    One thing I might have not emphasised enough in the video is that notice her entire kit doesn’t have defence increasing properties. It’s all about the barrier, the additional HP. It’s because of this that I also promote Skill 2 over Skill 3, since the significant reduction in damage (more than Shamare’s doll btw, cos it’s 60% compared to 50%) really helps her to be a hard tanker.

      In arts damage thats right, with no other effects on enermy or operator, Shamare S2 50% attack down is equal to the 50% sanctuary. But for physical damage, due to the AK damage formula, 50% enermy attack down most of time can let operators take less damage than the 60% sanctuary. This can go high enough to 2720 attack Patriot where he can deal 860.8 damage to the 568 defence Penance in video when S2 is on, but only 792 damage if using Shamare's doll with no Penance skill activated.

    Actually Mudrock's S3 turns her more into a centurion in that she then hits multiple enemies according to her block count. Her stun isn't the only aoe aspect of it. Although I do tend to see people use her S3 more for dueling, probably because of the stun but also it reduces her attack interval and ups her attack for the duration.

    I'd say Aak is worth mentioning as a combo with her S3. Giving her an instant 15sp on demand combined with supercharging her with his S3 is really strong (and fun). You can even use his S2 instead to give her an insane amount of barrier, since raising her max hp will raise its normal cap, which can help with the lack of any defence that she gets from that skill.

      Ive been using her with Aak's S2/S3 + stainless S2 for quickly stacking barrier without the need of killing mobs and she worked pretty well on bosses too, even if there weren't many mobs to kill. Sometimes also with Heidi's buff on the top if there was too much burst of a damage. She was pretty much invincible in most situations

    From my understanding, Penance's skill 2 is sorta similar to Hoshiguma's S3, where it's pretty much designed to chew up hordes of weaker mobs and spit them out as paste, except its art damage and is in a ring around her instead of just her frontal tile. Her S3 is for enemies that have a very high attack and is able to attack her because the reflect damage is what you really want from the skill, but it requires her to have taken a lot of hits beforehand to charge up her skill and so is more ideal in a stage with a lot of ranged attackers and she's got their attention because she can just repeatedly gain SP for her skill.
    I honestly don't see myself using her S3 that much, since I find it a lot safer using Nearl Alter or Surtr to kill particularly aggressive enemies, but this guide definitely helped me really figure out how to properly utilise her, thank you. Penance has got a very niche approach to using her, but she's great if used properly, like you showed us.

    Nice, I like how this is formatted. I’m a visual person, so while it’s helpful to read skill descriptions and for you to tell me what’s what and why it’s good to know, the immensely helpful part is showing me how it is used alongside seeing the situations myself to determine which skill might be better before you say which one is being used.
    I’m f2p and still need a lot of materials to promote her and get these skills, let alone masteries, but now I feel super informed about ways I can deploy Penance for future stages.

    S2 is so much easier to use. It feels like S3 is more suited for 1v1 scenarios, but there's too many other operators that can do that better to the point that Penance S3 just feels way too niche. I guess you can use it to deal with large groups of ranged enemies, but again, it feels like there's better options for that. Maybe you could leave out the "Trial of" and just use "Thorns"
    Edit: I kinda meant Hoshi S2, but I guess even Thorns S2 might work, depending on the situation

    The Mudrock vs Penance comparisons are inevitable given they are both the same archetype but the time I've spent using Penance I've never felt like I have been using Mudrock's replacement.
    Actually, when I use her S2 I feel like I'm using one of Ling's dragons. When I use her S3 I feel like I'm using Eunectes S3.
    If you feed Penance some Vanguards and some Guards in SSS she absolutely obliterates anything with her S3. Nothing goes past her and she never loses her shield because Vanguards' SP each X second buff allows you to constantly spam her S3 and inflate her shield. She is so powerful I plan to drop Mlynar from my SSS squad and replace him with another flagbearer just to feed more Vanguards to Penance who can tank anything.
    I buffed Penance a couple of hours ago and when I checked her Attack% on S3 skill was 13,000+. Absolutely INSANE

      yeah, mudrock and penance are just different in how they hold land and deal with damage.
      i do hope when they get their modules they lean into mudrock blocking slow high damaging hits while penance deals with basically non-boss enemies. my hope is that mudrock's module makes her shield doesn't proc on low damage while above a certain hp threshold so she could save the shields for elite enemies.

    prerequisite for s3 is to have a decent amount of weaker mobs at the start before a hard hitting one comes in. It would be punishing especially if a ranged hard hitter comes in early
    s2 is also good for tanking lone hard hitters in isolated lanes along with fast redeploys or passive types damage dealers like utage then add perfumer for her passive heal

    As a very ignorant newbie who pulled penance and blindly tried to use her as i used my friends mudrock, failed, and then dismissed penance as bad, i can't thank you enough. There's a wealth of possibility with penance. I also dismissed lunacob too, i had no idea about that perma camo talent. I'm lazy and rarely bother to hit the like and subscribe on videos but i'll gladly do that much for yours. Arknights is a hard game and I feel pretty fortunate to have found such an excellent resource for learning and improvement.

    For those who want to play is3 ending2 in high difficulty, it would be better if you have Penance s1m3. The best choices here are Gnosis, Mr nothing, Erato. But sometimes you just dont get the recruiment you want. Penance need +0.5 sp recover. So if you have Ptilopsis and +0.2 sp recover then you can pick Penance. If you play in diffculty 7 or less then just ignore s1 cause it's not hard to kill the knight with Pozy or GG.(with hand of Pozy you can even kill him in difficulty 15, but still very very hard)

    I know comparing units can be uncomfortable/unfair but I think if you could make a video showcasing where Mudrock shines and where Penance shines it'd be very useful for older players like me who have already owned Mudrock for a long time to understand the differences in their usage. I still don't know when I should pick Penance S2/S3 over Mudrock S2/S3 other than Penance S2 seems to do way better against lots of enemies compared to either of Mudrock's skills (Or so I think based on the showcase?).

    • @huynamvu3035

      Mudrock shine against hard hittimg but slow attack interval enemies whereas penance is the opposite. Mudrock will get quickly overwhelm against medium dmg fast hitting enemies, espcially art dmg(originium altar buffed sarlaz soldier) whereas penance will be almost useless if the map she in spam elite enemies very early or there is little to no weak or medium mob for her to feed her barrier(can somewhat mitigate this with sp battery). If u are already veteran, i dont think this is hard to understand.

    • @Enttoma
      @Enttoma Рік тому +1

      I think penance is good against enemies with low HP, low damage but higher attack interval so she can stack her s3 faster, for mudrock she is good against high DMG but slower attack interval thanks to her barrier. For mudrock's s3 it's good for elite enemies enemies and for penance's s2 idk have much knowledge about those skills so I can't really comment on that.

    Funny enough, My friends complain how hard she used and compare her with Mudrock, Yes she need some conditions to shine her skills but I think she is fun to play , Maybe it’s because Mudrock skills is easy to use and also most frequently use Defenders are like that, place them and AFK let them tank and focus another operators, only use skills when needed, but Penance is not like that, She need some attention to raise her hands, I think this mindset goes along with most of manual skills trigger like Eunectes Asbestos Czerny Heavyrain etc., as well
    I try used both Mudrock and Penance together and I enjoy more than I thought, I’m looking forward to use them together a lot more in the future
