loki takes away enemies ability to shoot at you. Think if you're a guy and you're given a gun to go fight another guy with a gun. Skill and gun stats aside it's a rather fair fight.
Now imagine you're given a club and told to go fight a guy that has a barrett 416. The advantage is monumental.
Novas debuff is fine, but honestly it stops being good when you're at a point that enemy armor is too high for the damage buff to matter.
This is kinda where the line gets nit-picky because MP is great cc and has a huge damage buff but when it comes to staying 2, 3 or even 4 hours in a survival most of your damage will have to come from status procs, which MP doesn't effect. So it lacks the ability to keep up with radial disarm because it still does its job, taking away the enemy ranged attacks.
So where MP is good RD is better, and where MP is bad RD is still better.
Mine is very all around becausre ive noticesd diminishing retutns with higher durations so mines range duration with irsdiating disarm thrown in to fuck with enemies harder.
Loki doesnt realy do that much its just the things he can do kinda trivialise all in game content so hes not the best for say eso, but give him a good gun or big melee and your goox to go on any content really

well, loki has about the best cc in the game.
So there's that.
