What's the use of dragon form with cathay LL?
I can't get a good idea of why they're useful except making you a bigger target? I can't find anywhere in game what the use is. What exactly does it do..? Except make you big and beautiful.

Pros:
- Better combat stats (has more armor, has armor piercing damage; base form has low AP)
- better combat animations (more splash damage)
- allows you to throw small targets around / prevent you from being thrown around by large enemies
- allows you to fly over defences / walls to go after their high value targets
- has separate HP regen cap

Cons:
- makes you a bullet / arrow sponge
- worse tanking potential (makes you a larger target so more enemies can hit you at once)
- reduced spell casting
- Dragon Miao is not as hot as human Miao (unless you're into dragons).

Better combat stats and abilities at the cost of most of your spell casting.

46 hours game time and you don't even know what the dragon form does? Wow!
Its pretty niche, its a good travel form obviously cuz u can fly, also a good way to escape from a bad situation if ur blocked on the ground. The bigger hitbox is a big problem, hence why you see the one man army versions usually stay in human form. The 2nd form is really good cuz it gives u a 2nd healing cap though, so double the hp to heal from is pretty good. Also attacking air i guess or not getting staggered as much.

It is pretty simple. I don't see why you needed to make a post for this?

Never played Cathay lol.



Thanks for the rest of the comments, appreciated. I think I just expected a bit more of it.

"A bit more"? You can solo entire armies in dragon form if you know what you are doing, and you expect more?

Just read the tooltips and stop wasting internet space.

Thank you.

Early game. If I was late game I probably already would've known it. I'm literally in turn 5. I was just curious as I didn't really see much of a change.

Except I did, it said more powerful melee attacks, but early game this is barely noticeable, hence why I asked because I was curious if I missed something obvious that wasn't mentioned anywhere. Go be a douche elsewhere.

So the fact that it gets stronger with level ups, items and skill points did not occur to you?

People are being weirdly aggressive af in this post and giving insulting non-answers even though you didn't even legit mock Cathay or the LLs or... really anything at all

Sorry you gotta deal with the ragebabies here my man - I'm glad you got an actually useful answer recently though! Best of luck tearing up Chaos in defense of the Great Bastion (or making buds with the Ogres)!

It's quite alright, I don't even understand the hyper aggressive comments I got lol. I always thought forums was about asking questions but I suppose not, hah. Thanks though! I've got my answer. :)
