Talk:Artoria Pendragon (Lancer Alter)/@comment-120.188.87.32-20160917052840/@comment-29893250-20160924193826

Alter hits harder on an individual shot basis. Vanilla spams better, tanks, and supports better. Yes, if you do support, support, and ask which lancer artoria to use after that, it'd be alter because you're asking which is better when propped up on a pedestal. If looking at anything other than a double support (where better charisma is devalued and alter's version of blessings has increassed value because you only have one heavy hitter), then vanilla is just going to outclass the alter being better at being self sufficient (without going into being greedy) and being balanced, better at just about everything on the back of being a later 5 star vs an earlier 4 star. So you can craft a situation where alter is better but tbh, I wouldn't be using either of them with a double support.
