Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1).
If unit is within 2 spaces of a trap in Aether Raids, allies on the map can move to a space within 2 spaces of unit ("trap in Aether Raids" includes any trap—triggered, disarmed, false, or otherwise).
Allies within 2 spaces of unit can move to any space within 2 spaces of unit.
For allies within 2 spaces of unit, grants Atk/Res+5 and neutralizes penalties to Atk/Res during their combat, and restores 7 HP after combat.
If unit is within 3 spaces of an ally, grants bonus to unit's Atk/Res = 20% of unit's Res at start of combat + 6, neutralizes unit's penalties to Atk/Res, deals damage = 20% of unit's Res (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack during combat, and restores 7 HP to unit after combat.

Inflicts Atk/Res-3 on foe and additional penalty to foe's Atk/Res = 6 - current penalty on each of those stats during combat (min 0; calculates each stat penalty independently; still inflicts penalty on foe even if foe triggers an effect that neutralizes penalties during combat). If penalty is active on foe's Atk or Res, inflicts Special cooldown charge -1 on foe per attack during combat (only highest value applied; does not stack). After combat, inflicts Atk/Res-6 on foe through its next action.

At start of turn, grants Special cooldown count-1.
At start of player phase or enemy phase, if any foes within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit have Res less than unit's Res+5, inflicts 【Ploy】 and 【Exposure】 on those foes through their next actions.

Nomah Best IVs

Recommended IVs

Stat Superboon/Superbane IV Recommendation
HP (18) HP Superbane ★★★☆☆
Atk (12) No Attack IV ★★★★★
Spd (6) Spd Bane ★★☆☆☆
Def (7) No Def IV ★☆☆☆☆
Res (10) Res Boon ★★★★★

◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws

See the IV Checker for All Units Trait Fruits—How to Change IVs

When using an Ascendant Floret, we recommend getting the next superboon if it fits the hero. If not, consider what stat your hero needs most.

+Res / -Spd

The best IVs for Nomah are +Res and -Spd. Boosting Nomah's Res superboon from base 49 to 53 makes him one of the best magic tanks in the game, giving him a clear purpose on most teams.

Nomah's Spd is middling at base 28, and is not high enough where investment will help him outspeed all other mid Spd foes. Taking it as a bane will still let him outspeed the slower end of the Spd tiers such as armored units, and is a good bane to take to protect Nomah's physical bulk as well.

+Res for a +10 merge

We recommend a +Res IV when merging Nomah up to +10 to maximize his magical bulk and his bonus stats from Prior's Tome.

How to Use, Explanation

Nomah's combat potential isn't as good as other offensive units due to his base kit being support oriented. We use Crystalline Water and Phantom Res to boost his Res checks for Pulse Up: Ploy and a Discord B skill of your choice.

Nomah is a ranged magic attacker (range = 2). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Res stat.

Nomah Strengths

Prior's Tome allows ally warping

Nomah Attack

Nomah's exclusive weapon Prior's Tome allows allies anywhere on the map to warp to any space within 2 spaces of Nomah, as long as Nomah is near a trap in Aether Raids.

Prior's Tome also allows allies within 2 spaces of Nomah to warp to any space within 2 spaces of him, giving Prior's Tome mobility effects even outside Aether Raids.

Prior's Tome grants allies within 2 spaces of Nomah Atk/Res+5, 7 HP post-combat healing, and neutralizes their penalties to Atk/Res.

In combat, Prior's Tome grants Nomah bonus Atk/Res equal to 20% of his Res, a guaranteed follow-up attack, and 7 HP post-combat healing.

Prior's Tome is more of a mobility and support weapon rather than an offensive weapon, but it is great at its role.

Nomah Weaknesses

No True Damage or True Damage Reduction Effects

Nomah's Prior's Tome does not have built-in true damage or true damage effects, which run rampant in today's metagame.

This renders Nomah as a pure support unit, providing effects to allies and giving them impressive mobility.
