Is N Corp Contempt Awe Ryoshu good?

Yes. The reviewer calls her both a damage dealer and a pseudo tank, and in the demo she dealt the most damage while taking almost none.

Does N Corp Ryoshu work in a Tremor team?

She works in Tremor teams and Bleed teams. Tremor Hemorrhage costs Bleed count, but her Skill 3 keeps it going, and Night Awls Gregor helps.

Review

Mirror Dungeon tier

Tremor and Bleed damage dealer and pseudo tank

A hybrid Tremor and Bleed identity that doubles as a durable damage dealer. She stacks Gaze on enemies, and her cascading Skill 3 turns that into a huge single target hit while keeping up Tremor Hemorrhage. The reviewer calls her one of his favorite Ryoshu IDs and says she works in both Tremor and Bleed teams.

Worth pulling?: good pull
Uptie: Uptie IV is worth getting, as her power rolls and damage conditions on the cascading Skill 3 are what make her a standout.

How to play

Hit enemies with her skills to put Gaze on them. Once 7 Gaze is spread across enemies, or one enemy has Contempt, Skill 3 becomes Cascading Gaze of Awe Underneath Contempt. Use it against a single stacked target for the biggest damage. Use To Grasp when you need defense, since it hits harder with Contempt of the Gaze.

+Skill 3 hits very hard against a single Gaze target
+Contempt of the Gaze cuts damage taken heavily
+Support passive adds Bleed and Tremor for the lead ally
+Guard returns Bleed count when hit

−Tremor Hemorrhage drains Bleed count
−Fatal to blunt

Good teammates
