Yeah_No Posted December 1, 2024 Share Posted December 1, 2024 In a previous post I made, I said that I didn't like gestalt Abby's attack rate - 5 seconds was too much for her to be good for stuff where hundreds of damage was excessive, which is most things that aren't bosses. When I made that post, the dash command was just that - a dash. She didn't do any AoE damage, and was kinda slow to attack after finishing said dash. I found it kind of useless back then, though I still enjoyed trying to use it. The addition of AoE damage to the dash command has solved both of those problems I had. Not only is the dash command quite useful, it also improves upon the parts where Goopigail falls. First of all: It Gives Goopigail AoE. Something she did not have before. This made her vex hardly existent (especially with the 5 second cooldown), but now we have a way to apply vex and do some AoE damage aswell. It still uses regular Abigail damage, rather than Gestalt, but I'd rather that than it simply not work. 400 damage AoE is excessive. Secondly: It Fills In The Attack Downtime. Gestalt Abigail attacking once every 5 seconds meant she kinda just sat there, trying to kite and not doing much at all until she could attack again. Now, you can make her dash during that downtime for a bit of extra damage or crowd control, aswell as applying vex. Which brings me to the third point. Finally: Using Goopigail + Dash is plain fun. That's basically it. I had a blast mowing down spiders constantly to fuel my Wortox friend's soul jars, even though with regular Abigail that'd involve hitting one button and just waiting for her to finish. Is it inefficient? Kinda. But it's a lot of fun. It makes the experience of using Abigail a lot more interactive - making her dash when you can while she occasionally did a 400 damage bomb to 1 or 2 spiders (since her dash has very small AoE now I think) was a lot of fun. This is basically all to say that... I'm satisfied! And very happy! Playing Wendy with goopigail is a lot of fun now, and the only thing I want back for the skilltree is petal purification (so the dark flowers growing from graves gives more petals for sisturn or beautifying graves). Otherwise? Very fun. I'd recommend people to try this out. Gestalt Abigail with the Dash Command can be a very fun time, and I can't wait to try it with Bee Queen or Fuelweaver.
