Astra is just too complicated. She’s a very good unit, arguably top 4 DPS. The problem is that she has the lowest floor in the game so someone trying her out will do 60% less damage than someone who knows how to play her.
Add to that she’s not a character without Astra. And add to that she does 30% worse without Lighter.
I liked Astra as a character because I just like the bodyguard trope in general, but she’s not fun to play or worth the effort when you have hard but better results characters like Yanagi or Yi Xuan.
