Total Sadness - Elegaius has left me Heart Broken
Since, October, I have been so excited about Elegaius.
I thought this hero was going to be a game changer for me.
I wrote walls of text on previous threads talking about Elegaius.
I was seeing the versatility.
I was even thinking of the set up I could use him in.
I was so excited to get Elegaius.
I was telling people I know to try to get Elegaius.
I was trying super hard in all the Tournments to win Extra Shards Fragments.
I was 100% committed to making this Champion mine.
- Emotionally
- Spiritually
- Financially
Yesterday, I was able to get this hero.
I was so excited I got Elegaius.
- I completely Booked Elegaius.
- I completely Max Elegaius out.
- I completely Ascended Elegaius.
The gear I put on my Elegaius was 6 Divine Speed Pieces.
I had them all ready to go.
I pre-upgraded all the gear in anticpation of Elegaius wear it.
If you want to call me a Whale, Its completely fine.
I am guilty of spending money, but here is the interesting part.
I followed through with what I said on the previous thread.
I made my Arena Team:
I put Elegaius in Apothecary spot like I had plan all along.
- I haven't pulled a Siphi.
- I haven't pulled a Lyssandra.
I was using Apothecary till I pull 1 of the above heroes or get another option.
Elegaius comes along with his Decrease Enemy Turn Meter.
Elegaius is almost like a Psylar.
Psylar decreases more enemy turn meter, but doesn't remove enemy buffs.
Elegaius decrease less enemy turn meter, but does remove enemy buffs.
There is a trade off between the different heroes.
I was completely pumped.
Than let me tell you what happened next!
- My Arbiter was able to go first in the fight
- My Arbiter did Turn Meter Filling
- My Elegaius is speed tune to go second in the fight
- My Elegaius rans up to 1 enemy and reduced their cool down?
This picture really captures the emotion which just transpired in this Arena Battle.
I would like to think I am a very logical, sensible person.
I look at Elegaius moves.
Elegaius has 3 active moves + 1 passive move.
Elegaius A1 = Single Target
Elegaius A2 = Single Target
Elegaius A3 = AOE
The skills which have a cool down.
Elegaius A2 = 3 turns fully booked
Elegaius A3 = 4 turns fully booked
It never crossed my mind that this champion would prioritiize any other move over the A3.
The game made the AI prioritize the A2 move.
The A3 move is the only AOE the heroes has on the longest cool down which reduces enemy turn meter.
And Elegaius doesn't do it?
No words to describe the total sadness of the situation.
