Sword of Convallaria (SoC) - Nergal Build, Unstoppable Force

Nergal is one of the legendary characters in Sword of Convallaria. His unique trait allows him to block hits, gain a substantial shield, and increase his attack on targets marked by his special skill. While his slower playstyle may limit his early-game effectiveness (that’s why he landed rather low on our tier list), his late-game potential is undeniable. With careful build and strategic use, Nergal has become one of my favorite heroes.

Best Skill Set for Nergal Build in Sword of Convallaria

If you're looking for a character who can both protect your team and deal significant damage, Nergal is definitely worth considering. With talents like Urgent Order or March Command you can increase his movement to get him right in the heart of the action. This is the best skill set for him:

1. RK1 – Fast Cover is a fantastic skill if you want to place him right in front of an enemy while protecting a vulnerable ally. With this ability, he can switch positions with someone from his team in 1-3 range tile, granting both of them Physical Shield. It’s a support ability, so afterwards he can launch an attack.
2. RK3 – Both skills at this rank are equally strong and complement his trait. Mark Illumination inflicts The Hanged Man's Mark and additional debuffs on a target. Charged Bayonet is a passive ability that increases his attack if there are no enemies near Nergal at the start of his turn.
3. RK5 – Critical Moment is a great reaction if his HP is running low. While in Dying status, Nergal will dodge all single-target attacks for 1 turn and recover half of his health.
4. RK7 – Burning Bridges deals massive damage to a single-target. Before the hit, Nergal gains Offensive Stance for 2 turns which boosts his Physical attack but also increases the damage he takes.
5. RK9 – Silencing Attack enhances his basic attack by dealing additional damage and inflicting a debuff on Injured targets, preventing them from using any active skills for 2 turns.
6. RK11 – Close Quarter Release deals devastating damage to a single target and knocks them back by 4 tiles. Then, Nergal unleashes AoE damage to all enemies within a 3x3 area in that direction, inflicting a Speed debuff.
