tbh even if you're faster or slower, the Generic Empress team doesn't end up helping you later on (In my view, you can agree or disagree, idrc) especially if your only initiator goes down for the count. I had to switch out to a different MC (Water mostly, Earth occasionally) 'till I get better ninja's for wind, Especially since I want to actually main her. In my server I can't, and it's just starting to get pretty ridiculous.
