By that, I mean what kind of build do you thing the Seraphynx will compliment most with its defensive aura and "healing" ability? Will it go best with a Swordmaster, Gunslinger, or Bomber?
If I were to make a Gunslinger and run with a Seraphynx focused on Defensive Aura, would I be a welcome sight in parties?
Here is what I thought to myself about sprites:
Drakon = Swordmen
Seraphynx = Bombers / Gunners
Maskeraith = Bombers / Gunners
Maskeraith became popular and lots of people would prefer Maskeraith.
I find the Maskeraith works better with swordsmen more than bombers or even gunners. His ult skill relies on him being in close range, while the Quills rely on multiple attacks to trigger properly, not just one big detonation of a bomb. The invis just gives you maneuverability. If you have any experience as a recon swordsman, then you can (ab)use the Maskeraith invis.
Hmm. Because if I was to make a Gunslinger, I'd want it to be full support, meaning to focus on increasing heart drops and keeping Angelic Aura up as often as possible, while supporting the team from the rear.
Problem with the Seraphynx is just the range. Seraphynx is pretty short range, shorter range than most, if not every gun.
I also want my Battle Sprite to cosmetically match my armor loadout. Since I plan on running with Vog Cub and whatever the new shield is (looks like Barbarous Thorn, but it's Fire instead of Shadow), I'm tempted to try Drakon, especially for Flame Barrier. I'm only hoping he's effective in FSC.
It would better benefit swordsmen and bombers. Heart Attack has a rather short aoe, and Ray of Light is also incredibly short range. Angelic Aura is also basically temporary invulnerability, which better benefits swordsmen and bombers on the front lines, rather than gunslingers in the back.
I feel the Drakon works best with Gunslingers.
