Overview
Bamboo RFs all have similar skills that involve gaining charges after the Skill is ready and needing to aim to spend all charges, dealing increasing Damage based on said charges.
This entire RF type has a few significant issues:
- Charges take a significant amount of time to fill up (usually 5s).
- Using it early means there’s very little gain over just auto-attacking, due to aim time (this problem increases as you add RoF buffers to the Echelon).
- Significant chances of overkill.
- Long CD made longer by waiting for charges.
Bamboo RFs are generally not recommended, as simply using a standard self-buffer will yield usually better results; however, DSR-50's SPEQ-set is actually quite decent: If used on autoskill, this gives her a roughly 5/9s uptime, which isn't far off from regular self-buffers, plus a critting bamboo.
Overall, this makes DSR-50 a perfectly usable generalist RF, in line with other generalists, provided you have her previous SPEQ.
