What to level, what to park

Level, in this order

  1. Inferno Array Ultimate Skill
  2. Heartwarming Flame Active Skill
  3. Flame Soul Power Passive Skill
  4. Ember Dust Auto Attack

Inferno Array is Nicole's Ultimate Skill, so start there. Heartwarming Flame comes next because it heals two allies at once, then Flame Soul Power for your Warlocks. Her Auto Attack goes last, even though it heals a little too.

Tenacity can't be levelled: it unlocks at its star requirement and stays fixed.

Skill check

How much the squad loses if this one skill is left at level 1: win-rate points against strong squads, with the hero's lost damage in brackets. Each column is every hero built the way they usually are at that Sanctuary level. It only counts fights against other squads, so it's one part of the order above, not the whole story. The biggest in each column is in bold.

SkillSanctuary 6 max Lv 2Sanctuary 20 max Lv 8Sanctuary 30 max Lv 30
Ember Dust-0.2 (2% dmg)+1.5 (8% dmg)+4.2 (17% dmg)
Inferno Array+0.2 (1% dmg)+1.4 (11% dmg)+5.0 (32% dmg)

Gear

Upgrade first: Weapon Gloves

Her heals scale with ATK, so upgrade Weapon and Gloves first, then Chest and Boots. Normal gear isn't tied to a hero. Aim for UR in all four slots, strengthen to +60, then Promote.

Research that helps

Warlock Synergy and Warlock ATK techs.

  1. Hero tree, Warlock techs (Lab 5-21): ATK +15%, DMG +15% first, then HP +15%, DEF +15%. The cheapest big boost for this hero.
  2. Squad tree for the squad this hero fights in (Lab 9-13): ATK, DEF and HP +5% each, plus Physical DMG +5%.
  3. Hero tree, all-hero techs (Lab 23-24): ATK, DEF, HP and DMG +10% each for every hero.
  4. Offensive or Defensive Tactics (Lab 20-25): +30% ATK, DEF and HP in PvP. Offensive if you attack, Defensive if you mostly guard your city.
  5. Warlock Mastery (Lab 30, late game): Warlock ATK, HP and DEF +15% each, DMG +10%, and Synergy techs that grow with every Warlock hero you field.

Skip the monster-only techs (Blight Slayer, Boost RES) unless this squad hunts monsters.
