer. Her multi hitting skills will come in handy to break the shield of the Lich King. You can consider going 3 Revenge sets if you use her only for Necropolis.
Arena and Guild Wars Viability
Conclusion: Keep for ToA
If you need a good ToA member, Lapis will be the monster to go with. With the recent gift of Lanett, she might very well be relegated to just Faimon farmer and ToA.
