I've seen alot of talk about Deiter or Sera. Not to mention seeing A TON of Deiter's in game. But what about Eleanor and Beyeri? I know that with Eira you can essentially farm for intamacy.

I've seen some Beyeri tanking vids that had an Amistr base. But the only thing I really see about Eleanor is that she's just like having a monk with you.

Sera and Deiter are most popular because they practically have the overall best skills.

Eira's Overed Boost can be used for more than farming intimacy for explosion!
It can flee mobs for you to Cart Cannon, and also it can give both of you 189 aspd. (Emp breaking? Faster CC/AB if you have Cast Time/Delay removed)

Eleanor IMO is strongest with it's single target sonic claw.
This probably only means alot in the early levels... before Poison Mist / Lava Slide (And Magma Flow).
But it still beats out Eira and Bayeri with that one skill.
I also read somewhere that it has an SP drain move? So it might be good for 1v1 PVP stuff.

Bayeri IMO has the short end of the stick.
With it's 2nd skill not doing much (Flee? Not ASPD or HP%), it's 5th skill having interruptable cast time for an AoE skill... Stahl horn not nearly as strong as Paralyze Needle or Sonic Claw...
All it possibly seems to have IMO is the ATK up skill, and the SW casting skill.
I don't see the real practicality of SWing... But perhaps I'd have to actually see it being used.
So all in all, I just see that it has an ATK buff for it's melee hits... and that's it. :x Pretty lackluster imo.
At least you get a derpy looking homunc to stare at though.

Eleanor and Bayeri owners can answer in more detail though.

I have a Filir>Eleanor. Too me i feel like this the pvp homunculus. With sonic claw you might be able to do combos that could on shot people such as acid bomb/sonic claw. Other things at later levels such as utilizing the move tinder breaker. and chain combos while possibly doubling the damage with your gen. As far as leveling it feels slow but ive been very lazy lately so ill let you know when i get higher

I would love to use eleanor, but since she doesnt have an AI to help do her combo's that makes me not really wan2 have her. If i could set up my AI to have her combo skills that would allow me to have her combo while i focus on doing skills with my gen. So take for example a pvp situation. While my homu holds off the player with combo's i can start CCing or ABing that player while maybe keeping her alive with whites. Without the AI helping me that is like 4-6 skills i have to try to do manually at the same time. Which is a lot of work just to do that.

1on1 with anything, elanor is the best S imho. It has strong fast attacks that are great for pvp and pvm

C.B.C is the one that drains SP

i havent messed with her skills yet since im still leveling her. However with a strong understanding of how fighting games work, links and chains are something that come natural to me. If her AI wont support chaining combos im more then capable of learning the timing.
