Oboro is an Epic Void champion from the Shadowkin faction, one of the original Shadowkin champions from Patch 3.40 who has stood the test of time, especially in Hydra. She thrives on stacked debuffs and buff manipulation, growing stronger the more her allies pile onto a target.
Core Strengths & Abilities
Debuff-Triggered AoE: Her basic attack, Spreading Chaos, has a 40% chance (50% booked) to apply a 60% Decrease DEF debuff, and converts into a full AoE hit whenever its target already carries 4 or more debuffs, making her especially strong paired with ally debuffers like Lady Mikage.
Debuff Transfer & Buff Theft: Mystic Smoke (A2) has a 75% chance on its second hit to transfer all of Oboro's own debuffs onto the target, while its first hit has a 75% chance to steal all buffs from the target whenever she's under Veil or Perfect Veil, useful for stripping effects from Hydra heads.
Key Weaknesses
Requires Accuracy for Debuff Transfer: Her transfer and buff-steal mechanics depend on Accuracy investment to land consistently, competing with the Crit-focused build her Ninja Arts skill otherwise wants.
An outstanding Hydra rating alongside strong Dragon and Spider scores confirm Oboro's role as a premier Hydra support Epic, with useful secondary value in Cursed City, Faction Wars, and against Amius.
