I somehow got Bailu E3 (7 days into the game) and i never really had to use two healers anyway in the start of the game. Eventually i goy Fu Xuan too so Lynx was also never plaued by me. The only abundance I really play nowdays is Bailu and Gallagher
as someone who got Lynx early on from a pull.... I HATED using her for anything. her Taunt caused more problems than it solved consistently, and the heals just felt pathetic constantly, the heal over time couldnt keep up with enemy dps. I actually recently E6'd Natasha and decided with that to move the relics I had on Lynx over to Nat to make her my secondary generic healer for 2 team stuff (main healer is Bailu, Superbreak team has Gallagher of course). I have NO doubt I'll be replacing Nat as soon as I get Huohuo buuuut.... Lynx was just too frustrating to use regularly, Nat is simple and basic but sometimes simple just works.
Natasha has been the only healer I’ve used since I’ve started the game, and I’ve just been trying to get my other healers(lynx and Gallagher) up to a high enough level to use since I got both of them while I was on equilibrium level 3
I remember all I had for a healer for a long time was Natasha. If it weren't for her and her healing, I wouldn't have been able to clear so much challenging content. Never had a 5 star healer since the game came out. Yeah, I have Bailu as my only 5 star healer as of right now, but I use her in only certain fights. Heck, I remember using both Aventurine and Bailu during the boss fight with Sunday. Honestly, Aventurine just does most of the work on my teams without much need of a healer. I'd rather have Luocha as my 5 star healer, so I have to wait til he gets a rerun again. Haven't built up Gallagher yet, so I gotta do that to get a backup.
I got Gepard before I got Nat and I remember thinking I wouldn't need her since I have Gepard yet my brother told me I'll need a healer too so I lvled her as well. After using her a few times I definitely didn't like her so I barely used her and like when I got Luocha it was joever for her, I never put her on any other team till this day. Then eventually I got Huohuo and Aventurine as well so I don't need anymore sustain and I remember getting Luocha since I was so tired of using Nat plus I was gonna pull Blade and I did lvl Lynx a bit plus had got alot of eidolons for her when her originally came out.
In the later game sure you'll have better units but she's a very good free Healer in the start. Can heal a lot, cleanse. And she isn't bad. And tbh bailu is worst because she has no cleanse and weird random healing.
I still use Natasha, like she was a life saver for me during the entire Belebog & Xianzhou sagas. And even more so on Penacony. I refuse to drop her. I refuse!!
Really the only reason now is because there's so many other better sustain options (healers + shielders alike) that offer more than Natasha. Back in 1.0 everyone used her because she was literally the only healer in the game other than bailu, and Natasha could be argued to be better than bailu if cleanse was needed
Despite everything you said .. .my team would be literally dead without her so No I have worked really hard on mine and she always heals everyone with over 2000 hp especially when we need it the most. May I suggest you put a shield on Natasha when you are in battle to make the most to keep her surviving along with the team. Also so long as you are NOT competing with someone else.. Meta that term.. does not exist or count. This isn't yugioh or some other tcg.. so meta.. doesn't matter in this case.
yeah, Natasha is just a free basic character that gets outclassed by every other abundance type later, the only reasn I kept using her was bacousa she was already build and I didn't wanted to build Lynx lol
Ever since Phantylia I've been reluctant to use her, and now that I have Bailu and Gallagher, I just run them. The Game8 tier list puts Natasha at A right now, but she should be in B.
Prydwen has her at T4, which is pretty near the bottom. Say what you want about prydwen tier list but putting her against literally every other sustain in the game there is no reason to rank her higher than any of them (except arguably bailu because of her lack of cleanse but even then bailu heals way more)
She's just straight up bad, that's it. It was my most used character because i didn't have any sustainers for like 7 months except her. As soon as i got lynx/gepard i never used natasha again
