Novick has a great supportive kit for Kaiser and other Basic Attack based DPS units, his main shortcoming is that he is just too squishy.
If he could reliably stay alive, he would be a lot more useful.
Novick expands a Crimson Soul Fist Seal Zone lasting 4s to increase the Physical Resistance of allies in the Seal Zone by 80%. Enemies within the Seal Zone are Locked, and have their Swiftness Increase blocked. When all allies deal a basic attack to enemies in the Seal Zone, the ATK coefficient increases by 200%. Novick becomes immune to status effects while using this skill.
Novick attacks enemies to deal 840% of his ATK as DMG, and all basic attacks dealt by the target will miss for 10s.
Novick throws 2 needles containing Crimson Souls at the enemy with the highest ATK, dealing 840% of his ATK as DMG to all enemies in the path and Silencing them for 6s.
Every time an enemy is hit by Novick's active skill, a Crimson Soul is added to the stack, increasing his Physical Resistance by 20% per Crimson Soul in the stack. (Max: 4) When Novick activates his Special Move, he uses up all the stacked Crimson Souls to increase the duration of his Crimson Soul Fist Seal Zone by 1s per stacked Crimson Soul.
