Nergigante Ambition [P]

Ascension 3
Heals all allies by 10% of their MAX HP when attacking enemies under a [Hex] debuff. If there are multiple Champions on the team with this skill, only one will activate. This skill will not activate on duplicate copies of this Champion, if this particular Champion is dead.

Increases this Champion’s DEF by 5% each time this Champion receives a hit from an enemy under a [Hex] debuff (stacks up to 30%).

Skill texts, cooldowns and book upgrades are the game's own. "Damage" is the skill's multiplier (for example 4×ATK = four times this champion's ATK, before the target's DEF) - see how damage works.

Suggested build

A starting point worked out from R. Nergigante Archer's own skills - not a hand-tested build. Each line says why it was picked; your gear and team decide the rest. See what stats each champion needs.

PvE

Stat priority

  1. SPD - More turns means more hits.
  2. ACC - To land [Decrease SPD], [Hex], [Stun] - a resisted debuff does nothing.
  3. C.RATE - Up to 100%: every crit multiplies the hit.
  4. C.DMG - How much a crit adds - stack it once C.RATE is near 100%.
  5. DEF% - The skills' damage scales from DEF.

Gear set combinations

  • Ignores DEF on every hit, plus DEF - the all-round damage build.
    Gives: DEF +15%, Savage effect
  • C.RATE and DEF ignore in one set, with SPD to act more often.
    Gives: C.RATE +10%, SPD +12%, Lethal effect
  • Heals from its own damage - survives long boss fights.
    Gives: DEF +15%, Lifesteal effect
  • Three 2-piece sets when your 4-piece pieces are weak.
    Gives: DEF +15%, C.RATE +12%, SPD +12%
  • Keeps the damage and adds ACC for the kit's debuffs.
    Gives: ACC +40, SPD +5%, Savage effect
