· This is a comparative analysis video for users struggling to choose between Diane and Jericho as Burst characters in The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin.
· We comprehensively compare the performance of each character by weapon, engraved equipment, accessories, masteries, and breakthrough stages to evaluate their efficiency in final difficulty content.

· Regarding engraved equipment related to Burst efficiency, both Diane (increases Burst efficiency for the Pig attribute) and Jericho (increases Burst efficiency for the Cold attribute and grants gauge) have relevant options, making them acceptable.
· In terms of weapons, Jericho's 'Skywind' dual swords are more advantageous because they reduce critical resistance by 40% on back attacks. Diane doesn't have a particularly suitable weapon and would need to equip something like 'First Strike'.
· For accessories, both characters should equip the 'Twisted Thought Earrings' crafting set, which increases all attribute Burst efficiency by 15% when wearing the 3-set bonus.

· The comparison is between Diane (3 Breakthroughs) and Jericho (Base, 1 Breakthrough) at full mastery.
· Diane has minimal breakthrough effects related to Burst, while Jericho gains Burst gauge and a 100% additional effect at 1 Breakthrough.
· The tests will be conducted against the Red Demon, Hell Ancient Dragon, and the Abyssal Gilthunder, comparing three scenarios: Diane (Base), Jericho (Base), and Jericho (1 Breakthrough).

· The test results against the Red Demon and Hell Ancient Dragon show that Diane fills her Burst by using her ultimate and then entering a damage cycle. In contrast, Jericho mixes skill combos and normal attacks to fill her Burst much faster.
· While Jericho's Burst gauge charging speed is significantly faster, in the case of Abyssal Gilthunder, Jericho sometimes dies while charging Burst, highlighting Diane's stability.
· Utilizing the Pig attribute gimmick of Abyssal Gilthunder allows Diane to stun him, making the fight easier.

· In the test against Abyssal Gilthunder, Jericho quickly charges her Burst through rapid skill combos.
· However, in a direct damage situation with Abyssal Gilthunder, Jericho struggles to survive, making Burst charging difficult. Conversely, Diane's health recovers after using her ultimate during direct combat, allowing her to charge Burst stably.
· While Jericho's Burst charging speed improves at 1 Breakthrough, it's still insufficient to withstand Abyssal Gilthunder's attacks.

· At Jericho's 1 Breakthrough, her Burst charging speed noticeably improves, making her viable for Abyssal Gilthunder.
· The key to defeating Abyssal Gilthunder is to fill his stagger gauge when the Pig attribute Burst is active, causing him to be stunned. Dealing burst damage during this stun is the most effective method.
· Jericho's 1 Breakthrough can contribute to defeating Abyssal Gilthunder, but it requires more skill compared to Diane's stability.

· If you prioritize stability, Diane is the optimal choice. There's almost no risk of dying while charging Burst, and her health recovery during direct combat after using her ultimate allows her to also fulfill a tank/healer role, adding flexibility to party composition.
· Jericho's strength lies in her fast Burst charging speed, but her lack of survivability in the Abyssal content and high control difficulty are drawbacks. Her performance improves at 1 Breakthrough, but she's still not as stable as Diane.
· Currently, the Abyssal bosses released favor Diane due to their Pig attribute focus. However, if more Abyssal bosses of various attributes are added in the future, Jericho's value could increase.

· Since the currently released Abyssal bosses (City of the Dead, Corrupted Guardian Orgoth) are of the Pig attribute, Diane, a Pig attribute Buster, has an advantage.
· However, as more Abyssal bosses of various attributes are added, it will become important to develop Buster characters suited for each attribute.
· For example, if an Ice attribute Abyssal boss appears, Jericho's value could skyrocket.

· If you're confident in your control skills and prefer fast Burst charging, Jericho is recommended. If you value stable gameplay and party flexibility, Diane is recommended.
· Jericho may be advantageous over Diane in most content due to her fast Burst charging, but Diane's survivability in Abyssal content is overwhelmingly superior.
· Ultimately, it's important to choose the optimal Buster character by considering your playstyle, party composition, and future content releases.
