What do you guys think her role is? 😎👍 To be a tank, she needs to use her ultimate first (it takes time). The riposte, S1 damage & shield is pretty good (tho you need to build her passive stack first to fully benefit them. It's pretty quick in heavy-hitting contents, otherwise slow). IMO with such requirements, she lacks the utility to return for the team. Be it for the/compared to the current meta & contents (read: outdated). Now, imagine if her counter/riposte actually also gives debuff(s) to the enemy. Or if her shield provides a little DMG reduction (like Tennant), or DMG buff, or crit buff while it's still active. Anything really, that'd be worth the set up. Addition notes🔻 ▶It doesn't need to be her shield, any shield will do to activate her 2-star or above S1's extra effect. ▶Raw damage refers to pure damage without any buff(s). ▶The extra Genesis DMG from the new 6-star Sonetto psychube doesn't specify whether it's based on ATK or what. Regardless, you still want to have some ATK on top of the reality def. & crit on her reso build cuz of her initial skills multiplier. ▶I'm feeling like she'd do well at P3 + the new psychube as a sub-DPS (potentially can be used as a somewhat DPS as well with enough buff(s))
Dude you're crazy. I don't use her myself, but you make it easy for me to understand about her skills and the new psychube. The touch about her taunt is nice too, clever work!
2.3 Content slight spoilers! I think they should push her more in the supportive / solo sustain via shielding direction to differentiate her from J (counter focused DPS) and Kakania (literal tank). Based on her Rhapsody upgrades teased, it seems like she has the potential to be a competitive sustain since she seems to be gaining the ability to passively apply shields! There's also a bit about shield converting into damage? But I'm not so sure what that means.
Really love Ms.NewBabel I have her I3 lvl 60 R15 and P3. But yeah I barely use her outside of limbo because of her kit that doesn't offer much in any other content. Back in the day she was powerful in UTTU, now she wasn't that powerful anymore because they change the UTTU mechanic by a lot. Currently, I Will only use her on Limbo since seeing her Riposte is very satisfying.
I don't know if you've heard but she will get buffed in the CN version This is the rough translation "Ms. New Babel All allies riposte amplification. Shields convert damage and automatically replenish shields" maybe she will boost characters like Joe. i have her P1 and I use her s lot in Limbo for fun, sadly not with the new psychybe as I'm saving polarizations
Though Babel is a tank she needs a dmg buff, because even Kakania the new tank unit have a good genesis damage. Babel genesis damage should be allowed to crit, because it's a way to make her a bit usable. Also her taunt should have some mechanic that make the enemy can't ignore to attack her, that way even boss can't resist her taunt makin Babel a bit of a unique unit. But yeah outside of that I don't really think this would help her much in total... Hopefully the buff in 2.3 could help raise her popularity.
I got her P1 through unfortunate rateoff 😢 And I can tell you she is pretty much useless in most scenario except roguelike. That is the only stage where she is actually useful. For me personally her role is as a support for 37 for generating eureka since most enemies except some boss will always get taunted. And her shield is pretty good, similar amount to Tennant but with more duration. That's pretty much everything about her 😅
I lost to her twice when I started the game so I get it I might build her if her buff turns out to be good Edit:I also would've built her if I had 37 but sadly still don't

the hydra "bug" is fixed in 2.2, after babel gets the new raids buffs she is considered the main target with her counter.
I see, so they consider it as a "bug". That's nice to hear, and that's how Taunt exactly should be 😎👍

As a Ms. NewBabel fans, that's great news to hear!! 😎👍 really excited to see her buff

Kakania powercreep her.
She is tank support obviously, but powercreep exist.
I don't know if you've heard but she will get buffed in the CN version

I am working on maxing Approaching Rain psychube cuz I really like Ms NewBabel
Also, I think of her as a mineral dps, hehe....

I also love her design and voice lines, but if I ever lost my 50/50 for her I'll be very disappointed loll
Losing 50/50 always hurtsss 😂😂😎👍
