Arknights | Pinecone review

 

As mentioned above, the new four-star hero is a Boomstick Sniper. She is a jail tiger unchained by the banner, and it will run beside the Mansfield Break event. Thus, she has the minimum rareness of her role. 

 

Character introduction

 

Pinecone is created to compensate for the Boomstick sniper archetype. They are AoE snipers with shotguns, and they have a concise range also. Similar to Mountain but not like Passenger, Pinecone can aim the trashed roles, which has turned in to actual option. She manages to do this with her exciting outfit.

 

With the difference in her rarity, she seems to be quite queer when compared to the five-star hero Executor and Aosta. She can overcome hurdles with fewer efforts, and it is a valuable unit in most instances. She has fantastic DPS and AoE capacities. Low rarity is one of such abilities in her.

 

Pinecone | Stats

 

Her overall stats are impressive, and most are into the standard. Her full stats and DS costs removed are less than the other units of the same archetype. This is equal to the difference in her rarity. 

 

Pinecone | Talents

 

Pinecone is a portable source of energy, and it is her unique talent. Anyone in the game has the same talent. Only Eunectes and Vermeil have somewhat similar talents. But, it is not the same. Just after the few minutes of the discharge, she can acquire 0.5 additional SP per second. It means that there will be 150% charge speed in all of her skills.

 

The skill is interesting because she will depart without any talent after the given sixty seconds. But, it will help to both the first and second skills of Pinecone, and she is an Auto SP booster. It is named Ptilopsis. So, it can pitch the 180% charging speed in the first minute.

 

Pinecone | Skills

 

RMA spike 

 

This skill does not have to any other Boomstick Sniper who is not a Greythroat, and the skill can recover automatically during an instant attack with a charge. RMA spike can nominate as her best skill. During the 9th second, the cooldown and strong will have a maximum of three tasks. At Mastery, the RMA spike can strike all the enemies within the range for 200%. There will be a high ignorance of flat defense and damage amplification. 

 

 

In such a situation, the Executor will charge the second skill. Pinecone has a total of eight charges in this skill with 14 S2 boosted attacks. Using it, Pinecone attacks with her shotgun to make sustainable attacks.

 

Electric overload

 

Her second skill is quite atypical. The skill will cut down her range to the row, and in the first cast, it develops the attack by 60% and 20% in the subsequent forms. Using this skill, she can access hyper-charging talent.

 

 The skill will burst after a few seconds and turn into the best version. However, compared with the first skill, the second skill is not wise enough to use if you need no extra bit of burst in the long map where Pinecone can have her fully charged S2.
