are you asking to buff vergil?

#

unless im misunderstanding something

tall mesa
# brave frost are you asking to buff vergil?

Not exactly, I'd say he could be even debuffed in favor of him gaining an access to his given mechanics, just looks like a loss imo
But basically yeah? I mean, countermeasures can be taken to even it out

brave frost
#

if you are asking for a buff, then i disagree

tall mesa
#

I think I would put it this way: Make his follow-up accessible but lower his damage if its an overkill

#

without the need of other stuff

#

but feel free to debate me!

#

ill listen

brave frost
#

and a rebalance is never happening lol, if something is not fundamentally broken with his kit or he does not break things in the game then its highly unnessasry

brave frost
#

why would virgil need this "rebalance"

tall mesa
#

Well, worth a shot I guess? But the reasoning is that he doesn't really scale to Dante

#

in multiple ways

#

Dante gets easy access to everything he was given in the passives, Vergil needs a synergy
He is still strong, but that doesnt make much sense to me

brave frost
#

i mean i don't play the game anymore all i know is that vergil and dante are both top meta for damage

tall mesa
#

again, not a problem of damage as much as it is about the mechanics, less satisfying seemingly

brave frost
#

and if hes already top meta i don't see a point in rebalancing him

tall mesa
#

In simpler terms, but I can elaborate if you want me to

brave frost
#

please do

frozen cliff
#

..?

#

What?

#

You want to nerf Vergil for what reason?

tall mesa
#

nono

#

i dont wanna nerf him

frozen cliff
#

so why do you want buff him?

#

he has 136k dps in dt form now,

#

do you know how busted that will be for PvP?

brave frost
#

idk

tall mesa
#

yep, basically

#

think of it as a mini overhaul

brave frost
#

something about not satisfying

frozen cliff
tall mesa
#

itsnot exactly a buff nor a nerf

frozen cliff
#

probably nerfing him rather than buffing him

#

🙏

brave frost
tall mesa
#

it just takes a bit to type out im sorry 😭

brave frost
#

alr

frozen cliff
#

"dante takes way less hits to get his dt"

tall mesa
frozen cliff
#

vergil only need two follow up attacks to enter his dt form

#

dante's dt only lasts for 24s

tardy dust
#

is this a suggestion to buff vergil or am i missing something

frozen cliff
#

vergil is 30s

tardy dust
#

if you meet his requirements hes soaring with the highest dps in the game

brave frost
tardy dust
#

you can easily fix the dt issue by simply using his 2nd passive or the new familiar, the follow up attacks count

tardy dust
tall mesa
#

Dante's follow-ups are consistent and they dont require you to have any other units in the play, the thing is that there are criterias that I just dont see a reason for to access him
So just tweaking it a little would make sense to me, I don't know
Again, its probably too much work for something that isn't necessary on paper, but I also wanna see if other people would get where im coming from with this point

tardy dust
#

vergil's dps with his follow ups is SIGNIFICANTLY higher than dante using his

#

dante's follow ups have both a less chance and less damage output in comparison

#

i dont really think tweaking is needed to either of their kits, in fact to me both of them are extremely powerful

#

depending on the usage you want for them, id say they're pretty equal overall ngl

tall mesa
#

But wouldn't Dante's lack of need to have another unit present make him more long-lasting on the long run? The problem is that by adding Deadeye you're basically making him throw out attacks consecutively, chaining his DT in 4 seconds
So this need to have one slot taken away by a stunner/freezer or rely on a teammate with it adds inconvenience that I feel is somewhat unnecessary
I do think that you're right, that on the right ground Vergil works meticulously, but tweaking I believe is needed just so he doesn't require any more than Dante does, because it just feels like there is no particular reason for that "stunned/frozen" requirement in the first place, feels like a bit of an extra
And that damage-nerfing suggestion is just an example, I'm sure there are better solutions to even it out if the lack of this previously mentioned requirement makes it over-the-top

#

Sorry for the length of text

#

Also, do you think that Dante is better than Vergil overall, given most of the present gamemodes? Most people seem to claim so without any arguments, so I feel like the majority is one-sided about it. You have a fair point about calling them pretty equal, but I rarely see people consider that

#

Maybe that's just the influence of the tierlist, though

frozen cliff

#

so far, all i've been reading is that you're showing hints that you don't play the game or don't know how they work

tall mesa
#

I got both the units and used them around for a week or so, but most of my points stem from the fact that no one really considers Vergil a stronger pick when put up to Dante. I dont personally think either are weak, again, this was previously mentioned, the whole point of a suggestion doesn't come from me not knowing mechanics, it's the opposite; i'm trying to offer something that would avoid that mechanics that, I feel like, is not needed in general, which in the first place requires me to have a general knowledge on them
Yes, I don't know about the new familiar because I didn't really play on the new update, so maybe that's some new game-changer, but having to use multiple additions to a unit to get the full extent of his arsenal just seems like something that makes no sense to me for multiple reasons
Thanks for your criticism, though, feel free to ask anything that you found confusing

#

Oh yeah, my bad, Leminsuka here mentioned there that they are pretty equal, but thats the first time ive seen it being mentioned, so that's why I put it up in the first place

#

But also I guess since so far everyone sees this as an unnecessary/bad suggestion, I'll probably forget about it soon enough. Thanks everyone for debating me, actually helps me with understanding the stronger points of the unit.

#

I've just seen the new familiar, that does change it a lot

#

Though, it's not exactly a place for it but

#

what about the doppelganger positioning? Do you know if its supposed to be this way

tardy dust
tall mesa
#

or if its a bug

tardy dust
#

They have their strengths and downsides, that's what I take from it

tardy dust
tall mesa
#

So nothing would really change if he was standing next to him
I just saw some people complain on the doppelganger being a mile away, but it seems like it doesnt affect anything aside from just looking odd

#

Another out of topic question

tall mesa
#

in a theoretical scenario, what synergy would work best for Vergil to reach his full output potential? I mentioned before not playing on the update, and people mentioned that having Katakuri makes a generous difference in Vergil
That includes both familiars and units, what would you use for him?

long torrent
#

Esdeath and todo

tardy dust
#

Katakuri’s buff to Vergil is quite small, since he doesn’t apply stun all that frequently

tall mesa
#

Alright, thanks for the talk PPL

#

yall are nice, ty for opening my eyes on it, I guess I was wrong after all

#

and sorry for the yap wall

#

have a nice day, everyone
