did they removed the Aha instant on Apocalyptic Shadow?

Discussion

I remember that after breaking an enemy boss's Toughness bar, Aha would activate instantly. I originally thought that would become a permanent mechanic because Silverwolf999's own Toughness Break is very weak and heavily RNG-dependent.

Right now, Silverwolf999's kit feels much more restricted compared to other main DPS characters.

  1. She doesn't benefit from Ultimate Activation mechanics (such as the current AS). Was this an intentional design choice? It feels unfair that she's the only main DPS character who doesn't gain anything from Ultimate Activation.

  2. Her Toughness Break is weak, and her Elation procs are too RNG-dependent. For example: https://www.reddit.com/r/silverwolflevel999/comments/1t0j41e/you_have_got_to_be_kidding_me/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Sorry for the incoming doom post, but I'm genuinely frustrated with her kit because of the current AS. Instead of highlighting her strengths, this mode seems to expose several weaknesses compared to other main DPS characters. Here are some additional issues I've noticed:

  1. Elation damage doesn't scale with ATK or DMG Bonus, which limits her synergy with both current and future support characters.

  2. She gets punished for taking more turns because it causes Certified Banger and other ally buffs to expire faster. For a character that wants to stack Speed and take frequent actions, this feels contradictory to her own design.

  3. She doesn't allow Ultimate activations during her own turn, which restricts strategies such as extending buffs on Turn 0.

  4. Even when paired with Sparxie, her Loot Box generation is still RNG-heavy. There are runs where I spend over 15 SP on Sparxie but only trigger one or two Loot Boxes, making her performance feel inconsistent.
