I'd like to question Red Velvet choice in Drift Battles.
So far from my experience node difficulty is Boss -> Armour -> Stun -> Immunity (questionable) -> rest.
For boss node due to elemental advantage requirements she can only reasonably counter AF.
For armour node her SA has potential for locking defensive SAs but does nothing against the modifier itself. IMHO here she loses to Rusty in most cases.
For Stun node she's in the usual place compared to other anti-defensive SA fighters.
For immunity node she's just your another Elisa.
IMHO she's only as good in rift battles as other potential fire candidates are bad (or at least bring no utility to the table).
Her place in drifts so far looks like "i'm not made out of diamond SKs, so I'll have to get by with alternatives when applicable".
First off, thanks for the feedback!
Yeah I took a bit of a leap with Red Velvet being rated so high on the list, though I'd like to also place the point that in Rift Battles you'll have a very high chance of encountering REs, UTs and AFs. Furthermore, these defensive fighters could be placed sporadically around the base... I'm sure many don't have multiple well invested SKs to deal with them, so having a strong RV is a reasonable investment and choice against these fighters. Giving Velvet Diamond would definitely add to her reliability.
As for the Immunity node, you generally wouldn't want to choose a Debuff oriented Fighter anyways. Also, SK is
Water, so her ranking as a
Water elemental defensive SA counter, shouldn't affect RV's. Rusty is a
Light Fighter and will be judged accordingly on that list.
*whenever it comes out*
The point is, Red Velvet is going up against other
Fire Fighters that don't really match her level of niche. So it shows on her ranking as a candidate for
Fire Essence Consumption.
