... Bother making a Xenon? - AcidAutumn - 2013-06-04

I am maining Demon Avenger. I think no more words need to be said about why I'm considering not even making a Xenon.

For those of you ignorant or dim-witted, I will spell it out.

-Demon Avenger only uses HP
-Xenon link gives % AllStats ONLY
-Demon Avenger gains little benefit from STR
-AllStats does not include HP

NOW, why is this a question of whether or not I should make it? Well, I am considering submaining another class alongside Demon Avenger, and every other class uses stats.

I think I'm going to submain an Evan.

So, should I bother even making a Xenon, whose linkskill is useless for my soon-to-be new main?

You've already said a Xenon gives nothing for your DA and I think that's accurate.

However, every single other character in the game benefits from the link skill. If you play other character(s) even occasionally, Xenon's link + character card benefit them. Maybe you'll even have fun lvling it for a bit? I usually enjoy taking a break from my main to level link skill mules every once in a while.

What IS Xenon's card? More AllStats? If it's not %, it does SOMETHING for Avenger at least. And I will probably be playing an Evan as a submain, if one is out by then. I suppose it benefits pretty well from the link.

IIRC it's +20 all stats for the card which is something, but not spectacular.

Xenon's character card is +5/10/20/40 STR/DEX/LUK.

^ Xenon's card. I'd still make one to help out my sub-mains and it's useful if you want a Thief/Pirate deck but otherwise not really.

Consider that while Xenon's link doesn't help that main, it most likely will help your NEXT main, and every single other character you may sub main.

leveling to 120 isn't that hard, go for it.

The dyslexia is strong with this one.

I said I'm considering not making one, not that I am not considering making one.

True. Point conceded.

MuscleWizard Wrote:leveling to 120 isn't that hard, go for it.

It's not the time factor so much as it is taking up a character slot. I have very limited character slots now.

Okay, I stand corrected. Dyslexia*

I always spell that wrong.

Anyway guys, I dunno what to delete for Xenon. If they don't give us char slots (which they should), I have no slots for Xenon.

Does this work with your %stat?

This thread is funny.

What do you mean? Are you making fun of me for considering not making a character who, to my main, just takes up space?

Then dont worry about it? If your not going to have a slot, and are not interesting in making one, dont delete a character.


... Bother making a Xenon? - Curtiss - 2013-06-04

One thing you're going to have to consider though is that Xenon has been open for creation only once. Essentially it boils down to settling your previous question since that will determine if Xenon is useful for you and I'm pretty sure he will have a slot since that's a lot of $$$.

All the other cards (Lumi Kaiser AB) just give a flat +X regardless of how much %stat you have.
Probably same thing with Xenon.


... Bother making a Xenon? - Takebacker - 2013-06-04

I don't think you should underestimate the effect STR has on your demon avenger. If it's anything like secondary stat on any other character, it can make more of a difference than you would think. Getting hyper dex was like 3-4k range for me.

Not what I was asking. I meant does it stack with your %stat? Like how IA +stat doesn't stack, but the other cards do. I am wondering if it follows the same pattern
