Clorinde's release has been met with mixed reactions, with some finding her disappointing due to her high ping reliance, short infusion time, and lack of interruption resistance, despite her strong potential as an electro DPS. While she excels in overworld exploration and has good self-healing, the issues with her skill's cooldown and the need for precise timing to maximize her damage output have led to some dissatisfaction.
Here's a breakdown of the reasons why some players find Clorinde disappointing:

Ping Reliance:
Clorinde's gameplay is heavily reliant on low ping, particularly when executing her N3E (Normal Attack 3, Elemental Skill) combo, which can be difficult for players with higher ping.

Short Infusion Time:
The duration of her elemental infusion from her skill is short, and being interrupted or knocked down during this time can significantly reduce her damage output, especially when combined with her long skill cooldown.

Lack of Interruption Resistance:
Clorinde lacks natural interruption resistance at C0, making her vulnerable to enemy attacks during her skill's infusion window, which can disrupt her combos and damage potential.

Bond of Life Mechanics:
The Bond of Life mechanic, while integral to her kit, can be cumbersome to manage, especially at higher pings, as players need to time their attacks and skill usage to optimize her healing and damage output.

Comparison to Arlecchino:
Some players expected Clorinde to match the power level of Arlecchino, who was released recently, and feel she falls short in comparison, particularly in terms of raw damage output and ease of use.

This is how they make sure older phones are obsolete, while still being "supported". 15 Pro series, 16 series and the upcoming 17 series are the only ones not to chug to death.
