REAL Odda Review From Free Ops Player

[@turtoid]

I guess you could say he's... catching a L-Odda L's?

[@alifakbar4232]

*throwing tomatoes*

[@marisaordinaria]

Oddabros... it's so odder...

[@sola3147]

He looks cool, I'll give him that. We get our own playable Sarkaz Merc

[@jamessilva1259]

He Actually is an Babel member. His loser of a father was the Merc. He rescued a child and brought em to Babel for first Aid, and joined them an Operator. and now serves as a Rhodes Island Messenger that is stationed Kazdel.

[@sola3147]

@@jamessilva1259 I knew he was a babel member. I just meant his e2 art makes him our very own playable Sarkaz Mercenary

[@jamessilva1259]

@@sola3147 Yeah he is very cool.

[@Kimri]

Not sure if Flamebringer counts but i guess technically W was our first playable Sarkaz merc, followed by her squadmates. Again, on the top of my head, i might very well be forgetting some folks but the trio stand out the most.

[@sola3147]

@@Kimri by "playable sarkaz merc" I meant the actual "sarkaz mercenary" enemy mob we have in-game lol. His e2 art has the mask sarkaz mercs wear and all that stuff

[@TakeMyLunch]

Flamebringer and Odda clearing a level together! \o/

[@alifakbar4232]

It doesn't matter whether he's useless or not to me, i already do his S1M3 and hoping for Earthshaker module so he can be better (it won't fix anything)

[@aizeroth8858]

Module will probably be deal 60% instead of 50% aoe damage, or something like that.

[@cemanz]

Honestly if it's 75% I'm pretty satisfied already​@@aizeroth8858

[@Ezekiel_Allium]

*does a fat line of copium (frostnova ashes)* Module will increase Aftershock AOE to 150% attack, trust.

[@dalgona4819]

I never really understood the point of Earthshaker, IG they just need something to make Pepe stand out when they released her lol

[@demilung]

Big hammer go bood, that's the point. Don't overthink it

[@cupcake5478]

> However, highmore skill 1 does kind of the same thing with Odda skill 1. But this archtype deals more damage, just saying. It just matters if I want a healable AOE guard or not. This just made me realize. Earthshaker stats (1200~ ish atk, 1.8 aspd) are almost literally halfway between Centurions/Reapers (800~ atk, 1.2/1.3 aspd) and Crushers (1600~ atk, 2.5 aspd). Maybe they're supposed to be halfway lane holders with some ability to handle elites? idk

[@Zackery_Dempsey]

Not much to say about Odda, but I really like the way you utilized Folinic's strengths, especially at 4:03.

[@marielcarey4288]

Folinic genuinely surprised me with how fun and good she is to use in combat. A medic that turns into an aa sniper aoe caster hybrid while healing allies caught in the attack area is a lot of fun to play around with

[@Yammatti]

7:40 omg she actually said PANORAMAAAAA!!! YAY

[@jamessilva1259]

Cool character review! I see his limitations! However he will make a super addition to other Operators that exploits and do extra damage on elevated Targets! Also, he is a cool character in the story.

[@EmuachPuff]

His archetype is so weird, I'll never understand why HG made this archetype. I only build him on my welfare acc (+ he's cute). Tried to use his s2 for funny but ended up disappointed

[@echigokurogane8612]

They made this branch for one simple reason: Pepe.

[@reversal3628]

​@@echigokurogane8612 if there's any class that only 6 stars worth to build(not just for niche people but to everyone in general), then it's failed class. Pepe hand goes brrr.

[@prd6617]

@@reversal3628 ifrit also came in mind, there are only 3 of them atm and she is the most non niche of the 3

[@user-mg4rc1qw6w]

​@@echigokurogane8612 and she isn't even good either

[@skarhabekgreyrukh8601]

but I like Odda, he is decent and atleast usable. look again at the damage..Odda is faaar better than wind chimes or other crusher.

[@drsnorlax_felineknights]

As a simple dokutah, i see folinic being used, i'm happy 😊

[@selensewar]

I'm so sad that we have so many cool operators that i want to build and use who are at the same time not particularly useful. And i have to make priorities on who to raise, you know.

[@chiifuhxd]

i really love his en voice so i instant build him to lv69 s1m3 lol

[@mrf143]

Wait, why can't HG make the AoE proximity based? If enemies on the center of the AoE, said enemies took 100% dmg. While enemies further out took less damage, down to 50%.

[@mrf143]

Well, The AoE is small so maybe it won't do much

[@skarhabekgreyrukh8601]

hard to optimize for the game.

[@mrf143]

@@skarhabekgreyrukh8601 There's a relic in IS that increase your damage based on your distance to enemies right? They've got the formula then. I'm no game dev and it might be hard, but very much doable.

[@byeguyssry]

​@@mrf143 I'm not sure how the IS Relic works, but I know that the Deadeye Sniper Module X only increases ATK for every tile. So 1.4 tiles away would be the same as 1 tile away (I don't know how it's rounded though). Making it count fractions of a tile would be very weird. For instance, if Odda blocks two enemies who have the exact same pathing, the one he's not attacking wouldn't take the full damage, because two enemies cannot take up the exact same spot and would be shifted up or down slightly (see the cheese strategy against the Lucent Arrowhead boss)

[@adamvegas5951]

Odda doesn’t look too great but on the other hand he has the bonk power

[@ifanakrill]

Try his En voice 😏

[@chiifuhxd]

omg yes odda en voice superior

[@tahraki4918]

Honestly that's the only reason I'm even building him. It's so good

[@Kokokbeluk]

havent heard his en voice, i'll do it later

[@VilArknights]

It's important to note flinger snipers deal 100% of their attack in a small aoe, they just have a 50% shockwave in a larger radius. This isn't particularly relevant to Odda it's just important to clarify that Flingers DON'T work this way

[@ungulatemanalpha]

why did they put the kid from bastion in arknights

[@demilung]

Man, if only they made a wellfare operator that further pushes the meta so we could complain about power creep. Or at least make a safe and boring operator that does the same things as some others, so that we could complain about them running out of ideas. I mean, who even tries something new in such a safe way that won't get peopke angry for rolling him since he's free?

[@Kirbultra]

i mean galdia lungmen and scene exist so

[@Yammatti]

As much as i didn't want to think of it I think earthshaker is kinda Uh Useless They don't have the range of flingers, nor the stats from whatever guard branch they would want Hyper i know you love guards, but pls just make something funny haha instead of a questionable archetype that has so much competition over aoe guard standards

[@Peslesolo]

AoE with big dmg, why the hate?

[@yume750]

4:30 What do you mean "doesn't matter" ?.. I was expecting praise for watching 😢

[@Kokokbeluk]

should've choose better word, my bad

[@yume750]

@@Kokokbeluk I was just joking my man, you're golden

[@cefrinaldi8060]

When he first released i was pretty excited and wanted to build him. But there are so many people saying he is trash and so many video saying he is pointless. After much consideration and with this video of an actual odda review, i think i will bench him forever and not raise him.

[@rw6611]

I'd rather watch review of Folinic's beautiful skin.

[@Kokokbeluk]

bare feet...

[@lucasleong8529]

He aint even hot, instant bench Anyw hope theres a fringe use case of him absolutely cheesing a boss with that levitate

[@rw6611]

He can't levitate bosses because they all have more than 3 weight and he can't levitate his main target, only enemies around it. So it's highly unlikely he can cheeze anything, just another statstick guard.

[@mlhx9181]

​@@rw6611Perhaps he could work to operate Stainless' turrets with multi hit. Any enemies hit by shockwaves from attacking the turret could be levitated too.

[@rw6611]

@@mlhx9181 dps increase from turrets would be pretty good, but levitate won't work still. Turrets have negative taunt, he's not gonna target them if there's enemies in range.

[@lucasleong8529]

@@rw6611 i meant more like a boss that spawns stuff near it like that boss in is3 where u dps the boss while stalling the peons. Ik thats a very very specific set of requirements but he needs that to be usable lol

[@rw6611]

@@lucasleong8529 ah I see, makes sense. Although I don't think he's gonna be particularly good against this boss as is, some IS buffs definitely can make him interesting choice. But not on max difficulty, he's gonna die there extremely fast.
