lots of people are saying that the crown of spring is super op, but I can't see how to effectively use it since the percentage bonus would be useless once at max stats and it only gives one of each synergy. How do I use it to its max potential?
The buff gives your whole team passive dmg reduction that is the strongest part of it in my opinion.
We would have to look how many must have synergy items you can replace and weight it up. Haunted is pretty much worthless endgame, sabotage not a must have, lucky is ok, 6/6 tenacity gives you +30% dmg but I never aim for it, getting a guardian without abillity replacement that is quite powerful if you got one tizik or seras who got very good abilities, magic just a tiny bonus, you get the aquatic which is a must have that likely safes you one item slot, you likely want most of your monsters to have tactician anyway so yes that might safe one.
Now we went for the hollistic team improvements but does a single monster that got all the synergies punch harder than the sum of its parts? A lucky tenacious? Hardly any dmg upside prima facie. I really can not see how.
I really like the sound of the elemental synergy especially early on when it can effectively half or reduce your damage to nothing but it seems quite tricky to max out where it is infinitely more powerful than on the 2nd level. All the elemental monsters seem quite squishy and harmonious pendant as mentioned above somewhere is pretty bad
