IS WIXWELL REALLY THAT BAD?! | Raid: Shadow Legends

Ойындар

Vault Keeper Wixwell is the first community generated fusion champion in Raid History. With all this exclusivity and choice - we should be hyped to get this champion from the fusion. The feedback and community sentiment however seems to be quite negative towards Wixwell. The real question we always ask - Is this Fusion worth doing? In this video, I try to give you my thoughts and why he may not be as bad as you think.

    For me it has nothing to do with how good he is but how much Raid has been changing their fusions to take more resources. In his case part of why I jsut don't really care to get him is that they made it 1 rare and it is a void. Add that to other things they have changed over time and I just don't care as much to put in the effort.

    I don't think he's a bad champ. He is very solid and I'm going for him on both my main and my alt account. One major issue about Wixwell, is that his provoke is not aoe. This means he's not reliable as a provoker in hydra unless you manual it. The reason why auto hydra teams are the most popular teams outside those few bonkers Trunda/Gharol teams is because few outside those top clans are interested in sitting down for an hour or two to do a run. Auto teams are what the majority want. Moreover, you could be well towards that hour when something goes terribly wrong and you have to redo it. So no auto = so what to the largest portion of the community. This will inevitably bring some negativity by itself but there is more to it than that. He was also touted as a "Must do" Can't skip" and even "Better than Gnut" before the ink was dry on the paper as to his kit. That is a massive reason why the community had a negative reaction to him, at least around my friends who play it was. That is fomo creating weeks before the fusion started and we are sick of Paylarium's fomo and we definitely don't want CC's pushing it down our throats either. Those who have access, should reserve these statements until they have TESTED the champ then give their expert/experienced opinion as to if it's a "Can't skip" "Must do" "Better than Gnut" champ. Before that, say what you think by what you read on paper, but how many times have paper champs that look amazing on said paper turned into wet noodle champs in reality. Think before you speak, we want real and accurate information, not sensationalised over hyped up speculation from those we trust to give us the best advice on champs that they can get their hands on before the general player base spends it's time and resources getting it. I'm not saying this to have a go at CC's. I'm saying what I hear and say myself in conversations, that CC's are either hyping a champ or dogging it BRFORE the play test and then trying to fit their pre-test thoughts into matching the reality. Looking for it to be bad and ignoring what is good and vis versa. Professionals need to be objective, and what is coming across more and more is subjective bias one way or the other and that will eventually blow back on those who push it at us. It's not my thoughts alone on the matter, it's a consensus of those I speak with mainly, some have other reasons but this is the most common impression we have amongst my circle. Ultimately, we are friends because we are, or have similar interests and so it may be that different individuals and circles of friends think/feel differently, but it's a warning from one that will take the time to tell you what's going on in my part of the community, and you ask why. btw. I personally did not regret not getting Morgaine, so many other options it's, ok, she would have made it easier in that one rotation, but done it in another way regardless, so no real loss and no fomo about any fusion champ now, or in the future... because?... It's a game!

    I like the break down you give. I do not care that CC overhype or undersell champs I just think it is also important to play Devil's advocate. I have taken that approach with this champion. My feeling on him are really how I feel but most of the time I just let it be and roll with whatever happens however this time I decided to be vocal and the initial pushback I got made me more confident in my convictions because all the reasonings given for him being great, I could easily pick apart. The one place I completely have not pushed back on is his viability in a manual run of Hydra. If you like to manual Hydra he is one of the best champions in the game. If you like to play the game on auto, which most are only willing to do this, then he loses so much value in hydra. He is technically the best provoker for hydra of any champion in the game on manual but we have to think in the lens of the majority imo. Especially when giving opinions on champions that might drain all of someone's resources. People look at the videos to decide if they want them and only highlighting the good can hurt when someone is not experienced or not super technical with the game and its mechanics.

    @@BubbaBasher02 I totally agree that if you like to play hydra manually, then there is probably no better provoker in the game, except maybe The Archer, but few actually have her. I'm one of the lucky ones that do and she has never failed me. But then, I can auto with her too. I feel, as do many of my Raid mates that many CC's have gone too far down the road to sensationism instead of clear headed advice without personal bias after a readthrough of a kit. Sure, you can have an opening opinion/theory just from what you see on paper, but the point of doing something professionally, and doing this as a full time job that you earn your living from is just that, then you must do so without bias especially when your advice is what many people are listening to, to make their informed decisions about spending their resources or not. It's fine that you have no problem with the hyping, under selling, but I would say that it does play into how they then test and report the champ. Be consistent, and have the same test areas, which many do, and use set equipment of each type that you place on the champs to get a direct comparison from champ to champ, which rarely, if ever happens. Run a set amount of runs each time and In that way, you have a straight line where you can measure one champ of each type against another and then you can say this is the chart and this champ sits here on it. Unfortunately, this does not happen, and so we never really know how they measure up against each other. That's my opinion, and how I would set up my test program, but then I have a science background, and testing should have a consistent measurable baseline source as far as I'm concerned lol. Ofc, some measure of RNG is there too but you have a closer proximity to the actual skills in play. testing in arena is much harder ofc, as you cannot have the same team in the same gear every time you test but for PvE this would work. That is one way to play Devil's Advocate, because you can have a theory/belief about a champ but the testing will show you whether you were right or wrong, and you can give clear advice based on the real results. That is what then determines your decision as a player to do/not do the fusion. As for this champ, I'm going for him on both accounts for different reasons. For my alt f2p account, I think he will boost my CB team by protecting my stun target (killable team). On my main, I think he'll be a great use for Amius to protect my cleanser/reviver from the stun. It won't stop the sleep as it can't be blocked, or resisted by any means. But it could potentially be a massive help there. I could be wrong about that, and simply have a Vault dwelling, Vault keeper lol.

What bothers me is how the intercept is going to work... is it going to be enough to reliably keep fear off my team, because then I can replace shamael. What if I do run a shamael. Will the turn meter increase be gone because the fear gets intercepted before the pasive triggers, or does the pasive work first?

    I don't think it's a bug. It appears to grow as a percentage of the shield value when the growth occurs. That's exponential scaling. So if they were to make the multiplier big enough to be significant at low shield values, it would quickly get out of hand in an infinity comp. It's currently still possible to get to massive shields with him, it just takes longer to ramp up than Brogni and probably requires more mitigation to allow Wixwell to outgrow the incoming damage. Running them together would allow Wixwell to outgrow Brogni sooner. So they've essentially made it useless for normal teams because they chose to make it scale exponentially if the shield isn't falling off or being damaged too much. If they made the growth scale based on Wixwell's defense, they wouldn't have to worry about this. AFAIK they've never made a change like that to buff a fusion after the event has begun.

An A1 with aoe low chance of decrease speed will be nice. This will help people struggling with hydra while it may not be breaking any damage records.

Cadaver got "patched" despite needing a fortune for the team to be put together and specific champs as well, no exploits involved. To sum it up, whichever CC applies more leverage and/or pressure to get whatever's beating their clan or node nerfed, might get away with it. I've seen some arguments not even seasoned lawyers could've come up with in order to get stuff out of their way. So yeah, sometimes they make it, sometimes they have to adapt or use the same strat.

About hydra - with the epic emp, one of the champs that will see a lot of play will be Whisper, and she has self-buff which means she cannot be in the same team with this guy IF you want to use him as mischief tank. The same goes for any other self-buff champion who is good in Hydra. And for any end-game account, he is definitely not a champ that you build a team around.

Provoke (esp on a single target A1) is solid for Hydra and Magma dragon(does this content even matter anymore?), but rather inflexible. His A2 is solid too, Dec Atk + Increase Buff Duration makes him usable in Hydra for a strong defense option especially combined with a veil champion. His A3 seems interesting and I would need to test it more to really give it a fair value. Along with his passive he has some uses. I would say he gets a strong "Go for it" rating for anyone early game or who is struggling with what he brings in Hydra, especially if they are struggling with torment. For an end game player such as myself and my clan mates, He is just average. If I am comparing him to other provokers who bring and extend buffs (ex. Krisk/Graazur) He falls short. That unfortunately also means his lifespan in the game is limited unless they release more content which makes his intercept necessary. 3.5 stars seems fair to me. I think a lot of the push back is because of the overrating of unique champions and fusions, especially as more of the community shifts to late game. Before his abilities were even chosen content creators where saying he is a must get fusion for all players. Some going so far as to say best fusion ever. Bad takes like this harm CC reputation as a whole, even if CCs like you have level-minded takes.

    I don't listen to a single thing anyone online has to say about champs. I judge it on my own, and most champs I have picked up and built, I have found a use for and had fun doing it. Every single time one of these fusions drops, you will find 100 weasels coming out of the woodwork screaming about how bad it is, an how people shouldn't do it. Then every single time I've done it, I haven't regretted it like they said I would. You just really have to stop listening to rando's online. Look at the champ yourself. Read it's power set. Its not that it has value to some stranger on the web, it's whether it has value to your account. The 'vocal' opinions online tend to be more elitist than not.... if it's not the absolute top tier endgame champ that Plat players use, then they consider it utter crap. Stop listening to these fools and use your own brain to determine its value for you.

  • @iamhungry4000

    For me it's like what others have said. It's not Wixwell himself, it's the things surrounding him. The resources need and points needed are ridiculous, I'd expect this for a mythical, not a lego. We also haven't had a break from these events since Rathalos and the Blademasters appeared. Think about that and how resource draining it is to do events for months on end. They need to give players a break, a month of events, two weeks to get champ, two weeks to get stars, then a month off so we can build resources. As it is now the fatigue is just unreal and it's sucking the fun out of the game. Also, with so many fusions etc, and the champ training that comes with them, I now have about 6 rank 6 champs that are around level 52, with ZERO scrolls because I need to spend all my time doing these time limited champ collection events, effectively making them useless. Give us a month to reap what we sow and get those champs through mino to level 60 and scrolled. Basically, we all need a break. I think this is how events have gone: Blademasters>Armanz>Adelyn>Wixwell. Assuming a month for each champ that's four months where people haven't had time to just have a break, recuperate, gather resources, max the characters we worked hard to get, and just enjoy the game. Also it wouldn't be so bad if they introduced a new kind of event where we get points for earning scrolls and unlocking masteries. At least then it would be incorporated, and they could do these events between major character events. But yeah, mostly we need a break between events. It isn't actually Wixwell (although that provoke on a lego absolutely SHOULD be AoE NOT single target). Good vid Saph. EDIT: Also Saph, due to the resources constantly needed in these events, I don't have enough to experiment with different teams in certain areas such as Sand Devil or Iron Twins. It all costs energy but all the energy is going to these events.

I think the choose-your-own idea would have gone differently if Plarium had said, “Defense is new ability, Offense will have good multipliers, Support will synergize or whatever.” I think he’s a solid champ that will help me even in endgame for Hydra and SilverSuckCity. I was luckily able to skip all Mikage events and Eostrid’s souls. Hoarding through those make Wix easy for me. I also have to do his events kinda. I e hoarded so many champs/gear that I need room badly.

    So, I'm going for him in the hopes of him getting buffed, but as to why I have issues with him at the moment and considered a hard pass, and based on what you think is good - 'One of the best provokers in the game' - It takes time - but you can get Drexthar for way less hassle who has a 60% chance AoE provoke, 100% if the target is under HP burn, on a 3 turn CD. Not against bosses - everyone. Oh, and his A1 does HP burn on a 3 hit, and his passive when he gets hit has a 75% chance to place it if you didn't bring another HP burn champ. Visix - 3 turn CD on a 100% provoke with no affinity problems - given to you after signing in x number of days. Toragi - an epic so easier to book, get 10 buffs out on the enemy team/heads - 100% chance on a 3 turn CD, with other epics like Prundar or the insanely useful Vogoth having 75% AoE's. Instead of waiting for A1 hits on waves for a chance to provoke, or to hit the bosses with an A1 (possibly cause you got hit) with 100%. Cause as I recall - the one head you can provoke only attacks when it can't heal, and isn't it one of the few that's a single target attack? Meaning you'd need it to want to attack Wixwell for his CA to mean anything in trying to provoke it? 'increase buff duration' - half a dozen non-void epics do that (another 2 voids do it as well) and Valerie, a rare I'm 90% sure you can farm to not even waste rare books on for a 3 turn buff extender if you don't have any of the epics or other legendries that can do it. 'Decrease ATK' - Dark Kael does AoE decrease ATK, lots of champions do Decrease ATK on AoE these days. Many of which have been free/login champs (UDK and Artak) or you eventually get through other means (Dark Kael). 'Increase Defense' - again, lots of champs have that these days - including even rare champions. 'Shield' - yes - a shield that in most videos looks absolutely pathetic compared to Helicath, Valk, or UDK's, which might not be so bad if every video didn't also show his shield growth being garbage. But once again - a lot of champions do AoE shields. Other than the shield growth and provoke - I can effectively replicate his entire kit with 1 epic you get from DT and a couple rares - leaving 2 spots in normal content and 3 in Hydra for whatever other champions - which can cover anything else - and those 3 initial champions bring far more utility, for far less hassle, and way less resources in terms of trying to get books and all. Intercept in theory sounds great - but so far seems less practical than just having a block Debuffs champ/champs that block all debuffs - not just CC ones. The one thing that truly would have made him a legendary people would be fighting for was if his shield grow made him similar to Brogni with a different affinity - but so far that hasn't happened. Which if using his A3, where intercept is, cancels out any shield growth especially if they fix his - well that means it's useless anyway and your bringing a block debuffs anyway. Plarium did a horrible job designing and implementing his kit. And before I see anyone replying 'well we voted on it' - the designs were botched before we ever voted on it, and the multipliers and chances honestly so far seem to suck in videos I've seen. Forget about future content likely relying on Intercept - he's a prototype champion, so odds are by then we'll have epics or other legendary champs that do it, and possibly full team from the start, also means he should have been easier to get but Plariums staff on that department not always the sharpest tools in the shed, his kit and all as it stands is at best mediocre - for a legendary champ, on a harder style fusion, meant to be capping off 'community weeks' - which is more like flipping off the community, especially with the free login champ not exactly being great either and things like limiting both the time to get the extra rewards and how many points per day you can get towards them. Yes - he's one champion that does all those things - but he doesn't really do them that well, and really only shines a bit in 1 piece of content and even that is debatable, where as bringing in a couple champs - you can do all the same but better in the same content. He seems more like a glorified epic, that's my issue with him. They change his shield extend - auto fixes that for me if he becomes an alternate to Brogni, but as is - where the only time I've seen him make decent shields is still Hydra but in a reflex set, it's hard to say he's actually worth it.

    Wixwell is good. The bigger problem has become that raid no longer works with fine/good champs. *Raid is now a game of extremes.* Plarium has chosen the path of not nerfing champions so the only way to make somethiny shiny is too make them overpowered.(newer mythicals, armanz etc.) Instead of shuffling things up. So you require extremes to beat extremes. This falls under polymorph crap too. Polymorph is being pushed cause down the line they gonna sell us Master Seal debuff and counter it. Why would i want a good provoker in hydra that deals basically no damage? We have champs that can do damage and provoke. With things like area bonuses, empowerment, ascension. Survivability starts mattering less. Wixwell fits most under the group of beginning mid-inching late game. He's much like Androc mythical. Midgame, he's absolute GODTIER champ. Endgame, completely irrelevant. He's too balanced so he doesnt fit anywhere.

    Hey Seph, have you seen this video? link is down below my comment. Wixwell can be used in a strategy with Yannica for ultra-Hydra damage. 900 million in one hit in this video and there can be more..... Obviously, most Players who call Wixwell the worst fusion ever don't have any fantasy or imagination. Maybe we are too comfortable now, after we saw the absolute OP and boring Armanz, who can clear most of the content by himself. Sorry, but for the sake of this game and all players who will start AFTER Armanz could be fused, he should be balanced..... But I DO like champs like Wixwell, who can fill two or more roles in 1 team and has a wide way to be strategically used in many teams or content. With the faultless defense blessing, his counter attack and his 2 hit A1, he can be a very good choice for Fireknight hard. Just think of it, with shield and increase DEF, your team should survive the Fireknights first attack AND THEN he reduces the Fireknights shield instantly by 7 stacks, every time the Fireknight smacks! He even has decrease attack which adds to wholy protect your team from being killed. Fireknight hard is one of the hardest content, which many players have problems with. Wixwell could help SO many players....... And i have seen a video too, where Wixwell completely protects your whole team against beeing Stunned by the Demonlord over time. So even here is a role to fill. Most part for early-, mid-, and lategame players for their progression, but with yannica together even in the endgame for killin' those nasty Hydra heads ^^. Just imagine if his passive woult be the "increase damage with poison debuffs", that would be monstrous!
