Purgatory review and debate

TheManMythLegendTheManMythLegend Member Posts: 5,016 ★★★★★
As some of you may know ive been a huge Morningstar fan for the longest of times and thus when purgatory was revealed it started off a hype ive never felt before.

Sadly upon her release it looked like the biggest let down ever and i continued with that mind set and so it seemed everyone else did aswell. But then i pulled the 6* and since i already have all the other gods at r3 i decided why not and took her up.

I looked far and wide to find out the best playstyle only to realise that most people actually dont seem to know what it actually is. People seemed hellbent on firing those s2s when in reality you just wanna focus on the incinerates and keep yourself over and under 2 bars to easily capture souls and refresh whatever ability comes with.

After having her r3 for a short time now im actually starting to rather like her. She can take down rol fights in around 1 minute which is pretty good dps for a r3. Not at the top but certainly above the standard of a good champ. And i do like how easy it is to keep the ability from souls going.

Ofc its not all just sunshine and lollipops i still do not like that you have to get lucky that certaib classes are placed here and there to take advantage of her utility and that they last only a few fights. As good as potential as shes got i feel they missed the mark heavily there.

As such i will have to rate her as good but falling short of beeing great.

Whats everyone elses thoughts? I know shes not a popular champ but hopefully trying out this method you will like her just a tiny bit more

    Shes good
    i like mine but I still do not enjoy the souls lasting for two fights

    if they lasted the whole quest then I think it would be a lot nicer

    100%. I enjoy playing her and find her animations and dmg satisfying. But shes too situational and unreliable with the utility which is a big shame. Making the souls last full quest would for sure be a good step
    For sure. Wouldn’t hurt I think if they added the part in her sig about finishing a fight with a special or during Demonic Rampage gives the soul as well

    I honestly don’t have enough experience to definitely say my thoughts on her, but I will say this:

    some people really don’t know how to use her, because often I see on the forums “I hate having to fill 9 whole bars of power to capture a soul”. But really, with the second medium you can jump between bars of power and keep filling them over and over within a very short period of time.

    I really wanted to pull her from the featured I’m not gonna lie, ironically she ended up the only featured champ I didn’t pull.. but I’d love to test her out more. She seems fun to play!

    She helps me a lot in arena
    I rarely lose a fight if I use her there

    On paper Purgatory isn't terrible, I do like the added utility and differing bonuses with different class souls (ala Sinister and MODOK) but she is a little underwhelming and a lot of that can be fixed by a numbers bump to her damage as well as changing the soul mechanic into a persistent charge like Morningstar.

    I have her sig 40 from the last featured. Never touched her outside the aren, for me she brings nothing on the table

    I pulled her from my last featured crystal but honestly I have no idea on how to use her so I just haven’t. When someone does a comprehensive guide that I can read through and get a feel for her then I’ll start trying her out for fun.

    I like the high base damage and some specific utilities. I sadly never learnt how to propperly manage bars and therefore the soul capture was hard.

    My big issue actually was the demonic rampage mechanic. It takes only a couple seconds of defensive AI to lose it all and it is then really hard to build the meter back up.

    So imo ahe is a good champ with interesting ideas in her kit, however it all feels really impractical

    What's worse than decent but better than Morningstar?
