mageAlthough Init has potential to compete as a DPS, he needs awakenings. His basic attack applies damage reduction, which is invaluable versus Semrah and the cores Init assigns attack with him to provide a consistent source of true damage. They also provide damage increases and heal. Paired with his base stats, and good damage output from his ultimate, Init can work well but he isn't great.

Before GR-19
Attack, speed and some Crit Chance should be enough to progress past this stage.
Calamity
Night TerrorMain Stats: atk / atk / atk
Priority: spd > crit_rate > atk_flat > crit_dmg
GR-19 - GR-21
The goal here is to obtain over 90% Crit Chance whilst maintaining high speed and attack.
WarlordSoulbound ArcanaMain Stats: atk / atk / atk
Priority: atk_percent > crit_rate > spd > crit_dmg
After GR-21
Cataclysm should be used if comparable to your Soulbound Arcanca. HP% is desired as survival can become difficult.
Wicked Vengance
CataclysmMain Stats: atk / atk / atk
Priority: crit_rate > spd > crit_dmg > hp_percent
