Nautica Review: The Mana-Boosting Healer That Breaks The Speed Limit
"Nautica isn't just a healer; he's a battery. With a 33% mana chunk to neighbors and a massive heal, this Construct is rewriting the rules of tanking. But is he immune to the Owl menace? Read our deep dive."
Special Skill

Pathfinder's Compass
- Recovers 45% health for all allies.
- Increases the mana of nearby allies by 33%. (This has no effect on other Nautica characters. After a character has received 5 direct mana additions from Special Skill during a single turn, all subsequent direct mana additions done by Special Skills will have reduced power on that character.)
- Nearby allies get +40% mana generation for 4 turns. (Affects only mana generated from matching shields or mana gained by the defense team at the end of their turn.)
- The caster and nearby allies get +50% critical chance for 4 turns.

Release Date

Release Date
About Release Dates
This shows the release date of Nautica in Empires & Puzzles. This date determines eligibility for various game events like Hero Coach (2 years after base hero release) and Visiting Outfitter (549 days after release for the first costume).
Hero Coach Info
Hero Coach Date
How it works
By utilizing the Hero Coach, you can reach the Maximum Ascension of a Legendary hero instantly. This bypasses the requirement for rare 4★ Materials (like Alpha Aethers and Damaskus Blades) and ignores the traditional leveling time.
Visiting Outfitter Info
Visiting Outfitter Date
No Costumes Available
This hero does not currently have any costumes in the game. As a result, they do not appear in the Visiting Outfitter events.

Mana Optimization Strategy
How it works
By default, Nautica has Average mana speed, requiring 10 tiles to charge. Equipping troops with a Mana Bonus can reach specific Breakpoints — the exact percentages where your tile count drops — allowing your hero to fire their special skill faster, with less tiles. Additionally, as a Wizard, this hero can unlock a +2% Mana Bonus through Emblems (Talent Tree). These bonuses can significantly lower the troop level required to reach these breakpoints.
