I just saw wellplayedninjas’s video of her sweep Lash ignoring LoS checks, lol. Play her before the nerfs come!

After playing around with her a bit, I really don’t like how slow MV is (you’re talking to a Zephyr player, there is a certain way I need to play this game, and it starts but does not end at +90% parkour speed), so I think Storm at least lets you spread vuln further and faster than waiting for the cast to blanket enemies in nice warm glass.

How does she scale off cast speed in general? I notice the sweep variant of Lash is a full body cast, although I’m not sure if it’s subject to parkour cancels. I don’t think I’m going to click with this frame if I can’t remedy how much she needs to stop moving.

Awesome, thanks for testing this! Next week I’ll try some TA runs where I move a specific sticker up through successive missions. (Like, AXX then XAX where A is a cursed sticker.)

Siphon + Eruption also augments her CC kit, and now that she’s an Influence nuker the enemies getting yeeted away isn’t as much of a KPM drag any more.

The chicken bones bae herself. Or the not stonks frame. What? She’s the glass frame? Sure I guess!

I want to get into Gara but she just doesn’t seem to have helminth slots, so she’s kind of confusing for Circuit. Mass Vitrify is kind of cool but scales poorly, so you’re locked into Spectrorage, and possibly also Siphon/Eruption too. I do appreciate how much CC she brings to the table, and honestly Spectrorage is kind of cracked.

Theoretically, Mending Splinters gives her extraordinary DR, since the health regen opens her up to exploit the RageThinking loop for a whole lot of DR. You know, on top of 90% from Splinter Storm. If you like that kind of build.

I think Gara has a lot of room for experimentation due to how powerful and interesting her augments are. But this is also a curse because she only has so many augment slots, and wants to go in so many directions at once. I still have not cracked the code!

Shattered Storm looks interesting due to applying Damage Vuln to everything hit. I assume it suffers from LoS checks though.

Any thoughts as a Gara player?

I wonder if I need to keep Splinter Storm if I’m doing a Shattered Storm build, given it’s an augment for her 1 and triggers off her 4…

Weird, last week I didn’t get extra pix chips when I did my second run for the week to help friends catch up. I had my cursed peely pix in the same order as my first run that week.

I’ll try doing a run with them reordered, but maybe the lockout is per cursed peely pix?
