A Nails tank whose main pattern is applying Nails with S3 Annihilate Heretics, then using S2 You Are Cleansed of Sin to add Bind and Attack Power Down and hinder enemy actions.
Core Mechanics
5 Nails via S3 then S2: S2's Coin Ⅰ inflicts 3 Nails, and Coin Ⅱ inflicts 3 Bind next turn. If the target has at least 5 Nails, it additionally inflicts 2 Bind and 1/2 Attack Power Down. S2 alone cannot reach 5 Nails, so apply "2 Nails next turn" with Coin Ⅰ of S3 on the previous turn.
Aggro: On use, S1–S3 increase that slot's Aggro next turn, making him more likely to be targeted in Focused Encounters. His Defense Level is a sturdy Identity Lv +5.
Bonuses below 50% HP: S1 Drive gains +2 Coin Power, and the Defense skill Foolishness…! gains +2 Final Power.
S3's healing: Coin Ⅱ of S3 heals HP equal to 50% of the damage dealt on hit, +3% per Nail on the target.
Combat passive — Obsessive Hammer (4 Wrath Resonance; unlocked at Uptie Ⅱ): At Combat Start, if his HP is below 50%, removes 1 negative effect and grants 1 Fanatic, 1 Attack Power Up, and 3 Protection. It requires both 4 Wrath Resonance and HP below 50%, so it is hard to trigger on purpose.
Support passive — Highest Honor (3 Wrath Resonance; unlocked at Uptie Ⅲ): While in backup, the 1 ally below 50% HP with the lowest current HP gains 1 Attack Power Up and 1 Protection (plus 1 Fanatic for N Corp. Fanatics).
How to Use
Open with S3 to plant Nails, then on the next turn use S2 to land the enhanced debuffs at 5 or more Nails. Pairing him with allies who inflict Nails (such as N Corp. Identities) makes S2's condition easier to meet even without S3. In Focused Encounters, draw attacks with Aggro and hold out with his durability and S3's healing.
