Five-star iron guard reloaded, heavy rain. Today we put aside the cooking power, according to various data and actual combat performance, to evaluate her strength in detail. It is divided into five sections: panel data, talents and characteristics, skill analysis (2), infrastructure and comprehensive evaluation, let's get started!
Rainstorm: Five-star Iron Guard
Five-star heavy crew: Heavy rain
Panel data: Five-star reloaded dryman, heavy rain. Her sub-profession is common and has been in large numbers since the game's earliest days: "Iron Guard", commonly known as "regular reloading". Its characteristics are simple: "able to block three enemies", they can provide shelter for our cadres through defense and blocking, and the effect is simple but very reliable.
On the panel data, we list all the Iron Guards above the four stars as a reference, including: Twilight, Asbestos, Aurora, Gray Milli, Blitzkrie, Baisong, Kosan, Razer, Linguang (regardless of talent, the four stars and the active operator calculate the full dive, and the rest are calculated according to the full level of the second level)
Panel data for heavy rain
The overall attributes of the rainstorm are on par with Those of Bai Song, and they are able to meet the five-star pass standard when they are full of dives. The advantage of the rainstorm is the survival end, and her life limit is higher than that of other five-star heavy-armored cadres, and even close to the six-star star bear. However, rainstorm's attack power is very weak, and the data below 380 points will be directly reflected in her offensive and healing abilities. Panel data can be summed up in one word: defending strong and attacking weakly.
As an event giveaway officer, Rainstorm is the same as its predecessors: it is difficult to compare with regular five-star reloads in terms of hard power, but it will always lead in some strange functions. Her unique function is: dodge and heal, let's take a look at them.
Deploy heavy rain
Striped camouflage of rainstorms
"Striped Camouflage: High Platform Operators within themselves and 8 blocks around them get 20%/23% physical dodge."
The first day of the rainstorm, "Striped Camouflage", is very similar in effect to the five-star auxiliary Moon He's skill "Traceless", both of which can give the surrounding friendly forces the ability to dodge. However, compared with Yuehe, who relies heavily on skills, Rainstorm pays more attention to the position factor of "the deployment position of teammates". As long as it is a teammate who deploys a circle around her, she can directly enjoy this dodge bonus. The range is limited, but it is easy to trigger and covers the entire process:
Here's a digression: campaign giving away operatives is always limited by a similar range of deployment. Not only the dodging aid of the rainstorm, but also the speed bonus of Shi Huaiya, the anti-concealment of the thin sound photography car, the medical bullet treatment of the breeze, and the ring of hellfire melted in the hell, all of which are limited by the scope of the "surrounding 8 blocks". The strength of these skills themselves is quite good, but "controlling the effective range" has become one of the ways for Eagle Horn to control the intensity.
Regarding the specific mechanism of dodging, I have talked in detail in the evaluation of the flame tail before, and I will not expand here. To put it simply: the dodge success rate = 1-(1-A)*(1-B)*(1-n). The following is a list of the chances of the operators dodging under the two different bonuses of moon and rain, for reference (calculated by skill level 7):
The dodging effect of heavy rain
The dodge assist ability of the rainstorm is one notch lower in effect, but it is relatively easy to trigger. In the calculation of the special formula, the lower the self-dodging, the higher the gain amplitude of the operator. For example, Sir Chen, who only relies on talent and has a 13% chance of dodging, has increased by a full 20% with the help of heavy rain.
Considering that the attack power of the enemy in the game is becoming more and more terrifying, and the presence of the attribute of defense is becoming weaker and weaker, blocking and dodging may become a new coping method and trend. At this point, the rainstorm that can provide us with 23% dodge may be difficult to perform in the regular team, but it definitely has untapped potential.
Emergency Camouflage: First aid for hunger strikes

"Emergency Camouflage: The next attack will cause a friendly operator with less than half the health around to gain camouflage and restore 50/55/60/70 health per second for 4 seconds (no repeated releases will be given to operators who already have the effect of this ability); Rechargeable 1/2 time. ”
First, the skill mechanism: The "emergency camouflage" of the rainstorm is almost the most common "first aid" on the milk shield next door. Not only is this ability to recharge like First Aid, but it is also triggered when allies are half-blooded. The effect is also to change the next attack of the operator to a treatment, and the overall similarity is very high.
But the Iron Guard is the Iron Guard after all, not the Guardian of the "Milk Shield", and The Rainstorm has made some magic changes in the way of treatment. Her treatment is not a smooth return, but like Garville's regeneration effect, it will continuously restore life to allies, taking 4 seconds. At the same time, her treatment will also give the special effect of "camouflage" to the target of treatment, as shown in the following figure:
Emergency camouflage demo animation
There are two details here, the first is that when the rainstorm selects the treatment target, it will not be affected by the "will not become the treatment target of other cadres" and the prohibition of treatment. That is, she can treat the cadres of the hunger strike department. At present, it can mainly cover three sub-professions: warrior, reaper, and indomitable, that is, the six people in the following figure:
Treatment of hunger strikers
The second is that the "emergency camouflage" of the rainstorm and the "vitality regeneration" of Gavier cannot take effect at the same time. The "healing" effect produced by the two is not superimposed, its essence is to increase the "regeneration of life per second" attribute of the target, which is not affected by the healing multiplier bonus, so it cannot be stacked.
Second, the treatment capacity: Let's take a look at the treatment capacity of the rainstorm. Considering her reloading positioning, the main reference here is the Milk Shield and some other heavy armored cadres with healing abilities, and the addition of Garville, who also has a regenerative effect, includes: Spot's "Secondary Healing Mode", Gummy's "Spare Military Food", Gavel's "Vitality Regeneration", Flawed Light's "Radiance Surge", Celeia and Rinko's "First Aid", and Wu's "Counter Healing":
Measurement of the therapeutic amount of heavy rain (level 7)
The healing capacity of heavy rain is the lowest of all reloads, and it is not comparable to that of medical officers. The main reason here is that the milk scale of the rainstorm is only tied to the skill level, not to her own training level, so she is easily surpassed by other cadres who calculate the percentage of attacks. The HPS of 50 skill periods and 19 full cycles is almost only one-fifth to one-sixth of the five-star milk shield of the same rarity degree. So with the increase of specialization, can the amount of treatment of heavy rain turn over?
Measurement of the therapeutic amount of heavy rain (Special 3)
In the case of the same completion of the third task: the amount of treatment for the rainstorm is still at the bottom, and it is not at the same level as the other cadres. Her skill period HPS under the highest training level is only 70 points, the full cycle is 29 points, and the gap with other cadres has even been further expanded, and it is still less than one-fifth of the "first aid" of Linguang.
Therefore, at the therapeutic end, the summary is that the amount of treatment in the rainstorm is better than nothing, and it is much lower than that of the regular milk shield cadres. After all, the Iron Guard is still the Iron Guard, and it cannot become a guardian. In terms of pure milk, heavy rain is not worth relying on at all. Her biggest highlight is still focused on the following two points of functionality: one is to be able to treat hunger strikers, and the other is the special effects application of "camouflage".
Third, practical application: Let's first talk about the unique mechanism brought by the rainstorm, camouflage. The official description is: "When not blocked, it is not the target of ordinary local attacks, but it is impossible to dodge sputtering attacks." This mechanism is not uncommon at present, it has already appeared in the three people of Rare Sound, Kafka, and April, but it can only act on itself or summons. At this time, the rainstorm is completely different, and she can use it to assist her teammates.
Torrential Camouflage Assist
Therefore, the most suitable application scenario for the "Emergency Camouflage" of the Rainstorm one skill is to assist a hunger strike teammate, or other operators who will fight alone (such as mountain, thorn, etc.). Although her milk intake is insufficient, she can make full use of the vacuum period of the hunger strikers, and the overall treatment situation can be seen under the superposition of the two efficiencies:
Heavy rain treatment for hunger strikers
Fourth, the benefits of specialization: a skill of heavy rain, "emergency camouflage", has changed qualitatively at a specific time, increasing the number of recharges. The HPS improvements from level 7 to specialty three are: 10%, 20.1%, and 39.9%. However, since her treatment volume is too low, it is only recommended to promote to single-mindedness, which will give her the opportunity to "camouflage" double goals. Recommended training level: level 7, specialization.
Specialized materials for heavy rain
Fifth, in summary: the "emergency camouflage" of heavy rain is not a general skill that a conventional team is worth carrying, but a countermeasure technique. In many cases, it is specially used to pair with hunger strikers, as well as to deal with enemy leaders who will "name" and release skills. But in the functionality of this "camouflage", the two skills "group camouflage" to be said below will be better.
Group Camouflage: Damage avoidance

"Group Camouflage: Stop attacking enemies; +40%/45%/50%/55% defense, +40%/45%/50%/55% health cap, grant camouflage to yourself and friendly operators within 4 blocks around you."
1. Skill Mechanism: After turning on the second skill "Group Camouflage", Rainstorm will continue to increase its various survival attributes, including: defense, health cap, and special effects given to the surrounding four friendly camouflage.
In terms of skill mechanics, this is somewhat like the "shell defense" or the "bronze seal" of another Iron Guardian Snake Slaughter Box, but there is a difference in effect. In the animation effect, everyone's body is covered with the unique black and white stripes of the zebra, as if it has lost its tracks:

Second, survivability: Let's calculate the survivability of the rainstorm two skill "group camouflage". Other operators with individual defense or life cap buffs are considered here, including: Bai Song's "Deepening Front", Bubble's "Beaten", Snake Slaughter's "Shell Defense", Nian's "Copper Seal", Star Bear's "Battle Will" and "Thorn", The Praiseworthy "Automatic Defense", and Vulcan's "Hold Mode":
Group camouflage survival calculation
As a heavy-duty officer, the overall defensive attribute of the rainstorm has reached the level of five-star heavy equipment. Although she is low in terms of specific defense, even if she opens the skill, it is only at the level of star bear normalization. However, due to the skill, which greatly increases her life cap, the overall rainstorm becomes very resistant.
Third, practical application: Camouflage ability has been analyzed in detail in the above article, here is only in the effect from a single body to a group, it will not be repeated. Compared with its own skill, the advantage of group camouflage is in two points: it can act on multiple objectives, and it can be controlled and freely choose the timing.
Restrain the Black Knight's rainstorm
For example, in the previous "My Way Forward", the rainstorm can effectively escape the "light given to suffering" of the "martyr" Andon. For another example, in the face of the "Emperor's Blade" hunter at the bottom of the replica activity, the rainstorm can make the opponent's [kingdom] unable to choose the target, and finally the internal guard can only be released under his own feet, reducing a lot of pressure for our side:
The "kingdom" where the rainstorm hides from the inner guard
The core meaning of the Rainstorm Camouflage is to protect our core output operators and avoid damage, which can only take effect when blocked and splashed. It can cover a wide range of scenes and enemies, and can: ignore the enemy's ranged attack and locking skills, especially suitable for dealing with boss-level enemies. This is not only used to defend against high-risk enemies, but also to protect our core output from dangerous living conditions.
Dodge Faust and ballistas
As a result, Torrential Rain and her camouflage are very effective in targeting the following skills: Ballista in the map, Faust's Crossbow Arrows, Tarula's Ignition and Fireball, Patriot's Shots, The Inner Guard's Kingdom, and so on. These difficulties will be cleverly resolved by the camouflage of the rainstorm, and the strategic significance will be full.
Fourth, specialized benefits: Rainstorm's two skills "group camouflage" has no obvious qualitative change points, but constantly optimizes its own survival dual attributes. From level 7 to special third, the overall increase in turnover rate is: 1.98%, 4.01%, 7.18%. Given that this is a functional skill, the increase in turnover rate will be far more critical than the increase in defense, and the benefit of this 2 to 7% increase is average. Comprehensive Recommended Training Level: Level 7.
Rainstorm Carrying Skills Recommended
Fifth, in summary: the second skill of the rainstorm, "group camouflage", is her absolute core skill. Even now, with a wide variety of functions, the ability of this group camouflage is still unique and scarce. Even if you don't plan to use torrential rain frequently, it is recommended to pull up to the Level 7 skill of Jingyi in case you need it.
Infrastructure and comprehensive evaluation
First, infrastructure skills: The first infrastructure skill of the rainstorm is called "guard", and its specific effect is: "When stationed in the control center, the mood of all the cadres in the control center recovers +0.05 per hour." ”
Heavy rains are stationed in the control center
After the appearance of the Rainbow Squad, which can restore the mood, this kind of unpretentious traditional infrastructure skills have been lost. It is only recommended that the rainstorm be used as an alternative to the control center, and it is not enough to obtain the position of the main force.
The second infrastructure skill "position experience": "When stationed in the training room assistance position, the training speed of the heavy-duty operator's special skill training is +30%, and if the special skill is up to level 2, the training speed is additional +45%. "Belonging to the first specific level of trainers for heavy duty crews, this is very practical. Usage advice: Rainstorm is preferred when specializing in two skills, and Star Bear is preferred for other specialization levels.
Heavy rain enters the training room
Second, the potential of the ascension: a light and strong small shield, it seems that she personally built under the guidance of the Vulcan. The event gives the cadres a rainstorm, be sure to pursue full diving. Rainstorm is a very special "group camouflage" countermeasure card that can help us skip class. The key to opening the skills as soon as possible lies in deploying them as soon as possible. Comprehensive Potential Recommendation: Redeem a full dive.
The potential of heavy rain is enhanced
Third, training suggestions: heavy loaded cadres rainstorm, hard work and complaints. For Dr. Meng Xin, the rainstorm is the most critical agent of "truancy". Most tricky bosses can be cleverly resolved through her group camouflage. Examples include Talula, Faust and patriots in the main line, such as Andorne and the Emperor's Inner Guard, who have been active twice recently. Her appearance rate in key battles is surprisingly high, recommended: ★★★★★ ;
For the regular team of PhDs who have already formed, the rainstorm is still a good choice for us to get through the high difficulties. Especially in the EX level at the bottom of each activity level, the rainstorm can almost shine. She didn't need too much training, and she didn't even need to refine the second level, and the level 7 skill of the first level could meet the needs. Comprehensive recommendation: , ★★★★★ high practice degree of rainstorm necessary degree: ★★
For the doctors who are super highly trained and many heavy-duty cadres have mastered two or three specialties, the rainstorm does not represent the extreme intensity in a certain field, but provides a very scarce countermeasure. The strategic position of the group camouflage among the cadres is the same as that of the "stealth" in the enemy camp, and the face is full of two words: invincible. As an exclusivity countermeasure officer, rainstorm recommendation degree: ★★★★ , fine level 7 can be, meat pigeon mode recommendation degree: ★ ☆.
