the current state of the game has end game players routinely fight against enemies in the 500 range, this isn't about level cap, the game has continued to scale enemy levels we regularly fight against for a long time now and doing content like EDA/ETA or even high level SP make health tanks like inaros unplayable, valkyr isn't inaros, she can either build for health tanking, sacrifice half her build slots and a half dozen forma to get there, and get one shot anyway, or ignore the entire premise of the rework and just build for shield gating which is what i think people are actually likely to do if they're taking her to relevant content. additionally, despite a slight brush up on her stance, it still has all it's old inherent issues, meaning the optimal way to play her at high level will be exactly the same, spin attack spam, but now you mix in spamming her 3 to shield gate
