Leaf Slash |
The skill takes some time to execute. Considering Nagne's weak defense, one should reconsider rushing into the middle of a group of Oblins to use 'Leaf Slash'.
'Leaf Slash' interrupts, sending Oblins attempting a skill or an attack straight back to the start of the animation. Some opponents are immune to interrupt, though.
QuickStep Slash |
The number of targets Nagne attacks is 4 at skill levels 5 and 6. It is possible that he will attack 5 times at skill level 7 (unconfirmed).
'QuickStep Slash' can also be used defensively to avoid projectile attacks. In addition, Nagne gains a temporary buff that grants him +50% Evade.
Beware that the use of this skill potentially sends Nagne away from his buddies and into the company of the opposition.
Kiss of Death |
In order to have Nagne deliver his one-liner, use 'Kiss of Death' immediately after using another Active Skill. While Nagne is saying the name of the first skill, he will not call out 'Kiss of Death'. Then when (and if) Kiss of Death KOes the target, Nagne will say his one-liner and look cool.
Death No.5 |
'Death No.5' is quite flexible, able to distribute damage to a number of targets or concentrated on one tough opponent. In addition, the targets are also Stunned (if they are not immune).
The number of shadows summoned is based on the skill level. 3 shadows are summoned at skill level 2; 4 at skill level 5; 5 at skill level 7.
Sword Mastery |
Pray for the enemy |
I have not observed 'Pray for the enemy' activating with kills made with 'Death No.5'.
Striking a vital spot |
Forgetful Nagne |
Obviously, 'Forgetful Nagne' is not very useful if Nagne does not have high Critical and Jacky is not in the team.
I have not seen 'Forgetful Nagne' refresh any skills with 'Death No. 5'.

How Nagne's skills relate. |
Increasing the skill level of 'Sword Mastry' allows more chances for Nagne to perform a Critical and activate 'Forgetful Nagne'. Increasing the skill levels for 'Leaf Slash' and 'QuickStep Slash' allows Nagne to hit more targets, giving him more chances to strike a Critical.
'Striking a vital spot' increases the possibility to inflict Stun to 'Leaf Slash' and 'QuickStep Slash'.
With all these skills relating to each other, one possible method to distribute skill points would be to pick a favorite skill and invest in other skills based on that choice.
The other method is to invest in all skills at skill level 5, then put the remaining skill points in favorite skills.
Nagne is fun to use in SD-91's Raid. During the major wave of extras, Nagne's 'Leaf Slash' can hit many targets and Stun them (look for him in action in February's Screenies). Since he is hitting many targets, there is a good chance for 'Forgetful Nagne' to activate, allowing him to use 'Leaf Slash' again and again. And when he KOes the extras, 'Pray for the enemy' may activate to rejuvenate him.
