So is fatalis the one to get? I pulled a bunch and got.
Diablos
Mitzune x2
Seregios x 2
valphalk
Gamoth
Rathalos
Akantor
Barioth x2
Bad rolls? How does Fatalis stack up to dmeta?
- Diablos is nice since now you can pair with all the good partners.
- Rathian is great for poison resist and the delay/poison comes in handy sometimes if it accidentally comes up.
- Mitzune is the best healing assist buff. Equip version on Mel will heal for boatloads for a team like BJ on heart TPA and the active is amazing for RCV debuffs which are getting more common.
- Barioth is a great board change for Yusuke when you need hearts.
- Seregios is equipable tape resist so it can work in coop.
- Rathalos is a pure damage factory for fire teams when maxed to 110 with 7c SA. TE, team HP, and low CD active are nice too.
For Fatalis v DMeta, Fat is easier to activate in general and doesn't need to worry about HP level, but will have a harder time dealing with combos of certain mechanics. For example, VDP for Fat requires 14 dark orbs minimum, which is a lot. Lots of the teams I've seen for him also have Hiei on the team for 99 turn dark skyfall buff. If there is VDP + high combo shield he might have a hard time making it because of the L required. If there is VDP + resolve he simply can't win because there isn't enough room on a 6x5 board for box, L, and heart column. Unless of course you are using a non-dark VDP but then you aren't getting Fat's VDP damage in there.
Fat can use Kuroyuri system though so in that regard he is a safer lead and team building is a bit easier since it's any dark instead of gods. Fat is safer during certain awoken binds if you don't have a clear since he will still have +4 TE from LS. An awoken bound DMeta is unlikely to activate her shield unless you are really fast.
I rolled Fatalis on my 2nd but haven't skilled or limit broken him because I might just make the the weapon assist and stick it on my DMeta. I've been lucky enough to roll optimal DMeta teams on all 3 accounts so if there is something that requires that level of tank she's probably my better option.
