AI Analysis

Overview

Usable from early on, though it doesn't stand out in any particular role (combat power: below average, base work: below average). Use it as an early-game workforce or breeding relay.

Its Partner Skill, Kuudere, is an activatable skill.

Hard to justify keeping it in a permanent slot. Use it as a stopgap base worker and swap it out once you land a better Pal. Available from early on, so securing it early makes your early game much easier.

AvailabilityEarly GameWild Lv 4–15

Low Upkeep
Night Shift

Strengths

Appears in the wild from Lv4, so you can secure it early on
Food 1 is in the lightest bracket (2 or less), so it barely adds to feed costs at the base
Nocturnal, so it keeps working through the night without sleeping

Cautions

Base stat total of 300 is in the bottom 25% bracket (330 or less), so it's not suited as a main combat unit
Work suitability tops out at Lv1, so you'll want to swap in a better Pal at the base

Recommended passives

Combat

Legend Musclehead Ferocious Lord of the Underworld

To build Nox for combat, prioritize damage passives such as Legend and Musclehead. Adding Lord of the Underworld on top is recommended to further boost the Dark moves it can use at matching element.

Base

Artisan Serious Work Slave Workaholic

To build Nox for base work, stacking work passives led by Artisan is recommended. Add Workaholic as well to slow its SAN drain.
