The First Descendant has a substantial amount of enchantment, which is due largely to its engaging Descendants and their Expertise. Of these, Valby instantly caught my consideration as a result of I’m a free spirit who longs to be in a New England cottage by the ocean. That, and he or she’s a water bender who can rule the battlefield like Poseidon angered by vacationers urinating within the shallows. What follows is the very best all-around construct for tackling mobs and Colossi alike.

Stream like water

Valby is exclusive in her preventing type. She’s a combination of DPS, add-clear, and help. Her Expertise coat the ground like a sloppy janitor with a DoT. This standing water primes her different talents by reducing MP value when standing in it. Coupled with an Final that sucks every enemy troubled by the DoT right into a suffocating bubble and Valby, like Cheddar Bay Biscuits, is a superb addition to any setting.

Cleanup: Valby adopts the form of water and glides alongside the bottom, leaving a wake of damaging water. Whereas on this state, Valby can’t use weapons or abilities and can’t soar. The tradeoff is properly price it as Valby lays down a big kill area, is basically invulnerable, and is the second quickest Descendant within the sport. Cleanup is a good way to get mobs below management, get away from an aggressive boss, and revive downed allies.

Laundry Bomb: Valby pulls out a launcher and may hearth off three water bombs. Upon affect, these bombs create massive bubbles which ensnare foes and deal DoT. When utilized by itself, Laundry Bomb is all however nugatory. It’s onerous to intention, doesn’t do a whole lot of harm, and is useles in opposition to bosses. Nevertheless, when used on a pack of enemies already troubled by Laundry, this Final will yank every one among them right into a tiny bubble. Combo that with a weapon like Thunder Cage and never a lot is standing in your means, you sassy electrical eel.
