🏋️ Who Will Prevail: Lesley vs Zetian (Base Damage Only)

Lesley Skill Base Damage Summary (No Items)

  • Passive (Lethal Shot): 100 (+100% Total Physical Attack) True Damage

Analysis: No Item Showdown

Lesley relies heavily on physical scaling and Criticals via Lethal Shot and Fatal Bullets, delivering True Damage and snipes from a distance. Zetian, on the other hand, deals raw burst AOE damage with high base numbers.

  • Sustain: Lesley has regen via energy and camouflage mobility, while Zetian lacks healing.

  • Damage Application: Lesley is single-target, while Zetian excels in team fights.

  • Conclusion: On a straight 1v1 using base skills, Zetian wins due to higher consistent AOE damage and CC.
