Nuclear Powered Defenders are Strong and Completely Unnecessary

[@tobyclone16]

"Blemishine is mid" One of the best stallers/laneholders in the game, so good in fact she is used in several max risk cc's and can solo all enemies besides patriot in 7-18, with pretty solid healing to boot but sure bud. Also higher single target dps than horn when using S3 (In optimum or close to optimum conditions not generally. True with: External sleeper, No/low defense or Res, Extreme Defense and low Res) And her module does help with her tankiness a fair bit, not as much as I hoped for (WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS GLADIIA'S MODULE) Are there better operators for any specific sub-role she fulfills, yes (With the exception of burst healing, her s3 can keep a whole squad of squishies alive through Inferno Patriot Phase 2 Aura and similar sources of high persistent aoe damage) Is she one of the single best operators for IS, fuck yes Is she the cutest Paladin with a genuine love and slight obsession of a passion in crafting. Absofuckinglutely you will be hearing from my lawyers for this fucking "6/10" slander Also your S1 vs S2 healing analysis leaves out that S2 is aoe (up to 13 targets instead of 1), over a larger range (allowing her to do multiple lane healing shenanigans) --She also has the neat bonus of the Viktorlab DPS calc being bugged for the damage amp category on her 3rd skill due to it not having phys, arts, pure, and all categories and only applying to her physical damage--

[@zerogalaxy2735]

"(WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS GLADIIA'S MODULE)" Its lore accurate, fellow dokutah. Also ch'en + blem + Muddy = infinite spin. Which is why Imma buy her from the cert store.

[@kyarumomochi5146]

Ah yes another "Someone can do X in 7-18" comment That 3 year old fucking stage has no importance to the damn meta do you understand it? And "one of the best lane holders" yeah there are around like 5 lane holders Are you saying she is even close to thirns mountain or mudrock? Lmao

[@kyarumomochi5146]

And her s3 needs like every star align to actually work And it deals 2 attacks so her actual dps is MUCH LESS on a direct gameplay Yes there are much better operators to her role as you didnt even praise her correctly I had used blemi for years and this is the WORST "blemi is better than people say" post i had seen

[@tobyclone16]

@@kyarumomochi5146 There's so much wrong here. Her S3 needs the stars to align to outdps horn (She's higher without an external sleeper but only at 0 defense and res, and unless the opponent has low res horn scales better, I literally fucking said that.) It's still a very solid damage skill in it's own right for laneholding or if you really want to put it on boss damage it's not terrible though not great Her hit being two attacks has no effect on dps, at all. What are you smoking (If it was 2 physical hits that'd matter, as 1 phys hit at double mod would be better, but it's arts that' is the second hit, which makes it situational while improving her jack of all trades) Mixed Damage limits her potential for boss killing, however it makes her function in more laneholding situations as it massively increases her baseline dps since unlike say Mountain she can consistently murder a wave of heavy defender type enemies without help There is no operator that's better in her combined DPS Healing and Tanking role, at all. There are much better ops in her sub roles (Arts damage, use Surtr or any high end caster, Phys damage, use fucking anybody lmao, Tanking use any defender, healing use a medic (With the exception of her having passive aoe healing on S2, and her unique and extreme burst healing on s3)), Though she is a necessary part of certain permastall setups thanks to her Sleep If you think she needs the stars to align to use her you haven't, at all, she needs the stars to align against to not be useful at all (She may be mediocre in plenty of places but it's incredibly rare to be unusable), but look at so many high end CC clears that require her or Defenderknights and say she's lacking in niche or usage

"blemishine is mid" never closed a video so fast bro on god fr you will be hearing from my lawyers soon

[@user-qw6es4ly3g]

But she kinda IS mid until she reaches E2. Healing? Margaret does better. Tanking? Margaret does better and it's not like she's a top tank either. Damage? Well, Maria does slightly better than Margaret, but it still isn't enough for her to solo vaporize a wave of half-decent enemies, and if you aren't trying to use her as a one man army, then her second skill is kinda trash since it makes real damage dealers unable to hit their targets because they are sleeping

[@gjfwang]

I figure blemishine is a bit like saileach where you don’t need them in general content but when you have limited squad/deployment it’s sometimes more important to have some ops that can do several roles and don’t need to be the best at any of the roles they’re doing,

[@markopusic8258]

Fun fact, I did find a situation where Eunectes S1 was my best option, that being H10-1 because I needed someone tanky enough to infini-stall Manfred without a skill due to the unreal Necrosis damage he deals in that particular level. Also can we talk about the editing? Now that was some clean stuff, congrats.

actually Blemishine S3 had a very good use in one of my runs! for JT8-3, I used Surtr to facetank Talulah, then dropped blemishine behind her so blemi wouldn't get hit by the sword but would still keep surtr alive for significantly longer than she should've

I still think Eunectes has more opportunities than people realize. I have yet to get her despite my 200 pulls on the joint op with her and goldenglow (and I got neither in that banner). I am determined to find good use for Eunectes but in a buddy-buddy system (good pairings to bring out the best in all my ops)

I like Eunectes S2, I use it often, yeah her S3 is better in almost every way, But can her S3 stun the Fireballs from the Ch9 caster? I don't think so. Is it usefull?... I... don't think so...

[@charginginprogresss]

You can stun what

[@kevinseraphin5456]

@@charginginprogresss Yep I discovered that during an IS run in traveler from afar, with her S2 activ Enectes can block a stuned fireball, it visualy become invisible and she doesn't attack it, but it's still here and it's size continu to decrease until it despawn, or if S2 run out, it still explode. My theory is that it's coded as an enemy and not a projectile so it can be block right before exploding.

[@KuroeNezumi]

I hate how right you are about eunectes. It is hard to find chances to use her because there's cheaper DP alternatives to her almost all the time. Also the fact s3 doesn't actually do damage to all blocked enemies is depressing, not to mention how long you have to bet on her surviving against the things you'd use a 1-block stat stick for (which 99% of the time should be something that could shred her in the time you get back enough dp to deploy anything that heals her)

[@Phos9]

You say that but Eunectes was crucial to one of my CC daily clears.

[@Xollistrea]

worth noting that blem p4 and mod3 increase her damage a lot enough that she actually deals damage to things wearing armor and carrying a shield

[@mythydamashii9978]

How dare you say Maria is mid 😭

[@bobjones4469]

Blemi hits extremely hard, especially for a Defender, and does Arts damage. Easily the best DPS 3 block tank in the game due to the Arts damage. At least until Penance, maybe. it's just a shame her S3 doesn't heal herself, if only she had some way to heal herself in S3. Still great for instances where you take a massive amount of constant AoE damage and might need 2 healing sources, but such insurances are rare.

I quite like Blemi, I think she's really good, I just wish her S3 also healed herself. Admittedly, it gives a reason to use S1 or S2, but still, it is a bit of a disappointment.

[@reallyreallywrong2228]

Blemeshine's here because not that shes mid its basically the fact that shes indeed niche for both skills S2 and S3, and for actual general content, S2 most of the time didnt heal too fast and S3 specially on chunky enemies that can take out a defender like her, since she needs medic, makes that if she doesnt kill it in time it will end up with the enemy alive with only the difference between a normal defender that doesnt do dmg, is thaat the enemy will end up with lower hp.

Blem is my main defender since i don't have mudrock, horn and other top tier defenders. While its true she is not the strongest in all of her roles like you said. I like how she can do all that not too op but not weak. Has cc in the form of sleep and she is one of the few who can attack sleeping enemies thanks to her scary named talent mercy ( i guess making your enemies sleep and for eternity is mercy because they won't feel any more pain and hardship) not to mention how high her dmg in sleeping enemies. She also have one front tile range for a guardian defender. A aura heal for non healable ops and last but not the least her talent that make all defenders gain sp while attacking. Combine that with low sp in her skills and all defenders can benefit from it. She may be mid in all other roles both she is excellent in being a jack of all trades. Can be used in almost all stage and game modes.

[@TheDimir]

[@Axterix13]

Heh, missing the biggest drawback of Eunectes: that she normally only blocks 1. This is the main thing that makes her so niche. Why invest in her when Surtr will handle almost all of the situations where the snake is good, and many more? As far as Blemi goes, yeah, she's generally not the best. Saria will typically be the one you pick over her. But as far as letting Mudrock bonk more goes, Blemi is also good enough that there is normally a lane she can hold, so you can let Mudrock do her thing more often, while also not adding an extra op for just that.
