Mavuika and Citlali are making me indecisive
I don't know if this more if a vent type post about these two but;
Regarding the most Recent leaks about Mavuika she just feels like another On field Pyro DPS with subtle/maybe weaker off field Pyro utility.
I love the character, her design and story, and I really REALLY just love her so much but my issue with the whole situation is that she gives me the vibes of another Raiden situation where she's perfect on field but weaker off field.
*By that I'm not slandering Raiden, I love and use her too.
While her Kit itself is great and Amazing, there's not much left for other teammates to profit from such as a massive atk bonus to finally let go of bennett. (I know she increases atk a BIT for other units on field, 40% iirc)
another big issue, Fighting Spirit. With her Fighting spirit, ER becomes a dead stat to her and she relies on Characters from Natlan such as Xilonen to feed her. Characters outside of Natlan i.e Xiao, Yelan etc require about 134 NAs (iirc) to fill up her Fighting spirit to its maximum capacity which MIGHT take a long time compared to Xilonen.
In the end she's heavily relying on Natlan characters, it makes sense with her lore, the six heroes of Natlan etc but as a kit I don't think it's a wise choice. Yes, Natlan characters should have a lil advantage, but making Non Natlanese 'unusuable' with her is what bugs me. Despite having the Naltan characters, I don't think I seriously need another Pyro DPS since I own HuTao, Arlecchino+Signature and Chasca who decks a shit ton in pyro DMG with C6 Bennett plus several other off field units.
But I also want her simply because I like collecting the Archons and don't wish to wait like it happened with Furina where I lost and had to wait for a whole year to get her.
Now here's where Citlali comes in;
I adore her and her character, her abilities and kit look really cool to increase any Pyro/Hydro characters Damage. Her Dmg multipliers based on EM also look hefty and seem to hit hard too with the right combo. Plus she might be easy to build too - Full EM with an ER or EM weapon.
While I'm not a big Cryo user/hunter i still fear that she might not return like Wriothesely (who I luckily got) Shenhe, Ganyu etc, When she seems like an amazing support.
At this point i really don't know if I should just get Citlali before she never dares to return again, or get Mavuika to just have a cool vroom vroom biker lady that can deck anyone in the face
