Legend has it that as a mystical nine-tailed fox spirit among the yokai, Nine Tails once manipulated countless emperors with her unparalleled beauty and magical power, altering the fate of many dynasties. On the continent of Norheim, Nine Tails serves as a support character and has the remarkable power of casting illusions to deceive enemies, thus turning the tides of battle in her favor in seconds. Now, let's join Ignatius and see how Nine Tails' powerful support skills help the entire team!

Skills Info

Phantom Pact has 3 effects:

1. Effect removal: Cleanses all allies of Bite, Serious Wound and DoT effects. Therefore, teams with Nine Tails are strong against teams relying on Serious Wound or DoT.

2. Trigger skill chance boost: Increases the trigger rate of Trigger-type skills equipped by the team. Therefore, teams with Nine Tails are recommended to be equipped with Trigger-type Tower of Knowledge skills, as her support significantly boosts the stability of the trigger rate.

3. Recovery: Restores HP to one allied unit with the highest losses after an allied Immortal releases an Ultimate Skill. Therefore, the more frequently Ultimate Skills are used, the greater the healing effect is, which greatly enhances the team's endurance.

Skill Analysis: Life Protection pairs powerfully with Nine Tails' support skills, enhancing your team's survivability and damage output by restoring HP, reducing damage received, and increasing the trigger chance of Trigger-type skills.

Recommended Lineup

In the last article (link here), we introduced the Immortal Anubis, and his lineup that can deal insane burst damage. Now, Nine Tails can join Anubis’s team along with Wukong and Loki, forming a lineup excelling at dealing devastating damage while ensuring strong survivability. Pairing Anubis with Loki can stack the DMG Increase buffs, while Nine Tails can greatly boost the trigger rate of other allies’ Trigger-type skills, ensuring the team’s stable damage output. Plus, with Nine Tails’ marvelous ability to remove negative effects and restore HP, the lineup is able to counter enemy teams with Bite, DoT and Serious Wound.

Lineup Assessment

To ensure the accuracy of the assessment, the only three variables in testing lineups are Immortals, skills, and artifacts. Each lineup has undergone three rounds of testing, but only the median result will be displayed for a clearer and fairer comparison of different lineups.

In the following article, we will analyze the Nine Tails team against the currently most popular Poseidon team. The lineups are as follows:

Battle Report:

The battle lasted 1m 25s, with a damage ratio of 1:1.9.

With Theodora and Fu Fei's strong Recovery skills, the enemy team had outstanding defense and healing abilities, allowing it to have strong performances at extended battles. However, Nine Tails team still managed to get a notable advantage over the Poseidon team with its excellent survivability and damage output. Additionally, confronted with teams with Athena, the loadout combination of Anubis, Wukong, and Loki now can have a more balanced performance with greater abilities to survive and deal burst damage.

Summary

The new Immortal Nine Tails will undoubtedly get a foothold in the current top-tier teams. Her Phantom Pact skill combines three highly helpful support abilities - effect removal, trigger skill chance boost, and recovery, making her a multifunctional support Immortal. Additionally, her skills can be triggered when any allied unit uses Ultimate Skills, further boosting the team's endurance, survivability and DPS. This makes her a perfect fit for teams that cast skills frequently. With Nine Tails' arrival, Dark Dragon and Loki are also set to re-enter our lineup options.
