@Moka_HoFi@LukeKardoso More damage, more cdmg, and faster turns all remedy his major issues of taking too long between turns and having mediocre returns at E0.
@Moka_HoFi@LukeKardoso I meant giving him buffs that actually matter to his kit as well. Ditching the wind damage for skill damage, making Veni apply to the peerage member instead of herself, and making the speed boost apply to base speed would fix 90% of his issues immediately.
@Moka_HoFi@LukeKardoso I mean even if Cerydra and Cyrene’s buffs were more than just mediocre he’d be in a way better place. Having Cerydra actually buff him instead of trying to be a subdps on a team where she can’t attack would do wonders.
@jiyan404@usseleszzz@OtisBucket@losttfromlight You’re posting about 3 characters all drawn by Takeuchi, who’s famous for his love of giving characters incredibly similar faces. He’s so prolific at it that characters in FGO have buffs against certain other characters drawn by him because they all have the same face.
@Moka_HoFi@LukeKardoso I agree it would be lots better, but in this hypothetical there’s a good support covering for Phainon’s pitfalls like E9 or Hyacine do for monorem, instead of Cerydra doing fuck all beside the meteor and Cyrene being like a 5% damage increase
@Moka_HoFi@LukeKardoso Just based off my experience between 3.4 and 3.7, the gulf between E0S1 and E1S1 is almost as large as E1S1 and E2S1, just from how much faster he moves. Could be completely wrong and it’s just the Mandela effect, though.
@Moka_HoFi@LukeKardoso Exactly, he got released in 3.4 and was practically abandoned by 3.6 and still does all that because his E2 is like crack cocaine on steroids
@LukeKardoso@Moka_HoFi I’m broke, I have both of these teams low cost. I can say with 100% confidence that low cost Phainon is objectively better than low cost DOT, by such a massive margin that you’d think Phainon was the one with the novaflare and good supports.
@LukeKardoso@Moka_HoFi Guy with a nearly full E6S5 team can’t wrap his head around the idea that his team is genuinely kind of doo doo balls at low cost in the 4.3 meta
@LukeKardoso@Moka_HoFi No the fuck it’s not, that’s how Prydwen works. Normal tier lists are based off whatever criteria the guy making it chooses, and this guy clearly chooses with Eidolons since he said Cyrene is better than E9.
