[@ShuraCS]

in my humble opinion, Nearl's S2 should be her main skill. Simply because she becomes a 1* operator but instead it gets added and she actually becomes a 7* operator that can kill a lot of things and then herself in the process so you have to redeploy her again.

[@shaneconley4517]

Agreed. Her block count makes it tough for her to hold lanes with S3 compared to other cornerstones and there are better sources of true damage. But no other unit can provide a powerful helidrop without costing you a deployment slot, so her S2 is pretty awesome and unique

[@professionalbreeder7672]

Agreed, her s2 is awesome and it's passive definitely comes in clutch in some situations

[@lucasmitchell9027]

@@shaneconley4517 I found that using her s3 on a defensive manner is actually extremely useful. Think about it, you get a massive tank stick for 30 seconds with just 40 seconds of cooldown. It's specially good to tank the new sniper enemies, as it doesn't care much about the corrosion either. You're supposed to play her more like an offtank with S3, while s1 is the lane holding/backline dps skill, and skill 2 is the heli drop one.

For me, I can definitely see her S2 being a fusion of both Gravel and Projekt Red: The shield bubble from Gravel, the helidrop stun and defense ignoring attacks of Red. The only thing keeping her from becoming a bona fide Executor Specialist is her normal length deployment time and cost.

[@frostyhotcocoa7809]

I just need you to know that this guide singlehandedly saved me from instantly in chapter 10. I watched this guide yesterday, and then, that evening, went to do chapter tens final boss. After his first hp bar, he spawns what can only be described as "the rave from hell" worth of enemies that have STUPID arts and phys resist. And they kept wiping my line because I couldn't kill them before the cannon charged and wiped me out. So, to the drawing board I went, to try and find true damage. "Where am I gonna get true damage plus good block without eating up 2 deploy slots with kal?" I thought to myself. And then a literal lightbulb turned on in my brain, I had an anime flashback moment, and your guide, talking about nearl s3, popped into my head, and I was off to the races. So God speed you beautiful lad.

I m3'd s3 and m1'd s2. for the 4 shields. for IS I would recommend building 4 stars if you want team flexibility, like Jaye was a beast when I borrowed him in IS1, cheap, heals, does damage. etc. if you m3 s2 you go from 25 seconds to 27 seconds and 130% attack to 160% attack. which is SOMETHING, but I considered it rather marginal since she's working in a team and unless you are doing a try hard clear what you NEED are the shields.

Soooo basically Nearl Alter is to the Dreadnought archetype what Andreana is to the Deadeye archetype, operators who's entire purpose is fixing the innate wonkyness of their archetype.

@@hexerin he's prolly talking about fartooth cuz afaik andreana kit is also kinda whack

[@twinblade273]

@@hexerin It's not really an apt comparison because all deadeye snipers do different things. Andreanea basically trades range for a super high attack steroid that allows her to hurt heavy armor enemies. That being said, deadeyes in general don't actually struggle versus armor that much due to their high attack stat, Andreanea's just the best anti-armor deadeye.

[@markopusic8258]

@@hexerin Well what are the innate issues of the Deadeye archetype? Super slow attack speed, targeting issues, and to some extent DPS because the attack may or may not be enough to compensate the attack speed, all things Andreana improves upon compared to the previous members of the archetype. Andreana's talent gives her attack speed so her attack interval becomes 2.4sec rather than 2.7, and her S2 raises her attack way beyond 3000 as well as gives her a new targeting condition that guarantees she won't waste shots on low life trash mobs she couldn't finish off, meaning she's guaranteed to get more shots on the targets you actually want and it's guaranteed to hit hard. Don't get me wrong I never said Andreana was super OP or anything, I said she was built to fix the wonkyness of her archetype, because that's exactly what her kit is trying to do. She is way more consistent of a unit in what she wants to accomplish (in her case, support DPS with that massive attack and the 40% slow) than Ambriel, Firewatch and even Fartooth. Yes, even Fartooth. She's technically stronger, but depending on the skill you choose on Fartooth she will struggle with either DPS, attack speed or targeting, sometimes several of them at once, meaning it will always feels bad in some way when I deploy her. (especially the S3, seriously the sp cycle is so fast she only gets 8 shots per skill use, shots she can easily miss if you're not super careful with her positioning)

[@markopusic8258]

@@hexerin Remove the HP threshold and she doesn't function as an operator anymore. She's not supposed to kill enemies that's the point of her S2, her role in a squad is to weaken elite enemies thanks to her massive attack and the on-hit slow. That's why the gimmick exists in the first place, to ensure she will get a better chance to actually hit those stronger enemies instead of wasting repeated shots on trash mobs. That's why I said she's a support DPS, she's not meant to kill enemies, she's meant to cripple them at range to alleviate pressure from your frontline. If you remove the HP threshold, she will suffer a similar fate to Firewatch S1 and Ambriel S2. At E2 40, M3, both of them hit for around 2k damage, which sounds decent, but given their garbage trait of prioritizing the lowest DEF enemies, all that damage and CC in the case of Ambriel tends to get lost on the wrong enemies. As I said, Andreana isn't OP, far from it, if anything she fills a fairly niche role in Arknights, but she's a consistent unit if you let her fulfill that niche, something that I cannot say for the other 3 because of the drawbacks inherent to the Deadeye archetype.

Plus, just bring Nian & Heidi to increase Nearl to 3 block and then she can benefit from Whislash's talent. How's that for great synergy? If you use Nearl S2 inside W's range, then when Nearl stuns them W's talent will increase the damage she can deal. Wow! The shields on Nearl S2 are pretty great, but only 4 shields won't last the whole skill duration. Don't worry though, you can use Roberta to give Nearl more shields!

[@ntrpotato6675]

As someone who has also M3'd all of her skills and have her at max level, they're all pretty useful in their own scenarios. I got her mainly for the S3 but her S2 is just as good in my opinion. S1 is actually way more useful than I expected as a deploy and forget skill. I think the main problem with S1 is that there are other operators who you'd pick instead of using S1, the most obvious being Blaze and Thorns.

[@Axterix13]

With Blaze, I think it'll depend. For NL-S-2, for example, Nearlter S1 clears the top lane faster than Blaze S2, and this saved me time on the run. But conversely, her low defense and lack of that emergency heal Blaze has, means she is more vulnerable, and I used Myrtle S2 to heal her. Really, the issue with Blaze is more "Does Nearlter provide enough to warrant M3'ing her S1 when you have access to Blaze?" The answer to that will likely be no for a lot of people. And if the question is, "Which do I master first?", the answer is Blaze, as situations Blaze can handle but Nearlter cannot will be more common than the reverse. But if you do have both with their respective skills M3'd, it'll come down to the situation which you use. Thorns, though, yeah, he also hits hard, fast, and has longer range still, plus higher defense, block 2, and regens when not attacking. Though, really, Thorns is the go to op much of the time anyway, so you aren't really competing against him, as he's locked in for some lane. You're competing for another slot.

[@BellBOYd128]

I super wish there was someone offering a service to sew a plushie batch so I could order my default team all together. Or even just someone who can make tiny clothes so I can get plushies of the animals and then dress them as my team.

[@bobwasowsky270]

sounds like a great reason to get into a new hobby, I made my crystal lizard(dark souls) plushie that way

[@BellBOYd128]

@@bobwasowsky270 indeed it would, but sadly the nerves in my fingers are permanently damaged to where holding a pen can be a complicated task and I use speech text for typing cuz I’d be too slow on thumbs. So this particular skill set is lamentable for me.

[@tempota7792]

I'm sorry about your condition, but I must say, imagining those little plastic animal toys that come in those thick, clear, plastic bags in little rough sewn Op outsides is really hilarious.

[@tempota7792]

As for my pick, I'd prob go for Skadi's Pink Orca in her saucy beach outfit, and a yellow Shiba strapped down with an obscene amount of plastic cutlery. And a truffle.

[@MrFish-sm4ks]

Guess horse are fast at running AND dying! Very insightful video

[@LAMEN_THE_BLAND]

Wow, guess I really missed out by taking a break while that event went on. Damn.

[@rzwei]

Already maxed her out, happy family

[@HellecticMojo]

I kinda hate bomb drops since my favorite aspects of tower defense is the relative AFK nature of it, but I guess I gotta s2 since I already have Blaze and Surtr.

[@faishalazhar0408]

I'm that people who say Nearl is underwhelming on a VIDEO SHOWCASING LV7 SKILL NEARL goddamnit!! What am I doing 6months ago so much shame on me. Gotta wash myself

[@FrostSylph]

My eyes don't peel off when I see true damage because it ignores def or res, they peel off because it ignores dodge.

[@danielk.english6004]

"i am not immune to hot lady knight" - yep, that's how i feel about the nearl girls. also i seem pretty vulnerable to scale girls as well. :')

[@amigosmundousa2246]

Mastery both skills 2,3 personal opinion used her skill depend of the stages, I did same with Mountain S2,3 right now happy with results testing NTR new event.

[@DylanoRevs]

Nearl may not be a good alter, but she is still a good 6-star. I'm satisfied i E2'd her. Though...i usually do it for the rewards...and the operator records.."

[@littlejohn8435]

She is the very embodiment of the Dreadnought guards. She powercrept the existing Dreadnought guards by just the utility of her gameplay.

[@darkomihajlovski3135]

What makes her a bad alter? Shes completely different then ther originla self and its a great change story wise

[@littlejohn8435]

@@darkomihajlovski3135 Maybe because she is not broken?

[@amal-_-8360]

@@littlejohn8435 and when alter is broken it also becomes a bad alter?

[@fogheta]

@@darkomihajlovski3135 She's 'bad' (she's not) cause she doesn't really carve out a unique niche to fulfill, unlike the top broken tier of limited ops (Ch'en, Skalter & Ling), so she naturally has less value. Main issue is really that dreadnought guards are just inherently crippled by being 1 block with low def, and doesn't have the immortality and insane damage Surtr had to overcome that issue. Her uniqueness can also be fulfilled by other existing ops, but they do it better (with the exception of deployment slots, hence her S2 is really her only viable skill in endgame)

[@safiwren7812]

nearlter's TALENT is literally red's s2 this is so sad can we get projekt red alter

[@TombstoneThe]

>so you dont have to too late.

[@lawgx9819]

She's basically what skadi should've been minus the true damage lol

[@NotHeitu]

Hearing and seeing lore Skadi’s feats, I would expect her to have some skills or passive that ignore an amount of armor.

[@amal-_-8360]

the only hope left is if the module upgrade make her redeployment ~30 sec

[@bachelorforlife3202]

Same bro I did it too. M9ed her. I mostly used skill 3. But I leaning towards skill 2 just for extra deployment XD

[@dimasnurrizky8757]

Are you somehow related to sam o nella? Because i swear to god watching this video remind me of his style so much

[@Mr_Rhodey]

On the subject of Margaret and Maria playing hide and seek: Does it really count as finding them if you are blinded by their incandescence? Cheers!

[@HiImYii]

well you cant really find them if you cant see them

[@MrJohnthegamerHD]

You CANNOT Resist Lady Knight

[@michaelwidodo9006]

Oh, i thought that Nearl's S2 is the obvious choice as it's the one used in CC and Monster is the better true damage dps

[@Figamorf]

You convinced me to M3 the second skill

[@solarknight3942]

I’m so excited to use her since I got her in a free roll

[@Delphineas]

So Skadi needs a buff! To become as lovable as Willy!

Gravel doesn't have to stay on the field though. You can also bring justice knight.

This makes me mald that i only joined in late July and missed her banner. I guess she won't be back until like 2024 :(
