Sir Nicholas

Last Updated: November 18, 2024

Sir Nicholas Overview

Sir Nicholas, a Void legendary from the Sacred Order, was Raid’s first ever fusion champion. Harnessing the power of the north, he shields his allies with polar protection, makes them unkillable, and sends ice coursing through the veins of his enemies with his boreal blade.

Similar to Emic and Maneater, Sir Nicholas offers players the ability to build Unkillable style teams for areas like Clan Boss and Iron Twins, while also being a strong carry for PVE progression and Arena. His Polar Protection [A2] is an AOE attack that places Shield buffs on allies equal to 30% of the damage dealt. The more enemies hit, the stronger the shield, making it especially effective against Spiderlings or bosses with minions, like the Ice Golem. His A1 brings a 50% chance to Freeze a target, which cannot be resisted, meaning you don’t need to build for Accuracy. Overall, being one of the few champions with Unkillable abilities keeps him relevant to this day, even in late game content like stages in The Cursed City, Secret Rooms, or faction limited posts in Siege.
