Sabine zeta (terrible AI)

Darksaber strike is prioritized by AI instead of a zeta’d demolish. This shouldn’t be the case, if a character’s zeta is on a special ability, they should use it whenever possible. Feels like a wasted zeta.

    Hiya,
    This may not be a bug. Please note this also depends on how many enemies are present. Since "Demolish" is dealing damage to *all* enemies, it doesn't make sense to be prioritized over a "Darksaber Strike" when there is only one enemy present.

    zylo is actually more useful using his AOE while in his own faction. I would hate it if this was changed


    I agree, but it’s a terrible attack outside of his faction, and he really needs to prioritize his stun when his protection is low or he is the only FO character alive. He would be so difficult to take out under a KRU lead if he would restore his protection.

    I wholeheartedly disagree. Regardless of how many enemies are present, sabine will use darksaber strike instead of demolish.

    I auto GW with Phoenix frequently. Sabine’s first move will be darksaber strike, even with 5 enemies present. Chopper will have a chance to assist on any phoenix turn, and if it happens to buff sabine and reduce her cooldown, her next attack will AGAIN be darksaber strike. Two turns have passed, and she has not used her zeta ability that has been ready from the start.

    I want to emphasize again that sabine’s demolish is a ZETA ability (you know that material that takes a month to farm? And dozens of other powerful characters need?) Not having that attack used whenever possible is incredibly frustrating to whomever invested the zeta.

    Really hoping this is fixed, as it certainly is an issue.
  • Quick summary of my benign comment that was removed:

    Sabine’s opening move is darksaber strike, even with 5 enemies present. Chopper will likely assist her or another phoenix, with a chance of buffing sabine and reducing her cooldowns. Sabine’s 2nd move will be another darksaber strike.

    Two moves have passed and sabine has not used her ZETA abililty that has been ready from the start.

    Zeta abilities take a long while to acquire and dozens of characters have solid zetas. Right now, sabine is a wasted zeta until AI is fixed to prioritize demolish whenever possible.

    Edit: previous comment has reappeared. Glad but confused

    It is prioritizing darksaber strike even when there are 5 enemies


    Yes it is
  • Also doesn't demolish expose a random enemy for every Phoenix member in its zeta? Thats 5 exposes for one person if there is only one left, thats a hell of a lot better than Darksaber Strike even if it is an AoE.

    Edit: 6 exposes, including the one applied to the main target.
