Different unusual sights to see in co-op are the starter characters. Kaeya is extra widespread than the opposite two however rarer than different DPS characters. A big portion of the participant base doesn’t like Amber, and Lisa is somewhat unwieldy with out constellation upgrades. Regardless of that, her C6 isn’t relevant in co-op conditions.
