Hamel Guide - The Unstoppable Healer: Path to Nowhere

Are you looking for a powerful and versatile healer to add to your team in Path to Nowhere? Look no further than Hamel, the S type character who specializes in restoring her allies' health and boosting their defenses. In this guide, we'll take a closer look at Hamel's skills, abilities, and stats, and provide tips on how to use her effectively in battle.

Hamel's Stats and Abilities

As a Catalyst job character, Hamel's primary focus is on providing support to her allies rather than dealing damage herself. She has a block of 0, meaning she cannot block enemies, and her attack speed is 0.5, which is relatively slow. However, her magical damage type and high defensive stats make her a valuable asset on the battlefield.

Hamel's max stats are impressive, with 3732 HP, 597 ATK, 227 DEF, and 227 RES. Her min stats are also decent, with 868 HP, 139 ATK, 53 DEF, and 53 RES. These stats make her a durable and reliable healer who can withstand enemy attacks while keeping her allies alive.

Skills and Abilities

Hamel's primary attack is "Requiem," a dance that restores 16% of her attack power to allies in a 3x3 square around her per second. This ability is useful for keeping your team healthy during battles.

Her ultimate skill, "Bewitching Dance," consumes 35 energy and enhances all dance effects by 40% for 12 seconds. During this time, Hamel cannot automatically recover her energy. This skill is particularly useful when your team is under heavy fire and needs a quick boost of healing and defense.

"Infinite Spin" is a passive ability that enhances the effects of all dances by 0.5% per second for up to 60 seconds. At the 45th second, the range is enlarged to a diamond shape, and at the 90th second, it covers the entire field. This ability is especially helpful in longer battles where sustained healing and defense are crucial.

Finally, "Life Touch" is a passive ability that grants allied Sinners within Hamel's dance range a 6% damage reduction. This ability can be a lifesaver in battles where enemies are dealing heavy damage to your team.

Special Ability Description

Hamel's "Hamel Exclusive Brand" increases her attack by 10/12.5/15% and grants her the exclusive skill "Compassionate Strike." This ability reverses the effects of "Requiem" so that enemies within range continuously lose health and increases the damage taken by enemies within range. This ability's strength increases with the level of the original skill, and the reversal effect turns off when used again.

Using Hamel in Battle

To make the most of Hamel's healing abilities, it's best to pair her with other characters who can deal damage and draw enemy fire away from her. She is particularly effective in battles where enemies deal magical damage, as her high resistance makes her a valuable asset in keeping your team alive.

When using Hamel in battle, it's important to keep her dance range in mind and position her strategically to maximize the effectiveness of her healing abilities. Her dances can also be enhanced over time, so it's worth investing in her upgrades to make her even more potent in battle.

Shackles: Everlasting Dance and Healing Efficiency

Hamel's Shackles ability includes two Sync levels that increase his Healing Efficiency by 5% each. Additionally, the "Bewitching Dance" component of his Everlasting Dance lasts for 3 seconds longer than usual, making it a valuable tool in battles that require extended periods of healing.

• Admirer and Emotional Resonance

Hamel's Admirer ability provides a team damage boost of 5% for each Catalyst Sinner on his team. Emotional Resonance is another helpful ability, as it reduces the Ultimate Energy Consumption by 3 points, allowing for more frequent use of powerful attacks.

Affinity Upgrades

Hamel's Affinity upgrades offer various bonuses, including an Attack increase of 5 at level 1, and Attack increases of 6 at levels 3, 5, and 4 (which also unlocks a special conversation and requires dispatching Hamel 10 times). Level 6 unlocks Surveillance Records, while levels 7 and 8 unlock additional special conversations (with level 8 requiring the replacement of Hamel with an Outdoor Supervision Object). Finally, level 9 unlocks an Emoji, and level 10 unlocks the "Obedience Full, Lonely Dance Partner" voice.

Crimebrand Recommendation: Healing

For players who prefer a healing-focused gameplay style, Hamel's Final Prologue ability is an excellent choice. It increases healing by 25% and includes three slots with Attack, Health, and Healing Effect bonuses of 2.4%-4.8%, 4%-8%, and 4%-8%, respectively. This ability can be found in the Memory Anomaly on Mondays, Thursdays, and Sundays.

Late Game: Scarlet Bewitchment

For those who prefer a more attack-oriented gameplay style, Hamel's Scarlet Bewitchment ability is a great option. It provides an Attack increase of 3%-6% and includes slots for Health and Magic Resistance bonuses of 5%-10%. When not attacking, the Attack bonus increases by 1% per second, stacking up to 20 times. This ability can be found in the Resonance Anomaly on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
