I've mostly done group trials

Bosses I think the issue is the AOE only tics a few times (depending on duration), then you have to build up the music meter again so there is some zero DPS downtime. So my AOE can do like 100-300+ million damage a tic in trials on average, but the bosses can have many billions of health.

Her single target with that mod is ok - on easier content or specific content (like Lava Citadel) she shreds, but on harder content you really feel how lacking she is compared to other OP options. Like with archangel build Serena in trials, if I get the right cards I can literally do 1.6 BILLION damage with my skill 4 and my carpet bombing does like 40 mil a hit per projectile.
How do you keep from constantly running out of MP with Serena? I can do trails and with bad rolls do 4mil damage (ave) and love the play style, but it’s a task to monitor my MP drain. Do you just slot MP collector? She’s a beast but I find myself constantly running around getting mana pots

Ok I felt the same in Legion Labratory. Was insane on mod groups but it really slowed down I though with the boss. Like insta kill groups with no real effort on regular Axiom planes, but bosses felt clunky due to down time (probably me and my slow playstyle honestly)

That mod that gives you MP for killing enemies - I forget the name, but that Serena build video I posted should show it. You can fly and carpet bomb forever so long as there are enemies to kill

It does suffer a bit on boss fights when there are no adds to replenish your MP or in group play where people land the last hit and “steal” your mana replenish opportunities. When doing trials, it is worth taking the skill cost reduction skills to give you more buffer for your mana pool
