Introduction

In this article, we will explore the comparison between two popular damage dealers in the game Summoners War: Chronicles - CASSIE, the dark cowgirl, and KARAMBIT. These monsters have been a topic of discussion among players since the release of secret dungeons. We will delve into the damage output of both monsters and determine which one reigns supreme.

Testing Methodology

To compare the damage between CASSIE and KARAMBIT, I conducted a series of tests in the Naraka dungeon to mimic real-life scenarios. I formed a team consisting of Helia as a solo unit, providing an attack buff, and either CASSIE or KARAMBIT in the third damage slot. I carefully observed and analyzed the damage output of each monster by using their basic attacks only. I excluded charge skills from the test to ensure a fair comparison and avoid the influence of defense scalings and provoke effects.

CASSIE vs. CLEAVE

I first tested CASSIE’s damage against CLEAVE in eight runs. Taking into account the variations in defense break and damage taken debuffs inflicted by Helia, I found that on average, CASSIE dealt 3.36 times more damage than CLEAVE. Although I couldn’t provide the exact DPS numbers due to the RNG nature of Helia’s debuffs, this comparison with CLEAVE allows us to draw a conclusion about CASSIE’s performance.

KARAMBIT vs. CLEAVE

Next, I conducted the same tests with KARAMBIT, comparing its damage to CLEAVE. After eight runs, I discovered that on average, KARAMBIT dealt a staggering 4.87 times more damage than CLEAVE. This result showcases the immense power of KARAMBIT in terms of damage output.

Conclusion

Based on the tests, it is clear that both CASSIE and KARAMBIT outshine CLEAVE when it comes to damage output. However, when directly comparing the two monsters, KARAMBIT emerges as the victor, providing approximately 30% more damage than CASSIE in real-life scenarios.

Considerations and Recommendations

Although CASSIE falls slightly behind KARAMBIT in terms of damage, she is still a valuable unit and can be a useful addition to a team when paired with KARAMBIT. For example, in the Naraka dungeon, having both CASSIE and KARAMBIT can prove effective during the minion phase. Both monsters can ignore various buffs that prevent damage, such as shields, allowing for easy eliminations of minions. It is advisable to equip them with Swift or attack speed sets to continuously deal damage to the minions.

Furthermore, it is important to note that CASSIE has the potential to surpass KARAMBIT in terms of awakening levels and overall stats. As a Dark element unit, CASSIE can be awakened up to level 15, while KARAMBIT can only be awakened up to level 9. As players summon more Dark element monsters, CASSIE can gain additional power at a faster rate, closing the gap between the two monsters.

Future Testing Opportunities

In the future, I plan to conduct more tests, including one with Galleon, who can provide both attack buff and defense break. This will provide a more consistent testing environment and allow for further analysis of damage output in Summoners War: Chronicles.

In conclusion, while CASSIE is not a direct replacement for KARAMBIT in terms of damage output, she still has her strengths and can be a valuable addition to certain team compositions. Understanding the individual abilities and potential of each monster is crucial for optimizing your gameplay in Summoners War: Chronicles.
