Eh? How so? Aventurine is one of the few characters whose gameplay class actually matches his in lore faction.
It's more that Aventurine's character is a gambler rogue archetype. These are types that are more associated with "playing the odds", so I figured he'd have some more randomized mechanics (or at least mechanics that play around with probability) and focus on things like buffing in his support arsenal. A "shield" mechanic I would immediately think of the likes of Gepard, with a personality of "I will protect you!" type. If anything, Aventurine's personality seems to be the opposite of the "shielding" type of character.
part of his cornerstone's powers is shown to shield and protect.
I mean, it'd have to be given Aventurine's penchant for taking risks... I just didn't realize the cornerstone spread its protection to anyone else.
Jiaoqiu is an AoE debuffer, and the only major DPS that works off of debuff are Acheron and Ratio.
Wait...not all DPS benefits from debuffs? Why? (I'm wondering if all AoE DPS can benefit from Jiaoqiu regardless but sounds like the answer is no?)
