New companion Pero, what role is it?
The new companion Pero, introduced for the China service Halloween season of Sword x Staff, was introduced as a character wearing a small red hat. In combat, the way it endures when health falls below a certain level is distinctive. When health falls to 60% or 30%, or when it takes critical damage, health is forcibly held at 60%, 30% and 1 respectively. At that time, its own attack power and life-steal effect rise, and the whole team is granted a damage-boosting effect that cannot be dispelled, lasts throughout combat, and stacks up to 3 times.
However, the specific values of the attack power and life-steal increase are not shown in the original. In this article's judgment, since the health-holding effect and the team damage boost are present together, use in formations that endure for a long time can be considered; but because values and actual performance are not in the original, they must be checked after actual application.
What readers should check
- Acquisition method: Since no acquisition method is written in the original post, acquisition routes such as events or summons should be checked via a separate official notice.
- Regional application: Since this is China service basis, Korea/Global service application is not confirmed.
- Korea schedule: Since the Korea service is in the preregistration stage with a launch planned for 4 November 2026, this companion's Korea application should be checked via a Korea official notice.
