How good is T4 Cinq Don?

[Mastema]

Title. Considering upping her as well, though might try Fluid Sac too seeing how it targets 3 slots now similar to Telepole. Are both worth the spend or nah?

Don's T4 is sparse, her S1 goes from +1 to +2 to coin power at speed 7+
her S2 gets a damage bonus based on clash length and the bind switches from [Heads hit] to [on hit]
Her S3 goes from +2 to +3 coin power at 10+ speed, gets more damage bonus based on clash length, and gets an [on kill] SP restore.
And her dodge turns blue.
It's not nothing, but similar to Cliffshower, it's an upgrade you do because it's a favourite ID, not because it's an impressive increase.

T4 improvement is quite good, especially compared with other confusing garbage.

Still, it's only worth it when you got spared thread

That's.. doesn't sound like a small change at all. Pretty huge actually. And people told me it does nothing for her. Personally I wouldn't bother uptying her at all if I couldn't uptie her to t4.

there's a decent number of changes, but the speed requirement on S1 and S3 ensures it can't matter, if she's getting the bonus it's nowhere near needed, and the SP on kills is something you don't want because her S3 is what you you to open fights, if you can get the kill with it, you could also save it far a different target and not miss out on her Duel bonus.
The damage bonuses based on Clash length are a neat idea, but clash length is not a controllable factor, so outside of the handful of skills that have a lot of coins (even then you'll need a lot of luck), it'll never be a significant factor.

Not good enough, if limited resource, I recommend you uptier W Don to 4 instead of Cinq

[Topiocalizuzumab]

More unga bunga win rate friendly than W Don, but there isn't really a good synergistic EGO for C Don imho. W Don is probably better because Don actually has EGO that synergizes, and said EGO Telepole also got pretty desirable T4 upgrade . Both has significant T4 upgrade, which is gonna be really hard on your resources.

Overall it's kind meh, not because the ID is meh but because we are in a relative severe drought of resources especially threads due to T4, and Don happens to have the 2 ID and Telepole that actually wants the T4 upgrade.

Mine is still at T3 and she really doesn't add more, if not a little worse, comparing to old established T3 ID meta with R Health, N Sinclair, 6 Ishmael, Spice Yisang, Honglu etc. etc. T4ing C Don will obviously change it, but I don't really it is worth the resources to upgrade, considering how little synergy she has with other IDs and her own EGOs.

Cinq Don is easier to winrate than W Don but is a bit like Rosespanner Rodion in that you need to use moves in sequence to get the most out of her. I actually think Shi Don is better for speed dungeon clears than either of them. Cinq seems more suited to longer fights or small pride teams, or even solo, where she can flood herself with haste bonuses. I think she's a neat ID but you have to think about what you're going to do with her.

[Reptiloid]

Meh. It doesn't buff her much.
