Blair's skill kit sucks

[jandraelune]

I thought Freyna had a low dmg tic rate, that's a nope. And his C ability to restore mana,, but he's never OOM, he gets locked out by cooldown. His V ability is why when his Q does more and doesn't lock him out of other functions. His Z however is like a D&D fireball.

get a good build. that will fix the issue for you...

you need skill power, cooldown reduction. skill duration, Skill range

I started with ajax and unlocked Freyna asap and mained her for good 2 weeks. and her damage is not low if you know how to make a build for her.. she has amazing tick damage, huge range, and her ultimate ability does huge amount of damage!

I am guessing you havent heard of nimble fingers have you o.o That skill is a must for most bunnys >.>

Blair isn't in a good place right now. I watched the video on the "MELT BOSSES WITH 12M METEOR!" build and it is so silly, it just isn't worth the time. It requires you to knock the boss down, put down 3 puddles and then throw your meteor. It crits for 7m-12 mil and then the boss stands up. So you can do that once every minute. Sounds useful, no? Vs, using ultimate lepic or lepic and just activating your overclock, blasting the boss in the chest 4-5 times (Depends on your duration.) and being able to do it again in 45 seconds (Depending on your cool down.) each hit can crit for 3.6-4.2 millon and then does swirl damage+burn damage, meaning you hit for over 12 million lol.

I am basically getting him for master rank thingy

Freyna dmg tic is low after using Valby for awhile. Same skill power lvl on all three, Blair is the weak link.

I have a fully built blair, and have no issues spamming my skills and my ticks hit for 80-100k depending on enemy you are fighting and map.
V does 170-200k per tick while firing.

That's not a damage amount to be proud of for a fully built descendant though... Yujin The HEALER hits harder than that.

Youjin has no damage skills. He only gets a semi-one with his skill module.
If you have no idea how to build say so, and learn. because by the sound of your original post you simply have no clue.

Blair is fun with the red mod that increases damage with weapons.

You get a nice buff from consuming the fire patches, and another nice buff from having them on the ground - Q-Q-Q-C-Z and melt all the things.

[Hybernian]

Yep
Q - 0 range, small puddles without any impact damage
C - the buff is noticeable on puddles and burn, with cooldown mods you can make use of it for your puddles at some point in the fight, but it's a bad design
V - Flamethrower that locks you in the animation, and which could've been a good single target damage option for Blair if its damage increased the longer you hit the same enemy, but it doesn't. Its duration also doesn't scale with duration increase mods and stats
Z - The damage is just straight up bad, especially for a 2 minute cooldown. Viessa deals 6000% damage every minute and chills enemies, Lepic deals slightly more burst damage in a single shot than all 4 of Blair's fireballs do in comparison and deal DOT too.
Blair's skills also not only don't stack burn, they don't even reset the duration until one burn instance ends, so let's say the enemy stood in 12 second puddle and then puddle disappeared. He won't be burning for another 5 seconds after the puddle disappeared. Only for 3 seconds.

And overall he is a caster with no range, no impact damage, no mobility and no defense. These traits should be mutually exclusive and such character should've never existed

And by comparison, Freyna's puddles are ranged and they have impact damage. Her poison apparently stacks and she also get 25% DEF increase. Just think about it. She is already range and still gets defense increase. And her Ultimate deals tons of damage.
Then Valby. She doesn't get DEF, but she gets TWO mobility skills on top of her puddles being ranged too. And I guess you could say that mobility (and teleport i-frames) is a form of defense too.

I don't know how could anyone keep looking at Blair since beta and think he is ok.

And to add an insult to an injury, the module that's put behind one of the later hard mod colossus and sounds like it could partially restore Blair to what he should've always had in base, has a hidden trade-off that actually has more cons than pros.
