Summary

In this video, WG breaks down the strengths and weaknesses of six different Battle Pass partners, helping players make an informed choice. Key partners like Nyx, Priscilla, and Anta stand out for their synergies with specific characters and playstyles. Nyx is highlighted as the most versatile, offering boosts to damage, healing, and card draw, while other partners like Priscilla and Anta excel in more niche roles.

Takeaways

• 😀 Nyx is considered the strongest Battle Pass partner, offering a versatile mix of max HP boost, healing increase, and damage boosts, along with powerful card draw manipulation.
• 😀 Nyx is the only 5-star partner that can be used with 4-star characters like Nia, Casius, and Mika, making her an excellent choice for building around multiple tiers.
• 😀 A major drawback of Nyx is her ability 'Hurricane,' which costs 4 EP, making it one of the most expensive abilities compared to other partners.
• 😀 Awin, another top-tier support partner, offers permanent damage reduction and stacking effects based on enemy attack intentions, which can rival Nyx in certain scenarios.
• 😀 Priscilla's abilities focus on providing extra damage and healing, especially against broken enemies. Her passive requires a strategy focused on breaking enemies for maximum value.
• 😀 Priscilla works well with characters like Min, who specializes in breaking enemies, but may not be ideal for non-breaker characters like Arin.
• 😀 Slaya increases crit chance and crit damage, making her an excellent choice for crit-focused builds. She also applies a 'Vulnerable' debuff, boosting subsequent damage against enemies.
• 😀 Slaya's potential is maximized with crit-dependent characters like Veronica and Theo, who benefit from both her crit boosts and the Vulnerable status effect.
• 😀 Helen provides shield buffs and unique mechanics, such as retaining a portion of shields for the next turn, making her effective for tanking in prolonged fights, particularly against hard-hitting bosses.
• 😀 Saraha increases crit chance and crit damage while applying 'Vulnerable' for additional damage. She is ideal for crit-heavy characters but may be less valuable if the character already has a dedicated partner.
• 😀 Anta is best suited for Tresa mains, as her abilities increase both HP and attack card damage, which are highly beneficial for a Tresa-focused team.

Q & A

Who is considered the strongest battle pass partner according to the analysis?

Nyx is considered the strongest partner due to her versatility, unique card draw ability, and effectiveness across multiple characters such as Nia, Casius, and Mika.

What makes Nyx’s skill set stand out compared to other partners?

Nyx can discard up to three cards and draw the amount discarded plus one, allowing up to four cards of draw. This helps players fix bad hands and offers great flexibility in combat.

Why might Nyx be preferred over other five-star partners?

Unlike other five-star partners that are tied to specific characters, Nyx can be effectively used with various four-star and five-star characters, making her a more universal and long-term investment.

What is a potential downside to using Nyx?

Her special ability costs 4 EP, which is relatively high compared to other partners whose abilities usually cost between 2 to 3 EP.

How does Awin compare to Nyx as a support option?

Awin provides permanent damage reduction and healing when facing up to three enemies, making him a strong defensive option. However, Nyx offers more utility in terms of card draw and damage boosting.

What makes Priscilla a good choice for certain players?

Priscilla boosts HP and damage, and provides extra damage against broken targets, making her especially effective for characters like Min who can easily break enemies.

Which characters benefit most from Helen as a partner?

Helen is best for Marbel and Magna, as her kit boosts shield gain, defense-based damage, and allows part of the shield to carry over to the next turn.

What are Slaya’s strengths as a battle pass partner?

Slaya increases extra attack damage and attack card damage upon drawing, making her an excellent match for offensive characters like Theo and Veronica.

Why might Saraha be less valuable compared to other partners?

Saraha’s bonuses focus on crit chance and crit damage, which are more beneficial to bullet-specific characters like Luke or Renoa. However, those characters already have dedicated partners, reducing Saraha’s overall utility.

Anta increases HP and damage by 8% and enhances attack card damage when generating cards, making her an excellent choice for Tresa or Kron-focused setups.

Players should pick based on preference or their current team needs. If they are aiming for dedicated five-star partners later, Nyx is the most versatile interim choice.
