To the people who like to vertically invest into characters (like C2R1 level, not C6+) and don't swipe (too much), has SO changed your view on that sort of investment?
I don't go for cons as I would rather have more toys to play with, and Spiral Abyss was never hard enough for me to want to invest deeply into a character. In Stygian Onslaught, while the encounters are harder, I feel like having characters more suited to the bosses trumps investment in cons (C2 of anything wouldn't be as useful as a C0 Kinich or Emilie vs Lava Dragon), so my view on investment hasn't changed.
