Does Cyclonus really rely on his sig?

Hello!
I recently pulled a 5* Cyclonus and I was wondering whether it is worth upgrading him to rank 3 despite being unduped, or if I should just save the sparks for another tactician. I think his dupe only increases his damage in a single aspect, which isn’t a real game changer... And, like most of you, I do suffer from a lack of T4 basics. However ranking him up will benefit my top bots (Tantrum, Tronus and Galvatron) in missions... So does Cyclonus really need his signature ability? Or is he good even without it? I would love to hear your opinions.

I concur.
While his Sig ends up doing substantial damage later on once it gets up above Sig 50, it's just bonus damage. Everything else about the dark field is intact and functional without being awakened.
One of only a handful of bots worth ranking without being awakened.
To be honest, it’s one I’d like to see reworked further down the line. Maybe incorporate something to do with his discipline ability or something as that’s a unique part of his kit. It could be expanded upon further. But as of now, he really doesn’t need it
Great bot.
Can you name other such bots?
Arcee, mv1, wasp, jazz, og meg...
Grindor on the otherhand needs his sig to deal some real dmg
Arcee and Jazz, yes. OG Megs and Mv1? Not really.
I think Rhinox and Shockwave fit into that handful.
All good bots without dupe and I don't think the dupe affects the way they play too much at all.
Og Megs, Og Prime, MV1, Ultra Magnus, Thundercracker, Arcee, Prowl, Dinobot are all good bots without the dupe but really shine with it.
Probably missing a few but my patience ran out
Anyone that isn’t Motormaster, Grimlock, Starscream or Thundercracker
Ironhide is good without sig too.. his crit dmg buff and burns are still pretty strong I think
