Totem earns a 2.1/5.0 rating because her utility is severely outclassed by almost every other debuffer in the game. Her primary strength is her AoE Decrease Defense, but at only 30%, it is the weaker version of the most essential debuff in the game. Her 2.1 AI rating reflects her inconsistency; she often prioritizes her mediocre A2 buff-strip over her more useful A3 AoE. When compared to F2P staples like Warmaiden, who provides the 60% version of Decrease Defense and is farmable, Totem loses value immediately. She lacks the base stats to survive in high-level content and her Poison is too smal
