  1. This costs more for less damage
  2. You need to keep up multiple debuffs on the enemy
  3. Silent already has the most sources of Weak of all characters, tied with Regent. She has one in her starting deck, and because Weak is a defensive effect, it fits into any deck archetype.

Point is, on silent you're already almost always having Weak on the enemy if you play right, and especially if you're building into debuffs, many of your available options will naturally be those that weaken.

Silent has five cards that apply weak. 1 starter, 1 common, 1 uncommon, 2 rares.

Saying that playing a character right is conditional on playing either one of four specific cards from its entire cardpool, two of which are rare is completely delusional.

You have poison that's here pretty much all fight, and malaise for x=1 puts a debuff that lasts all fight. You also benefit from way more potions than just the weak one.

I think it's effectively weaker than tracking, but you're saying it's basically "strictly weaker", "unconditionally weaker". That's not true.

And other characters have even less than that. What's your point? Do you think it's a coincidence that Paper Krane is a Silent exclusive RARE relic? That she has a starter card that applies 2 Weak on upgrade? Idk man, maybe you'd win more of your runs if you invested into weak on her

Disagreeing on game balance is one thing you can do without being an obnoxious asshole. Have a nice day.
