Got stuns, got back row attacks, got ways to reposition in case of shuffle. So say for Ruins I run Vestal/Crusader/Shieldbreaker/MaA. I also came to learn that stuns are very very important. I prefer aggro comps that can hit at any position and move around. I'd start by reviewing the comps you're building around them, because while I must repeat that I do not find them that bad in combat, you still do need to account for the fact that one slot is being taken by a hero that is designed to not be as strong as the rest, so if the 'rest' suck, she's going to suck more. It's not difficult to complete dungeons of any difficulty while using them. I stack Antiquarians quite regularly and use them very frequently, beit for gold or just for fun.

In short, she's not there to win you a DPS or Sustain race, but if you're struggling to get one to level 6 then we'll definitely have to review how you're playing them (or who you're playing them with). She can de-stealth, which isn't vital but still handy, and happens to be quite speedy, plus various other quirks - but primarily, she is your go-to for phat lewt and that is the way it is. Her blight may not be the most potent, but it can hit any rank and also debuffs blight-resistance. With specific trinkets, you can make her healing comparible to an ARB/MUS bandage, which isn't bad, and it also provides DoT resistances. If you, like me, can't stand the idea of dodge-comps, then there are other worthwhile strategies you can use, such as a basic ProtMe-Riposte comp.Īnother thing you need to be aware of is that despite her lack of potency, almost everything she does provides mini-buffs.

I believe the highest-scoring endless run (before the changes) was Ant-Ant-Maa-Maa with thousands of kills. I loathe dodge-comps, yet she's very popular in them.

But seriously, she's not as bad as you might think despite Red Hook's intention of having her be a poor combatant.
