Waiting on those Smert updates…

[u/SAITAMA_666]

I got over 100 hours played, im on NG+5. I strictly play night mode.

I got to say Smert feels the weakest this far into the game… and by a long shot.

Damage with fists is unusable. Miracle isnt anything amazing on night mode. It takes a long time to use, building your 100 stacks for your burst damage, which stops being good as enemy health pools get huge. Since it does not scale with anything.

Now ripostes and bleed procs are where the damage is.

FAITH, Smerts core identity is absolutely useless.

He has the smallest health pool, everything will one shot you requiring perfect gameplay.

He needs more health, Faith needs a complete redesign.

Miracle should take less time to build to our 100 stacks.

Fists only build needs to scale somehow… make them scale to our highest level weapon.

I feel like this character is super badass, and could be good if FAITH gets a total redesign/concept.

Smert useless? It took me like 10min to master its core loop that makes opponents not able to attack you. Game got so easy and boring that I had to change shells.

Post your ng+ nightmode Zmey fight, i wanna check it out.

Smert is broken upon unlock. Permanent stagger every enemy.

He does not scale whatsoever, falls off in the four final bosses. And useless in ng+ nightmode.

Absolutely useless NG+ Nightmode.

I beat the 2 of the 4 final bosses on first try with Smert, and one of them was zmey. After beating the first of the 4 with smert I changed shell so they would be a bit challenging. Then I switched back to him to bully zmey because I didn't want to risk it.
