Sarcastic title, btw. Took my SW to rank 4, sig 200, and she crushes content everywhere. Battlegrounds, EQ, AW, 8.2 beta — she steamrolls.

And she’s fun, if you can accept the chaotic way she gains buffs and places debuffs.

You’re prolly thinking, “yeah, but she needs a lot of synergies…”

Just Quicksilver, for the really big hits. And those are fun, for sure, but what I dig most about SW is her regen, power control, nullify, power gain on top of her damage. Even her solo matches without QS end quick. She regularly get furies and prowess. That sp2 is beefy.

Anyway, after she was (correctly) retuned, people I felt dismissed her, and if you did, IMO you should reconsider.

8.2 fight:

    I was always a believer — I didn’t necessarily agree, but I understood why they didn’t release the kit as a 5-star and was mildly surprised they put it out as a 6

    I take my 5/65 into BGs and get some kills. Not always, but enough to put it in the deck

    If i had 200 sigs laying around sure because she needs it which i always frown at champs who need maxed sig like that. but no doubt she's stellar still.

    I have her at R3 Sig 180 and evven without QS she is still super fun and usable in top-tier content.

    As soon as I got her I put 200 sigs in and put her to R4 she’s still as fun as ever to play and the best part is you don’t have to read a freaking novel to play her. Simple straight forward champ whose like a ticking time bomb don’t use the QS synergy a lot but when I do of course it just enhances everything.

    My entire strategy is: Is she at two bars of power? If so then throw the special.

    I know she needs to be awakened, but what sig level do you need for her to start to shine? Not sure I can get her much above 20 for a while.

    Great news! because just today i duped my OG SW and later on duped my QS. Now got them both at 6* and will be ranking them up soon enough once i have enough gold LOL

    With QS synergy and quake/HE she is almost as good as she was...almost.
