    Survivability while being useful without needing to heal, or absolute useless turtle survivability?

    Arisha and Delia are very good since they both have the option of invulning or blocking as the situation calls, and have blocks that are extended on hit. Arisha is a bit better since her attacks don't require much commitment even at low speeds.

    Ranged > Melee for survivability. Bow kai in raids is hilariously easy, especially now that longbow is the best dps option for bow kai.

    Kai :l.

    Other characters:
    - Hurk for the longest dodge frames.
    - Sword Vella because why dodge when you can just Xcut.
    - Fiona for turtle counters.
    - Arisha because invuln frames for days. Ruin Blade, Doomspeaker, Warp Hole, Cast Mana, a block and normal dodge. Coupled with the fact that you can just teleport to the other side of the map.

    Other characters are either alright or I have no experience with.

    Actually bow kai has one of the shittiest dodges in the game. If you get zero aggro then yes he is easy. But if you get a ton of aggro, then you are gonna have a very bad time. Gun kai dodge is far more forgiving

    Bow kais dodge is 0.33 secs of invul, Remember the Old Spear lann dodge(0.30 sec of invul). Just as Scar as Said if bow is getting aggro his Survivability is next to nothing, Depends on def but you get my point

    ah thanks for the quick replys,

    my next question is , which would benefit the most from duoing with a Xgun Kai, Arisha or a delia,
    i personally was thinking that arisha maybe better in time where the Kai is kiting the boss around the room, delia seems to need to wind up before she can output some of her bigger damage where as the only wind up arisha needs is mana blade mode (or whatever its called)
    .... but im a nub and am only lv 45 with both.....

    Arisha hands down, but pretty sure all melee characters hate Kai if you are kiting the boss away from them.
