I'm tired of the Shadow Paladins being terrible.
My experiment here is not part of an actual ride chain; Blaster Dark is a nostalgia throwback to BT04 because his backstory was centered on a quest for "power." I tried to go all-out with a limit break that had the same dramatic cost--this is one of the highest costs that I can think of since it's an especial CB2 retire 3 rather than Chromejailer and Spectral Duke's general counterblasts, and the cost is higher than PBD's because it is a limit break--ultimately you're still taking a -1 despite the skill being really good.
The experimental part of it is the 11k defense vs 13k attack. Basically you get the best of both worlds without actually being allowed to have both skills at once; either you get an 11k defense or with a hypothetical 10k booster, 23k offense. So your choice is being PBD or being CoCo, ideally to adjust based on whether the opponent is a break ride or a crossride.
