Talk:Eva Unit-02 (Uber Rare Cat)/@comment-39225831-20191216135823

So I've heard a inmense amount of people say I have 02 777 so Thundia will be useless for me now because 02 outclasses Thundia, but welp, something to know here is that, no, 02-777 doesn't outclasses Thundia. There's various reasons for that:

Firstly, both excel against reds, yes. 777 is better for long ranged reds such as Professor A and Nyandam, or when there's a mix of melee, midrange, and ranged reds (i.e: Boiling Spring, although both ubers have above good performance in this stage). So the LD is one bonus for 02. Both have very similar DPS in and outside of red typing.

On paper the strengthen sounds OP, but it really isn't. To trigger it, 02 must be nearing her end, with 1 KB left, meaning she won't live for long with triggered strneghten. She can deal great damage, but if she gets into the hitbox of a ranged enemy or enemies push, she's done for. Also units that deal heavy damage can kill her in 2 hits, meaning no strengthen. (Also Thundia gets strengthen talents lmao)

Most importantly, Survivability and respawn are notable issues on these 2. 02 has more HP (though more is like a 15K difference), but her survivability is still way lower, because 40 less range make a notable difference (Most notable against the Elephant family), and 3 KB leave to less capabilities to reposition herself. Her low survivability also have a very negative effect on their strengthen's performance. Then the CD, to add, 02's respawn time is 40 seconds longer than Thundia's, which on paper seems harmless, but considering the survivability/CD difference, it has a lot of effect in battle (02 actually has the 3rd worst Survivability/CD ratio out of all LD ubers, only behind Kat-A-Pult (outside of zombies) and Nobilan).

Thundia is not better nor worse than 02, in terms of performance they're really similar, and both serve different uses, one chips the backlines and pokes the frontlines while having meh survivability, another deals massive hits to the frontline and has nice survivability, but has issues with backliners that outrange her.
