Absolutely not. Consider this DLF deck:

Melee: Eisengrim, Thidrek, Vairo

Magic: Heylel, Nymeue, Elpis

Charm: Niyoban, Stheno, Isara, Belili

Class: Magician/Wizard

Base Stats: 380K

Skills: 4x Luring Ray, 3x Guard Order, 3x Flag of Victory

Class will ensure 2 skills trigger every battle, sometimes more. At max lvl you will get 65k per pop for all those skills, that's 162k bringing average total up to 542K. DLF is unreliable and you can either get from nil up to 130k from it. So let take the median of 65K that's 607k people will face on average.

Now consider war. Magician/Wizard guarantees 3 skills triggering, that's a straight 195k skills bonus. Total defense would reach 575k. that's 640k after formation. Having said that, anyone can run magician/wizard and then change class to knight/crusader, captain bonus increase from 5% to 10% as well as def base will increase. Assuming an additional 17%, bringing it up to 749k.

Now Charm: Class: Acrobat

Base Stats: 385K

Skills: 4x Luring Ray, 2x Guard Order, 1x Flag of Victory, 2x Bewitching perfume, 1x Hateful

Skills are over the place but they're decent. Perfume is not as strong as FOV, GA and LR because it's almost impossible to skill. Hateful is a hit or miss but in general weaker even at lvl 15. Trigger rate also varies greatly can go from 1 skill to 2 skills, and only on rare occasion 3 skills. Assuming on average 1.7 skills do fire, 1 good skill like FOV and another weaker skill like hateful, giving 80k, bringing total up to 465k. Now All charm formation skills have high trigger rate, generally it decreases atk by 110k on average as I have observed. That brings total up to 575k equivalent defence power.

In war, i'm not certain how much acrobat class def gives. Assuming about 20%. Total def in war will be at 690k. However, you are stuck with acrobat. if you change to another class, you lose defence.

In summary:

DLF: 607k normal, 640k war, with class change 749k

Charm: 575k normal, 690k war

But that's only half the story. Acrobat bonus gives zero advantage to attack, magician/wizard benefits attack at the same time and this is especially important in war.

So in summary I am dead serious about Charm not being OP and DLF is superior.
