How useful is the new Me to you guys?

Why do I feel that ME sucks except the new animation and flying around coins? I means it really sucks dmg wise , and it's really slow.... I can clear the whole warrior ground with BS + SB combo in like less than 30 sec.. I feel I have no need for ME...for those who you got higher range, do u really think ME is helpful?

I don't like it whatsoever. I put my last hyper point into bstep's extra 2 mobs rather than the ME damage boost lol. The rest of our revamp is pretty good though, so I can't complain I guess

It can hit the transparent skeleton mobs that the tower thing summons in Dimension Invasion. I guess it's useful for people that can't kill the tower thing fast enough.

@d4rkdragon98 the time u take to blow up the meso and cast dark sight can already hit another or two unbuffed Nate, which probably does more dmg than the way you described.

Just saying though, I found a handy trick. When you have coins scattered everywhere- during bosses for example. I use the ME to build up all 5 of my body count stacks (this works now as multiple skills?) and then use d.s + nate. Rinse and repeat, you will be hitting full buffed Nate after each ME =D

Even with 1v1 , ME has completly no compare to Nate, i mob with BS+SB, 1v1 with Nate, ME will never comes in handy... I really wanna see if any shadower really uses ME prior than other attacks

Yea, I agree that it's much weaker now. I guess it helps CB's train because of it's improved mobbing capabilities, but damage wise, nope I'll miss the old meso explosion.

Best way to sum it up in my opinion:

It's more convenient and flexible, but it doesn't suck.

Just give a while before you figure out exactly all the tricks to using it.

Yea, it's basically useless unless you have like 150k+ range. Otherwise, it's just something to use on monsters that you could easily kill with it (ME).

it's really good in larger maps, plus it's now useful for mobile bosses. i didn't try my shad yet, but it's certainly more useful than using ME before RED.

Personally I am in love with the new version of it. I generally only use it for 1v1 encounters and having 25 coins come off the ground at max level to hit the boss 25 times per explosion is rather neat. Almost has that Rapid Fire feel to it, albeit with an increased downtime between shots.

Yea, I feel as if it changed for the worse. Sure it's new, but it really defies what the name is..."Meso Explosion". It's like whipping a storm of coins and slapping 1 cent pieces into something o.o... I also can't tell how much damage it does anymore because of all the lines that just block each other :C

Only reason I use it at all is because my bstep is just short of 1 hko at TP. That and I figured out how I can get it to at least partially reach the top platform as well meaning I hardly ever have to leave the bottom platform.
