Is Weedy good?
A 6-star Push Stroker Specialist who deploys a Water Cannon (5 DP, 20 seconds, no deployment slot) that attacks three tiles ahead and knocks enemies back; placed behind her, the two combine for very strong pushes. Barrel Burst pushes and stuns, Hydraulics Mode turns her attacks into long-range AoE pushes, and Liquid Nitrogen Cannon blasts an area, shoves enemies far and deals True damage based on how far they travel, fired by the Cannon too when it's nearby.
Skill levels directly raise her push strength, so aim for level 7 and Mastery 3, especially for high Contingency Contract risks.
Strengths
- Top-tier knockback with the Water Cannon
- True damage from distance traveled
- Can deal damage or control
Weaknesses
- Push strength depends heavily on skill level
- Needs good map layout for pushes
Profile
Weedy is a female Aegir. Her birthday is January 23rd, and she stands 155 cm tall. Weedy is voiced by Maya Graydon in English, Maria Naganawa in Japanese, and Oh Ro-ah in Korean.
Background
Weedy is an Iberian Aegir hydrodynamics engineer/researcher from a family of scientists who joined Rhodes Island as one of its first members partly to escape the persecution that befells her race since the Profound Silence, especially after her mentor Abuelo (who himself is the protégé of Weedy's grandfather) lost his research materials from being confiscated by the Inquisition, forcing him to suspend his studies, and to see more of Terra with her eyes.
During her times in R.I., Weedy provides her knowledge in hydrodynamics as the leader of R.I.'s Bioengineering Department.
However, she is known to suffer from mysophobia that makes very cautious about her hygiene and unwilling to do field work.
To overcome this, Weedy later invented an autonomous drone dubbed "Leaf the Bionic Seadragon" to aid her in her tasks and a portable "cannon" firing blasts of pressurized, compressed water partially based from Abuelo's research to provide combat support.
