Future water himes aren't burst gen heavy as well, so my bias also leans to Hercules in that regard, but the B frame wall is a bit bothersome in your case.

At least currently, my advice for new players is to basically get Asherah if they don't want to face endurance torture. Otherwise, it's better to drop water as an element altogether, the other elements are much better suited for dealing with endgame meta.

I'm counting on PF and elemental advantage to carry the day. I'm not trying to win any speed contests; I just need enough spike damage to clear the damage checks. If I had Shingen's Soul weapon this event I probably could've used her for instant Rage cancels. Joan is of questionable usefulness to me since her debuff is redundant with Cthulhu and Poseidon's. Asherah is nice, but I don't plan to Miracle ticket Water again.
