"arts guard" with 2 unconditional true damage skills lmao

[GldenRetriever]

I use nearl for the free slot helidrop. She's still safe in my book.

[demilung]

I just love that our sources of True Damage are: 2 great warriors of inredible heritage; some mysterious entity that Mon3tr is; the Lord of Fiends arts; the power of a Seaborn god; Młynar's contemptuous gaze; a really good water canon; Cliffheart's skills with a rope.

"Arts guard"
Vivian is crying in the corner

[Larfas]

This is before we get any arts guard module, the gap will grow only bigger

[animeoutlands]

This Video Genuinely put a smile on my face. Siege and Nearl were my first 6 & 5 stars that I got at the start of the game, and have been mainstays on my team since. I already have a max pot Nearl Alter and I cant wait to get Siege

[PlatinumKrown]

Nearl will always be special because she's the design that got me to play the game in the first place. It took a few months to get her defender version, and about a year to get the alter by sparking on a limited banner, but I still got her.

[SilentSpirit]

A good showcase to separate the uses for Vina & Nearl. I tend to use Nearl more for her S2 these days, but thanks to this I’m reminded that her S3 could still hit ridiculously hard.

[xLuisx]

1:20 calm down, shu, i know the rice fields are are fertile, but don't get *that* excited over it! Jeez...

[NazguLMC]

The main crime HG commited against Nearl is that S3 true damage works only when she's (or her sun) blocks an enemy. And that they couldn't change anymore.

[ainuruyaqeen]

Vivi can hit multiple enemies, with a fcking true damage

thats the cheat

[brianchu]

My only real gripe with NTR S3 is the targeting when multiple enemies are present, which Vina much improves. Dmg can always be supplemented, buffed, etc.

[kyiwintun]

Honestly niches like being a free slot has more value in this day and age of waltuh choke full of dps units, and esp for a ling user

[tmhanif]

Ah my poor M9 NTRK, it's okay you still #1 in my heart forever~

[threehoo]

i'd be interested in seeing how they compare defensively, since nearlter's def buff is quite nice but vina only has a one-time tremble (but also meat shields)

[xWeiss_]

Saber has arrived, just missing the "EXCALIBUR" voiceline

[marielcarey]

True meta is using Nearl S1 Siege S2 for infinite meta

[Wampi.]

VFX aside, the SFX so underwhelming, just give her typical anime sword swing swing or something man, the S3 SFX is like whipping wet noodle sound instead.

[Ixcez]

Personal take is that Vina is actually pretty good as long as her S3 is up able to hit multiple targets with her true dmg, but it has a long CD of 50 seconds. Her kit also works in a way that you will rarerly be able to use her at 100% effectiveness and with Mont3er's recent release she seems to be a straight up improvement to Vina with only a 15 sec CD, honestly weird how a 50 SP S3 is barely stronger then a 15 SP S3 skill. So I think for a lot of people because they know that in 6 months Mon3ter will be out with a similar kit but a much better uptime. She's also part of the standard banner while lappland alter a limited unit is coming out in a few weeks.

When it comes to Vina vs Nearl I pretty much think that Vina is better vs single target but she is leagues better vs multiple targets. But Nearl can bring something other then true dmg which Vina can't.

[meenty]

Yeah, what it doesn't show is Vina atrocious cycling.
