Viable?
What do you mean, "viable"?
Because I **love** Ventress on offense, when I'm playing her. It's not so much her ability set (though that does need a tweak) as her AI, which is just terrible. The AI has no idea how to use her abilities. It doesn't save the AoE for a moment when one opponent is weak or for after she gets her rampage boost. She'll go for the debuff/heal when Phasma is on the other side and hasn't given the whole team advantage yet, just because ONE toon (Lumi) got Evasion Up off her basic.
Her AI makes amazingly poor decisions. It neither saves the debuff/heal for healing, nor does it use it mainly as a tool to weaken the entire opposing squad. If it has a little bit of debuffing possible, it somehow thinks it should just go ahead because even if the debuff isn't worth it, there's also the healing: but she's at full Health half the time she does this. It's ridiculous.
Nonetheless, when I can get Ventress through the first round or two, she cranks up into a very powerful gear and lays some serious hurt on the other side.
yes, she starts slow.
No, she is not less than "viable" except when played by the AI.
