 Hey everyone, welcome back to Alchemy Stars with P5R in the horizon probably next week. I think they're dropping on July 14th. They are actually giving us a taste of what they're gonna give us once they drop. So first we'll be discussing the skill stacking and weak status because all of them will be having this effect. So exploiting weakness, stacking and weak status, all P5R Orion skills can add or change the stacking of this special effect on enemies when the number of stack reaches 100. The target enemy will automatically enter the weak status. Okay, likewise when an enemy enters the weak status, the number of stacks will be changed to 100. So it's going to be vice versa. Special skill info bring any P5R Orion to the current collaboration campaign into the stages can trigger the special skill. So a dedicated skill button, so a separate button will be added with a cooldown of its own is designated for players. The skill deals damage to all enemies. Take note of that. The exact damage depends on the number of stacks, sorry, the number of stacks of exploiting weakness on enemies, whether the enemy is in the weak status and the number whether the enemy is in the weak status or and the number of P5R Orion deployed. So take note, there are two kickers here, weak status and the number P5R deployed in your lineup. So both weakness stack and weak status of all enemies in the field will be effective continuously. So it takes it takes effect simultaneously when special skill ends, all enemies weak status will be cleared. Okay, performance of the special skill, performance of the special skill will produce the classic all out attack animation from the original of P5R, which is the main traction for players and inspiration for the design. So hopefully this mechanic is is not going to be a gimmick. That is actually my my apprehension for the collab and for new mechanics sometimes or most of the time it's usually a gimmick, but we're going to be discussing Mona here. So Mona is a sniper guys. Let's enlarge this a bit. Forest with subpar stats here. So let's go through Mona's skills. Active skill first here is show your might zero. Cool down is three preemptive strike. Mona enters the battle with its special skill. Celestia tile deals 240 damage to tiles along the way and an adjacent and adjacent tiles inflicts five stacks of exploit weakness to each enemy. And when it's going to be thunder it's going they're going to receive 10 stacks instead. So they have she actually has a what they call this a bit of a grudge with thunder and deals damage to all enemies according to the number of P5R collaboration characters deployed. So that is it deals more damage to enemies with weak status and dispels all weak statuses. When all enemies have weak status a special skill displayed is triggered. I'm not sure if this the special skill that the button is automatically triggered or you have to trigger it by pressing on it. So that will have to see exploit weakness enter weak status after gaining 10 stacks of exploit weakness sorry weak status chain combo he has four nine and 13. So 155, 160, 170 kind of an average in terms of damage deals to nearest enemies within surrounding clusters and inflicts one stack of weakness to each enemy hit thunder enemies receive three so it just increases as you do more chain damage and also the number of enemies increases as well and the number of stacks of exploit weakness also increases. So equipment when Mona inflicts exploit weakness that stacks on enemies there is a 30% chance of doubling the effect and only a 30% chance of that's good kind of but it should be more than 30 kind of around 35 probably or 40 and doubling the effect and a 1% chance of inflicting weak status okay each normal attack inflicts one stack of exploit weakness thunder remains enemies receive two stacks instead when Mona first changes from team member to captain during battle Mona gains 20% increased normal attack damage in this round from team member okay so captain swap increase tends to increase his normal attack damage in this round okay so what do we see here as something good for Mona probably just the new mechanic I'm actually you know I'm excited to find out what it is as per being a sniper um I think I think Mona is going to be just you know your average sniper I don't see any impact um that um Mona will give that much but more or less if you bunch them up if you have several you know several several aurorians with p5r on your team probably this could work because the stacks increases quickly if you have more of them on your team so that is I think what Mona brings at this point um even even the equipment skill is really really um geared towards increasing stacks so that's it so hopefully again the the synergy that I'm looking for with other other new aurorians with p5r is actually it's actually making me curious on what synergy will they have how you can really make them work is is this new mechanic really viable at this point so I'm actually waiting for the others to pop out in terms of their skills but at this point a five star I don't think Mona is going to make that difference probably another gimmick at this point or probably a support in terms of the new mechanic that they have but at this point that is actually my opinion of Mona so we'll just have to wait for the others to drop and let's see what their kit is but for Mona decent enough probably average enough but I don't think uh will be a good standalone probably good in a team of p5r in your team or in your you know in your team of five so hopefully we could get more from the others as they come okay guys so what do you think with Mona is Mona good is the kit good what are your thoughts please put them down in the comment section below and hopefully we could have a good collab and probably I'm looking for actually I'm looking forward to a better mechanism this time in terms of a new bunch of aurorians coming through okay guys so thank you very much for staying this far so again for comments please do put them in the comment section below thank you guys stay safe take care this is the warden and I'm out of here
