>Don't even get me started on Hydroid. He is an even worse position than Oberon, and you only use him for the giggles.

Hydroid has it better than Oberon. Hydroid still has end-game use by using Undertow in static defense missions like Interception or Mobile Defense (to some extent) to remove attackers from the majority of the defense phase. He can still stunlock bottlenecks by spamming his tentacle rape ability and can be used for farming if you use the augment.

Oberon is kinda just there. His abilities are nothing spectacular. His entire being is suffering from an identity crisis, from fluff to crunch.

He's touted as a paladin, but comes out more as a druid that never really takes one side, its like the developers had two ideas for him, but couldn't agree on one so they kitbashed him together.

His stats don't know what side to take. He's a watered-down Excal, while still possessing the basic energy pool of 100, despite him suppose to be an all-rounder. At the end of the day, he's a warrior who can't really stand his ground due to his inability to facetank, and he's a druid who can't really do a lot of druid things since his energy pool is sorely lacking for his role.

DE either needs to buff him to be an actual all-rounder or finally decide what they want Obi to be.
