[@besttoiletfixerever]

From Source A, I can infer that the author (ESGOO) wish to convey that one of the E.G.O with a capability to heal is the worst E.G.O ingame. Source A show an E.G.O sihoulette with a healing symbol on the side of the shadow. This implies that the worst E.G.O ingame can heal you. Therefore, ESGOO message in this source is that Fluid Sack is the worst E.G.O ingame. (i failed the written exam :(

[@therexdragonblade6821]

dont forget the GOAT ++ upgrade that makes the potency and count gain go to +3 AND makes the activation condition regular degular old Resonance instead of Absolute Resonance, so you dont even need to line up 3 pride skills in a row and can just have 2 period.

[@DemonKing19951]

I thought this would be about 4th Match Flame Yi Sang. While I don't think Soda Lu is *good* by any means, I always thought about Soda Lu as a "Fluid Sac we have at home" and I still use Soda Lu in my envy res teams that include Ting Tang Hong Lu. The current Opportunity Cost for equipping Hong Lu with Soda also isn't really that bad at the moment, It's either Soda or Roseate Desires, neither of which are great. Roseate is very niche in what it can do, and while Soda realistically only either heals HP or SP in negligible amounts that is a lot less niche compared to what Roseate can do. The only thing FMF Yi sang has going for it is that it's a 5 attack weight on a TETH and Slash, and it's going up against Wishing Cairn. Who has a higher floor than fmf's ceiling, has 3 attack weight, and is usable for it's EGO passive alone

[@ITAndroMedian]

Change all [On Attack End] into [On Hit] effects and suddenly all healing gets multiplied by the effective Attack Weight, which can go as high as 3, becoming a 90 HP (or SP) heal. Not to say it'll save it by any means, but if we are to explore options that don't involve bringing back the % sign...

[@anabsoluteimbecile4105]

The only reason I dislike Lifetime Stewclair more than Soda Hong Lu is because back when I was grinding Hell's Chicken, Sinclair only seemed to hit tails, which gives burn to its targets, even if they're allies, and when I got Soda Hong Lu I was at least happy that his tails effect didn't actively damage my team, though nowadays I do think they are both horrible.

[@Cosporcos-Q]

Consider. Soda hong lu has the best animations of any awakening ego. Therefore, it can not be the worst because it has a niche.

In Lobcorp the soda vending machine was a goofy, zayin grade abno that was almost impossible to fail at, and even if you did fail the employee wouldn't die but be whisked away to work on a shrimp fishing boat (which considering the workplace safety standards of L Corp could almost be called favorable).
