Brighton (Japanese: ブライトン Brighton) is a member of the Magi, working in rebellion against the Grannvale occupation of Munster, and a participant in Leif's liberation army along with his fellow Magi.


Biography

Brighton was a knight of Munster. Due to not tolerating Raydrik, he left the knights to join the Magi.[1] In a Magi raid on Munster Castle's dungeon, Brighton was tasked by Ced with leading Machyua and Lara to clear out the lower levels and free the prisoners therein, while Ced and Asbel looked for child prisoners elsewhere. He assisted in ensuring Leif's escape from imprisonment in the dungeon, and along with the rest of the Magi was entrusted by Ced to join Leif's army.

Analysis

This character analysis section may not be accurate to every player's experience.

Brighton is an Axe Knight who joins in Chapter 4 at level 5. However, he cannot use his axes until Chapter 6 and remains sword-locked for most of the Munster arc, where he's dismounted and has penalties to his stats because of this. He has a useful skill in Wrath that allows him to one-shot most enemies with a critical hit outside of the Sword Armors, and in Chapters 6 and 7, he can use his horse to rescue foot units and help them escape quicker. He also receives support from Machyua, who is with him during the Munster arc and improves his combat abilities. Unfortunately, his base stats are underwhelming, especially his speed, and his growth rates are average at best. While Wrath remains a solid skill, his stats mean that his player phase combat will be poor, and his enemy phase combat will only be average. His only niche is as a mounted axe user, but Hicks is arguably better at that than Brighton, and only one of them can wield the Brave Axe.

In summary, Brighton is good for when he joins thanks to a lack of competition, but quickly falls off in usefulness.
