User blog:SimpleorGidofter/Unpopular Units: Felneus

Let's just go over one of the main truths of Brave Frontier: generally, humanoids > beasts. When the developers made the game, they made a batch of monsters that would be easy for the player to defeat, but they don't translate well into units that summoners use. The most popular one from that batch was Altri for his healing abilities, but if you happened to read the title of this blog, you will know it isn't Altri we're talking about. No, we are talking about Felneus. Let's see how this water dragon compares to Altri.

Stats:

Felneus So, his stats are worse than Dean's. This isn't looking good so far for Felneus.

However, there is a good reason to use him as a leader. His LS is a lot like Elza's:

Leader Skill: Ares' Excelsior[Brave Burst] Huge boost in BB gauge fill rate

It fills up the BB fill rate by 1.5x.This is actually not a bad Leader Skill at all. However, its flaw is that it only works with BC, and not BB fillers.

Compared to Dean's BB, Dean's is actually barely better:

Brave Burst: Riptide[Offense] 8 combo powerful Water attack on all enemies

Dean's Brave Burst beats Felneus' by one hit. It isn't much, but ir's a small disadvantage.

His SBB is way better, though:

S uper  BB: Flood Noir[Support/Offense] 10 combo powerful Water attack on all enemies & boost to BC drop rate  for 3 turns

The BC drop rate increases by 30%. To compare, Nick's SBB BC drop rate is 20%. Granted, Nick's SBB is a 16-combo triple elemental attack and also increases Item drop rate (He's my favorite unit, BTW), but that doesn't matter, we're talking about BC drop rate here, and Felneus surpasses him in that regard.

He seems to be an average unit. He's really useful for generating BC and giving a boost to the BB gauge, but with even without the 7-stars out, Felneus has struggled with other units. How ever, with Altri getting his 7-star soon, maybe Felneus will finally see some justice. However, at this point, the score he recieves is:

Score: 4/10
