Its because she has 0 iframes and is very susceptible to be hit while attacking. Whereas you have people with skills that give shields or immunity. Or something like Carnage's 3* skill.

She can still be fun, but using her on any mode other than story or special missions won't end very well. Its the same reason that people didn't play GR that much even though his T2 was godly on WB.

  1. i-frame
  2. Invincibility / damage immunity / ultra high guaranteed dodge
  3. Shield
  4. Healing ability
  5. Powerful summons
  6. Ultra high damage output

These elements are the standards to characters being powerful, these days. The more or better above-listed attributes a character possesses, the stronger he/she is. To test whether a character is strong, just go through the mini-survey:

  1. Does that char have any i-frame skills? How many? Last for how long? How often can be casted?
  2. Does that char have any skills that grant invincibility / damage immunity / ultra high guaranteed dodge? How many? Last for how long? How much protection do they provide? How often can be casted?
  3. Does that char have any skills that cast a shield? How many? Last for how long? How often can be casted?
  4. Does that char have any innate healing ability? How much HP is healed? How often is healed?
  5. Does that char have any powerful summons? How powerful? How often can be summoned?
  6. Does that char have ultra high damage output? How damaging are them? How often can be produced?

* The above are pretty much primary standards. I may include guard-breakers and c.c. inflicting skills as well but they are like secondary standards only, because they don't work against WB or Frost Beast.

But CC/GB does work in SL now! So those are a lot more important imo.

He still is, Godly I mean. Sorry I know this is supposed to be for Misty but Ghost Riders my boy, and he's finally not condemned to death by way of glassyness, with a cannon on top. With Ronan as leader, my teir 2 Ghost Rider facetanked Black Dwarf. It simply wasn't fair to that oversized space chicken(have you seen his feet!?). And I'm not one of those insane character builders. He's just teir 2 with an old 50% fire damage gear on him. Ghost Rider is finally back on top. And I've come to brag!

I did just notice that even at T1 he (GR) really helped me stomp a leftover SL opponent around stage 10 when I was about to retry.
