tell me one f2p with a full team of monarchs bro 🥀

pliant thistle
#

i can give u a few of my friends users rn

#

its not rare to have considering the amount of rerolls u get

#

zSvoler

#

even if people dont have one now

#

its an arising issue that'll become a big issue in the future

#

kinda like als but not nearly as bad

covert galleon
#

so because everyone can get the trait its bad thing?

pliant thistle
#

are u gonna use the units if u dont get monarch on them aswell

covert galleon
#

you do know the units do more things than just damage right?

pliant thistle
#

they dont

covert galleon
#

I wasn't asking the players

pliant thistle
#

bc cid is horrible since he doesnt do crazy braindead damage

hushed yoke
#

The thing is that theres not a lot of units that are bad with monarch (even ragna is decent with one, if at least we consider ragna as decent)

gaunt hamlet
#

Well i thought monarch was balanced around the fact that it was really rare, having multiple monarchs makes the already pretty easy game into a babies game.

late wigeon
#

Double the cost thumbsup

covert galleon
pliant thistle
#

thats why it worked in aa so well bc it was so p2w

#

it doesnt work as well in a game as f2p as av

gaunt hamlet
covert galleon
#

I fail to see how the p2w is a good thing

pliant thistle
#

thats why i made this suggestion

#

a p2w trait doesnt work in a f2p game

gaunt hamlet
#

I don’t really fw traits in general caro

pliant thistle
#

its unbalanced horrible

pliant thistle
#

if they'

#

are done right

#

its fine

covert galleon
#

so, monarch is too easy to get so it should be nerfed, because it would be too hard to get on new units therefore you would never use new units.

gaunt hamlet
#

Doubt they would ever change traits tho

covert galleon
#

Do you see my confusion with this whole argument?

pliant thistle
#

i see ur confusion

#

hold on

hushed yoke
pliant thistle
gaunt hamlet
#

Eh

#

Decently

hushed yoke
pliant thistle
#

right

gaunt hamlet
#

Wouldn’t say its good

pliant thistle
#

and the next update comes out

#

with good units

#

ur never gonna use them on ur team unless they either have monarch, or ur playing a gamemode where traits are disabled

#

so many youtubers have addressed their concern with this

wraith lynx
#

I like how nobody ever acknowledges that the damage part isn’t usually the problem with the trait’s strength and gogeta is the only unit that actually really benefits because he’s a one place

pliant thistle
#

but none of them care

covert galleon
covert galleon
#

and if its too hard to get on the new units, then that voids the first half of what you said

pliant thistle
#

its all rng based thats the point of the issue there's no telling when or what ur gonna get

#

and when u do get it

#

its horribly balanced

gaunt hamlet
#

Huh

late wigeon
pliant thistle
#

he costs 200k?????

gaunt hamlet
#

Yeah i don’t know what poster is talking about

covert galleon
#

So because you correctly invested your resources and went all in on strong units, you should be punished by us nerfing monarch to make you want to use the new units? Wouldn't you still just prefer the stronger units anyways?

pliant thistle
wraith lynx
#

I think the point they tried to make was “I got monarch on my last update units, and they’re gonna be better than the next update units if I don’t get monarch on the next update units, this is bad design”

late wigeon
pliant thistle
#

except for the fact

#

people only go for monarch on meta units

pliant thistle
#

with monarch they are useable for like who knows how many updates

wraith lynx
#

What if most every unit that releases is meta though….

late wigeon
#

The derailers arrived shock shock shock

#

Run!!!

hushed yoke
covert galleon
wraith lynx
#

Maybe they aren’t meta because of monarch but because they have strong kits…

wraith lynx
#

That doesn’t sound backwards to me

wraith lynx
#

No, no it’s not really.

hushed yoke
#

I think this suggestion would be better if it was "make units like ragna"

pliant thistle
wraith lynx
#

It’s just that monarch shines in short form content because of its cost efficiency

covert galleon
wraith lynx
#

If you had unlimited yen in every stage, monarch would more often than not just be a worse outcome

pliant thistle
late wigeon
#

If Monarch wasnt the best and intended by design, more units would experiment with placement above 3 BabyRubyShruggie

wraith lynx
#

I mean, even 3 placements tend to lose out to eth/deadeye now

pliant thistle
#

my point is they could have been way more creative with their trait system

wraith lynx
#

Monarch’s biggest strength is the cost efficiency

covert galleon
wraith lynx
#

Because very rarely will you have a mode that’s long enough to make use of all your placements

pliant thistle
#

it worked in aa purely bc of how p2w it was

wraith lynx
#

Also there’s literally no way to nerf traits at this point

pliant thistle
#

is this game anywhere near as p2w

wraith lynx
#

Without causing a huge uproar in the community

late wigeon
pliant thistle
wraith lynx
#

Because people spent money and/or grinded for those traits, so if they were nerfed in any way, it would end up being a terrible move

pliant thistle
#

trait systems ruin games

wraith lynx
#

Which sucks, because it’d be nice to have them a little closer together or maybe make monarch one of those placement scaling traits, because it means 1 placement units have to be very thought about because monarch just makes them absurd

robust notch
#

Please just delete ts

wraith lynx
#

Case in point, gogeta

pliant thistle
wraith lynx
#

But there’s no way to rework it by now.

pliant thistle
#

kinda like sovereign in apd

pliant thistle
robust notch
wraith lynx
#

Units are still generally good with or without monarch because of the way their kits function, anyways

robust notch
#

I ain't the one making an ass suggestion

pliant thistle
wraith lynx
#

And the strength comes less from the damage buff itself but more about condensing the damage into a unit that costs a third or quarter as much as usual

wraith lynx
#

I mean, if you’re looking at units in a vacuum, a vast majority of them are better without

#

But there are circumstances where the condensed damage is just better. Like Yamamoto or vsjw if you wanna play around elite summons

#

And also just… Every progressive stage lol

pliant thistle
late wigeon
#

Actually comical that the RNG trait is becoming the best over time (Deadeye)

wraith lynx
#

Yen makes the gameplay go round

#

I’m level 235 f2p I don’t have a single monarch

dry dew
#

So I’ve read a bit and I think I’m understanding the “point” you are trying to make however i feel like you are pretty bias because having a monarch unit doesn’t mean you can’t use any new released units, with that logic, since I have gotten Toji and sukuna monarch back when they got released I should be still using them above anything else because “Monarch is too op to try anything else” but, you are missing one of the most if not the most important part of the unit, the passive, you could have monarch saiko would you use her instead of cid ? Or if you have monarch sasuke would you use him instead of katakuri ? Monarch doesn’t do everything, sometimes even with monarch the dps isn’t good or worth it or it’s the passive that’s lacking, those people who are doing the “not using if not monarch” are usually heavy p2w players with a lot of monarchs because they have “unlimited” robux (Nagblox) and even him use different units based on the passive when needed even so he has around 30 monarch and yes he would go for monarch on every units he wants / needs because he can, monarch makes obviously progressing easier but passives are at least as much important

#

Enjoy the yapping smile

I prefer monarch seiko than cid tbh lmao

dry dew

#

I can say it cause i actually have monarch seiko 💔

If cid didn’t lose his buffs on swap he’ll be really good Ngl

He is alr in a good state

#

I rolled on okarun back in the days, kinda regret it

hushed yoke
#

Okarun released in such a bad state, hes prob the worst curse unit in the game

tame zenith
#

I will say it can seem like there are a lot of rrs being given out but at the same time monarch is a .1% chance or at least it’s 1/1000 and even if you spend 1000 you’re not guaranteed to get a monarch and I have monarch sukuna but I use other units because he’s not actually that good unless I don’t feel like farming for the stage I don’t use him often and the whole point about the game is to use the units you like but yeah sure sometimes you have to use a different unit for a certain stage but for the most part you can play how ever you want to play and I’m still playing waiting for updates from my anime’s jjba and naruto and when those updates do come out I’m gonna get the units shiny and hopefully save enough rrs for a monarch. One thing this game does really well is not power creep super heavy sure sometimes units are better than others but it allows you to use your favorite units. Monarch isn’t necessary but it sure does make progression easier

dry dew
hushed yoke
#

Oh the shiny is fire tho

dry dew

#

this suggestion completely ignored the fact that the devs made TRAITLESS gamemodes

lunar aspen
#

as long as it doesnt become like ALS

#

i do not care

queen vale
fallow maple
#

react to chair

#

and monarch is fine the way as it is

#

its not needed on every unit to deal good dmg

#

🪑

queen vale
#

Literally got a f2p battle pass unit that out can potentially out dps monarch gogeta with ethereal/deadeye, and got another battle pass unit that hits top 3 with deadeye 💔

mighty veldt
#

since none of my Monarchs was reliable on pity or robux bundles

#

i only bought battlepasses who only got me Shiny Units, bc the Rerolls barely got me Solar sometimes

stone oxide
mighty veldt
#

eh

mighty veldt
#

i still think Monarch as a must have is kinda bad

#

bc i miss 5-6 placement units

#

Cha-In was the only Mythic+ with 5 placements

queen vale
#

Deadeye Cid out performs monarch Cid in terms of overall dps in infinite even if you don’t use his ability, deadeye dante out performs, deadeye vergil majorly out performs now that his doppel is fixed, deadeye vsjw out performs monarch in some modes, lowkey don’t even see the problem

#

Gogeta was realistically the only unit that 100% required monarch

inland turtle
#

They gotta add more

queen vale
# inland turtle They gotta add more

They talked on stage about adding a lot more units that weren’t monarch exclusive, but then again bro also said “you guys have dante” etc when we meant like ragna 💀

inland turtle
#

😭😭

#

Well ragna mechanic is unique, but like higher placement units

queen vale
#

Yeah would be nice to get more units like Choy that function on having more placements for dps

#

Rather than just go get monarch on everything

#

Or make them mega cheap at least so the point monarch don’t even matter compared to other traits dps 💔

inland turtle
#

That also sounds cool

#

Cheap but high placement

#

We got ichigo for cheap but the cost is sad

#

Rem and ram was good

queen vale
#

Yeah rem and ram was by far one of the best non monarch progressive units for a while

strange hedge
mighty veldt
pliant thistle
#

this guy gets it

mighty veldt
#

Never Heard of Deadeye Cid being any good so idk what to say abt him

strange hedge
#

the only time that scaling is based around monarch is in tournaments or other modes that have a trait disabled mode to be w it

strange hedge
#

monarch shouldn't be nerfed or anything

queen vale
#

All units are “better” for progression with monarch

#

Though dps is literally a different story except for placing limits almost

strange hedge
queen vale
#

The argument entirely is dumb

mighty veldt
queen vale
mighty veldt
#

but i think its NOT happening

strange hedge
queen vale
#

No one is forced to get monarch fr 🥀

strange hedge
#

yea u can beat the game with ethereal units

#

my friends have before

queen vale
#

it just takes 30 minutes but hey

mighty veldt
strange hedge
#

yea CID raid is the only thing that may take monarch on hard mode

queen vale
strange hedge
#

that and later legends stages but u can transfer now so

queen vale
#

You won’t even want monarch if they nerf it or rework it

pliant thistle
#

only reason it’s here is bc this was originally an aa copy

mighty veldt
#

As It goes, im not using new Units traitless, only If they are supports, i got so many good Monarchs that using new Units without a trait is pointless

queen vale
pliant thistle
#

obv it’s too late now

queen vale
#

I don’t see any harm in traits considering in AA you could get roughly 600 rrs after a year probably, and in AV it takes a week

pliant thistle
queen vale
#

AA also nuked their traits with double traits

#

And the fact you could get double unique on vegito

pliant thistle
#

only reason unique was good is bc their game was super p2w

#

this game is way different

mighty veldt
#

also, Unique Dps increase for 3 placements Units was bigger than Divine

queen vale
#

As long as that’s not done with some obscure power scaling with needing monarch to be required to do anything it’s fine imo

#

I’ve been playing AV lately with traitless units regardless just because there has been no one i’ve wanted to roll on besides VSJW

#

I don’t get the real argument as a whole 💔

neon solar
#

Since the last updates, Av has been working on the fact that the passive is the most important part of a unit. And not the blunt damage. That's why traits are not the most important thing in many cases. And since the game is very f2p friendly, you can easily get traits today anyway

queen vale
mighty veldt
#

Deadeye outperforms Ethereal in most cases now, i think the game is getting in a good way

queen vale
strange hedge
#

I currently only have a gripe with the familiar system

queen vale
#

Though, there are arguments being held on this discord saying “monarch is too easy, nerf rrs overall or remove monarch” lol

#

Bad takes all around honestly

neon solar
#

fr

strange hedge
#

this guy probably paid for stuff in AA and is upset av's equivalent to unique isn't that special

mighty veldt
#

isnt a super fantastic moment like AA

#

Its just "wow, now this Unit has a good trait so i can start use it finally"

#

Cid ahh situation

inland turtle
pliant thistle
#

you dont NEED one

#

but the community makes you think you do

neon solar
#

just don't understand why monarch should be changed

inland turtle
pliant thistle
#

its more that the devs could have been more creative but ig its in the past too late for them to make any changes now

inland turtle
#

Yeah

#

Changing it now is a problem

neon solar
#

I wouldn't say that they could really make traits better

mighty veldt
inland turtle
#

NAAWWWW

#

what a flex holymoly shock

#

But like that doesnt mean its needed tho 💔💔

mighty veldt
#

with all that, i kinda dont need to use the newest units, only If they got monarch/other situational good trait

#

like i genuinly only started using Cid after getting Monarch on him

#

otherwise i prob wont ever use him, only for tournaments

flint marten
mighty veldt
dim bear
#

game isnt based on monarchs

#

take katakuri for example

#

having solar on him is better than monarch

flint marten
#

but

#

i have 2300 rrs

#

saved

mighty veldt
#

If you are a true F2P, its understandable

flint marten
#

i js have vip and bp

#

but like i dont buy bundles or rrs or anything

mighty veldt
#

us

dim bear
#

and rarely bundles

#

p2w is for ppl that "whale"

pliant thistle
dim bear
#

like spend huge amount of money or pay their way to win stuff

flint marten
#

i classify bundles as p2w unless it is stricly cosmetic 🤷‍♂️

dim bear
flint marten
#

thats why i buy the bp

pliant thistle
mighty veldt
flint marten
#

for the shiny

mighty veldt
#

lol

pliant thistle
#

which is considered p2w

dim bear
#

as to not recieve backlash from the community

flint marten
pliant thistle
mighty veldt
pliant thistle
flint marten
mighty veldt
#

so my Monarch Gyro Will be boosted

rancid oracle
#

No? How is this trait even p2w
Majority of the best traits on units aren't even nonarch

flint marten
#

like the casual skins i find underwhelming

dim bear
pliant thistle
pliant thistle
#

when devs ask for unit ideas people give names

#

not full unit overviews

dim bear
pliant thistle
#

spot on

dim bear
#

and needs to be reworked to not make them needed

#

but

#

80% of players have atleast a monarch

#

I dont see how they can change something ppl even spent money on

flint marten
#

if i have the rarest trait on my unit why would i rather use a new unit without one 🙏

pliant thistle
#

ive already said that

rancid oracle
flint marten
#

but stand alone why would i rather use a new unit with no trait vs my monarch

pliant thistle
#

thats my point

flint marten
#

thats how it works

dim bear
#

it will fall off in a few updates

#

it cant stay meta forever

rancid oracle
flint marten
#

the rarest thing in the game should not be powercrept by a brand new unit

dim bear
#

so u will be forced to get another one

pliant thistle
flint marten
pliant thistle
#

ur just in a fantasy now

dim bear
#

i have full monarch team

#

i wont be using any guilty gear units unless i get monarch on them

#

but theres no fix to this now

pliant thistle
#

new units just get dumped in the bin unless u get monarch on them or they have a gimmic which makes them better with deadeye or smth

pliant thistle
#

i was just brightening the topic

rancid oracle
#

And reworking ts js gonna annoy many ppl

dim bear
#

ig only solution would be to add more traits that offer a wider range of variety?

#

like not stronger than monarch

#

like how celestial was

#

20% of dmg is converted to true

#

slow stuff

#

etc

pliant thistle
#

just need a bit more strategy with unit building or smth

dim bear
#

to help make units certain passives stronger

flint marten
pliant thistle
#

just add stuff

#

ur smart aren't u bud

dim bear
flint marten
#

they have already confirmed to not be adding any new traits or changing previous ones

dim bear
#

u will just make the basic ones rarer

#

with 1% or less

flint marten
rancid oracle
pliant thistle
dim bear
mighty veldt
pliant thistle
flint marten

#

other than eth

dim bear
#

also more unique units that dont need monarch

#

like how ragna was

mighty veldt
pliant thistle
#

this kris guy actually has a brain

flint marten
#

getting an ethereal feels like getting solar

#

its either deadeye or monarch 🙏

rancid oracle
rancid oracle

dont feel like arguing cus neither of us will change our opinion

pliant thistle
#

idk ur basically speaking against making it more f2p

rancid oracle
pliant thistle
#

yeah

#

fair

mighty veldt
#

Units like Dante and Vergil, with a good familiar can be used with monarch

#

Also Yhwach can be used with mon on inf mode

#

Choy is 1 Monarch and 3 Deadeyes for comp

rancid oracle
remote marsh
#

monarch what

remote marsh
#

never cook again

mighty veldt
mighty veldt
#

i even thinked abt these imagens could help u question helpers

#

abt people always asking for Best trait on X unit

stone oxide
remote marsh
#

we have this already

mighty veldt
remote marsh
#

alu solar, boo monarch

mighty veldt
#

ts is most for Lb application

#

cause no one is using Alucard with Eth since his blees tick got buffed

remote marsh
#

it was made by top players from previous seasons

mighty veldt
#

and Buu can barely get kills for summon with DE

remote marsh
#

early

#

saying buu is better with monarch pureply for summons is something else

mighty veldt

cus u can have 2 goku swaps for cc and a vegito for rupture

like most of DBZ Units would be better with Deadeye if you counting only DPS

like Goku
