Understand Nami Skyla
Useful when…
- Close-range normal attacks that lean heavily on Slash damage.
- Slam attacks when you want an area attack and accept its listed distance falloff.
How do its attacks differ?
Normal attacks deal 125 total listed damage: 87.5 Slash, 18.75 Impact, and 18.75 Puncture. They have 10% critical chance, a 1.5× critical multiplier, and 15% status chance at 0.917 attack speed. A regular slam is a separate area attack with 250 Impact damage and 50% falloff by 8 m; a heavy slam deals 375 Blast damage with 30% falloff by 9 m. The weapon's listed range is 2.5 m and its heavy-attack wind-up is 0.7 seconds.
What should you build around?
The weapon requires Mastery Rank 2 and reaches rank 30. Its normal attack's Slash-heavy damage and 15% status chance make status-oriented upgrades a reasonable direction to consider; the input does not provide specific mods or resulting damage, so treat that as a build choice rather than a guaranteed outcome. The listed recipe requires a blueprint, 10 Gallium, 2 Neurodes, 800 Polymer Bundle, and 200 Rubedo; its build time is 43,200 seconds.
What are its limits?
The listed critical chance is 10% with a 1.5× multiplier, so its data does not point to a naturally high-critical profile. It has 2.5 m range and 0.5 follow-through, which favors engaging nearby targets rather than expecting broad reach or strong damage carry-through. Dual Keres is another dual-sword option, but it requires Mastery Rank 7 and has higher listed critical stats; that comparison alone does not establish an overall upgrade.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Low Mastery requirement, but modest listed critical stats.
- Slash-heavy normal attacks, while slam damage uses separate Impact and Blast modes.
- Short listed range and 0.5 follow-through.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Do not treat heavy-slam Blast damage as part of the normal attack's Slash-heavy damage.
- Do not read the top-level 0.15 proc chance as 15 percentage points of added damage; it is the listed status chance.
- Do not assume the Dual Keres comparison proves a direct upgrade for every build.
