Now you have a Neph ability and let's understand, how it works.

In all battles will appear a new orange bar above the mana, called Fury. When you collect 100% fury, the Neph button will activate and you can transform. Max required fury points depend from your level. And received Fury points depend from spent mana and magic level.

Fury Points = (Spent Mana) x √ Magic Level

For example, 90 lvl character needs 4858 Fury; √ 11 = 3.317...
It means, I have to spend 4858 / 3.3 = 1465 mana with 11 lvl spells, to collect enough Fury. It equals to 10-11 used spells. Neph makes more beneficial to upgrade full magic, but not use low-level.



Neph and dragon can't work together. You must choose: Use the Dragon or Nephilim. But if dragon can be summoned only once per battle, Neph transformations are infinite. After each transformation, Neph button needs 40 rounds for cooldown. While in Neph, orange fury bar is converting into 12 special Fury Points, which spend during your attacks.

After each transformation your dragon loses all his HP and you must food him each time.




You can choose any Neph class. It depends from equipped Neph armors, and can be changed any time. Also can keep all three classes of armors in the backpack and change them as necessary.

Class of the Neph influences on his skin color. Red - Berserk; Blue - Paladin; Green(brown) - Witcher.
Outlook color of the armor says about equipped mask. Purple - chaos, Green - Earth, Blue - Water, etc.
Black color means, that mask was upgraded to orange quality.



By default, Nephilim has three base attacks:
• Physical Strike [requires 1 Fury point];
• Magic Bite [2 Fury points];
• Magic Breath [2 Fury points];

Magic Bites have additional effects, which depend from equipped masks.
They are similar to main magic spells:
— Earth has a higher chance to deal a crit;
— Fire has a stable stronger damage;
— Order has a chance to deal +25% damage;
— Chaos can get a heal, equal to 100% of dealt damage;
— Water has a stable heal, equal to 18% of dealt damage;
— Air has a small chance to deal x2 damage.

Magic Breath depends only from Neph's class.
Berserk has a Fire breath, Paladin - Order, Witcher - Earth. Breath deals multiple damage: always one primary and sometimes +1 or 2 additional +50% damage.

Both of magic attacks can disorient with magic orbs and deal damage, depending from Neph's strength and level of your character. Magic level doesn't matter.

You don't lose a Fury point, when missing a turn. Also don't lose it for using self-preserve orb.



All neph armors have only one slot, for parcels of strength.
Here is a list of all base parts of armor, which can be purchased at the shop for 20 - 25.





Base armor has two tiers of upgrades for Sydian and reals.
— First upgrade to 50-70 lvl requires 16,000 Adan reputation
— The second tier 70-90 lvl - 37,000 rep.

Also, each armor can be a bit more strengthened for 14 days to orange quality, with small amount of sydian.
— Blue armors require 7000 to be 'oranged';
— 50-70 first tier - 37,000 ;
— And 70-90 second tier oranging requires 81,000 .

Total Neph stats = [Your own stats] + [Neph Armor] + [All battle buffs]

Dragon stats doesn't matter. So, If you're going to use only Nephilim, all dragon armor can be removed, to spend less food for Dragon. From each transformation you're getting +10% heal from your total (in Neph) max-HP.



Firstly, a short guide about marks and magic:
— There are three primary magic elements, used by only one class - Fire, Earth, Order;
— And three secondary, used by two classes - Water, Chaos, Air;
— Each class can equip marks from his own primary element + three elements of magic of [weaker to him] class.

Witchers have access to marks of [Earth] + [Fire, Air, Chaos] = = Other words = = (Earth + Bers magic)

Paladins - [Order] + [Earth, Water, Chaos] = = = = (Order + Witch magic)

Berserks - [Fire] + [Order, Water, Air] = = = = (Fire + Pal magic)

So! When you are transforming to Nephilim, if your class and Neph class are the same - nothing happens, you just get the sum of all stats from your and Neph armor. But if your classes are not the same - all main class stats and marks transform too.

Let's say, you are a Witcher and have a Neph-Berserk. When transforming:

1. Main stat of witcher is Will, and berserk's main is Intuition.
So, all your will is transforming to → Intuition;
Your intuition, in his turn → to Stamina;
And stamina → to will

2. All your damage decrease bonus becomes to crit bonus.

3. Remembering, this:

Witchers have marks of [Earth] + [Fire, Air, Chaos]
Berserks - [Fire] + [Order, Water, Air]

And looking for matches. Fire-Fire and Air-Air = matched, nothing happens with their %.
Earth and Order /// Chaos and Water don't match.
— So, your % from Earth marks become to Order (primary - to primary);
— % from Chaos marks become to Water (secondary - to secondary).

More visual:

Witch	⇄	Pal	⇄	Bers	⇄	Witch
	No Match Change		Match Save		No Match Change
	Match Save		No Match Change		Match Save
	No Match Change		Match Save		No Match Change
	Match Save		No Match Change		Match Save

Looks a bit crazy, but with enough experience, you'll start comparing and understanding percentages during a battle.



Each Neph has three magic skills, which can be learned additionally. They also spend two Fury points and it's a big question, which will be better to use - magic skill, or two Phys-Strikes.

Available magic elements depend from the class of your Nephilim. If you are a Witcher with Neph-Bers, you can access to Fire, Chaos, Air neph-magic. If chaos is easy to learn for you, fire and air must be somehow upgraded to 6 level, which will allow to learn 6 lvl Neph-magic. And you must keep upgrading your main magic, to continue upgrading the Neph-magic. Instead of reals, you also can purchase green armor of another class and farm essences.

All magic can be reflected*

Level	Fire	Earth	Order	Water	Air	Chaos
36
49
58
68
79
90

Even if you are not going to use this magic, it's good to learn at least one spell, which sometimes will help to spend your fury, if you are standing in reserve with Neph.

Which Neph is better for my class?

Firstly you must know, that logic "I am berserk and want a Neph-pal to kill witchers" - doesn't work. Neph is more about specialization, than killing someone. You must choose, which task you want to solve.

Neph-Bers is the best in instances, against bosses and any other PvE. He just does everything faster. It's also good in PvP, cause nearly everything in the game depends from your damage. Faster damage - more gold - more heroism etc. If you can't decide, which Neph to use - take Berserk and don't mind. You will like it.

Berserk has only one big problem...

Neph-Witcher. It's exactly about anti-NephBers. The key ability of Neph-Witcher is damage reduction, which is his bad side at the same time. Damage reduction works great against Neph-Berserks, but is useless, if you are fighting against someone, who already has a low damage (ex. other player-witchers, player-paladins). Even against player-Berserks - Neph-Bers is better with his huge damage, than Neph-Witch.

In 1 vs 1 fights, considering that people mostly use Neph-Zerks, witcher will be the best for win. But you have to calculate each your turn and use Neph with your opponent at the same time. Otherwise he can just wait for the end of your Neph, and only then transform to Bers and deal killer crits.

Conclusion: Neph-Witch is cool, but requires some skills.

Neph-Paladin is the best in huge team fights, but not so good at 1 vs 1. You must know, that Nephs get additional HP due to their armor, which makes more beneficial to drink elixirs in Neph. While Neph-zerks are doing huge damage and drinking 4-5-6 elixirs with bonus HP, your paladin just blocks everything and you don't need to use so many elixirs in Neph.

Why paladin is the best in team fights? Now let's check the magic

Paladin		Berserk		Witcher

Berserks rarely use magic, cause it's usually better to deal two additional phys-crits, than to use magic. Fire dot can used against other strong Nephs, to reduce their phys damage, but usually they have high fire reflection. Air magic works good in combo with Neph-Breath, cause each damage from the breath bouquet can deal an additional air damage and give additional heal effect = fast huge damage, a little heal.

Witchers have to stand 12 rouns against berserk's 12 phys-attacks and also use magic rarely.

If berserks do a huge damage, paladins and witchers can punish too brave berserks with the Dead Water XI. It works rarely even at 11 lvl (once per 6-7 hits), but sometimes it's too painful to get -5000 reflection, dealing -4000 damage. But dont forget about water reflection, which can have berserks.

Paladins have the best magic. If Neph-Zerks and Neph-Witchers need to stand exactly against the convenient opponent, paladins can do targeted attacks where they want. They even don't need to have cool armor, cause 11 lvl magic can be learned even with blue neph armor and remotely bring a good harm to enemies.

Also, with Powerful Black Spot Pal can catch a skeleton, which has a 'zero' damage, and start missing all his turns and using self-preservation orbs by cooldown. This will save all your fury and allow to deliver six (!) Mental strikes to required target. With such support, any top player can be killed. And now imagine, if there are 2-3 Nephs, but not one ;)

Neph-pals still have a big minus... supporting doesn't allow to deal a good damage and get as good rewards, as berserks.

As I said previously, if you still don't know, what to choose - take a Berserk.
