It's too small to be anything for the upcoming DLC.
Probably a balance or stability patch.

Maybe Hit's ultimate is usable again?

The patch before, pretty well broke it, even with stamina breaking your opponent. It would not land unless I got extremely lucky.

Ouch. Super Black Kamehameha needs to be buffed because you can escape it fairly easily if not stamina broken unlike its powered up version.

Just a question; what platform do you use? I just logged onto mine (XboxOne) and no update for it. Still 1.08.01 for me.

Ah, that would be why.

Hit's Ultimate still won't connect. :(

I break the stamina. I have 5 bars of Ki. I hit the Ultimate with the NPC right in front of me....!
And I hit nothing but the air between the characters, followed by the NPC recovering, then attacking Hit. :cry:

I can try seeing if it lands better post-patch in a little while. I seem to vaguely remember having some trouble with it, too (though I think it was more that it didn't do a lot of damage, but I cycle through skills quite a bit, so I could be wrong).

With Hit's power up, and I imagine Cabba's Super Soul as a Super Saiyan 1-3, it does quite a bit of damage. But the actual range of it seems to have been shortened even more than what it already was, making it about useless.

Hit's Tokitobashi is useless since it was added. Not only its range makes it almost impossible to hit the opponent, it consumes 4 bars and the damage is quite low. You can use any other melee technique instead that also consumes 4 bars and you will deal more damage.

My main Time Patroller is 100% melee, so I obviously tested it, and while it is nice visually and "sound" speaking (I love that sound it plays just when you deliver the final punch!), it's not a technique you should pick when playing serious.
Goodbye friend. You are weak, so you must be destroyed!

I don't. I just like using Hit sometimes for PQs and Dragon Ball grinding. But when his Ultimate is next to unusable...

You dont even need his ult. When you max his Pure Progress his basic strings do damage equal if not more than the majority of ults in the game.

I know, its the principle of the matter.

Besides, there's a "cinematic" feeling to ending the fight with the character's ultimate, ya know?

For offline players using Hit to grind and such, I'd recommend using one of his infinite combos where (Xbox controls) you press five Xs, two Ys, then step dash towards or around your opponent and repeat. It erases health bars very quickly in most cases.

Whatever you do, though, absolutely never use it online. It's one of the cheapest tactics you can use against other players, so I very, very strongly discourage it.

If you're playing offline, using Hit isn't the way to go imo. I'd recommend using someone along the lines of Vegito Blue, Rosé, or Merged Zamasu. Vegito for strike, Rose for balance, and Zamasu for Ki blasts. Of course that's different from Local Play/Cpu Battles.

I like switching it up and not limiting myself to only a handful of characters.

So I feel that SSB for our Saiyan CaCs will be a stamina drain form like the Frieza Race, Majins, and Nameks. Seems like that would be the best bet in terms of balance. I hope it's set up like regular Super Saiyan though

Golden Form does not drain stamina though. Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan should be a transformation for melee, otherwise it will be a useless form.

It's only useful on Awoken Hit, Pure Progress level 2 buffs the damage big time and there is a specific point in Hit's combo string that stuns the enemy for the perfect amount of time to land the move.
On avatars the move is completely useless.
