never grinded her out on pluto, but I did nab her prime at one point exclusively for eidolon hunts. I’m not really sure what other uses she has that other frames can’t do better. Energy Regen can be done so many ways (I’m a fan of Nezha w/ Synth Fiber and Equillibrium), and healing kind of isn’t really all too critical - content is either too easy to warrant it, or too punishing for it to make a difference.
I like her for solo steel path stuff. She’s got an armour strip, solid dr, energy sustain, heal to get out of pickle and a subsume slot for a damage buff. Is she the best for that? Not even close. Yet she’s fun to play and I only wish DE gave her some more base duration on the abilities.
If they changed Link to be channeled, that would fix most of the problems.
More duration is probably the better route to go. EV usually won’t refill energy if somone has an active channeled ability according to the wiki. Mend & Maim and Effigy seem to be the only exceptions.
It won’t solve much imo. Trinity is just a little old in her design and that shows (simple effect without much interactions), at the time we had no adaptation so Trinity’s blessing was one of the few sources of DR so it made sense for it to have a short duration for more engagement. As the time passed the designs have evolved and nowadays supports in general have a lot longer base durations. Harrow can recast his rotation once every 1.5 minutes or so, Wisp has no need to recast her stuff whatsoever and so on, yet Trinity is still adhere to an old design which feels a little forced and clunky with a 25-30 seconds rotation.
As a result her gameplay is 4-3-2 into 25 seconds of action into 4-3-2 on repeat and pressing an ability doesn’t have much to it. You can’t really play without 4 and 3 active, you need them both at the same time, and you don’t have any conditions to press it. For example Harrow needs shields to have longer duration on his buff, or you can hold his 4 to save someone if you feel there might be a need.
She’s the number one choice if you’re helping out low MR friends in the early game. They get to do all their stuff and even more of it because suddenly they have ALLL the energy, and they don’t feel useless as they would if you brought your AoE nuke frame to “help” them.
