Best Arc (Weapons) for Nanally


Ready Ready
Base ATK: 570
Sub Stat: Crit Rate: 24%

increases ATK by 15%.

Increases Basic Attack and Critical Riposte damage by 15% for 15s when casting a Redirect Skill or Ultimate, up to 2 stacks.

Grants a Left Tiger Talisman when casting Redirect Skill and a Right Tiger Talisman when casting Ultimate.

Unlocks Commander Tiger Talisman if the wearer obtains the other type of talisman within 15s of gaining one.

Arc: Commander Tiger Talisman — Increases the wearer's damage to Bosses by 10% for 10s.

Fluff of Fortitude
Base ATK: 512
Sub Stat: ATK: 27.5%


Increases the wearer's DMG by 22%. Increases this effect to 28% against enemies with HP below 50%.

Ready-Ready is Nanally's signature S-rank weapon and her best-in-slot choice for most situations. The weapon gives CRIT Rate as its substat. The base ATK is also high at 37, making it the strongest raw stat among her options. The weapon skill provides three main benefits:

  • First, it increases your ATK by 15% permanently. This is a straightforward damage boost that applies to everything Nanally does.
  • Second, it increases Basic Attack and Critical Riposte damage by 15% for 15 seconds whenever you cast your skill or ultimate. This effect stacks up to two times, meaning you can reach 30% bonus damage if you use both your skill and ultimate in quick succession (which is exactly what Nanally's standard rotation does).
  • Third, the weapon has a unique mechanic called Commander Tiger Talisman. Using your skill grants a Left Tiger Talisman, and using your ultimate grants a Right Tiger Talisman. If you obtain both talismans within 15 seconds of each other, you unlock Commander Tiger Talisman, which increases your damage against bosses by 10% for 10 seconds.

This third effect is important in boss fights, which is where Nanally shines. Your standard rotation automatically triggers this buff every rotation without having a hard time to set it up. The combination of CRIT Rate substat, high base ATK, and effects made to boost Nanally's output makes Ready-Ready the clear best option if you can obtain it.

Fluff of Fortitude is an S-rank weapon and a strong alternative to Ready-Ready. This weapon gives ATK% as its substat instead of CRIT Rate, which means you need better CRIT Rate substats on your cartridges and modules to compensate. However, the weapon skill is powerful and straightforward.

It increases your damage by 22% at all times. Against enemies with HP below 50%, this bonus increases to 28%. This is a simple, effective damage boost that requires no specific rotation adjustments. The main advantage of Fluff of Fortitude is that it's easier to obtain if you're willing to purchase the Battle Pass.

Best Cartridges and Modules for Nanally


Fireflies and the Forest (Best Overall)

Shadow Creed
2 Pc Bonus: Anima DMG +10%

4 Pc Bonus: CRIT DMG +8% per stack (up to 7) when nearby enemies take Anima DMG. Lasts 10s, works off-field.
2 Pc Bonus: ATK +10%

4 Pc Bonus: ATK +25% for 20s after casting a Skill.

Fireflies and the Forest is Nanally's best-in-slot cartridge set and the recommended choice for most players.

  • The 2-piece set bonus gives you 10% Anima damage, which applies to all of Nanally's attacks since everything she does is Anima damage. This is a straightforward damage boost with no conditions.
  • The 4-piece set bonus is where this set shines. Whenever a nearby enemy takes Anima damage, you gain 8% CRIT DMG for 10 seconds. This effect stacks up to 7 times, giving you a maximum of 56% CRIT DMG at full stacks.

Here's why this is perfect for Nanally:

First, the effect works even when Nanally is off-field. If your support characters deal Anima damage before you swap to Nanally, you start building stacks immediately. By the time you switch to Nanally, you already have 2-3 stacks ready.

Second, Nanally attacks constantly while on the field. Every basic attack, every Underboss coordinated strike, all of these deal Anima damage and build stacks. You reach maximum stacks (7) within 2-3 seconds of starting your damage rotation.

Third, each stack lasts 10 seconds. This means as long as you're dealing damage every 10 seconds (which Nanally always is), you maintain full stacks throughout the entire fight. The 56% CRIT DMG bonus combines with Nanally's Ichi-daime's Authority buff (30% CRIT DMG from her skill) for a total of 86% CRIT DMG bonus before even considering cartridge and module substats. This massive CRIT DMG scaling is why Nanally hits so hard.

Additionally, Fireflies and the Forest has a favorable build path for Nanally's Type 2 specialization.

Increase Crit Rate by 6% for each type II Module equipped.

Every character has a specialization for a specific module type. Nanally's specialization is Type 2 modules. For each Type 2 module you equip, Nanally gains 6% CRIT Rate. Here is the recommended setup:

How to Play Nanally in NTE?

Nanally is a pure damage dealer. She contributes 60-75% of your team's total damage output in most compositions. This means your team revolves around keeping her buffed and on the field as long as possible. Unlike sub-DPS characters who swap in and out quickly, Nanally needs 10-15 seconds of continuous field time per rotation or at least till she has Ichi-Daime's Authority effect active (which lasts 12 seconds).

Nanally has two different basic attack sequences you can use:

  • Standard 5-Hit Combo: Press the basic attack button repeatedly to perform five consecutive strikes. This deals solid damage and is your go-to combo in most situations.
  • Charged 3-Hit Combo: Hold the basic attack button to perform three powerful strikes. The damage per hit is higher, but the total damage across all three hits is slightly lower than the full 5-hit combo. However, this combo is faster to complete.

Start each rotation by setting up team buffs through your support characters like Haniel or Sakiri. Once your supports have applied their buffs, switch to Nanally and use her skill to gain Ichi-daime's Authority. This gives you 30% CRIT DMG for 12 seconds and enables follow-up attacks whenever your team deals Esper Cycle damage. Immediately follow up with your ultimate to summon Underboss for 6 seconds.

During this window, use your basic attack combos continuously. The optimal combo is three standard basic attacks followed by three charged attacks (hold basic attack button). Underboss attacks alongside every hit you land, effectively increasing your damage output.

Keep attacking until Underboss disappears or Ichi-daime's Authority expires. Once your buffs run out, you can switch to supports to refresh their abilities/trigger Esper Cycles or stay on Nanally if enemies are close to breaking. Avoid switching Nanally out early, as this ends Ichi-daime's Authority prematurely and wastes potential damage.
