Question regarding Apollo vs Athena

[VSuperPerk]

Hi, so I know that Athena is the refined form of Apollo.

How a particular lightning sylph such as Athena better than Apollo in regards
of stats and skills,or anything other things.

Thanks

Apollo skills are kinda sad, so you definitely need to save at least one slot for divine prayer if you're ever going to evolve it. And the Athena passive Redeeming Light is the best one, IMO.

And as kevs said, a 1-star purple Athena is basically the same strength as an orange Apollo. Evolved sylphs will be able to take more sepulcrums though.

Can you help me set the skills for Athena? my first time using her, don't know what skills are good.

My opinion, the default 3 skills are all good, and the default passive is not bad either. With Athena, you would add the skills:
Divine Prayer
Redeeming Light (passive)

As for the 5th skill, you can make a case for any of these:
Impaling Light
Light Arrow
Beam Sword

My preference would be for Impaling Light, with Light Arrow second, and Beam Sword a distant third.

For the third passive slot, you can keep it open for an eventual evolve into the 3rd form, or get Master of Light. The second evo will be a long ways off, but the Power of Light passive is far and away the best you can get.
