Best Shell for Nahor

Codex of Magic

Effect: Before the owner acts, unleashes the owner Animus' full potential making their next skill cost no CD and increasing their SPD by an additional 10% for 2 turn(s).

It enables Skill 3 → Skill 3 double-cast rotations, giving him 100% uptime on Freeze and DEF Down when running high SPD and Effect ACC builds. It is also crucial for PvP and high-end PvE where first strike and lockdown = win.

 

Modules & Matrix Effects

Main/Sub Stat Focus

• ★★★★☆ Speed (SPD): First to act = first to Freeze.
• ★★★★★ Effect Accuracy (ACC): Essential to land [Block], [Freeze], and [DEF-].
• ★★★☆☆ Crit Rate/Damage (for hybrid builds): Viable only if sub-DPS role is needed.

Recommended Matrix Sets

• Swiftrush (12-set): Massive SPD boost, ensuring Nahor moves first every round.
• Bulwark (8-set): Reduces damage taken when controlling tempo.
• Swiftsmite (6-set): Extra damage based on SPD—great in PvP burst builds.

 

Team Comp

DPS	DPS	Debuff	Sustain
Rosa	Xinda	Nahor	Lingluo

• Rosa: A multi-hit sub-DPS / controller, Rosa can delay enemy actions via Turn Meter manipulation and add pressure with follow-up hits. Her kit synergizes especially well with Nahor’s Freeze, creating layered denial.
• Xinda: Xiada serves as the team’s burst initiator, building up damage through “Soul Flames” and then unleashing a DEF-Down-inflicting AoE nuke. Her early DEF shred paves the way for Rosa and synergizes with Nahor during Freeze-locked windows.
• Nahor: The team’s initiator. Opens with AoE DEF Down and Freeze, while also removing buffs and applying Block. His kit enables safer burst windows and denies enemy momentum, making him ideal for both PvE and PvP.
• Lingluo: Lingluo keeps the team sustained with strong healing, cleanse, and Immunity effects. She ensures survivability during control rotations and protects allies from debuffs or status locks.

Strategy:

In both PvE boss fights and PvP encounters, the key is to maintain control uptime and action advantage. Open with Xiada’s Soul Flame burst to soften enemies, lock them down with Nahor, and let Rosa shred through the frozen targets while Lingluo protects against retaliation. Proper SPD tuning is essential—Nahor should act right after Xiada, and Rosa should follow immediately to optimize damage windows.

 

Best Use Cases

DokiDoki
This stage features a buff-heavy boss that relies on stacking effects to ramp up pressure. Nahor’s full buff dispel and [Block] debuff completely shut that down, while his AoE Freeze interrupts boss turns, creating safe windows for your team to burst during [DEF-].

PvP
In a fast-paced speed meta, Nahor can open with Freeze and DEF-, setting up the board for quick eliminations. His [Block] debuff also cripples buff-centric comps and prevents passive-based Shell triggers, giving him control over the flow of battle.

 

Conclusion

Nahor embodies the art of disruption—crushing enemy buffs, freezing key targets, and creating powerful windows for your team to strike. Whether you're aiming for PvP lockdown setups or control-heavy PvE comps, Nahor shines alongside AoE burst units and reactive supports who thrive on momentum shifts.
