[@darkhero2]

What character do you think is the hardest to play in Granblue Fantasy Relink? And what character guide build should I make next? 🤔

[@Shin_Lona]

Id is my main... his moveset definitely has some depth, but it felt the most natural to me. I haven't played every character extensively yet. So far, the most challenging has been getting the timing down on Siegfried. I spent some time in practice mode and got the hang of it... the chaos of the battlefield is an entirely different matter. A lot of content creators have merch - not sure if that's something that you've ever considered. Some "Now We Begin The Aggression" shirts would be sick... just sayin'.

[@danielw5447]

Proper build for ghandagoza (not just damage build)

[@notaro123]

​@@danielw5447which one?

[@denisferrari1800]

Animation cancel Sigfried playstyle (which is the most effective) I feel is at least in the difficult category. Maybe even very difficult.

[@Myrdhimn]

It is strange that you are talking about kit + special tech on some character but ignoring tech on others. I play a lot of Zeta and while I agree she is easy, not talking about the double penetrating hit to reduce the combo from "3 bounce + finisher" into "2 bounce + finisher" seem like an oversight. While it is not incredibly difficult to do, you still need to make sure that your buff is up while in the air and adapt accordingly which is probably the hardest part of her kit.

[@itsam4r]

Zeta main here. I'd argue that she has a low skill floor, but a higher skill ceiling than what I feel is indicated in the video. She's by no means the hardest character to play, but I don't know if I'd place her as an easy character judging by how poorly most other Zetas I encounter online tend to perform. To compete in damage, she needs to be played aggressively and stick on enemies. To name a few examples, this means having boss knowledge of parts to target to loop effectively, being able to keep loops going when bosses move/turn so the timing changes, and having boss knowledge on how to get onto and loop on bosses during "downtime" phases (e.g. I loop on Pyet's tail during the entire laser portion, so as soon as I see the transition I target the leg, spear of arvess, switch to tail, loop until he's finishing and get out). The list goes on, but I think I've made my point. Compare this to say, Eugen, where I feel he may have a similar skill floor, but has a lower skill ceiling. It didn't take me long to consistently begin getting 15+ mil MVPs on him in comparison to how long it took me to get equally as proficient with Zeta.

[@WolffQuam]

As someone who love both Zeta and Percival, it's for me a complete mystery that he put them in the same tier... If Percival is indeed really easy to play/master, it's just not Zeta's case. I also play Siegfried, and actually, I find Siegried's timings a lot easier to do than Zeta's (And I play on keyboard lol). I almost never fail to do perfect timings on Siegfried, where I find it really hard to do it consistently on Zeta. Not having much to optimize on 1 character doesn't mean it's not hard to master. Sometimes, needing to optimize 1 thing is enought to make it complicated to master.

[@OAlexisSamaO]

there is also the use of her parry and the 2 pogo into finisher trick. those 2 are kinda hard to pull

[@lialeth5823]

Another Zeta Main here. I agree, Zeta has a low skill floor, but her skill ceiling is sky high, especially with infinite loops being viable now and her counter applying her debuff. As zeta you want to keep attacking 24/7, you want to spend as little time on the floor as possible. Her input timings vary depending on the enemy geometry and with end game fights like lucy and behemoth, you'll also have to content with their movement and fuck tons of projectiles, which further throws a wrench into your timings, characters like sieg dont have to content with that. In addition, while air time is good, it also puts you in a rather vulnerable position, since you can only dodge once and not block. Finally while crimson flight is good for zeta beginners, a better option would be to slot in stout heart sigil so you dont get interrupted, since end game fights just have way to much shit flying around for you to dodge everything while in the air. Her kit is simple, but she demands you learn the boss to optimally use her.

[@PoPo-qp8zq]

Charlotta became my main the moment I realized she has a insanely long range gap-closer with zero cooldown. I can't remember what's the last time I use the left control stick to run anymore.

[@elifrizzell1315]

FRRR, i love charlotta!! Just hit 25mil dmg in 60 seconds earlier today with her and was so happy. Her noble stance air plunges are so satisfying

[@billylee7398]

i like when she goes haaaaaaaaaaaaa, so angry

[@hangmingzhang5067]

also the ARIMASU hits hard everytime XD

[@SomeNoobHydra]

@@elifrizzell1315 please tell me your build!!

[@broccolidiego2053]

As an Io main, you should never take concentration ever. The charge speed it give is not faster than just doing quick cast which you should always do since quick cast also increase your stargaze damage cap if you have her signature sigil. Plus there are other way to get stout heart, you can either use the stout heart sigil or steady focus that give stout heart and def up during charge attack.

[@Clavitz1]

also add on top of that, the duration of it is much too short

[@ThundagaT2]

Yeah i was like what? Concentration got benched soon after i started using it lmao.

[@Brutalchoas1]

I’m a ID main and you actually want to stay in dragon form as long as possible and cancel his final attack, then when your gauge is almost empty you go into god might, using your skills first then to finish it up with his finisher to then go back into god might again. In link time you actually don’t lose your god might form so you just want to button mash as much as you can.

[@notaro123]

Best damage is doing godmight ultimate combo twice. Ex-ID main. Prove me wrong

[@suzuya0]

​@@notaro123I mean that's literally what he just said lol

[@kirenoloc]

I'm guessing he means you want to get to that finisher combo as quick as possible so staying in dragon form is kind of pointless. @@suzuya0

[@notaro123]

@@kirenoloc yes

[@notaro123]

Also, at 60s test, rushing dragon form with skill or holding for double godmight combo is almost same damage.... with double godmight being a bit better

[@dennisl9176]

this is quite a good video for new players trying to decide who they want to unlock if theyre not sure. even for me who is currently working through manic difficulty, this was a good way to quickly learn what kind of learning curve and skill cap these characters can have. the first character i unlocked was zeta and honestly i kind of regretted it at the time because her jump loop was less intuitive than i thought

[@tuanminhnguyentran6735]

the overall content is great, but I think if possible, some timestamps and a table (where you show which character belongs to which tier) would greatly enhance the watching experience, since it’s difficult to find through all the chars and keep up with what you said

[@Tigerlady248]

I would argue Zeta belongs more in Medium simply because she tends to target parts of the monster that are out of sight from the camera (especially on bigger bosses like PB), which makes doing that perfect combo more challenging due to simple not being able to see.

[@winterdragon2004]

Agreed. That plus the loop timing being dependent on the enemies hitbox, which can shift around a lot during attacks, makes doing loops a bit more difficult then it first appears.

[@Linkfan0001]

Not to mention if you do want to master her she has a few hidden mechanics that the game never tells you about like doing twice the damage with Infinite Wonders if you dodge cancel at the perfect time or accessing Arvess Hammer after 2 jump loops if you time the second jump a bit later than usual.

[@MadeInIceborne]

​@@Linkfan0001u meant exploits? won't call those "hidden mechanics"

[@Clavitz1]

she is one of the few character where I dont watch for the art for timing but instead the button map for it

[@kuchai9909]

Charlotta is such a weird character in which her skill floor is so hilariously low but her skill ceiling is astronomically high I wonder if it was just a freak accident. Like I swear the devs intended us to just "occasionally" go to Noble Stance and fire off combos instead of being a crackhead and becoming a beyblade of death on your enemies while (accidentally) parrying everything.

[@garde544]

As an Io main, when i first picked her up i thought it was going to take a lot of time to get used to her advanced combos and rotations, but thats just muscle memory tbh. The hard part is knowing when to precast, to paralyze, when to start charging and learn the patterns and variability of every fight, but once i learned that i now get MVP with 15-18M score on over 90% of quests

[@KevinGonzalez-hs7so]

Same either way my Cag. I thought it would take a long time to get good at her but she is really simple just like Percy. I guess the hardest thing is knowing when to switch up your combo. Katalina however I agree is so difficult, im still tweaking and trial and error to see how to keep my Ares out the longest

[@Robosexual2020]

Sounds like she plays like Final Fantasy 14 black mage lol

[@suzuya0]

​@@Robosexual2020not really she's alorly lenient and faster plus her leyline skill is basically useless

[@dorkeboye]

As a blm main in every game she didn’t seem very hard to me…knowing when to use her stargaze is the most important thing because when the boss is moving around like crazy it’ll just be a dip in dps if you use it and they move 😂😂😂

[@gelofrancisco9725]

I love Yodarha so much. Reminds me of Tifa from Final Fantasy. He is quite easy to memorize, ur main problem is his range coz he cannot deal damage to flying characters and he can be easily knocked back, thats why he has counter mechanic. Its fast to love him but difficult to master his invulnerability power which is his forte

[@fardeco998]

Zeta in easy is not realistic, but other than that its a pretty good list

[@DazedClock]

I can do perfect Siegfried combos everytime, Narmaya stance switch too, but Zeta's timings, even with the sigil, are completely crazy for me. I cannot grasp them, at all. Even 3 loops is hard for me T_T.

[@Lunar_Yojimbo]

Thank you for information and have good days 🍻👍 🤔 Probably vas kinda from med to hard at end game

[@sageoflegends4329]

Tbh, I find Siegried's combos far easier than Zeta's. Dunno if that's weird or common.

[@deputyfier9249]

If you wanna make Katalina even harder to play you can extend Ares without using skills which allows you to take two utility skills along with Enchanted Lands and Frozen Blade. Any time they're both on cd you drop the pactstrike anywhere from 1-5 hits in, perform x,y, and you'll get another full pactstrike chain afterwards. This can be looped indefinitely without the use of any skills which means you can chase mobile bosses without losing Ares if Enchanted Lands isn’t up. This also works after using SBA. you can also use the finisher of pactstrike to hyper armour through overdrive activiation which would normally force you to drop Ares. This is easiest when paired with the above point since you can save skills to make timing the finisher easier when the bar is close to full. You can of course just use Light Wall to invincible it but you wont always have that up/may need it to prevent statuses on some fights. being able to pull this stuff off consistently just to be on an even playing field with the rest of the cast makes her the hardest character in the game, in my opinion, with next to no comparison.

[@DemonSesshyy]

I can 100% confirm this

[@CnryBong]

100% Aggreed with this statement as a Katalina main... but once you master her, katalina is the most fun and versatile character with good dps in the game...

[@KKKuma]

You cannot drop APS5 and extend Ares with combo 1. It is not possible because Ares animation is too short. APS1-4 and APS6 are possible. Even with extension she is not dealing anywhere close to the top damage. So for her difficulty her performance is rather not up to expectation. She should be dealing Io damage at least or on part with Narumaya considering how easy it is to drop Ares and you are forced to drop him at some point.

[@CnryBong]

Complex character with good utilities and dps like narmaya and Io is more than enough, orherwise it will be unbalanced.. as for someone who wants simple and high dps and good utility can go with lancelot.. but for me, the team invisibility is precious..

[@Clavitz1]

this is where I'm hoping in the next patch they do something with her Ares gauge to make it more fluid and stable. I really hate that it drops off so easily. Kinda wish it was like a Devil Trigger meter or something.

[@serenity3157]

Hope they have showcase Siete and Song on 10th Anniversary this march. Can't wait for faasan next month.

[@RaynexD]

I went from Yoda main to Rackam main and loving range playstyle. I dont enjoy melee that much as before lol cant wait for Tweyen tho in april shes gonna be my second main xD

[@t-m0917]

Zeta can get two hits while diving, leading to a faster combo ender. Combo ender is the highest source of damage because of damage cap, making it a requirement to try and get into the diving state as often as possible. Infinite wonders can be cancelled for slightly exra damage as well. Zeta should at least be in medium difficulty since optimizations can be a bit tricky.

[@jojo-gx9sl]

23:52 - I mained Ghandagoza and I can do 2 million in single-hit, which is his special attack (triangle/Y button), since his dmg comes mostly from there, I dont see also a problem with Rage, you can pick True Avidya then use his perfect combo 1 time only with that, and it gets you max Rage, or use perfect combo once and link attack, also gives max Rage - sometimes I do swap between True Avidya with Eternal Rage the one gives max Rage instantly, but will never pick 2 buffs abilities, 1 mobility and 1 counter, since that will cause me do no damage, Skybreaker for example has lower CD and with sigils that have CDR or Cascade skills as secondary will make it usable more often (I have 2 Cascade and still enough to do damage from Skybreaker). I know his play style focus on his special attack but what I noticed if "forced it" then it will feel like holding yourself back and if you play the character's momentum, you wouldn't feel otherwise. Also his special attack can give you invincibility if you timed it correctly.

[@Clavitz1]

since you're a main of his, i have a question. if ghand was changed to have timed charged attacks, would that work for him? I always thought he'd be like that, not like how sieg is. also think of the possibilities getting to use steady focus :D

[@ogopogo1109]

great video, I can clearly see a lot of effort was put into making it. However, I must disagree about Captain and Cagliostro since I personally play those two characters a lot. Captain is probably one of the most complex character in the game with the most restrictive playstyle due to a hidden mechanic that allows you to cycle your ability faster if you use a skill at the very tail-end of when your art level drop from VI to I to get an extra art level reset, not only does it means you have to keep tracks of which combo to use and when to to use your ability and how long your art level icon is going to continue to flash, it also severely limit when you want use your damage skills and what orders you use them in to take advantage of the Roter bug. Outside of Io, I'd consider Captain to be up there on the hardest to play character in the game. As for Cagliostro, once you get used to XXYY dodge cancel you're pretty much set since she can use her skills whenever she wants without having to pay attention to any extra mechanics. Even the slightly more optimal method of weaving in collapse between skill usage is really no different from captain's being able to weave in power strike between her skills. I'd say Cagliostro is definitely leaning more toward a medium difficulty character rather than hard. Anyway, keep up the hard work and I'm looking forward to more Relink contents!

[@Ace1stClass77]

Id main here, for Godmight in link time it auto-refreshes so u dont need to use ragnarok form in link time once u do the godmight finisher

[@darkhero2]

Yeah I'm aware, but with Ragnarok form you can do 3 combo finishers with Link time. Never was able to get 4 off though, IDK if that's possible

[@nishpatel5387]

I definitely agree with Rosetta. When everything procs it feels godly and most of the combat is making sure buffs are up between setting up for DPS nuke.

[@Am4t3r4su]

Rosettas biggest issue is just... 90% of the bosses do not stay in one place and arenas are absolutely huge most of the time.. Her atk buffs become useless since damage cap is a thing, her def buff and healing just feel pointless cause most things are a one shot are just far easier to heal up with potions since potion hoarder is so OP... Her playstyle isn't very supported by this games design really. I honestly wish they had made one of her sigils maybe have a flower sprout at the monsters location or something or attack a rose to the monsters to keep some kinda damage goin on them or just anything to improve her. I ran her for a long time but.. now she is just moot when compared to more CC abilities rather then utility and such..

[@lunamoto3087]

​​@@Am4t3r4su her attack buff is actually great because while most of your hard hitting stuff is capped alot of characters are not capped on their autos, sba, and even some skills so the attack buff only helps you reach that potential more, also when a boss moves you just walk up and plant ur flower it takes like literally 1 second and you can dodge cancel it, All in all rosetta plays just fine, her only problem is that her damage cap on her flowers are really low, 32k is just not enough for the amount of work it takes playing her

[@Sombrelame]

@@Am4t3r4su "increasing def is useless because you get os most of the time" riiiiight i agree for her regen though

[@Am4t3r4su]

@lame Her defense buff is literally 25% WITH her special sigil. The average health pool of a character sits around 38K to 40 ish. Bosses be hittin for 60 K plus damage late game. That 25% won't save you at all. Just sayin. And the utility wasted on trying to attempt to stop a one shot? Could be compensated by running someone else and just running potion hoarder :| I am not hating on her. I just feel her kit was poorly designed for this games boss design as many late game bosses fly around the arena like crazy from one side to the next making roses feel incredibly tedious to keep replanting and utilize properly. Despite this... im thinkin about levelin her anyway cause I dun care about no damn tiers XD beauty is life

[@Am4t3r4su]

@@lunamoto3087 Late game you are damage capped very easily on most standard abilities. The most use will you get out of her attack buff is probably outliers with HUGE modifiers like slag shot or rakham aerial shotgun build. That's about the only times they come in handy usually. But most people who know of this, optimize for it so they don't require buffs regardless. It's sad cause I like being a support player.. But support playstyles feel lackluster in this games design so far :(

[@danielj3277]

ghandgoza without a doubt he struggles getting full gauge consistently in most of the endgame fights but during link time that a diffrent time

[@zTribalX]

Funny enaugh i had more problems with Zeta timings than Siegfried for some reason xD

[@gh0stworks]

Probably because Siegfried timing is based on his animation which muscle memory would help. Zeta's timing depends on the enemy hitbox which is very wild in GBFR. Usually they're much larger than the model but every now and then it'll appear that the hitbox isn't as big at it seemed to be 😂

[@frederickwallace7808]

I can't seem to figure out Siegfrieds perfect execution lol

[@jolteon8213]

Same here. Find Siegfried's timings almost easy, where I struggle with Zeta's, and I'm on keyboard lol. I don't really get why he says Zeta's timing are less difficult honestly.

[@cheesura485]

Siegfried needs to have perfect timing on the full combo AND the attack has to hit in order to get the perfect execution (as a siegfried main, the boss moving away from me is the worst thing when you're about to land the perfect finisher :( )

[@mathuranravichandran3958]

I agree with the Io pick. Really easy to get a lot of bad Io's online who are always going down in fights or just never feel like they're contributing.

[@Hawntbawt]

I saw a vid breaking down a very elaborate less is more setup for Vane that puts out a lot more damage than the skillspam setup. Very low barrier to entry but still a high skill cap, especially when it comes to debating utility versus damage reduction versus optimal dps. Definitely very easy to do “good enough” on him though, sounds like what you said about Charlotta tbh.

atk again after animation. it would be the same time controller vibrates. dont click until he lands after jump attack.

[@reijhinru1474]

Im a Captain Main and honestly the character might be harder to play than most ppl think. Mastering him is hard in my opinion because of the fact that you have to time your skills pretty well. That means against every boss you have to adapt your playstyle to keep your skill art at maximum all the time.

[@srzarz3017]

Definitely automatic placement in the harder category for the captain, just simply because he doesn’t have a reliable dash to get to the target when the enemies open or down.

[@triplespearmint]

[@LucasTheBoi]

​@@srzarz3017 you do, kind of. If you do a basic attack into a thrust, then the thrust becomes a gap closer. It goes surprisingly far, and you can continue your combo from there. It has a similar, but I think slightly less range than armour break

[@ruty6099]

even tho its a month late and the skill cancel bug has been fix along with Rackams Shotgun DMG every character is fairly simple to play non are too hard. what makes a character hard is optimizing their potential to get the best results

[@Lashrom]

Even though Yodarha is one of the easiest to play with, he's also the best DPS when you have equipped good sigils. I always hit MVP and at the same time he's so fun to play with because he feels so OP. Almost the whole quest you can be invisible with him if you equip his Hero sigil. Surprisingly I find Narmaya really difficult to play with. The problem is knowing when switching stance, but because of the chaos it's sometimes difficult. Also the rotation from purple stance combo finisher to pink one and charge the attack. I automatically use normal attack right away one pink stance. Anyway, we really need to appreciate the devs of this game. They've done an excellent job on the combat system. Pretty refreshing for a ''hack and slash'' game.

[@DemonSesshyy]

[@nafereuskortex9055]

5:30 not gonna mention his hard CC

[@sqfzerzefsdf]

"Despite knowing that people struggle with perfect timing" and there you have it, you can't just write off her biggest challenge and call her easy based on it. Try consistently landing that on the games massive variety of enemies while flashes are going off everywhere and stuff moves off camera as they please. Her biggest strength is being able to extend when needed to avoid certain boss mechanics while still slamming down often enough to not drop her dps. this makes her really reliant on both the players understanding of enemies as well as being able to do that extension 100% of the time. There also seems to be no mention of her parry ability which on a rather small frame can be the difference between popping off or getting tapped.

[@darkhero2]

Personally I find most timing based things in this game very easy, idk maybe it's just the games that I tend to play like MH that I've gotten used to tight timings. As for the Parry I believe that would only work in making her an even easier character since you have a way to avoid damage, while applying the Fermare debuff And for a lot of lingering effects you don't even have to time the parry, just standing in a damaging zone will do it

[@sqfzerzefsdf]

@@darkhero2 problem is when using prelearned stuff from other games as a reference for rankings you get a scuffed view. for me io would be the easiest thing ever due to combo intensive mechanic knowledge but that doesn't reflect her for the playerbase as a whole.

Only one I don't agree with is Zeta, I for the LIFE OF ME, can not get that third air loop hit, the diffent timings depending on how long you delay the hit from the air and where the enemy is while also needing to be put in quite fast makes it quite difficult, and i main Siegfriend! Siegfried's, gadangoza and even narmaya all have very clear and set timings to each perfect attack. You just need to press the button the second you hear the hit make contact with a very clear and loud sound effect and these hits also don't differ in timings to much. (for narmaya this is right after every free flutter finnisher ends and after the dawnfly finisher's second hit.) And I now never miss any of these timings

I tried out everyone for a while but mainly, i used Zeta, Charlotta and now Katalina I used Rosetta a lot too but that was during the story and i still don't have her Terminus leveled up so i can't judge her in the endgame Also working on Ferry but not the braindead aerial spam, normal Ferry playstyle I just like the more technical characters Zeta as i have seen people in the comments say is definitely the hardest timing character since it depends on how far and which part of the enemy you hit, it is not static, being in the air does dodge some things but you are more vulnerable due to the lack of block and missing the timing can send you straight into a boss attack Charlotta i agree is much more than just spamming Noble Stance, NS is there mainly to replenish your CD with her sigil so that you can use her skills, especially Sword of Lumiel, as much as possible and use as many square air finishers as possible You have to watch your CD to know when you should use her parry into finisher so that you can use her skills to go back to NS fast and do more finishers And speaking of the parry, mastering that will let you be extremely aggresive with her second sigil cus 5 sec invincibility is massive, let's you either just ignore some multihit attacks or gives enough time to get out She is very satisfying to play Katalina, my latest obsession lol Imho, she is by far the most difficult melee character to play optimally, yes skills let her keep Ares out indefinitely if you can keep on attacking but that is not always the case She is very combo focused and knowing the right combos to use to get the Ares gauge full as fast and efficiently as possible is important, knowing when you should go all out cus when the boss moves, you most likely lose Ares which means some dps downtime for Kat, to use SBA with the gauge to take advantage of the stronger version with Ares, learn to end your combos with some support ability if you can before you lose Ares It's all about Ares Kat has cancels which, like Percival and Vaseraga, lets her keep the CD and get the finisher but they are much more tight windows She can also keep the gauge if she doesn't finish her entire Pact combo and starts it again right away which again, requires timing and watching Kat's animations to know when to stop and start I don't see Kat online, like ever cus i assume most people either don't know these things and find her underwhelming or do and find her clunky but man is it satisfying to get good with Katalina, she is easily my favourite melee character to play as now I want to build Vaseraga cus his charges reminds me of MH Greatsword playstyle and that is always a good thing Characters like Eugen and Rackam might be top dps but man playing as them puts me to sleep... That's nothing against people loving them, we all like different ways to play

[@Shad0wmoses]

i would assume so, if you are failing dps checks on some proud bosses and your main is at the best it can be at its current state.

[@SebastianThebrave]

Zeta should be at minimum hard tier. IF you want to play suboptimal and loop 3 times it’s easy sure. If you want to be optimal then you need to delay the button press to get double progression of a loop to access arvess hammer early. The timing is finicky and varies from situation to situation. Mastering this advanced loop on every enemy at the very least pushes the character up a tier or two. You also have to avoid launching yourself at monster parts that are out of reach, or focus breakables that vary the timing even more due to this usually being tails that move so much you can end up on the floor

[@paulojnior]

OMG OMG VANDER IS DEFINETLY THE HARDEST CHARACTER THIS DESERVES A MEGA LIKE FOR BEING SO REAL

[@gelofrancisco9725]

Rackham is a very easy character. You just want to push his aerial playstyle.

[@ounoun57]

You can put Cagliostro on easy as well. Her (He?) can just spam first combo (X,Y,Y) dodge cancel repeat and that gonna make her dps a lot more faster than charge Y cancel. pretty easy imo

[@6pixies316]

I awlays go x combo depending on the situation then using the double y + y charge if safe. Also using her buff almost on cooldown for as much uptime as possible. Constantly using her dash ability for gap closing but instead of her clone for safety i opted for the buff remover since it tends to help out a lot with bosses.. idk id say if you really want to play her at the best of her abilities you do need to turn your brain on sometimes

[@etaG]

As someone who tested all the characters, zetas difficulty as easy is sad to see. If your analysis is correct, then perfect looping, perfect parrying, when to evade, when to cancel skill animation, when to execute finisher for optimal damage, what part to specifically target, double loop tech for faster hammer, and boss move knowledge all in one character mastery is EASY. Though you did say that easy TO LEARN but not to MASTER so benefit of the doubt ig but yeah, Zeta is the only one I disagree on. It should at least be medium heck even hard.

[@JaekyAnthony]

Onslaught Ferry is somewhat difficult, but with the current state Aerial Ferry is by far the most braindead playstyle in the game. Skill cancels aint that hard to do, can be very easily performed on Umlauf and Strafe. The only thing that is relatively hard to do on Ferry is proccing her SBA on time because of how slow it is.

[@kurokaze85]

Vaseraga is the hardest while Siegfried/Eugene are the easiest for me

[@hutaosenpai]

why Vase? you charge and you win

[@kurokaze85]

I still cant master him, maybe because hes more of a stationary character compared to Siegfried who can follow targets easily

[@nafereuskortex9055]

Zeta has the hardest perfects, hers triggers when you hit, Saig and Gondo have a set, static timing that you can get muscle memory on, Zeta has to actually time it. But I think she's in the right place because she spends so much of her time considerably safer than most other characters.

[@pokkiarts]

Cag main here, I'm going to have to disagree. She's pretty simple and I think you went too hard on her. Simple guide: Use her Attack (x1, x3 or x4) -> Power Strike (x2) -> Collapse III -> Repeat. Pain Train is your highest damaging skill (spam this), use Phantasmagoria for extra DEF and can help with Crit, Alexandria (for Alexandria you wanna charge right after using)/Mimic Doll (you don't really want to use Pain Train after Mimic Doll, just walk) -> Collapse III. You only really want to dodge weave if you're going Attack (x4) -> Power Strike (x2) -> Collapse III, since this is you're highest DMG, Stun & DPS if you land everything BUT takes a long time to complete everything. But you're not missing out on too much damage if you decide to go the x1 or x3 lines with x3 actually being the most consistent of the four and you don't need to dodge weave on those.

[@johnashby9660]

[@Reshbal]

well in my opinion note just my opinion i think zeta has harder timing input than sieg in the long run sieg has fix timing if you're use to it even if you can't see the camera unlike zetas loop sometimes it depends on the movement of the boss or when the camera screw you even with the increase window sigil .. well just from my experience 😅😅

[@swordoflorn]

Io’s hard? It’s just a bunch of easy to spam animation cancels

[@Rayce_Istanus]

Man, i played Vaseraga and wanted to try Ghan, but holy shit he's bad. Ghan is mix of Vaseraga's slow DMG with even more annoying Sieg timing and No gap closers. Most disappointing character imo.

[@darkhero2]

Yeah it'ss pretty sad how he stands out in the cast as being the weakest

[@0kaiKai]

Completely disagree on Zeta. She is one of hardest characters. Both mechanicaly and requiring combat knowledge. Not only you have to do frame perfect button presses to loop, which have different timings demending on dive distance, so you can't do it by memorizing like Siegfried. You can also get oneshot by attacks spawning in sky without telegraphs. And all this for below awerage damage.

[@SebastianThebrave]

I heavily disagree about the "below average damage". Vengeful flame + supplementary dmg + skipping 1/3 of her loop into arvess hammer is insane damage. Training dummy dps isn't a perfect representation of true dps because enemies move. You're going to have a lot more uptime on Zeta than other characters that're forced to wait, you're going to be stunning monsters like crazy, and keeping debuffs on them at all times. I've only had 1 person do more dps than me in 15+ hours and that was a fully built cag and even then it was barely.

[@kaiber0390]

You can go screw off with that below average damage comment lmao, bro is capping ☠️

[@lucasgabrielgonsalves9626]

Io is not hard, but your skills are wrong. You don't use Concentration, because it doesn't stack with quick cast. Io's all about animation cancel. You use fire, charge Stargaze 2, cancel the animation with ice, quick cast Stargaze 2, animation cancel with a roll and use a charged attack to get 3 mystic orbs and through the quick cast, charge Stargaze 5. I was expecting you would say she's a easy or maybe medium character. But I would not put her at easy at all. She has a lot of optimization to increase her damage and also you need to learn the right moments to use her lightning to stun enemies to try to break their overdrive, skipping their bloodthirst phase. I think a medium difficult is fair for her. Maybe a hard, because it is not obvious what the best combo is when starting to play her. But once you understand her, she feels easy.

[@Keromimi]

You just summed up why she's hard last second by going "but once you understand her". She has a lot of tech that logically doesn't make sense. Case in point, being able to hold casts by hopping and letting go of gaze before you land on your feet, then resuming casting within two seconds-- that shit isn't all that logical, especially when you factor in that if you don't let go of Star Gaze before you land during it doesn't work. Not to mention other charges don't display that behavior. Or how she can block+evade simultaneously while holding a chant when blocking by itself breaks it. That one's even sillier. Concentration is another example you just brought up that is hardly understood because people keep shitting on it saying its worthless when it objectively is a strong dps gain but requires that you use improved dodge and do Star Gaze II's into hop cancels. Flowery Seven actively tells you to use the skill incorrectly by telling you to charge it, even with mystic charge, when all that charging it does is makes it guaranteed crits-- but who would care about that if you're crit capped? But that's not how the spell is defined. Not to mention that she graduates into a timing/animation cancel character like Siegfried and Zeta in that there's a steep cost for missing the cancel by making Gaze become glacial with a -30% cap. And if you're having problems with that, then they're likely going to have an even harder time doing the correct recovery tech such as channeling to their next available star, hopping, using a new spell off cd or a link, and resuming their original chant. I think you're just taking for granted work you've put into her.

[@Narigane]

Gandha is med? hahahaha H'e so simple and slow that you are just being a burden of the team if you dont get enough mastery over how to use him you will find yourself lost most of the time and wasted a lot of DPS window because how simple but troublesome his stack is. the only time he's shine througn is during 100% link atacks if you want to master him, you have to master aerial perfect combo, which unnecesary "hard" because once you missed the 1st timing, you combo basically fail, and you got 0 stack and dish out not even mediocre damage again, wasted dps window ground combo will guarantee your stacks even if you miss the perfect timing, but too damn slow even if you managed to get full stack you get last challenge : properly charge and hit the mob. even with charge attack sigil to shorten it, you still need build up the charge attack. that means if you accidentaly pull of your finger and didnt hold your Triangle button, that charge will be unleashed faster, discharge your sigil completely, but only dealt sad damage and during those charge, the boss could simply jump off away, or body slam you (like some of the dragons) but if you try to timing it too hard, again, you lost DPS window oportunity

[@ShouVertica]

I'm going to disagree: 1. Ghandagoza is probably the hardest character to perform optimal DPS. You have to timed attacks in succession 4 times on slow attacks and if you don't your dps drops by a lot. 2. Cag is not hard. Optimally for DPS you're just gonna play like Percival (Skill > Charge > SKill > Charge). 3. Io is not hard. The idea here is that you just lock on when casting. If anything Io is one of the easier to use characters since you can almost afk play her in the corner. 4. Id isn't hard either, he's just bad. His sigils give him stout heart at base so all you do is just spam skills and combos. There's very little thought to ID.

[@Sangka]

Io isn't hard but her optimization tech is. If you actually want to do damage with Io you're gunna need it. Recommend watching Leaflet's Io advance vids and it'll change your mind

I think for ID, its about the timing on when to transform to godmight form and when to use the dragonfrom to refresh it. Also the timing to use the debuff slow.

[@shiyuuhq9370]

The fact he mentions Zeta is "easy" to play makes me laugh, Zeta has a very high skill ceiling that even being 'good' isn't enough. The trigger to Zeta's loop can happen anywhere on the boss. If they lift their pinky and you clip it you have to loop there, if a dragons animation changes and you're in the air and you clip the tip of their wing, you need to trigger then, the foot, the tail, etc on All bosses. It's not just simply "Press Square when you need to trigger it." . The window is so strict even with the sigil, KZbinrs like this one seem to think "Ok forehead, you have a sigil, you're good." Sounds like a case of WoW warlocks using Krol Blades and firestones. You need beyond fight knowledge, and need to know what attack from bosses is AoE that hits in the air, and which don't. Plus Looping isn't optimal damage, you always want to arvess hammer, but looping lets you avoid mechs, you still need that knowledge of the boss specifically to know when to keep looping, when to arvess hammer. Horrible information on Zeta, and this is probably the same issues people with have with Sieg and Ghan.

[@GuiltyKit]

But actually performing everything you said is pretty easy. Any character needs to know specifics about each boss. She doesn't have a complicated rotation. All you have to do is have a basic knowledge of what the boss pattern is and execute it. There's nothing all that mechanically difficult about her even for a terrible player like myself.

[@setwhen2]

I’m sorry you can’t rank a character as easy to play if it takes getting all the way to endgame and getting all of their character specific stuff. 😂

[@darkhero2]

Yeah that's reasonable. I personally put him there because I got to the endgame in like 15h and I've put ~300h in the game, so it's like a small portion of playtime in comparison where I'd say he isn't easy. But I totally get what you're saying and why you'd disagree👍
