    Default Lann Vs Fiona

    I've been playing Fiona, but recently tried out Lann. To be honest, I have no idea which one to play as.

    It said Fiona was more "technical" and harder but that it payed off, I'm just not seeing that. It seems that statement is reffering to her counterattack ability, which is good, but just not worth it all the time. It doesn't seem to make up for the raw power that Lann can put out.

    I dunno, thinking about switching to Lann, I like the sword and shield thing, but the shield doesn't feel as handy as I'd like it to.

    Anyone want to share their experiences?

    The difference between Lann and Fiona is Armor.
    Also Fiona can block attacks and counterattack.

    Fiona can equip Plate/Heavy armor from start of the game.
    Lann can not equip it until mid/end game lv 40-50+, and im talking full set plate/heavy armor...

    They both do about same Damage.
    it all depends which char you wanna play as.

    I don't know.

    Between me and my friend we worked out that I'd play Lann and he'd grab Fiona, It's hard to say who deals the most DPS simply because manhandling gnolls is so easy, but if you get into it I've seen my friend block so many attacks while keeping an offense going in boss fights, while I have to back off and lose some DPS while trying to get out of the way and back to the boss at hand, he can continue his assault by just blocking and resuming his attacks.

    This is only an observation from a low level player though, they both have their niches, I'd just go with whatever feels 'right' to you.

    I'm level 14 and wearing heavy armor.

    As far as I'm concerned though, Fiona is kinda useless. I mean, she has a shield, and can block and whatnot, but this isn't a tank and spank kind of game. Seems kinda pointless imo.

    Different playstyles.

    I like being able to perfect block attacks, taking 0 hp/stamina damage and continue attacking, while others like their dash with invincibility frames.

    Biggest Difference between those 2:

    Stun

    Fiona's Amaranth Kick and Counter Attack give amazing stun rate.

    Yeah, I've noticed Fiona excells at stunning bosses compared to Lann. At least, that's how it appears to me.

    I'll still be dropping her for Evie though >.>

    It's VERY VERY easy to dodge most forward attacks as lan, because you almost have a half second invincibility when dashing. It takes away from your constant damage, but if your fion is taking the aggro for most of the fight you dish out more dmg.

    I think fion is a better solo'er, and useful in a party but when were talking party play the damage and ability to avoid damage goes to lann =/.

    but there's those ******ed *** attacks where the do damage from the backside, witch I don't understand how to avoid yet =/.

    Only with the battle scythe, which is what I'm planning to play. With the wand/staff she does a pathetic short hop thing :P

    Fiona is way better then Lann.

    If you think pure dmg yes Lann but realize a lot of bosses has attacks that only Fiona can guard through. Some attacks are too wide for you to just run away too. With bosses, you technically do more damage as fiona by guarding all the time+smashing.

    you can recieve your first scythe at lv.12 from brin, when you equip the battle scythe you will no longer be able to use gem and runes instead you will have new actions called drain and release, i noticed you can only use blink to teleport out of danger with battle scythe. o_o
