Nyafia No. 143

DarkSize MNot rideableDay & night
✦ Rarity · Common — "Brings its own shotgun"

Shot-Nyan Mode is exactly what it sounds like: Nyafia pulls out a shotgun and fires at nearby enemies on its own for a while. It also unlocks a dedicated weapon — Nyafia's Shotgun at Technology 52 — and adds 10–35% to your own shotgun damage while it is in the party.

Partner skill
Shot-Nyan Mode — "When activated, Nyafia will fire a shotgun at nearby enemies for a limited time. While in party, increases the player's shotgun damage by (10~35)%. (Does not stack)" The autonomous firing is the fun part; the passive shotgun buff is the reason it stays in the party. Build around the weapon and it pulls double duty.

The story of Nyafia

"Strongly dislikes anyone catching a glimpse of its concealed eye. If you insist on trying, it'll burst into tears and ignore you for two weeks."

It hides one eye and takes catching a glimpse of it very personally — the Paldeck says it will burst into tears and then ignore you for two weeks. A Pal that both operates a shotgun and holds a fortnight-long grudge over eye contact.

Field notes
— from the log of a Pal keeper

Nocturnal flag. Plan the trip for after dark.

Technology 52 for the shotgun is a real investment. Decide before you build around it.

The Lv 60 alpha at Shield Dragon Tunnel is a cleaner catch than the plateau spawns.
