So you’re saying that you judge monsters solely on skills? Demote hookuai to SS then. Demote Hornet to SS+. Demote Eisul to SS-. Every aspect of a monster judges it. One part might be bad, but if another works out, then it sorta balances. Lemme defend Nikasia because she is a META monster. Not good, but very meta.

Trait. The thing you said is perfect about her. The fact that her trait is awesome, her speed is godly for a supporter and she can team NER is already S+. Then you have an AoE blind, then ET(anticipation but she can sorta evade that due to her trait and if u pare w/ a taunt monster), and daze+sunburn. That’s the exact same thing SS saika can do but just a bit worse. Then we have AoE PER and random negative effect. If I’m mistaken, doesn’t SS+ O’Reilly have that? And that same trait but worse because Nikasia counters the other meta monsters? We have ally NER and double dmg, which pairs up incredibly with attackers and even weak-ish attackers(not artifact). AoE sunburn with 0cd. Team NER and precision. Single PER and total blind. Her skills aren’t great great, but they’re pretty good. Her trait is just godly. Rez block with area dodge paired up with her skillset makes her a force to be reckoned with.

Next up, we have the legendary Rez block. I’d argue this alone on a monster like her is just groundbreaking. She literally counters the 2 best competitive supports: Wyrmlad and Raggie. She also counters Sammy, which is just the icing on the cake. This also counters monsters like Nisael(who if you didn’t notice is only phenomenal because of his revival). Overall, Nikasia is definitely SS- worthy. What else is in there? Stake? Hydratila? Jasastur? Yeah, she crushes it.

Nikasia SS- when you get to her. Just a good monster.
