I like crits & elemental focus a lot. They say she’s supposed to be like Zer0, so I hope that means you actually have to aim for crits. This game isn’t hurting for another auto crit VH

The whole game is basically who can stack enough crit rate, fire rate, and then infinite ammo. I'm sure she'll be the same.

u/SdotPaul504 Harlowe The Gravitar Sep 03 '26

The fact that you can make a power ranking of who has the best infini auto crit setup among the VHs is nothing short of ridiculous. What happened to uniqueness in VHs?

6

u/Panda_PLS Sep 03 '26

They got rid of that by making gameplay elements that make some unique skills impossible to use, and designed other unique skills in ways that can cause frustration (looking at you skills that can only auto aim but not at invisible enemies)

This is why I stopped playing every video feels the same

u/MarcosSenesi Sep 03 '26

Malignant Construct is the name of her skill that involves summoning the cyber worm/dragon. I love the look of it, I hope it's a pet class they manage to make work, but if not I'll still enjoy it anyways. I'm just a sucker for pet/summoner classes, I always gravitate torwards them.

I jumped back into WoW recently because I missed playing the Hunter lol.

u/Nezgarethell Vex The Siren Sep 03 '26

It looks closer to Deathtrap than Fl4k’s style of pet, but I’m really liking all the Symbiosis passive stuff they have with it

2

u/UnluckyFish Sep 03 '26

Same, I tried so hard to make a Trouble pet build work so when that never worked as well as any other builds I fell off the game. If Loveless’ summoning/pet is a viable build that for sure could bring me back.

Kinda bounced off the game a month back, have they seriously not fixed Trouble yet?

The hell, they did better with pets in 3 and Wonderlands.

u/MikeSouthPaw Sep 03 '26

They have done zero balance patches since you stopped playing.

u/Arcade_Gann0n Vex The Siren Sep 03 '26

That's rough.

u/Dangerous-Sky548 Sep 03 '26

I came here to say aggro spotted. Glad hes doing well!

I’m so happy I found my ppl lmfaoo was just randomly scrolling and I see his face from the BD4 subreddit and I was WTF he moved on this now! Good for him so proud

u/A_GenericUser Sep 03 '26

I have to imagine Loveless will be fun to play — some of the best god kits in Smite were by him

u/Mysticjosh Sep 03 '26

He did my boy Maui well so I'm keen to try Loveless out

u/someshooter #1 Ava Fan Sep 03 '26

Note - at the end the guy says balancing other VHs will occur on the 10th too, RIP C4SH :D

u/ApprehensiveRelief90 Sep 03 '26

More nerfs to rafa woooo!!

1

u/someshooter #1 Ava Fan Sep 03 '26

If they're sane they'll put Dancer back to 100%, or even 150%.

1

u/ApprehensiveRelief90 Sep 03 '26

I’d even be happy with atleast 120%

u/mp3help Sep 03 '26

Sniper skills let's go!!!!

2

u/stormstalker777 JAKOBS Sep 04 '26

RIGHT? FINALLY

it's a bit weird that vex got a "sniping" class mod tho And now we have real sniping skills with OTHER vault hunter

2

u/KingOndor Sep 04 '26

We can always have two snipers. Vex has Blood Shot + Bleed. We'll have to see if she can beat Vex or not

1

u/stormstalker777 JAKOBS Sep 04 '26

Tbh my problem with this is The actual sniping gameplay is a really really niche in this type of shooter Separating core aspects of it is not smart I understand why theyre scared of sniping lol But still For the sake of good design and fulfilling experience, having more than one traditional sniper is not good

With that said, even vex with a class mode felt... Kinda thrown there (bloodshot is a really cool mechanic for sniping tho)

u/NightmareDJK Sep 03 '26

Who is voicing her? Sounds familiar.

5

u/Mewtwohavoka Sep 03 '26

She sounds like Lilith to me.

3

u/NightmareDJK Sep 03 '26

It’s Colleen Clinkenbeard most likely then.

u/RedditSubUser Sep 03 '26

Plague Star seems like it might be the new GOAT

7

u/PompompurinPal Sep 03 '26

When they said she can do stuff with all of the elements but specializes in radiation and corrosion does that mean she's like Vex? Like in the character selection menu Vex has a special symbol for all of the elements and then a separate kinetic icon as well.

If I'm interpreting that right, then that would be cool, because Vex didn't feel as good as the other sirens did imo.

3

u/neatcleaver Trouble Sep 03 '26

Yeah that's my biggest issue with Vex that turned me away from her

I liked the sirens because they were great at just spamming every DoT in the game on enemies

Nothing she has hits like Maya's Ruin with Helios and Cloud Kill just annihilating an entire group with elements

She can use every element unlike others who are more specialised (like Amon fire, cryo and shock) but you struggle to make us of all of them because of the bigger skill trees and how all the element bonus skills are spread out

I'd like to be able to use all the remnant and element boosting skills at once but it's impossible right now and I don't think it will be even with the next level cap increase

u/Substantial_Life4773 Sep 03 '26

Jesus Christ their script is awful lol

u/Royal-Party-3558 Sep 03 '26

Nice! A Poison Character💚

u/keyboardlegendthe3rd 26d ago

I don't care about her, Now give my boy Rafa his mojo back you goons!

u/Hi_ItsRem Vex The Siren Sep 03 '26

IMO, it's really boring. It's a mix of things we've seen over and over for years, where as Cash brought a breath of fresh air. Not a fan.
