Is Power Creep Justified?

The fact that Jaffar can safely initiate on mages is far more useful than a random Pass skill.

Hey, let's not forget Takumi being able to pass trees and worse aerobatics. Now if only he could pass rivers and mountains and it was always active he'd have a slightly better niche.

Takumi's refined weapon doesn't have Pass - it trades it for terrain immunity and Warp Powder at >50% HP.

In terms of actually being useful, I still think it's far less useful than being able to safely attack with no fear of counter.

That's fair, yeah.

It’s a doubleedged sword, in a world without powercreep, make a 10+ Severa and you might never consider buying a red orb again.

 

But with powercreep it makes all units feel vestigial.

I think it's fine. No powercreep means Skills and stats just remain mediocre and gives less incentive to pull for anything new~
