How you make punch strong?

[Samseng Yik]

The starter hero mech skill.
I feel like weakest among all heroes.
The animation is slow, seems like the purpose is more on clearing horde ?
It does not has synergy and utilization with other evolution?

Starter hero is only the one I play like "ignore the mech skill unless charging through horde + stagger"

It gets exponentially better as you upgrade it via the evolution tree. But it's still one of the weaker skills.

Crimson have synergies with Belligrence and crits, but even with all possible upgrades his skill is weakest of the bunch, only good for clumping enemies.

Rather, it has the advantage of covering a wide area at once.
This ability cannot be imitated by other characters, and has the advantage of being connected to a special move.
Once built, it's a four-digit damage storm.
However, it is not suitable for boss battles.

So after multiple similar content, safe to say this is only use to mob through mob then

You can use it on bosses but you have to find openings and at least have the upgrade not to penetrate super-armor enemies.

You can steer the punch left right left right as long as you don't have that non penetration thingy. Like roadrunner - confuse your enemies :D Meep Meep!
And you can use is for combos. Let's say you have the moon glaive thingy - use special attack to lift enemies in the air and then punch - you will drag them along. Works with enemies on the ground too. If you use the punch for hp recovery (you will on high alerts) - lure them to a wall, attack till they are in the air or down and then punch. No escape = more hits = more hp.

I think Crimson is the most fun to play. Only took me 2 million tries to beat alert 8 with him :D

Belligerence sucks for me on high alerts as you lose stacks when hit and I get hit a lot.
For me, it is easier to go for a well rounded package - increase dash charges, damage resistance, attack speed, hologram, phantom slashes blablablabla.

So with Crimson upgrading the mecha tree is basically mandatory, allowing you to direct the punch will help with it's uses alot, you basically just spam both directed, once you get dna upgrades DURING a run to like do more damage the more you hit with it, skill crits, etc it can carry runs for you if kitted out properly, crimson absolutely isn't the weakest, he's just more restricted but the payoff for that is pretty huge, having a good weapon skill goes a long way with him too given his ult gives you 4 seconds of invincibility and infinite cooldown on said weapon skill so paired with something like grasscutter that spawns turrets you can just slam a bunch down and go back to punching to build your gauge up again. getting the DNA upgrade that gives you an additional charge is also really nice. Crimson IS good, he's just restrictive. Kinda like Ayla.

[Samseng Yik]

Think Ayla far better than puncher.
Highest DPS in my eye
