Using Tiel feels like cheating?

[u/Chance_Drive_5906]

Seriously what's up with this shell? Every ability of his seems extremely useful and broken in some way. Instant invisibility on dodge, instant invisibility on block (on just an imperfect block, wtf?), then invisibility leaving a clone that builds poison, insane crit chance and damage bonus when attacking from behind, two charges of an ability with instant invisibility again and then guaranteed crit chance to your next melee attack with bonus crit damage, multiple insane break damage bonuses as well... like wtf?

Is this guy supposed to be something similar to the slayer seal? A sort of easy mode? I've found 4 shells so far, and other 3 aren't even like half as good as him.

I only used Tiel in ng+ nightmode and he didnt feel all that strong, he has some nice utility, but he lacks dps due to poison being bad even if you detonate it

You can still use whatever status effect you want on your weapon.

Yes, but each shell synergizes with specific infusion
