Does Guillotine 2099 have any uses now that she’s not the abyss god everyone hoped she would be

I currently have guilly 2099 at R4 and was waiting for abyss to be released to see if I rank her up but now that she’s no good for abyss and don’t have really any use for her. Unless future nodes require her she will stay as is

Thoughts from anyone else who maybe pre abyss 5/65 her?

I pre-abyss ranked her without considering abyss. I figured they would do something to hamper SL-style champs that have to get ramped up. As soon as you heard she didnt carry her combo over easily, it shouldnt have been in consideration unless you have all other content complete and you're just ranking for abyss. and if that is the case, you'll get the materials back soon to rank someone else.

She is my favorite havok counter currently because I dont have many others that deal high damage.

I have a 6* rank 2 (1 t4cc away from R3) Warlock so he counters plenty lol but I just find she looses combo way to easy and has the smallest health pool. Yes I already have everything in the game finished. Just need 100% abyss, 6.2/6.3 and I’m done but I don’t find her useful right now and was wondering other people’s thoughts, she seemed way too hyped up at first and now I hear nothing lol

mines 5* r5. and honestly, I would probably rank her again. At this stage, if its not t5cc, youll get the materials back eventually. so if thats the case, the question has to be what other champs would you rank above her? As far as tech goes, I dont know if anyone ever advertised her over warlock or ghost.

also, just a side note: loses combo way too easily? she has a combo shield which 99% of characters dont have. and she can stack them.

She is great. Completely counters rage node and similar nodes, has DoT that no one is immune to, doesn’t crit unless you want her to, Havok counter, double immune, power burn that allows you to ignore cornered nodes (provided you can dex whoever’s L2), regen and power control.

Sure, there are plenty who can do one or three of her abilities better, but G2099 can do whatever you need her to do. Not many bad matchups tbh. Her block prof and regen are trash tho. It’s best to parry at the start for your combo shields, then never again if you can help it

Edit: @KILLMФИGЕЯ her heavies give her a combo shield stack. Each heavy gives one, up to 2 plus 2 more for each prefight you don’t use (so max 6 min 2)

Stackable combo shield? Am I missing something cause I believe she has to be awakened to get that combo shield and I don’t read anything about stackable, but I find even at sig 60 my combo shield rarely every activates to save my combo lol I get hit my shield goes up but my combo goes away

her heavy gives you a combo shield passive effect that can be stacked: two if she doesn't have any digi-soul, and an additional 2 for every soul that she has. Every hit received consume 1 shield ^_^

She’s not top tier or anything but she’s very useful for certain fights. I used her (unawakened R4) in 6.3 for a few paths including rage, biohazard, and caustic temper/terminal velocity/spike armor. The fact she can’t crit makes her very good for terminal velocity, spike armor, and Sinister. She’s not a champ I’d bring everywhere but she’s really good when I do need her.

The ability to never crit is really valuable, and she's not exactly wasp in terms of being squishy. Armor and regen help her a bunch. I ranked her, never thought she'd have any use in abyss when i did it a long time ago.

Pretty much everything @Daphboy saiid. Don’t use the Digi souls, and she has high block proficiency. Plus she can gain up to 40% health each fight when below 15% and crashes the party in every monthly Cavalier event quest

I have her as a r5 5* and r2 6* (soon to be r3 👀). She’s currently one of my favorite content clearing options as well as war option. I’ve destroyed Apocalypse bosses, Thing bosses, Domino minis, etc all over in T4 war w/ her. She might have a small health pool but she makes up for it in block proficiency and damage. She has access to an easy to use Combo shield that you really don’t need to use if you can play half decent as she finishes fights in around 40 to 150 hits. Her regen is incredible, alongside some pretty great power control potential. I personally bring her into so much content. If you want to see some takedowns I’ll be happy to send you em. She’s amazing!

My favorite character. 👀

Use her in AQ to make minced meat outta apoc. Use her in act 6/7 content, and to cruise through monthly cav EQ. She's done so much for me, lol

Agreed....although spiderham can counter her degen now; but she is still a very solid character, who I personally would love to get...

Its fun to just spam her sp1 and control the opponents power

it’s been almost a year since this post why have we revived it

She is amazing, hope she also had something like aegon where increasing combo could give certain abilities or her armour should have more benefits, her sword can hit with true strikes or something like that.

She was one of my first 6* champs. She sat on the bench for ages. I said all the things above...too hard to maintain the combo, not a big health pool, nothing warlock can't do etc

With the AQ mod that punishes crits I dusted her off, watched some videos and tried her again. Then I started taking advantage of her AI Uprising synergy on anything bio-hazard. Moved her to r2 a few months ago and kept finding more and more uses. Recently went r3..and WOW!

Some basics:

1) parry heavy 6 times to max the combo shield

2) don't stress if you lose combo late in a fight! You can end with no combo at all - as long as it's an SP3 finish you'll start the next fight with 100 combo

3) rinse and repeat

She's an acquired taste for sure. Not for everyone, and probably better for those with a little above average skill. But, ramped in Act 7 / Book 2 I was taking down 350k health pool defenders in about 35 hits. Not sure who else can do that with double immunities, no crits, power control, heal block and strong regen.

Mephisto

@Xguard77 Even I was frustrated using her. I couldn't find a proper place on my team. And as you mentioned, I used to get mad after losing her combo. May I should follow you advise and consider her for R2
