The devs designed the current update to create a weakness for her through implementing piercing attacks.Wait so maples biggest weakness is dot's that arent poison? Until she gets something that makes elements and bleeding a joke I guess
isn't calling her a raid boss low balling her?The devs designed the current update to create a weakness for her through implementing piercing attacks.
Her biggest weakness I’d say is being surrounded by tanks that can keep her grounded and pinned with ranged characters behind firing attacks with piercing damage. The raid boss treatment so to say (cause..., she might as well be one).
Haha, I get the joke. Though at the current part of the story I feel that’s about right; with 3 forms (4 if you count angel wings) and no special mechanics.isn't calling her a raid boss low balling her?

Later when she has more “forms” and can summon mobs though... (which what you probably have in mind). I’m not sure she can be pinned by tanks anymore which makes her closer to be classified as... a party wipe mechanic perhaps?
She already has raid boss form tho (the big mode of her crawling chaos series)
Maple transform raid boss mode
Sally uses shadow clone on Maple to create 3 more raid boss
Kaede use similar thing for 3 more clones
Pillar Men theme intensifies
Maple can only be damaged by pierce damage. with her defense almost 5 digits big, i'm sure the explosion isn't 5 digits in damage worth to inflict. just my thought. since the manga/wm/anime never really covered it.Aren't self-destruct moves usually absolute damage based on the remaining HP of the caster (or remaining HP depending on the mechanic).
Same. Never read the LN either, so it's just how I thought self-destruct moves would typically operate in game ^^;Maple can only be damaged by pierce damage. with her defense almost 5 digits big, i'm sure the explosion isn't 5 digits in damage worth to inflict. just my thought. since the manga/wm/anime never really covered it.
Most games make Self-destruct be based on the HP(either max or current) of the user... Mii being a mage would probably make her HP not that high so even with an absurdly high damage modifier or it having def pierce/ignore it shouldn't matter much to Maple's HP.Same.

Except Maple's HP is definitely lower than Mii... Maple hasn't put a single point in HP, so the value is the same as a lvl 1 character. She does have a ring and a passive skill that gives a little extra HP, but compared to a normal tank it might as well be nonexistant, which is why her HP drops like a rock when she is hit by the DoT. Only when she wears her white armor does she have a lot of HP, as that armor is specialized in boosting HP (because all the skills bound to the angel form costs HP to use)Most games make Self-destruct be based on the HP(either max or current) of the user...
