Nithgaest Hero Review: Beowulf's Bane or Just A Burning Lizard?
"Nithgaest arrived with a roar, a nerf, and then a redemption arc. This heavy-hitting lizard brings a unique 'Burning Touch' mechanic that punishes enemies for daring to strike back. We analyze if his mix of damage, counterattack, and passive utility makes him a must-have in today's cutthroat meta."
Special Skill

Rush of Flame
- Deals 335% damage to the target and nearby enemies.
- The caster and nearby allies counterattack with 150% of the damage received for 4 turns.
- Caster and nearby allies get Burning Touch for 4 turns. (Burning Touch: Each time the owner of this status effect counterattacks an enemy, the attacker receives 492 Burn damage over 4 turns.)
Family Bonus

Challenge - Beowulf
- Bonus for 1 / 2 Heroes:
- 75% / 100% chance to cleanse a random cleansable status ailment from all allies when this character receives damage from an enemy's Special Skill. This effect can activate only once per turn.
