Nagi Gameplay and Playstyle

Nagi is a 5-star Wind-type ranged Destroyer who functions as a Stagger Gauge Expert while also being a Sub DPS, and a Debuffer. She excels at filling enemy Stagger Gauges rapidly while debuffing enemies and opening up damage windows for the whole team. Her entire kit revolves around a passive mechanic that grants unique buffs whenever her skills are used, with each buff enhancing her abilities with additional effects that stack into each other naturally during a rotation.

Her Special Skill launches enemies into the air while dealing Wind DMG, making it both a damage tool and a crowd control setup for teammates to follow up. Her Switch Skill quickly moves her close to enemies and triggers an explosion on landing that deals Wind DMG which is very useful for maintaining AOE on enemies during tag-in rotations without losing momentum. Her Ultimate pulls nearby enemies together, deals Wind DMG, and shreds both their Wind RES and DEF, making it an important setup before the Main DPS comes in to take advantage on the debuff duration.

What makes Nagi stand out from other Destroyers is that her kit does more than just fill the Stagger Gauge. The combo of Wind RES shred and DEF reduction from her Ultimate means she's actively amplifying the whole team's damage output every time she comes on field and not just creating stagger opportunities. This makes her especially effective in Wind teams, where the resistance reduction stacks directly with Wind Affliction to push damage even further. She pairs incredibly well with Esther, whose burst damage windows align perfectly with the openings Nagi creates.

Nagi Skills

SkillsDMG TypeDescription

God-killing Slash

(Basic Attack)

Wind DMG

Swings her fan to unleash a series of tightly compressed blades of wind and charges at the enemy. She then quickly steps back and causes flowers to bloom, rendering enemies Airborne with a powerful shockwave and dealing Wind DMG.

Holding the Basic Attack button on her 4th Hit or Evasion Counter triggers Heavenly Orbit and deals Wind DMG.

Nagi can also be controlled while using Heavenly Orbit, and Divine Seduction accumulates in her fan.

Alluring Bloom

(Special Skill)

Wind DMG

Causes a surge of wind at the enemy's location, rendering the enemy Airborne, then she crushes them with powerful downdraft, dealing Wind DMG.

When Alluring Empress's Reign is active, she detonates condensed wind to deal bonus Wind DMG.

Concealed Spirit

(Switch Skill)

Wind DMGAppears near the enemy and vanishes into a swirl of flower petals. Upon landing on the ground, she detonates the flower petals, rendering enemies Airborne and dealing Wind DMG.

Abyss's Approach

(Ultimate Skill)

Wind DMG

Generates a flower bud from a seed of condensed wind, drawing enemies in. It then blooms violently, rendering enemies Airborne, dealing Wind DMG, and inflicting Wind Affliction.

When Alluring Empress's Reign is active, flower buds bloom, decreasing the target's DEF, and after full bloom, the flowers drop seed which deal bonus Wind DMG.

Divine Seduction Manifestation

(Passive Trait)

Passive

Nagi Skill Upgrade Priority

Skill Priority

(1st) Ultimate Skill

(2nd) Special Skill

(3rd) Switch Skill

(4th) Basic Attack

The Ultimate Skill should be the first one to upgrade since it's her most impactful skill, pulling enemies together while shredding their Wind RES and DEF, which directly boosts the entire team's damage output every time it's used. Next, prioritize the Special Skill since launching enemies airborne deals big Wind DMG and sets up follow-up opportunities for her teammates. After that, upgrade the Switch Skill as the explosion on tagging in renders enemies airborne while dealing Wind DMG contributes to her Stagger Gauge pressure during rotations. Basic Attack can be upgraded for last because she can already group enemies even if her basic attack is low level.
