White Dryad Nia is an Epic Void Defence champion of the Sylvan Watchers, a revered leader among the Dryads of Nyresa who leads her allies into battle. She's a premier Clan Boss protector with a uniquely flexible cooldown-resetting ability that few other champions can match.
Core Strengths & Abilities
Single-Target Cleanse, Heal, and Cooldown Reset: Her A2, Riotous Revival, strips all debuffs from a target ally, heals them for 40% of their max HP, and — if the target isn't herself — cuts the cooldowns of all their skills by 2 turns, functioning like a single-target Renegade reset that can cleanse a Stun, refresh a key ability, or simply keep an ally alive.
AoE Speed Control: Her A1, Strangling Plants, is an AoE attack with a 30% base (50% booked) chance to place a 30% Decrease SPD debuff, particularly powerful in Hydra when paired with her cooldown-resetting A2 to keep enemy Max HP debuffs cycling.
Team Protection Package: Her A3, Bark Flesh, grants a 50% Ally Protection buff to every ally but herself plus a 15% Strengthen buff, rounding out her kit with strong defensive support.
Shared Healing Passive: Her passive, Broad Roots, splits 20% of any heal she receives out to the rest of the team, adding extra sustain any time she's topped up.
Key Weaknesses
Single-Target Cleanse Limits Reach: Her signature reset can only target one ally at a time, so a team facing widespread debuffs may need additional cleansing support alongside her.
Nia is an outstanding pick for both the Demon Lord and Hydra Clan Boss, with useful utility in the Iron Twins Fortress and Arena Defense, and can even form powerful cooldown-cycling combos with champions like Yumeko.
