## Strategies

### Heroes

When facing AI, the Buta is a meager threat to a coordinated team. Its biggest threat to you will be its Terrify, as the stun lasts quite long and keeps you open to persistent attacks. This is easily countered by dodging right before the ability hits, even if you remain in the area of effect. The AI will waste its potential otherwise with randomly Shifting to people and Mauling them, meaning they're really only a threat if you've fallen behind the group for some reason. Against a human player however, things get a bit tricky. A clever Veil Demon (VD) player will set up traps to stun, disorient, or in general distract the heroes, then Shift to the group's Support. They will usually save their Terrify for when you're in the middle of an animation to make it more difficult to dodge, so always keep an eye out for that. If the Buta is able to land a Terrify and successfully Maul your Support, that could mean an easy objective loss and a more than worthy success for the VD, even if the Buta dies. So remember that if a Feral Buta is on map, sticking together and watching for its Terrify will be your best tools against it. Just whittle it down, stun lock it, and then move on.

### Veil Demon

First and foremost, the Feral Buta is very much an Assassin, and should not be randomly thrown out into the field as another HP bar to distract the Heroes. Doing so will more often than not result in the Buta being slain in about 15 seconds, wasting your resources and time. Now of course there are many different ways to play Veil Demon (VD) that will allow you to maximize the Feral Buta's potential, but for now we'll talk general strategies. First and foremost, you should attempt to take control of the Buta after laying a number of traps to confuse the opposition. This will allow you to follow up with a Terrify to either maximize the amount of time you're wasting for the Heroes, or with a Maul for some easy damage on a preferably squishy target, such as their support. As you can probably tell, Veil Shift is a very nice positioning tool, and helps you pull off your other abilities, so wait for the right time to shift in on a target before you use it. It's also another good way to escape from danger if you feel like you're being hard focused by the Heroes. Simply Terrify, wait for them to dodge, and then Shift to a weak target. At this point, if you were being focused, the Buta will soon die so just Maul your target and get in as much damage as possible before the inevitable happens. However, if you think you can escape, get the Buta back a decent distance, then depossess and start laying more traps. As for the Boss Fight, having a Buta on hand is hilarious. Used properly, you can take their support out of the fight with your Maul while the Boss goes to town. A tank like the Komainu or the Stone Togor will always be a welcome addition in the Boss Fight, but make no mistake; that heal peel the Buta can pull off is without a doubt a godsend, and if you practice it you'll enjoy it.
