Legendary Upgrade "Thorn Apart" Review!

Hi everyone, I hope you're all having an Egg-celent Easter so far! 🙂 I was wondering what all of you who have unlocked the upgrade from the Prize Map think of the Rose legendary upgrade "Thorn Apa...

    @TheSprinter85 The costume is good, though I do think it makes Rose's eyes look a little funny 😂

    As for the upgrade, I think it's going to take a bit of getting used to - it's a peculiar hybrid of GW2's 'Nec Rose & Zen Cactus.

    Sorry, but I honestly think it's way too early to declare the upgrade over- (or under-) powered... it's powerful, yes but it won't suit everyone's style & as with the Corn legendary upgrade some players may decide it isn't worth the loss of other upgrades.

    While I agree it can one-shot certain characters the plants have a significant deficit of classes able to do that when compared to numerous zombie capabilities, so I think team balance needs to be considered, not just the upgrade in isolation.
    The Plants are also a class down, where Zombies have a support character capable of not just one-shotting one player, but several....

    I suspect there will be calls for the upgrade to be adjusted in some way, but I would really hope that people will give it a bit of time to settle in, see how it fits into a team, compares in different modes, against differently skilled players etc before calling for changes.

I love the thorn apart upgrade. Rose was my main from the beginning and i think that after all the changes, she now is in a very balanced and enjoyable state. The orbs can be very powerful indeed, but on the other hand you have to work for them (or at least wait a long time) for them to charge up, so it should be rewarding. I feel like the Zombies have a couple of high damage abilities and the Plants not.

    I believe full charge 1-shots 125HP enemies. This part is OP obviously. Overall, it's a pretty good upgrade. In order to get full charge you need to survive a bit and play conservatively. I'd say on defense it might be slightly better than on offense. Definitely worth the upgrade points imo.
