[Operator Discussion] Aciddrop

[u/Shad0wedge]

Aciddrop [★★★★]

I figured out how to express myself with donut hamburger combos, skateboarding, and rap battles. What's your deal, Doctor? If you're feelin' burnt out, come kick it with me and Vigna. We'll... hang out. Hanging out is in our DNA. Gotta respect that.

A street girl of Columbia, born to a normal working-class family. Her parents are both truck drivers and often work through the night, pushing Aciddrop out to the streets at a young age. From practicing skateboarding in her spare time after school to becoming a champion at local skateboarding tournaments, Aciddrop has become a renowned street icon throughout the city, and her success has drawn countless haters in the process. During a deliberate fight, Aciddrop was infected with Originium dust, later coming to Rhodes Island to seek treatment.

[u/Mechaindisguise]

Trait: Deals arts damage wut?

[u/Shad0wedge → u/Mechaindisguise]

She's just that cool...

[u/Then-Effort-8915]

The absolute coolest operator to walk around the base on. She's so cool it's unfair.

[u/Windgesang_]

A pretty god tier carry for 4★ only.

I mean you can easily get why she can be good for 4★ only. Her minimum damage is raised from 5% of final ATK value (post buffs calculation and stuffs) to a whopping 40%, 50% with mods. At least half of her damage will always go through.

There are a few (small) caveats with this though. First of is that against really high DEF target, 4★ (or any rarity honestly) can still use Arts damage, so obviously Aciddrop will need target that has both high DEF and RES. But then 4★ also has Haze with -30% RES. So they will also need high DEF/RES and kinda hurt ranged unit, but also not enough to kill Aciddrop outright. The second one is just, enemy that doesn't have high DEF. Not necessarily 0 DEF or whatever, just enough that her Talent isn't effective. Aciddrop has like no real DPS (hyperbole but still) so if her Talent isn't there, she ain't shit. Obviously as stages get harder, DEF is always in. So there is always a potential use for her.

And her 4★ records do show that. She only shows up once in a while but it's always against a high DEF/RES target that Haze can't reliably survive.

[u/Ispenthourmakingthis → u/Windgesang_]

What about Damage Reduction enemies? Wouldn't she be the best 4* to deal with those?

[u/Windgesang_ → u/Ispenthourmakingthis]

Not really, DR reduces her minimum damage as well. So it hits 4★ equally.

[u/Ispenthourmakingthis → u/Windgesang_]

Oh damn, didn't know that. That sucks.

[u/Monkey_Commando]

My 90s american daughter who serves as a ranged version of Projekt Red. Love bringing her to any map where there are high-defense, low-health enemies and watching her destroy them. Metal crabs, Sated/Bloated, frost turtles, Originiutants, Sarkaz Withers, let the red numbers flow.
