I just got magni today and will emblems him after he is maxed.
Which is the better way of embleming magni? Defense or offense path? Share your thoughts
Offense only.
Defense means nothing with Magni’s poor defense stats.

Well, my question for you is if you plan on pulling for Kingston as well? If so, save the emblems for Kingston, if not I’d go with Magni and go down the attack track simply because his defense is garbage and won’t make that significant of a recovery with emblems. He is meant to be destructive, so make him more destructive I say.

I don’t think i’ll be lucky to get kingston. Instead i love magni
I’ve got mine 3 days ago too, and I’ve pushed him to 3/70, so…same dilemma for me, 'cause I’ve pulled Kingston yesterday with 3 EHT 
The stupid thing about fighters, is their Talent can only ever be used upon death.
So you almost want a fighter to die, in order to have a chance to use a talent that is otherwise 100% never going to have an impact on the battle.
Therefore, don’t pump up a fighter’s health or defense, IMO. Let them die as easily as you possibly can, so that maybe they get to revive.
Pump up Magni’s attack. 7 of 20 emblem nodes for a fighter can be used to boost attack. Be sure to hit every one of them.

Very sound reasoning. I didn’t actually think of that. Currently I have my emblems on delilah, but since Grimble was announced I have been debating on whom to transfer them too and I think, because of your reasoning, I’m going to give them all to Magni.
Thanks. The possible exceptions I would make, would be Boldtusk and Delilah, as they can heal themselves upon their revivals. So you might want them to have lots of health so that their %heal adds as many health points as possible when they come back from the dead. You might also like having lots of shields on them, so they can survive a first hit and still be available for your turn. And they also both don’t hit hard, nor hit with specials, so pumping up their attacks is furthermore not significant.
So the healing fighters could be viewed differently.
But the others, IMO, have a useless talent that doesn’t ever come into play except perhaps on death, therefore pumping up their health and shields actually works against their talent ever activating.
Could you imagine if Guinevere were a fighter?

Guin would be a nightmare if she were a fighter. Especially if you killed her when she was ready to fire. That would be broken as heck.
Magni def is not that bad, I mean yes his general stat is very low, but he has a buff that increase it to 63% more.
So defense nodes are not bad to take into account, Magni is designed to shot quick in order to increase his survavibility and he does it well as a fast caster.
Taking defense node will lead you to take, also, some attack boost which means Magni will be above 800 attack, a very good stat anyway.
The real question is more Is Magni deserv more than 7 nodes as a fighter ?

That’s why they gave her stupid wizard class, so that she wouldn’t be broken.
Guinevere is already broken in my opinion.

Almost, you can still kill her but it is VERY HARD. I hate when I come across her in a raid esp when she’s flanked properly it’s a nightmare.
I came across a team with Guin flanked by Kage and GM I was like nope not today and rerolled lmao
Which path to take on Magni node 8?
I don’t think the left healt bonus is very usefull but don’t know for sure what the impact of the right track ‘recueration’ bonus is. Is that he has an extra chance to revive?
Personally i took the left path which increased his health point, because i find if i choose the right path (which increase healing bonus) is kinda useless.
But take note that if you got magni costume, the
Reverse thing will be happen.
If on non-costume u choose the left path (which increasing his health point), then on costume version the left path automatically become increasing healing bonus (which is useless).
Ok thanks all. I don’t assume i would get the costume shortly so i’ll shall procédé with the health bonus.
For me because magni attack already strong in the beginning so i only choose embleming him with defense and health as priority (which are the weakest point of magni that need to be buffed).
The emblems path i choose same as VR365 suggested
