Is there ANYTHING that Lann has that Bella doesn't, or are we swordsmen forever doomed to be overshadowed by swordswomen?

Spears hit harder. Vella has more survivability. Not sure which sword user gets more DPS, will have to ask later after we get her and her percentiles. Vella's looking like a really good overall character though, like Kai.

Vella is more of a defensive dual wielder while Lann works for a more offensive and powerful approach, in the end both of them can survive if the player knows how to use the characters. Typically Vella is more for defending and counterattacking while her allies take on the bigger boss during the distractions she can make.

Vella is better by iron rule of mmorpg content release.

Her attacks are already a combination of swords and spears, and the animations are much better aesthetically.
Lanns attacks just seem a bit too much of Gliding Fury/Lightning Fury/Furious 7/Radical Fever (?)
I just view her as a Kai with boobs and swords.

As a rule of all games in the world ever, newly released (female) characters are always overpowered*. So, I haven't looked at Vella's skillset yet but I can probably see a whole lot of similarity in skills, just a differently tuned playstyle.
But oh man, that infinite combo she has is complete bullshit, no matter how Nexon tries to balance it.

Fiona was worse than Lann when she came out.
Evie was terrible when she came out.
Vella was terrible when she came out.
Lann was better than Fiona when he came out.
Karok was average when he came out.
Kai was a post-revamp Evie with more range, mobile firing, plate armor, invincibility frames and the strongest attack in the game when he came out.
Just sayin!

Looking through some videos and taking in experience from guildies, I made a guess to Vella.

I think she wastes stamina for normal attacks. :C

Infinite combo...
So it's like an even stronger Hurricane 3960?

I kind of remember Karok being OP when he was out.
