Niamhe, Spear of Nyresa Overview

This guardian of the Mistwood wields a sacred shield, embedded with a powerful jewel capable of forming a barrier that even the strongest warriors struggle to break. But don’t let her protective appearance deceive you – with her Spear of Nyresa, she can strike down your most vulnerable enemies in an instant, using their downfall to recharge her team’s abilities faster. Niamhe is a Void Legendary Defence champion from the Sylvan Watchers faction.

This champion is primarily focused on protecting and healing your team, though she does have a single-target attack that can reduce ally skill cooldowns when she secures a kill. Starting with her A3, Niamhe heals all allies and applies Block Debuffs and Ally Protection buffs. This powerful support ability is great against bosses like the Demon Lord and Chimera, as well as most content, keeping the team sustained. To further mitigate incoming damage, her A1 applies Decrease Attack and Decrease Crit Rate to a target, helping allies withstand potentially devastating hits if those debuffs weren’t active.

Niamhe brings a unique mechanic, starting each round by placing Block Damage on all allies, and again on herself when her HP drops below 50%. This makes her an ideal Ram Form tank in Chimera and a valuable counter in Arena against enemy Nukers who might outspeed your team. When it comes to damage [A2], if her target is below 50% HP, she ignores 50% of their Defence. If she secures the kill, she reduces all ally skill cooldowns by 2 turns, allowing for quicker cycling of powerful abilities – particularly useful in areas like Faction Wars and Cursed City.

Additionally, she provides a Shield buff to allies based on the difference between her MAX HP and the target’s MAX HP, and against bosses, it scales with her Defence. This adds another layer of protection to her already strong support kit. Overall, Niamhe is a versatile champion, bringing a blend of protective support, impactful debuffs, and cooldown reduction potential, making her valuable in various encounters.
