Intro

Tong is a 6✦ Echomancer of the Ranger Class, with the Physical Element. His ability to passively summon tiny artillery drones as his basic attacks make him perfect for Summons based synergies. His versatility allows him to deal high, consistent single target or AoE DPS over long periods of time by making his active skill much stronger against huge mobs of enemies. Or, instead, by focusing all of his artillery on a single foe. His damage can take quite a bit of time to ramp up, however, and he cannot enable the more powerful physical synergies by himself.

Pros & Cons
Pros

  • The more enemies, the stronger the AoE;

  • Good Single-target damage;

  • Auto skill increases Phys damage on target;

  • Passively generate skill charges;

  • Basic Attacks are all AoE.

Cons

  • Skill cost increases the higher the amount of enemies;

  • Every other target in the area reduces the damage from each hit;

  • Lacks defense, becoming a sitting duck most of the time.

Tier list comment

Tong possesses ultra-long attack range and large-scale attack are very helpful for clearing clutter and intercepting flying objects. He can also restore a number of active skills, in addition to being a versatile addition during early game. Later on, he suffers with a lack of team synergy to fit in.
