Review

Nao is an attempt at a new buffer support. Nao’s kit functions around building up (among other things) an ATK% buff applied and stacked via her special skill.

Nao’s buff has significant overlap with other buffers (e.g. Sky Layfield, Seo Yoon, Awakened Shin Jia), but her high cost paired with her inconsistent buff mechanics prevent her from seeing any use. There is no reason to use Nao over the alternatives.

Pros & Cons
Pros

- Decent assortment of buffs.

- Can act as an offtank with serviceable stats for a frontline supporter.

Cons

- Struggles to compete against stronger supporters who provide the same buffs and then some, with better consistency.
