## **5.3 Trivia, Spoilers & more**

The name Hotdog originates from a well known street food from United State. She is a desert wanderer who is simple headed and has a tomboy-like character. In the name of guiding the oasis, it was mainly theft that took off the referral fee forcibly from the tourists, but the oasis disappeared due to the magical runaway and the monsters appeared, confronting and collapsing, and Ayran's party rescued and joined.

Like a simple personality setting, the skill is also a skill that inflicts great damage on a single target, and the core of this skill is a ranged attack. The hot dog's flat hit is close, but this skill can deal damage immediately regardless of distance, so it can quickly kill even totem-type monsters far away from the hot dog.

However, until the skill was greatly upgraded with the 2.0 patch, there were many structural problems, so if you knew the fact, it was a character that no one would use. The problem with hot dogs is that while the concept itself is all focused on gangdil, it comes from the structural disharmony of a character whose focus is on short-range hitting. Compared to the characteristics of fighting games, hot dogs do not have excellent movement speed, and unlike other melee characters, they do not have the ability to contribute to defense. Other melee characters, except for their skill structure, have little need to deal with or have a chance in the first place. In the case of Ayran, Eclair is a character that primarily contributes to tanking with a defensive skill, and Espresso is a character that can blow up a boss' pattern with a powerful mezzo, so dealing is not very important, so this problem is small, Hot dogs have etheric reinforcement that increases their defenses, and in the theme of being a dealer specialized in attack, there are more times when I can't feel the sturdiness enough to hold on to the fit, so I felt that it was unnecessary in almost all situations. There was a serious problem.

In addition, the characteristics of the totem monster gimmick that hot dogs can counter were not difficult to remove with other characters. As long as the attack power and defense power were adequately equipped, the hot dog's position had only fallen into hell because it was handled without much trouble by quickly killing the totem monster with other characters. Of course, handling exclusive gimmicks with hot dog skills is the fastest, but that doesn't mean that hot dog deals are very good compared to other characters. There was no need for it, because if you were a little short of the proper spec, you can get rid of it with Pepper's Focus Boost skill, and if you slightly exceed the proper spec, you can catch it with Ration and Coq au Vin's flat hit, so there was less need.

It was difficult for totem-type monsters and medium-sized monsters to make one kill with only one skill, unless the spec was clearly higher than the appropriate combat power as the attack went on to the second half, and it was a melee character, so it was easy to be attacked, but other melee characters were defensive skills or mezzes. On the other hand, hotdogs are a character that confronts defensively with a chi, so it is difficult to withstand enemy attacks. Therefore, even though ether enhancements that increase defense by 30% are attached, when exposed to strong attacks on a melee character, it first collapses. There was even the irony that it was easy, so it was difficult to feel that the deal was greatly strengthened even after obtaining Rita's Artifact. In addition, Pepper, which has a utility that basically doubles attack speed/movement speed for 3 seconds, and a buff skill that is good for extreme deals, is much better to compensate for the attack power that is a little short. It wasn't good enough to approach or move normally, but the processing speed was slow and the defensive ability wasn't strong enough to be a big help in the actual game. Even if the ration that comes before Pepper is the final reinforcement criterion, if you properly match the ether level without a skill, the knuckling performance is better than the hot dog, and when you get the Rita's Artifact, the flat hit is stronger. If you put Coq au Vin here, it was treated as a character abandoned in many ways because it was possible to safely deal with enemies with a little blood pain from a distance with just a flat hit with the proper specifications.

Compared to Ration and Pepper later, hot dogs appear in 4 regions, and at this point, except for Coq au Vin, there are no dealers who have strong deals until muffins are released. There is room. The problem is a lot of investment When I see the power of a good level at the beginning of the second half that had occurred two days' ill be getting this. In this situation, even the appearance is a subtle appearance that is close to a wild child. As a female character, there are few skins that are particularly attracted to the appearance that does not distinguish between genders. A character of unlucky enough to say that he instinctively skips.

Afterwards, the skill factor of strengthening ether was increased with patch 1.20, and Rita's Artifact After obtaining, there was room for a certain amount of use as a fixed monster counter. However, if you have the resources in progress enough to grow by this time, it is better to grow the aforementioned Ration or Pepper, and to distribute the resources to all characters, you will reach level 90, which was at full level even if you paid for the Ether Double Package. It was not possible to obtain as much ether that could be distributed generously compared to the number of characters, so that the time required to raise it was insufficient. It was still the most backwards in the character rankings. However, after patch 2.0, it became possible to obtain a large amount of ether through the ancient elf city, and from then on, the burden of raising it became much less.

Due to the low preference rating, a major change and upgrade were made once more with the 2.0.0 patch, a large patch. First, the Power Shoveling deal has been greatly increased, the damage has been greatly increased from 700% to 1160%, and the Rita's Artifact damage increase effect has also increased from 10% to 40%. As a result, when using a skill on a monster other than the boss, **2088%** It was able to inflict massive damage. Due to this increase in damage, if the specs to withstand a totem-type gimmick with quite red combat power are well matched, one kill cut can be thrown out without relentlessness, and even in the case of purple combat power, if the attack power is strengthened enough, it will be possible to make a morbid or one kill cut. I can. Above all, the sun deal has been greatly reduced, so the moment when totem monsters appear, when other characters are holding other mobs, they can be processed at the speed of light without even knowing about rats and birds.

However, despite taking this upward trend, the evaluation is somewhat ambiguous. In the first place, the hot dog itself is a short-range character that is difficult to operate, and the only means to increase defense is 30% due to ether enhancement, but the actual performance to withstand the attack is still not so good, so it is easy to reach out before others, Due to the game structure, it is impossible to adjust the position of each character and there is no way for the user to arbitrarily quickly turn aggro, so if a situation arises where aggro should be concentrated on the tanker character, it becomes difficult to withstand. Now the skill attack has improved enough, but the problem is that the skill's cool is on the long side, so it would be good against a number of medium-sized monsters from the ancient elven city when used normally, but after putting a single deal on one of them, there is little that can be done after that. With frequent gimmicks, hot dogs tend to have very low DPS. In the case of totem-type monsters, the utility is also ambiguous here, because Pepper's Focus Boost, ration, or a single point using Coq Au Vin can be handled without much difficulty. In the end, the situation to save a strong shot is like a boss battle where it is more important to endure extreme deals than moving.

But then I got the benefits of a hot dog, but just matter Totems-type monster is summoned away from any place without moving the location of the heroes **no damage to** the point that it becomes possible to quickly kill. Compared to before 2.0.0, the number of sun deals has been much reduced, so when a totem-type monster gimmick appears, will the totem be processed steadily and quickly with a hot dog, or with Ration and Coq au Vin as a single point and handle other troublesome guys, With Pepper's Focus Boost, there were a number of options on whether to deal with the totem as quickly as possible and take advantage of the remaining buff time. However, if the totem gimmick and Pepper's suction gimmick overlap, it is better to bring both.

It is recommended to employ it as a must when attacking the final boss Rum for Season 2. This is because, as Rum exudes such a strong pattern, Tabasco alone cannot solve patterns such as energy padding and medium-sized mob summons. If you put a hot dog, it is very useful to inflict a lot of damage with your usual skill and to get rid of medium-sized mobs that have removed the shield with poison gas.

Overall, the evaluation of the current hot dog can be seen as not an essential character, but a character that has risen to a certain usable level'. In the past, when I think about the fact that there wasn't too much room to use, most of them didn't use it~~buff~~I got it right. However, there are many users who still do not raise their liking and dislike because there are parts that are not necessarily / necessary in battle. Choose whether or not to grow according to your taste. Fortunately, the supply and demand of ether needed for upbringing could be called in ancient elven cities, so if you rescued a lot of residents, you could quickly raise her to level 80.

With this artifact: "Hungry Beast Necklace", it gives more damage buff for the Power Shoveling skill. And an Additional movement speed will increases when skill is used. It is the 1st artifact that provides move speed after skill is used, Great for dodge as pepper's effect perfectly if **"Hungry Beast Necklace" on Lvl 7.**
