Nicole Demara Skill Priority
Nicole's talents priority should focus on her Special Attack as it increases the DMG and Daze of this skill. Her Core Skill should also be upgraded, as it increases the DEF shred she provides.
| Skill | Priority | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
 core skill | Upgrading Nicole's Core Skill enhances the DEF reduction debuff that her abilities inflict. This should be upgraded together with Nicole's Special Attack. | |
 special attack | Upgrade Nicole's Special Attack first since it increases the DMG and Daze of all of her Special Attack's variations. | |
 assist | There is no harm in raising Nicole's Assist. But, upgrading it has a lower priority compared to her Special Attack and Core Skill. | |
 chain attack | While you won't use Nicole's Ultimate, you will often use her Chain Attack. | |
 basic attack | You do not need to immediately increase the DMG and Daze of Nicole's Basic Attack since she is a Support unit. So, this is a low-priority upgrade. | |
 dodge | Barely used by Nicole in combat, so her Dodge is a low-priority upgrade. |
