YES finally a video with her

From the Lets Play video it kind of seemed like Aurox never left. I was wondering if your shields are depleted, do you lose some ability associated with Aurox or do you just receive a movement speed buff.

i think you get none but it looks like when shields are depleted Aurox kinda looked like the stars and stuff

I think your melee damaged is greatly reduced too.

All i can say is… WOW this character looks sooooooo cool XD cant wait to try them out!!

She take goth to the the next level

Yeeeeesssssss

I’d play her and Orendi

For some reason she reminds me of Tetsuo from Akira.

Been having fun with them, but every so often when I land my grab it puts them behind me or off to the side instead of dropping them in front of me, which is really frustrating because I have to basically go looking for them again. Love the character but I hope this gets fixed soon.

I had initial hesitations about playing them, but after I’d played most everyone else nearing the end I tried them out since I had earned both a taunt and skin from loot packs. I was pleasantly surprised to find I loved them. They’re not really the emo/goth teen with a demon pet duo I thought they’d be. They have some cleaver banter and are really easy to pick up and play. Their stealth isn’t really great though; it’s basically just to land a quick hit at the start or end of a combo. It isn’t really like Deande or Mike who can literally sneak around. Maybe I’m using it wrong though…

Use it to escape.

Honestly i I find it absolutely adorable. She has such a cutesy voice to contrast how punk she is.

Running makes a lot more sense considering you can add time (like 6 seconds?) to its duration. I’ve never been great with steal characters lol.

This was a character I was not interested in, but after playing them they are my 2nd favorite lol

I’ve played Shayne and Aurox a bit now and I always notice in the end that I have somehow healed a lot, and not just me, but my teammates too.

I’ve looked through their abilities and even checked my items to see where the healing effect is coming from but can’t find it.

Are there other Battleborn that can make it so their teammates heal with damage done or something? (this is the kind of effect I was looking for).

Not really complaining about it, just curious.

If you choose the helix upgrade that grants S&A an Overshield when you Fetch an enemy, it will count as “Healing Given”.

Yeah, it was weird when I first saw that. I’m not complaining though, it’s a weird mechanic. Not sure if it’s intentional or not but.

oh, alright. That makes sense as I use that ability alot. Does it bounce to others too? The last game I played I was the only one that did any healing, but the others had received healing.

Thanks for the reply.

Is Shayne&Aurox a viable hero? I’ve played with level 50+ and <10 and all players seem to have little to no impact on the match, minus they’re low kill rate-and high death rate. She seems to have a fetch move and that’s about it, except for the ult. Am I just getting inexperienced players? Is she tanky enough? Are players misusing their invisibility? They seem to forget about the boomerang once we leave the airship, put their head down, hit a fetch, chase with invis, get into deep, then turn to run and die. What is a good S&A kit strat for one that needs some help, I.e., every S&A player on Xbox One. I’ve had difficulty with her on capture mode, but every other situation she seems to flop.

Yeah you’re just getting inexperienced players. I have my Master of Shayne and Aurox title and can confirm she’s a little tricky to use but can be very rewarding. My tendency was to have high deaths, but also high kills.

I make sure to add the slowing to stealth strike and the stun on fetch for hunting other heros. Stealth strike is also a great way to GTFO in a pinch, don’t forget to utilize fleet footed when you have the chance, sticking around when your shield JUST broke is a bad idea, don’t get greedy. This goes hand in hand with the fact that most Rouge-based gear has a health penalty.

Also don’t forget her boomerang exists for getting in that little bit of ranged damage. Perfect to getting some hits on enemy accelerators or thumpers. I also like using stealth strike to get in close to the thumpers so I can beat the crap out of them while spending a minimal time slowed by the rockets.

If you have good aim getting criticals with both the boomerang and punches can be devastating. Can practically drop a miko in a single stun by hitting him in the head. I’ve had cases where I’ve dropped the shield on everyone across the lane from me when my shield was still 80% shield because of my boomerang and jumping around a lot :stuck_out_tongue:
