I thought Flametail would be a possible replacement for Texas S2 but taking a proper look at the details, Flametail's shorter stun is a deal breaker. Unfortunate because I thought she could replace Texas if/when Texas gets an alter in the future and I can no longer bring the original when I deploy the alter.

She may not have the higher stun but overall she's a better lane holder with her crazy dodge, nice that she can give some of it to others too. Also if you have Aak E2, she can dodge his damage and still get buffed and it makes her atk speed insane which combos with her talent to double strike after dodging.

Flametail is way more durable than Texas, you probably shouldn't compare them 1 to 1. Less stun, but the dodge adds a lot of survivability and she's overall tankier than Texas even without the dodge. She will be doing some decent damage while holding a lane

My antithesis would be that, her s2 isn't even her best skill. You're not looking at the whole picture.
Once I get Nearl Alter in the upcoming Banner, imma stop pulling. If I get Flametail ok if I dont ok. I already have 2 build pioneer 6 star operator and I love Siege and Saga very much so I'm not particularly interested in getting Flametail but knowing Hypergryph, they'll give me 2 or 3 Flametails and an off banner 6* before I get Nearl Alter. Anyways goodluck to all of us. May we get our waifus and husbandos.

Its a big YES because of Aya Hirano! Any character voiced by her is a must get.
Can I just say dude thank you so much for the amazing videos that you make, you put so much research and effort into these and it’s so appreciated by me & I’m sure so many others in the community!
I have been wanting her since she showed up the first time in the Blemishine event. My only complain from her skill set is just her S3 should last a little longer, but overall, I think she is solid! I can't wait for this event, I am so excited to get Nearl and Flametail and use them right away
The first Vanguard who I can see tanking Patriot Phase 1 and not dying while soloing him
I'm pretty sure this is the first clear MAYBE on the series. Good on you and keep the great work.
good for CC, her S3 makes her a pseudo defender (Block 3) - especially for those stages with dog rush
Wow FrostByte262 first time I heard you said maybe!
I already have Saga and Saileach build properly so I probably won't build her even though she already p5, but I don't regret watching this for the ending because the ending really gets me 😂 Thanks a lot for these video!
the Ultra Instinct vibes she has on the skills sold me, after about 4/5 months of gathering dust tsukinogi is now built
I am wondering, when invitation to wine comes Lee. What happens if you stack her skill 2 with Lee's absurd dodge capabilities? It sounds stupidly good but I'd doubt meta defining.
She's not my main focus, but i would gladly pull for her. Her voice makes her pretty cute
Overall she's a good lane holder. With her crazy dodge, and its nice that she can give some of it to other ops too. *PSA*: If you have Aak E2, she can dodge his damage and still get buffed. It makes her atk speed insane which combos with her talent to double strike after dodging. Basically with Aak she's a blender. Here's an example kzread.info/dash/bejne/eXxq09GugbLJhc4.html With her s2 shes a support version of Texas. Less stun but, more dmg and the added benefit of giving dodge to other ops. A little more niche but not bad.

thats enough copium bro. No ones gonna use texas or flametail as a laneholder. Even if youre playing with vanguardnights, Bagpipe would still be a better choice. Also, tha aak combo youre talking about is just for memes and not practical at all.

@@yuuka2298 its not copium but I appreciate the small amounts of disrespect you decided to sprinkle in your response. I never said Flametail is the best option. I'm just explaining that Flametail has uses and combos that I felt like pointing out. Overall Texas s2 will be considered better because the Stun is longer, but giving everyone dodge could be a niche use someone would want to make use of. And as far as her s3, no Bagpipe isnt comparable. Flametail s3 isnt pure damage, its also survivability. I could put Flametail in a lane by herself and with her s3 she would survive better or possibly longer than Bagpipe because all she gets effectively is a damage boost. Yes both of them get increased block count, but as a Pioneer she beats Bagpipe in that regard anyway. And tbh most things people use Aak for are for memes anyway, but turning a laneholder into a blender is a valid strat, especially considering shes one of the few ops who wouldnt take the full damage from his buff, so you wouldnt need to bring Shining or someone else just to protect/heal her. And her s2 dodge could be used to help other ops dodge Aaks damage from his buff as well. In the end it doesnt matter either way, the meta is bagpipe and flag bearers. Anyone doing anything different will probably be using Saga (like I am). And if they don't have those options or dont want to then theyll use either Flametail or Siege depending.

@@tigerfalco For clarity, Bagpipe S3L7 gives her +90% DEF for the duration alongside attacking three times at once. You could say that her LBB is also a survivability skill because of this, but Flametail has so much more opportunities to use her S3 compared to Bagpipe's S3 just because of the sheer lower DP cost overall and the fact that she has an 80% chance to null all kinds of damage. Either way, they both have different roles to fulfill. People can use what they want, honestly. A lot of people just love dissing what isn't the top meta.

Just like everyone Nearl is my top priority cause of the bond I found when I joined the game. She was my most wanted defender, and now when she's stronger, she's a must get for me. But after reading the Maria Nearl story and Pinus Sylvestris stories, I have taken a liking to “Flametail” Sona too. Honestly if she's comes alongside Nearl I would consider myself very lucky. But am not gonna try getting her after I get Nearl. Might try a few pull, but not much since Bing chil-Ling is close too.
Someone did a video on what happens If you pair her with Aak and Warfarin which results her becoming a red hurricane of a thousand slashes.

@@darkomega6597 Siege+Texas is a good combo. Texas gets more damage from being deployed alongside Siege so its compensated to an extent, but the closest you have to Texas is Flame because of her S2, despite the lower stun time, but I'd say she's more flexible in case you want her to fill in Texas' shoes or if you want an independent lane holder that has good survivability.
She just got significantly better with addition of Mlynar (she reflects dmg now) and Stainless (s2 SP generation makes her spam s3)
She is coming back and I'm getting her this time for the dodging buff I can apply on my NTR, wish everyone who wish to obtian this smol squirrel knight a very pleasant afternoon and may the RNGod be on your side
If I get her, then I'll probably raise her for my Vanguard only team. But otherwise, not really aiming for her. She's a bonus for getting ntr knight
I'd totally get for her. I tried her in CN serv. (friend account) and she is fun to play with dodging mechanics. Her performance maybe hard to use. But if you use correctly she can be very fun to play with. Especially in IS#2.

i will pull just until some 6* come out, since i'm reserving my draws for Ling and Gnosis(supporter knights for the life) between NTR and Flametail, i prefer the second for waifu and design purposes
i'm absolutely obsessed with using her rn just the prospect of a tiny operator dodging some few nuclear hits is enough to satisfy my dumb brain
Gonna complete the Pinus Sylvestris Knight Club, so yeahhhhh boiiss
Definetly a get and build for me
I already got her in my second draw at the mountain banner idk if she was good so I was looking for a video if she's good or not
Since I'll use her s3 more than s2 I'll be having my fun with that
Can her s1 dodge the golem punches of doom? If so, might be another permastall option then, if combined with certain other ops, for the few times that they appear. (Which, as it turns out, they'll be a lot more relevant in the coming 10 weeks.)

I'm still ganna pull her cuz I like her design and voice

I just got her so I came to learn about her.
I’m going to get her because I want to have every character in the game.

Can I be here because she was the beginning banner? Because I got her
"Unlike her first skill the average DP generation (skill 3) is considered better". Because 0.33 DP/s with a 8 second ICD is somehow worse than 0.33 DP/s with a 9 second ICD. Also for those curious skill 2 is 0.325 DP/s with a 10 second ICD. All her skills are about the same, a rounding error in DP gen if your not hovering over her to fire off skills. Not sure if there is something weird going on but it seems a lot of people are saying (some) of Flametail's skills have bad DP gen. Not sure what they are comparing it to other than Myrtle to get that idea. Her DP/s is about par for the course compared to other 5/6* Pioneer Vanguards (0.33 DP/s with skill 1s, slightly worse with skill 2s). Siege/Saga CAN have better DP/s with their skill 2s but that requires Saga getting execution(s) or Siege having multiple deaths beside her per skill activation.
If I get her I get her, otherwise I wouldn’t really upgrade her since I had Dual Flag bearer. And saga too but nah.
She can be a great dodge tank for Patriot with skill 1

got her on the free ten pull along with w in the same pull lmao
She is my main focus! Nearlter i rly dont care about... the only reason why im trying to get nearlter is bc she is kinda needed in cc8 max risk. But other than that Flametail beats nearlter designwise!
Haha yeah, defo not building her if I get her, unfortunately (same with fartooth). She has some niche that you usually won't use a vanguard for and of course are easily replaceable with other ops.
