  • Some Standard Characters are always going to end up better than others, but it's abundantly clear that Kuro is playing favorites when it comes to their standard banner. What makes Encore so great? What makes the other standard 5-star DPS feel worse?

      I actually prefer Chalcharo.
      Decisive attacks for parrying and very dangerous attacks. His playstyle matches my own quite nicely. I have Encore, Varina, and Chalcharo. I am only missing one of the standard five stars and I don’t really need him. I also don’t have any limited characters yet. Trying to change that.
      I use Chalcharo as my main dps and have a team that suits him pretty well for what I have.

    • @RandomPinoyGamer
      @RandomPinoyGamer 15 днів тому +6

      @@5daydreams Calcharo got sidenerfed because of the way dropping buffs work when quickswapping.
      The reason Calcharo used to be incredibly strong is because you used to be able to quickswap his long animation times with a yinlin swap to avoid him dropping his combos and still deal max damage with the yinlin buffs while his ultimate is still on.
      When the game got updated to drop buffs after swapping, his main source of damage got nerfed to oblivion because now he can't afford to:
      1: Get hit in the middle of his combo string.
      2: Dodge in the middle of his combo string.
      ..... And therein lies the charo problem. He even got the duration of his ultimate nerfed which makes an ultimate 3-full combo (his total damage would get cut by almost half after just losing 1-full combo because of reactions i forget sorry.) need near pixel perfect timings to do, when before the nerfs you could at least afford to dodge once or twice within the ultimate and still deal a 3-full combo string within the timeframe.
      ..... Sorry. I know it's a wall of text but even if I didn't have charo I felt bad for his nerfs.

    • @5daydreams
      @5daydreams 14 днів тому

    • @RandomPinoyGamer
      @RandomPinoyGamer 14 днів тому +2

      Oh sorry I missed that completely. Then again, I only went in for the charo nerf question haha.
      I'm assuming since calcharo fell off a cliff during the nerfs the sephiroth mains are taking it to heart maybe?
      Also, Encore didn't get nerfed too much with all of this even with the aforementioned nerfs. She got slightly hit with the basic attack damage but all in all it ends up being roughly a 15% dmg loss compared to calcharo's massive dps loss due to how his forte+ult works.
      :c grasping at straws here now for explanations but thats all i got. lol.

    I actually got encore on release, but never built her. I was saving for changli, however after changli's trial I realized she's just not for me. But the problem was I had prefarmed a near perfect fusion echo set. I already had sanhua built and maxed out from jinhsi's banner. So I realized this was a sign, to finally build my encore. And my god does she slap! She was easily able to 3 star and this was with VARIATION Verina's weapon, not even a 5 star. Insane. But I am going for zhezhi and her weapon will be Encore's new best weapon even stronger than Stringmaster! Cant wait

    I've been maining Encore since day 1 and I absolutely love her playstyle, I'm still using Encore, Jinhsi, and Verina as my main team even though I have Changli and I absolutely love it because Jinhsi nukes everything and then encore cleans it up with pow pow pow pow pow lol
    I was pretty much destined to be an Encore main, I wanted her so I made 2 accounts and played them both at the same time one on pc and one on mobile to have a better chance at getting her and I got her on BOTH ACCOUNTS at 50 pulls, then I selected Verina's banner and got her on my 2nd 10 pull, and I got Yinlin's weapon on my very first limited weapon pull at 1/80.
    My luck continued for Jinhsi at 34/80 but her weapon was like 63/80... then for Changli I lost 50/50 to Encore again and had to go to pity twice for Changli. Basically I have an E2 Encore now because I also bought 1 copy from the shop. I used my standard selector ticket on Verina for her E1 too or Encore could be E3 rn but I kinda wish I got the panda girl I never remember her name.

    Well, not exactly. The thing about Fusion characters is that they all punch harder than their supposed role/rarity should be when it comes to raw damage numbers.
    There seems to be a theme for each element:
    Fusion is high raw damage.
    Electro is rapid hits and vibration damage.
    Aero is CC and utility.
    Glacio is damage avoidance or mitigation.
    Spectro is friendly to off elements and generalist.
    Havoc is quirky specialist.
    Right now Jinhsi is top DPS, but that is only because what Kuro envisions as the first phase meta teams don't have all the characters yet. Future Havoc and Fusion burst DPS characters are the ones likely to out damage Jinhsi, but may not have Jinhsi's flexiblity. Even if a Fusion burst DPS character only ties with Jinhsi, Changli will be a huge tie breaker. Havoc is more of a wild card.

      Changli is also likely better in hard content due to her ability to ignore defense values, giving her a significantly higher damage floor than every other character in the game.
      Hell, her S6 is a 55% defense ignore. Depending on how that's calculated, Changli might have the best DPS of any character in the game for a long time when it comes to hard content and enemies at later SOL3 phases who'll naturally have higher defences.

    I think Encore is generally underrated. She's not going to be doing Jinhsi levels of damage, but she's flexible enough that you can use her if you built her right.
    A lot of people jumped on the Calcharo bandwagon due to his design and potential damage output, but his kit proves that even if you have a higher DPS-ceiling if you aren't fun to play, no one will bother. I'm not saying you can't like his character, but it's clear his kit is rather clunky to use to get the most out of it. I'm sure Kuro was aware of this considering a certain free 5-Star Limited character is going to take that spot real soon. LOL
    While Encore is still a standard 5-star DPS and will also be powercrept to hell and back, she actually scales well with Sequences and if you give her a decent build for quick swap teams, she's a monster. Her kit does have some clunkiness to it, but unlike Calcharo, you aren't as heavily punished for messing up arguably.
    She's very cute, fun to use, and if you get her at S6, she'll be a decent DPS for a good while at least. Supports obviously age better and if I had to choose between Verina and Encore's S2, I would've gotten Verina's ASAP in a heartbeat, but I'm lucky that the game gave me both. LOL

    Something that i miss in the game is more universal outro skills. Like, changli buffs fusion dmg and liberation dmg, it feels that just encore can extract her full potential cause she heavily benefits from both buffs. I think that's cause we don't have many chars in the game yet, but i really hope that in the future they get rid of elemental damage buffs and focus more in being more diverse with the outro skills. I don't know why, but elemental damage outro skills are so boring and standard.
    Edit: of course that with being diverse i don't necessarily mean that outro skills needs to buff all chars, specially if isn't a support, but i think its more about buffing only one attribute you know? Like, the chars that are getting the best of changli's outro are specifically fusion, liberation dmg based characters.

      You can tell by her outro skill. She gives a Fusion buff + Resonance liberation buff to the incoming character. That's identical to the buffs Yinlin does for an Electro team.
      Jiyan and Jinshi are both main dps for Aero + Spectro. You can tell because they don't give any buffs to their teammates.

      @@darkheartrif No it's quite clear that Changli is a sub dps. She has short amount of field time, does high damage in that window, then buffs the main dps with her outro ability.
      That's why Encore can outdamage Changli, because Changli is a buffer unit for the Fusion team.
      Her outro is identical to Yinlin's, except it buffs Fusion instead of Electro.
      Coordinated attacks aren't the determining factor behind a character being maindps/subdps. It's whether a character brings team buffs, or if all their abilities just buff their own dps.

    Awesome video, thanks for your hard work. I fully agree, I use Encore with Changli and she is one of my favourite characters in the game. She is so fun to play, very flexible in her team compositions due to her quick-swap nature and she is just damn strong. I currently use the battle pass weapon for her and am eagerly awaiting Yinlin's rerun, just so I can get her weapon for my Encore. xD
