Stats
Attack %

Weapon Skill (base). When granting a buff to an ally with a skill, grant yourself the 'Vanguard Advance' buff, increasing single-target skill damage and Attack. When you kill an enemy with 'Combat Attack', there is a chance to reduce by 1 the cooldown of the skill with the longest remaining cooldown at that moment.

  • From 5th awakening: Vanguard Advance also grants Movement +1.

Guide

No S/A/B tier rating is stated in the text; the following is the KR-server NamuWiki community opinion.

"Genesis War Mobile's greatest cheerleader/rally captain." His biggest strength is that he learns as many as 3 shout-type skills, and by combining his unique passive with class traits he can double-stack shouts in a single turn to build buffs quickly. On top of that, shout skills fully apply to himself too, and he has excellent damage skills like Sky-Fall Blade and Thunderburst Slash, so he has plenty of aptitude as a burst dealer. At launch, even Sara, then a first-tier tanker, would get wiped out by a single Sky-Fall Blade from a Storm Knight Medici who leaped 8 tiles after receiving buffs, so after Medici's release he became rare in the arena.

However, in January 2025 the Black Prince arrived with the insane buff-counter AoE "Atomic Blast," which deals 30% ATK AoE damage per buff and applies a buff-acquisition-block debuff, so buffs could now backfire. So while he was previously treated as a must-pick, since the Black Prince his deployment must be approached quite carefully.

Class notes (KR-server community opinion):

  • Command Knight: strong shout-skill synergy; the tree grants 2 shout-type buff skills; using a shout gives (once per turn) a 2-turn damage-reduction + ATK buff, an extra attack/skill use, and removes 1 debuff from the targeted ally. Great synergy with the mostly-buffer Medici, and strong in PVP due to debuff removal. But since Resist Commander has both damage and buffs and is so good, and the Command Knight training tree ends with only 2 buff skills, it is not ideal to pick in the early training phase; worth using in PVP once you have core skills.
  • Storm Knight: the class that learns the exclusive skill Thunderburst Slash; when attacked by enemies within 2 tiles, damage taken and enemy crit chance drop 25%, and with 3+ buffs held, ATK rises by 50%. Medici easily reaches 3 buffs (1 from passive by default plus many self-buff skills), but it is the only class that does NOT gain an extra attack/skill after a shout. Pick this if you want to run Medici as a dealer.
  • Resist Commander: rides the Resistance-Resist Commander exclusive tree, learning Medici's core exclusive skills Sky-Fall Blade and March Shout. Its passive uniquely gives +50% ATK and up to 35% damage reduction when debuffed or below 100% HP, plus (like Command Knight) an extra attack/skill after a shout. Recommended to prioritize because of Sky-Fall Blade and March Shout, and good enough as a finisher class.
  • Combo: Command Knight and Resist Commander gain an extra attack/skill after a shout; using Dash there creates an extra movement, effectively upgrading it to a full extra action. So you can solo the combo: open with March Shout (TP3), use Dash (TP1) to move extra and approach, then finish one enemy with a distance-scaled Sky-Fall Blade (TP2). Possible thanks to the full-payback unique passive.

Core skills and ultimate (KR-server community opinion):

  • Sky-Fall Blade: single-target attack from Resistance. Consumes 2 TP, grants "Fighting Spirit" (ATK/spell power +20% for 2 turns), strikes for 210% (!) ATK; crit chance is fixed at 1%. On kill, grants Fighting Spirit to other allies within 8 surrounding tiles. Compared to typical single-target multipliers of ~150-170, this is huge and only 2 TP, balanced by the fixed 1% crit (so crits effectively never trigger). Low ceiling, but conversely no need to raise crit chance; a hard counter to Valkyrie, who has a passive preventing crits.
  • March Shout: buff skill from Resist Commander. Removes all action-control debuffs from allies within 3 tiles and applies "Resistance Army's March" for 2 turns (movement +1, immune to action-control), with ATK +4% per tile moved. Very useful because Fighter-line movement is only 3.
  • Thunderburst Slash: AoE from Storm Knight. 170% ATK electric damage to a single target, 70% ATK to adjacent enemies, and applies the no-counter debuff "Electrocution." Excellent multiplier plus debuff and AoE. (Trivia: in the original it was Thunderburst "Sword," slightly changed.)
  • Vigor Shout: from Knight; grants "Vigor" (once, after melee attack gain extra attack/skill) for 2 turns to self and adjacent allies.
  • Battle Shout: from Command Knight; grants "Battle Stance" for 2 turns (ATK +25%, DEF/RES +25%) to allies within 3 tiles.
  • Ultimate Jinmu Heaven-and-Earth Rupture: cross-shaped AoE (8 surrounding tiles plus 6 tiles in front/back/left/right); deals 100% ATK then an extra 50% ATK defense-ignoring damage. No side effects, but high multiplier, wide range, defense-piercing, so quite powerful. Vs Karls's Heaven-Earth Rupture Dance: same range, normal-hit multiplier +30%, defense-ignore multiplier -20%, net +10% total, so stronger vs low-defense enemies but weaker vs tanks.

Recommended gear (KR-server community opinion):

  • Exclusive weapon Victoria Armada (Armada in original): sub-stat is ATK%. Grants self "Vanguard March" buff (single-target skill damage up + ATK up) when buffing allies with a skill, and a weapon skill that on a killing "battle attack" reduces (by chance) the cooldown of the longest-remaining-cooldown skill by 1. At 5-awaken, Vanguard March adds movement +1. Good for dealer or buffer Medici; but contributes nothing to team buffs and is self-only, so if running purely as buffer it is less necessary.
  • Other recommended Legendary weapon: Elizabeth's exclusive Moonlight Rose, which adds an ATK buff to buffed targets. Medici's March/Battle shouts are wide-range, so the ATK buff spreads with them; using Battle Shout, the ATK buff reaches 35% (broken performance). Also when Sky-Fall Blade kills and spreads Fighting Spirit, another ATK buff attaches, so ATK buffs never stop. So this is the finisher for buffer use; its blue blade also matches Medici's blue coloring.
  • Armor: crit is not very important, so use flat-ATK or HP sets, e.g. Nangcheon's motif Ilgidangcheon set or G.S's motif Pungun set (proper build). At Hero grade, Hyeobgaek 2 with Seonim 2 or Salsu 2 recommended.
  • Accessories: any is fine, but Wolf Fang (ATK up + penetration buff) is best for damage; Amulet of Wound Worsening (ATK up, received crit chance reduction, healing-reduction on melee-attacked targets) is also common, as is its Legendary version Thorn of Agony. At Legendary grade it varies by class:
  • Dealer Storm Knight: Balance Blade (ATK buff) is sometimes recommended at Legendary grade, since Sky-Fall Blade's crit won't trigger anyway.
  • Buffer Resist Commander: Ancient Hero's Ring is recommended; but because the class passive reduces received crit chance, its heal-on-crit-hit rarely triggers. Stopwatch is sometimes used for a faster skill cycle.
