What characters have you quit and why?
I'm wondering what characters you have spent a lot of time on, but ultimately abandoned?
Comments
Reason : Arisha
But later after kai was released I started using mouse mode and gradually starting using fifi again.
Keyboard mode was hard to quit lol
Playing both atm and I have to greatly disagree lol
Quitted Lann and Sylas. For lann because of the stats gap is too high, gameplay isn't much rewarding and RNG based. For sylas I just got sick of him. Very lack of variety and basically just keep spamming same attack over and over again. He lacks interactive gameplay.
Ok. : )
Because Lynn is way more challenging.
I remade an Evie because I couldn't unlearn skills (even asked support to help but they cant).
Other than that, I keep all my alts now because they come in useful and of course regret nuking my hurk.
Vella and Fifi because I just have too many chars that I like to play and can't gear them all.
Karok, Evie, Ari, and Delia are on temporary hiatus.
I dont even enjoy playing most of my alts because most of them need revamps.
In particular, the ones I dislike the most are probably :
Sword Fiona : slow and really weak combos (1st to 4th smashes), her only decent DPS options are counter attack + amaranth kick and focal point. Her niche (high KD) got more and more pointless as derpcat started adding more bosses immune to knockdowns or just making all bosses insanely hard to knockdown. I remember when we used to love bringing Fionas along to Ainle in beta because of her knock downs, and in s2 maps she was still decent, but she's just meh in s3 due to the insane knockdown resistance bosses have by that point.
Lynn : Don't like her timing for the golden dots, far too reliant on golden dots for damage and very poor DPS against trash mobs since you can't put dots on most of them. Used to have decent burst DPS due to her special SP skill at her release, but is meh now that other characters have gotten revamps and more burst DPS skills.
Sword Lann : No range, no mobility, terrible DPS even if stat capped, terrible animation frames that are very slow and awkard. Struggles to kill trash mobs without glides, glides have horrible recovery times to boot. Not even considered fast anymore when characters like sword vella and cestus karok are much faster and far less reliant on gear.
Hurk : Dodge -> smash spam gets really really old. Most of his SP skills are reliant on building up stacks to do damage, and he's one of the few characters lacking a decent burst damage skill (execution is meh). Very reliant on deflect to pull off high DPS, and s3 has far fewer deflect openings (not to mention, you cant deflect certain enemies).
Bow kai : Crossgun kai is just better in almost every way. Especially for killing trash mobs. Ricochet vs hollow shot is just no contest really, especially considering that the former needs SP.
Then quit all the other characters because I don't want to gear anyone in this game.
Lann > Its cool but i still prefer my hurk
Why settle for anything less than perfection?
His son took over in carying the war against the tyrany of Fomors.
Yeah i like to roleplay that my Lann that i quit is the father of now my main char Sylas.
cb/ts vella because boring
sylas because can't stack up phantom force
lynn because ferghus
