Saya inconsistent passive

[crimson mesa]

Saya has a passive ability similar to other characters with a special Realm, however, something I don’t understand is why her main passive doesn’t scale with Sigil Yield to increase the propagation caro effects: what’s the point of giving her passive effects on E+ with Sigil Yield if the main passive, which is the core of her mechanics, only scales with Realm Mastery, besides the fact that this very passive is limited, and I don’t understand why they limit it if Arachne is a character who can literally charge the Prism of Singularity infinitely why limit Saya’s Embryos and give free rein to another character? especially since Saya’s buffs are limited to ultimates . It’s not like Arachne can´t enable insane bursts, healing, power, shield boosts everything essential with cards and still has no limits. It bothers me because what’s the point of upgrading this character to +12 if her core function doesn’t change at all whether it’s E0 or E12+ especially since her other power comes from the Soulforge Aptitude, meaning 40 stacks that could easily be in the main passive. They put them in an additional passive when Arachne already comes with all her upgrades and potential in her base kit it’s really ridiculous

[fading quiver]

It looks like someone made a bad investment
I think it's pretty clear that characters like that aren't worth it +12

why her main passive doesn’t scale with Sigil Yield to increase the propagation caro effects
you can revisit the last 6 character releases or so

scaling stat passives are part of character e1 effects now and have been for a while

they're no longer tied to a character's built in e0 passive

it's a dev decision

[crimson mesa]

Yeah, I get that part. I think the passives on the E+s are okay. But what really bothers me are the stats on Caro’s Propagation passive: they scale purely off Realm Mastery, when Saya is a Black Yield stat character who barely gets any Realm Mastery. On top of that, the Embryos have a cap on their passive, and Caro’s Propagation passive effect is tied to Soulforge Aptitude.

oh so that's where the Arachne comparison comes from. Yeah, Saya passive (propagation caro) is kind of fool that only really shines in Arc 2 though to be fair, it still stacks a ton of corrosion

[crimson mesa]

The point is why do they limit her realm passive so much compared to Arachne?

[smoky gulch]

that is a realm passive, not a unit passive thecnically

so if other unit come out with the realm, they too will have to have the realm mastery passive

[crimson mesa]

Arachne gets 10 Singularity Prism points just for doing a Pursuit. It's ridiculous to me that something like that isn't just baked into Saya's passive now.

[brisk matrix]

in a way, she's like GMurphy, the realm passive want RM (and max HP... kinda) but she herself wants Keyflare (or Crit), but unlike Sigil Yield, those stats r actually good and beneficial for the team
