Yeah, instinct may be useful if you have a star absorber, or if you put a CE that gives that gives star absortion to 1 of your servants (as "Teacher and I" or ."Conversation on the hot sands"). However, is a very specific niche. Another use i have found to instinct so far is combining st with 1 or 2 "Golden captures the Carp". so that assures 100% crit on every card on the 1st turn.

But is not a self-sufficient skill, so it won't beneffit Artoria or Mordred at all, unless you add more ingredients to the formula. Most of skills are not good on bad on their own, it all depends on the synergy and strategy of the Team. For Artoria, her skills are:

1.- Mana Burst A: "A nice NP Booster" 2.- Charisma B: "Decent skill (at least makes the small difference to outdamage Altera)" 2.-  Instinct A: "Useless" 3.- Radiant Road EX: "Great fix to her before useless skill, which, in combination to her minimun 20% NP charge after NP, makes her one of the best NP Spammers of the whole game"

That's why there's such an abysmal difference between Artoria pre-update and post-update. Pre-update she was just an unidimensional server with only 1 benefit (her damage). She was objetively a TERRIBLE Servant. After update, she's not only the top 1 in AOE damage but also compits for the TOP 1 in NP Spam.
