@endros77 This forum is extremely negative and toxic at times, I'd say ridiculously so. I think you need to be selective about what you read here, anything with a negative topic header, that doesn't directly affect you........just avoid. I've been playing for over 4 and a half years now and I'm still motivated.
Team synergy will kick in more and more, the better the team gets. So don't get disheartened by early ineffectiveness. Also it's important to put together the 'correct' team, and not just choose them because they have the tag. Saying that the Night Sisters line up can be situational.
Old Daka is a dead cert, with that zombie is also. Acolyte used to be very popular but has fallen out of favour. Her big thing is being stealthed with a perma reviving zombie and therefore untargetable. The further down the road you get though, the less that becomes useful.
