I am playing Horizon Zero Dawn and haven’t gotten to the first main event, but it gives me this feeling like if I upgrade all my equipment now it might be for nothing. I know that is not the case, I looked it up, but what are some games that are the worst offenders? One I can think of is Aerith in the original FF7.
Why? Engage Skill nets you 1,000 gold, Adaptable helps you get out of potentially screwing yourself by equipping a certain weapon (not guaranteed of course, but helpful), the Knife skills make him great for Yunaka in particular, has vantage, and can teach a lot of weapon proficiencies. Not the best actual combat unit, but super utilitarian, especially with the gold thing.
Fair points, I’m just asking that the community consensus is that he’s the worst emblem in the game. I kind of think that, too, but I still think he’s okay.
The actual best early game emblem (other than Sigurd) is Micaiah. Augment increase the age of warp/rewarp/rescue staves from 1 tile to 5, which opens up some crazy strategies. You can even warp the user if they’re in the area of affect!
Not a bad emblem, just the weakest relative to the other extremely powerful emblems.
It’s only use is getting Anna to max Luck and converting her to Thief for easier money farming. Which, imo, is really good if you’re doing a slower run or really taking time on hardest difficulty.
In terms of power? Awful lol
Overall I think it’s a good ring as you end up with more rings then you need anyways.
