And it’s Zephyr! Specifically, Funnel Clouds seem to resolve before attenuation is applied. I’ve been successfully oneshotting acolytes with my heavy slam Melee Duplicate Magistar across both rounds.

I haven’t tested if this a property of the blast interaction with tornadoes, or if non-blast heavy slams (which are rare) also nuke enemies before attenuation applies. I also haven’t tested if this is specifically a result of Melee Duplicate shenanigans with tornadoes or if, say, Doughty builds such as the Ruvox would also work.

Zephyr stays winning!

      Zephyr will never be nerfed, at ~1% play rate she definitionally can’t be disruptive to other players… right? 🥹

          I noticed the infested phase of the Apex also wasn’t susceptible, although phase 1 absolutely is (after armour removal at least). I wonder what causes that!

          Possibly for the 60 eyes Fragmented, it could be the DPS limit being set lower. It also has >2x as much HP as an archon.

          Incidentally, Zephyr does have a neat setup for the 60 frame where Silva & Aegis can easily apply and maintain large heat procs by creating heat tornadoes through slams.
