Or, I use points for CD's shield just so she could steal it three turns in a row and freeze me in the end... If paired with yellow one, god help you, doesn't even matter if you go first or second, you're toast. Remove the buffs as many times as you like, but stealing all of them every turn is highly unfair and OP. Even 100% chance with limited number of buffs she can steal would be better than current state. Just my 0.02$ though.

Yeah, won't argue with that. I in fact already met one equipped with Strike Talismans. Sure, her damage goes way down, but it is incredibly effective.

The main problem is that she cannot be countered reasonably because of her passive. At the moment you need one toon to strip immunity off her and another to stun her...with both reliying on chances the odds aren't good. You are also absolutely required to bring a Hellhound/Rocket Dog or you have immediately lost when going first because of perma freeze - unless you are pumped full of Immunity Talismans. All that trouble with a single character...

Sparton, could you please check the resistance and resilience talismans. They don't show their effect. Are they working?
Thanks for your effort.

Not sure why people feel it's OP. She's good but it's not vaulting me to the top of the rankings. It's not helping my defense much either. Its just that most other characters have been made weak for the sake of "balance". Let's call for buffs instead of nerfs. Bring back the axis commander! Was that name really too offensive? We got all kinds of Satan and an Eddie who rips his heart out. Why the hell was that changed anyway? Bring him back to his original glory!

Can't recall that I ever complained about any toon being OP (not here anyway). I even liked old Prisoner, was easier to beat than now but this, this... Idk, you can put all six different talis on her and she'd still get every buff, shield or other from enemy. Imho that's everything but fair, but then again, who am I to judge.

MCR is a 4*, she's meant to be good. Yet she is also easily countered. Have not lost to one all week. Just think about what you are doing.

Any changes and she's a bench warmer in my opinion. GCR is fine too. Takes a while to kill but she still dies. Damn SSD with strike talismans are my nemesis. But I wouldn't change that either. Way too much tweaking going on with this game in my humble opinion.

Edit: by the way, I wasn't directly responding to your post Ringe, I just happened to post at the same time. I've seen a lot of comments about her lately and I get scared. The devs love to ruin, I mean balance good characters

Maybe somebody can enlighten me about the Death Dog - intended or bug?

Description says that he should remove buffs from up to 2 enemies. Is that 0, 1 or 2 - or should that be at least 2?

I'm experimenting with new attack strategies and have done a few fights with the dog but all he ever does is removing buffs from 1 enemy.

Thanks!

No offense given or taken dude, I am against her, not against you, you just gave me a foothold to dump a load on her :D

I'm interested in this too, just pulled him yesterday from fourth vortex... Might be good :D

Newborns of light assasin and warrior also strip buffs and they have passive counterattack procing on other teammates too. Magus cr is fine as she is.

Oh man, is she into that kinda thing? I might have to send her to sacrifice.

Seriously though, I'm gonna try putting 2 of them in my defense and see if it goes up from the pathetic 13% it's at right now. I don't think it'll make much difference though. She's pretty easy to take out.
