Yang and Pyrrha are my personal favorite characters. Ruby's ultimate can be upgraded to draw in her enemies. Jaune can buff his allies by 100%. But objectively no one character is better than any other. It's all about preferences and knowing how to use them.

Oh, we are kinda the same.
I actually like Pyrrha and Yang too, being Pyrrha my favorite character ( :'( ) and Yang my second one, and probably Jaune my third. But i felt like probably some characters are more strongest i don't know why, Blake is obviusly full of spamm where others characters can't i think.

I also read that Pyrrha counter is an AoE stun but i don't see any of that, maybe they changed her?

It isn't an area of effect stun and never was, but she IS the only character with a ranged counter.

Any of them really if you know how to use them.

Blake once you get her ranged stun beam makes the game really easy, and if you up her team attack it becomes even easier. Stun, heavy attack the group of enemies, and then just team attack the ones that didnt die.

In terms of sheer damage, I would definitely say Nora.
But as pointed out, each have their pros and cons.
 Nora is slow for example, means more chances to get hit.
 And Blake has her stun beams, good for group control.
 And Weiss, she got nothing. jk.
Now this is a very bare bone comparison, obviously. And you can not just state their stats and expect that to represent something, as the context of the game needs to be accounted for too.

(I don't like Nora though)

Weiss for range spam
Remember when Yang was able to keep a combo forever?

Literally that damage output is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ absurd, i got owned in points only because she was doing so much ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ damage with just spamming that ♥♥♥♥ and she was last hiting every mob. So op.

Also, maxing the counter atributtes gives the counter an AOE kind of effect, so yes she does make an stun effect in area.

Pyrrha's "Ricochet" isn't AoE.
It is only reflected from the enemy to the enemy.
It can be up to 6 times.

AoE's stun is Blake's "Earth Clone", Ren's "Improved Aura Charge" and "Draining Aura Charge".
However, it is the blake's "Stun Blade" that can stun most enemies.

Ruby's "Electric Blast" stuns up to 4 enemies.

In comparison with "we can fight a lot of enemies without death”, blake is considered to be the most powerful.

That's why i said "Aoe kind of effect". Because it at least goes and affects more enemies.
Pretty useful if you ask me, it's a shame they have to be more lineal and that sttuf in order to Ricochet but hey, it's amazing anyways.

Also i'm thinking Jaune it's pretty amazing for clearing, his heavy really does nice damage and instant kills some, while with Pyrrha or Yang you can kill 2 or 3 at most.

I just really think Yang is one of the worst character sadly. If i were to say.

Nah, Yang is quite good. Level 3 ultimate Aftershock and those pillars are some good crowd control as they last for a few seconds, and still damage if an enemy runs into it. Best by far when paired with Second Wind so every 30 seconds you get full ult charge, and of course Improved Ultimate 1 and 2 so you can spam out her ult time and again. Survivor also highly suggested as you'll often go down to crit (you want to, after all). That leaves you with one last point.

Otherwise while most ignore it or don't realize it, but her level 3 range is actually quite good. It pales though for the above listed build is better, and it is about tied with Weiss's level 2 range so Weiss is generally the better option if you want to range as her's is cheaper.

Since Ricochet can fly multiple shields at the same time, the enemy who makes a counter-attackable attack is the fastest stunning speed.

Except for the White Android group, we will fight easy next to Blake.

Jaune is good at strengthening the team and getting a high score, but his own combat ability is low.
When many enemies can not make opportunities for team attacks, they will be forced to struggle hard.

Yang has some enemies who are not good at it, but she is a very strong character.
She does not use abilities but can deal more quickly than Ren's "Furious Warp Strike".

When Charge (long push of the Heavy Attack button) is analyzed from the speed and forward distance, your favorite Pyrrha is the strongest, Yang is the second strongest.
