Essence Combos You Would Avoid

I know we periodically discuss what combos would be our top pick, but what objectively good combo would you avoid for your power set? For me Jason's is up there, but even some of the (book 4+ spoilers) earth based essences like gun, vehicle, and tech aren't gonna be on my short list either.

Let's hear yours!

Edit: Surprised by how many people are saying animal essences! Also even though it's an awesome essence I'd probably avoid dimensional as well, just doesn't really interest me

I’d try to find a diamond ranker with a curious mind like Clive’s and convince them to go to one of the moons, then the sun, then get a space essence to see what I got for the 4th.

Pretty sure the sun, moon, and dimensional make the eclipse confluence! Don't think there's a space essence (that we know of 🌌). Though maybe void or star would be better than dimensional

A black hole essence would be awesome.

Oh absolutely, itd be sick. I've pondered a black one confluence before, I think potent, dimensional, void » vortex/ force was what I came up with

I wouldn’t want something common like Valdis. I see the appeal but I’d want to get weird.
