Pure Pandalf information on the
Monster Legends Wiki

It took Pandalf a while to realize that he needed to come out of retirement and play a key role in the fight against Corruption, but in the end, he embraced Purity. Pure Pandalf is ready to devote his wisdom, experience, and talent to the cause! Now that's something that should worry Lord Nebotus...

Role: Denier/Support

Overview

Pure Pandalf is an INSANE Magic Denier/Support. To start things off, his trait is phenomenal, rivalling the best traits in the game. Team Evasion ensures your allies are protected while Team Stamina Regeneration allows the monsters without a form of Stamina Regeneration themselves to attack without stopping due to loss of Stamina and relics that remove Stamina. Finally, Precision increases the chances of attacks and tortures to land. He also has Bulwark which makes all status effects have 50% less accuracy against him. His stats are amazing as well, as he has one of the highest speed stats for a Corrupted monster and a very high life stat for a denier/support. He has great relic slots and amazing support effects like Team DP, ITC, Cooldown Immunity, ITT and team NER. PP also is the first and only Corrupted monster to have a Turn Transfer move. He can also be a denier with single random control and AoE control on the same move and CDA. He has single PER and AoE PER in the same move allowing him to bypass Mega Taunt and PEP, which almost guarantees you a team PER. Overall, Pure Pandalf is one hell of a monster.

Pros:

Insane trait
Great stats
Amazing relic slots
Great supportive capabilities in TT, Damage Protection, NER and Immunities
2 of his moves bypasses DA
Access to 2 forms of denial in CDA and Random Control Effects

Generally low cooldowns and stamina costs

Recommended Allies

Spekthra is a brilliant ally for him. Pandalf can make up for Spekthra's weaknesses with NER and immunities. He can also protect her glassy health with evasion and Damage Protection. He can also turn transfer to her at the start of the battle allowing her to easily use 3 strength runes. His stamina regeneration can also help her run UA even better and he can remove pesky effects such as damage protection to allow her to wreak havoc.
Because of TT, overpowered Legendary deniers like Warmaster Thalassa work very well with him. Pandalf even does this better than Lindworm, as his Team Evasion SC will protect the frail Legendary from enemy Anticipation monsters.
Thanks to his SC: Team Evasion, any MT work amazingly with him. He also can NER or apply Dmg Prot to them, givin them more sustain.

Common Set-Ups:

Pure Pandalf / Mega Taunt / Spekthra: This is a devastating combo if the enemy lacks of PER, and if they have it, they need to PER the MT and then the rest of the team. The AI also will recharge even if they have Dispelling Fist or Pierce, making it even more powerful.

Counters

Chi Ao Loong can remove all his amazing positive effects and status casters, and then disable the remainder of his trait.
Nature attackers like Anwrikah can pulverise this panda.
