Nogoryo

Last Updated: June 4, 2025

Nogoryo Overview

Nogorya is a Shadowkin damage dealer who focuses on self-sustained AoE and single-target damage, offering solid progression value and Faction Wars damage, though with less utility than Genbo in high-end Arena.

Nogorya joined his Brother, Genbo the Dishonoured as a member of the Shadowkin Ranks! He was released as part of a mini-fusion event in August 2022.

Nogorya is an out and out damage dealer. Much like his brother, Nogoryo utilises the Increase Attack buff to enhance his kit. He hits more times on the A1, he can steal buffs on the A2 and he reduces the cooldown of his A3, the AoE attack of his kit. He also brings single target Block Buffs and Block Active Skills debuffs but remember you will need to bring accuracy for these effects and therefore probably not relevant in an Arena settings.

His passive will allow him to sustain his own Increase Attack buff whenever an enemy drops below 30% so when paired with other damage dealers he can be quite self-sufficient.

Overall his kit has reasonably decent Damage Dealer perfect if you need some extra damage in your Faction Wars. For arena he may be suitable early but he lacks the utility Genbo brings (ignoring unkillable primarily) plus he only has a single AoE with no Block Revive. He does however hit quite a bit harder than his Brother and is perfectly viable as an arena nuker up to mid Gold 5.
