Scarlet actually doesn't need her UW because the reason she's so good for PVP isn't tied to her damage output whatsoever.

The reason people used to say you need your UW for PVP is because of the extra rune slots they provide. Now that Class UW's exist, quite a few heroes can get away with using that instead. Some heroes even still use Dragon weapons instead of their UW's because of the stat load out on Dragon weapons being different to what you can slot on them runewise.

So like Sonia, you will see a lot of people running her with a 5* Dragon Weapon in PVP because the Max HP, Crit, Crit DMG and Atk Spd are more beneficial than what her UW does for PVP purposes. Likewise for Scarlet you will see people using similar weapons or the Class UW because the bulkiness is more beneficial than the extra attack (As Scarlet is frequently used as a tank). With Scarlet it depends on how you are running her in Arena.

That being said, all 3 heroes you mentioned do not need their UW's. Frey kinda does but it's not critical as the places you'd use Frey it's not making a huge difference.

Who are your other heroes?
