Is The One Who Grips Faust good?

She is OK as a sanity support in N Corp and Bleed teams, but her damage is weak.

Why are her Nails weak?

Nails halve before they apply, so a stack of 5 and 4 yields far less Bleed than it appears.

Sanity healer for N Corp teams

The One Who Grips Faust is a season one N Corp identity. Her rolling skills are poor and Nails do little, but her passive heals 15 SP to two allies at four Lust resonance. That sanity support is the reason to use her.

Worth pulling?: skip
Uptie: Not worth much. Uptie IV does not change her role as a sanity battery.

How to play

Build Nails with The Gripping and Cackle. Her passive gives SP healing at combat start. Use her Evade when her skills would lose clashes. Skill 3 gets stronger against 5 or more Nails.
