Does it really make Whirlwind that much better?

    The cooldown decrease is mandatory.

    Otherwise meditate and whirlwind cooldowns do not match.

    100% on point.

    If you're planning on using her, the zeta is mandatory IMO
  • she don't work without the zeta, it's kinda yeeey if you use her

    I'm more curious about the -50% armor reduction. What difference in damage will there be? I don't know the equation that factors in armor to actual damage, but in actual game play what have people seen?

    On tanks its very significant, remember she also has 44 flat armor pen.

    As an example a 36% physical DR tank with half armor gone goes to about 20% DR. Add in 44 flat armor pen and its about 18%.

    So 64% non mitigated to 82% non mitigated is about a 28% increase in damage.

    If you just factor the zeta impact it is roughly a 24% increase in damage. On squishies it is much less probably a 15% increase.

    I mean personally I would make her FATz that is if I had the zeta mats

  • Fulcrum Ahsoka Tano is nearly useless against mixed faction teams that use Zarriss. Kinda funny, unless you spent money on Ahsoka and or dropped a Zeta on her.

    Are there shards where zariss is used in top arena? I don't remember seeing her in mine

    Plenty of shards use her or will bring her back if FATz appears in their arena

    You definitely need the zeta. Based on the times I used her I noticed that she misses frequently on her whirlwind ability.

    We should build team around her, otherwise she's useless. It think i have cheap version of her without need to build team around with nasty damage and more tanky : Zylo :smiley:
  • @RacerDejak if you run gk with her, and use his cleanse then you have the potential for many different buffs. For example, you don't need someone that can apply crit chance up (Leia) if you're fighting sunfac. With him, I've gotten about 9 buffs probably with FAT's meditate.
  • zarris doesnt counter her. when zarris is used gk is used and gk counters the zarris countering the fulcrum lol.

    but yes its mandatory and awesome

    Couldn't agree more. She's worthless without it.

  • Yes, I just Zeta'd her yesterday and she is 100x better. The not being able to evade part is just huge when playing against Zaul or any other team for that matter. Evading 7-8 attacks even if they are not crits just su ***.

    Less cooldown and -50% armor are just making it that much better.

    The top of my shard all use the std triple cleanse except sub GK to leader and zBarris instead of Rex.
