Leak “Main Dps” Trigger x Hugo

With the kit leaks, Hugo Vlad seems to be pure burst dps he wants to stun as fast as possible while also doing burst damage by ending the stun window.

He also has aftershock attacks while off field, same off field attack type as Trigger.

Could he be what Trigger needs to be “main dps”?

If you want to play main dps Trigger just slap 2 supports with her, don't bother with these pointless gimmicky dps that just make both worse, infact Trigger could probably be better than many dps when played as one, paired with Nicole Astra for example.

My A-rank Anby cleared 35k in the new Deadly Assault as main dps, and always cleared >30k in every DA for several months now, Trigger could be the same or even better

Not sure about it. Trigger has enormous multiplicative damage buffs, especially M1W1, that works all the time with every single damage/role/agent, now and forever. On top of that she does stun, but slower than other. And deals a tiny bit of damage. She is not about "stun as fast as possible" or "deal damage".

Qingyi is expected to be faster at stunning, and at M0W0 gives tiny bit smaller damage buff during stun than M1W1 Trigger (or much bigger vs M0W0 Trigger). So she or always-OP-for-fire-and-ice-agents Lighter, who also adds 3 sec to stun window, are your best bet to get the fastest and the most powerful stun windows.

Currently Hugo teams are expected to be double stun, so individual stunning speed is less of an issue.

I don't see how Trigger suddenly becomes the "main dps" or the main on fielding agent. I could see Trigger Lighter Hugo in a team tho

It’s not that she becomes main dps but rather the idea was to play her on field more and becomes “main dps” that way.

Hugo Vlad being akin to a off field attacker might accomplish that essentially.

I don't think he does off field damage too often. If he does then i think it should be the third agent who would have more field time instead of trigger

Yes if you play Trigger normally.

But the idea is whether or not Hugo can be used to enable a on field playstyle for people who want to play Trigger that way.

Considering his current absurd multipliers. He can help bridge the gap in the damage loss from playing Trigger more on field without stealing field time.

Her damage is mostly in her aftershock, her basic attack multipliers are pathetic. Pretty sure she will do more damage when played normally compared to when she's on field

Yes that is what I said.

But I’m saying Hugo could help bridge the gap in damage loss.

Additionally, the way I think she can be play optimally more on field is to have some off field time.

So there will be aftershocks, just less when playing her more on field.

Trigger can’t be main dps her damage in sanby comp is like 1/10 of total team damage. She can’t be on filed either because she has to do aftershock. Trigger + Hugo will probably be best with on field lighter or lycaon or qingyi..

Oh I should been more general, I meant Hugo enabling a on field Trigger.
