tbh marksmen aren't supposed to break through high def so all ela did is be 'what if marksmen were unbalanced' (tho marksmen should ignore def when they hit air targets tho, that's literally their job why do they suck at it)
"Why is she a great boss killer?'' of course it's because of the fragile effects (yeah I know, the skills itself gives her a great attack buff (she could delas 65k+ damage alone without fragile)). But still, 35% fragile at M3 is a really nasty effects for a fugging damage dealer operator. But if you really think about it, any boss killer + Suzuran also will deals a great amount of damage, even tho it means that you need to bring 2 operators + time the skill perfectly
That dmg + rate of fire is like the middle ground between Exu and Typhon/Rosa. It looks like she'll tickle high armor enemies but better than Exu, while dish out higher dps than Typhon/Rosa against low armor enemies. She might work well with buffers/debuffers but idk if she'll outperform Exu, or even Pozemka on this.
Yeah but the important part is that she can be low or high ground lol. not to mention her ability to debuff or cc enemies. Thinking of her in just damage terms is definitely short sighted imho.
Ela completely powercreeps Exusiai on every level, she has more total damage, higher single atk (handles medium def), and higher dps. As for buffs, why waste a buff on Exu when you can buff Degenbrecher?
So her mines is equivalent to thrm X And she is the Hortus free operator type operator DPS since she using bullets and every bullets hit hard. She is in my opinion not a trap master, more to a sniper class got denbuked and thus put to specialist like how gladiia case here🤔
As expected from one of the highest picked Operators of Rainbow 6 Siege *They didnt dissapoint.* She can say to Dorothy: "Leave the Boss to me. Just watch my back."
Imagine in the near future HG decided to screw it all and put us fighting against Prime Patriot but the funny thing is that it's going to be like the one from Exalter event, so you just have to survive from his attack because he's invincible to all attack while fending off his troops coming straight up to the blue box. Forget about the first one, we might ended up fighting the Old Daemon tbh
To be honest, she’s not even the most broken dps. Obviously there’s mlynar, but there’s also ray and typhon with infinite range, zhuo le with self sustain, degen with stupidly high AoE damage, and so on. You can already see from how tanky newer bosses are and how many invinciblility phases they have (like damazti) compared to older ones
Ok did they just create Ash 2.0? or exu 3.0 Exu: Shoot buns of bullet to enimies Ash: Shoot buns of bullet in short time with stun Ela:Shoot buns of bullet with slow and deal more dmg
Her module also lets her 'traps' be deployed on ranged tiles, so she gets to use every available tile on any given map for both herself and her 'traps'.
Ela is the better version of "jack of all trades" to be honest, while having the power of crits on her mines, she can't be a master of none, even if its not the best, she is one of the very good options for a lot of rols, even blocking with her S2 is viable thanks to her busted module, not the best, but can fulfill her rol just fine, and thats what matters. She is the Queen of Versatility.
