[Top 5 Wednesday] #17 - The Forgotten

First off, I had to say sorry for no Top 5 Wednesday last week. I was pretty busy, especially with the Legend of Jack Guide.

Anyways, here is a new week so a new Top 5! A few weeks ago, I talked about overshadowed monsters. This week, I am going to talk about monsters that just forgotten! I am going to limit to 5-6* Hatcher monsters. The sad part is that these monsters don't even get mentioned when people list off the most useless monsters.

#5 - Scheherazade


Starting off the list is Scheherazade. Besides being a super hard name to remember and say, she hardly gets any use. However she is very nice on paper and a viable pick in Bishamonten. She is too much of a support monster which always gets forgotten in people's minds. She doesn't get to be higher because people rolled for Sinbad when the Event Series came and some players got her as a participation prize.

#4 - Salamander


#4 is Salamander. He probably forgotten because people actually wants to forget about him. Even though he has a Null and a Slayer, no one plays the dungeons he is good for like Sylvasaur. And even if they did, they are probably farming for Hakwa which he is terrible at.

#3 - Independence


The Queen when the game just started with the ton of Fiend Bosses in the game like Origa, Nurarihyon and Sylvasaur. Now she is in the obscure pile since Nulls are more important than Slayers. Even people will have more use for her Asc version since it has a Null Warp attached to it.

#2 - Thor


Although Thor is a relatively recent monster in NA, most people have him collecting dust in either their boxes or the hatcher servers. Of course he gets mentioned once or twice when Murasame gets brought back. But since she comes like every 6 months, Thor never gets to see the light.

#1 - Brahma


Taking the #1 spot is Brahma. You hardly hear any mention of Brahma in any conversation. He is not super bad as a monster and of course not that great either. He is good for Kushinada but people will talk about how mediocre Hanzo and not this guy. Finally he is a Power monster without great merits of being one so he gets put in the "Power Type monsters are the worst in the game."

How Was It?


There were a lot of JP only monsters I wanted to add like Nezha or Nachos but the monsters on this list are even sadder since they had some glory when they were released.

I might change up Top 5 Wednesday in the future so be on the look out!

  1. @gagther here - I really have to disagree about Independence I feel like her evo is decently usable especially in comparison to a lot of the other early game slayers

    1. She is still usable, but with how the game has moved away from the old days of direct contact to bump combos as the primary damage source, she is severely outclassed in her best dungeons like surtr, origa and nurahyon by the newer monsters.
