Okay, so most people put down Alter-Egos for their niche of use. They only specialize in dealing with foreigners and multiple calvary class servants in a battle. Otherwise, you would naturally want to bring natural counters instead. Kiara is very special amongst the alter-egos since she has a class advantage against rulers as well as her bonus passive of having an increased defense against humanoids. I'm guessing most people think the biggest con to her is the low attack (due to having the highest HP amongst the alter-egos), and her need to have her skills leveled to make her TRULY effective (although I could say the same about a lot of other servants too).

Kiara specializes in abusing her NP, and her kit is oriented completely around that aspect. She makes up the damage in NP spam, and her skills help her increase NP spam, stall, and survive. If used right, then she is a proper stall servant. One aspect that I believe that really redeems her in power is her pierce invulnerability buff and pierce defense buff that comes with her NP. She is a really terrifying enemy to fight against because of that. I suppose another downside is that unless you really solo with her, you really need an arts team (specifically one that can generate critical stars or are equipped with 2030s). In order to NP spam, she really needs to crit with her arts attacks, or else it won't be enough. One arts card critting with high skills should be enough to fully charge her NP.

This is coming from someone who has maxed leveled her, but only has her skills at 7/6/10 at the moment. It is only from what I noticed so far with her.
