Path to Nowhere Kelvin: A Guide to Mastering the Ice Magician

Kelvin is a B type character in the popular game, Path to Nowhere. He is an adept magician who specializes in Magic Damage Output, and his unique skill set makes him a valuable asset to any team. In this guide, we'll take a closer look at Kelvin's abilities and how to use them effectively to defeat enemies.

Understanding Kelvin's Rarity and Job

Kelvin's Rarity is important because it determines how difficult it is to acquire the character. In Path to Nowhere, there are several Rarity levels, ranging from common to legendary. As a B type character, Kelvin is considered rare, and players will need to invest time and resources to unlock him.

Kelvin's Job is Arcane, which means he is proficient in using Magic. This is important to note because some enemies are immune to physical attacks and require Magic Damage to defeat.

Analyzing Kelvin's Stats

Kelvin's stats are divided into two categories: Max and Min. Max stats represent the character's full potential when leveled up to the maximum level, while Min stats represent the character's starting stats. Kelvin's Max stats for HP, ATK, DEF, and RES are not available, but his Min stats are as follows:

• HP: 875
• ATK: 138
• DEF: 49
• RES: 53
  These stats give us an idea of Kelvin's strengths and weaknesses. He has a low HP pool, but high ATK and RES stats, making him a good candidate for dealing Magic Damage and resisting enemy Magic Damage.

Exploring Kelvin's Skills

Kelvin's skills are what make him stand out in battles. Let's take a closer look at each of his skills:

• Ice Crystal (Basic Attack)
  Kelvin attacks with ice crystals, dealing (114% of Attack damage) Magic Damage each time.

• Frigid Zone (Ultimate Skill)
  Energy Consumption: 29
  Kelvin creates a "Frigid Zone" in the target area, dealing (180% of her Attack) Magic Damage to enemies within range per second and reducing their Movement Speed by 30%. This effect lasts for 4 seconds, during which she can't automatically recover her energy.

• Frozen Freshness
  Kelvin creates a diamond-shaped "Low Temperature Field" around himself. The Movement Speed of enemies inside will be reduced by 20%.

• Frost
  During a battle, Kelvin automatically covers an allied Sinner with the lowest percentage of HP with "Frost", gaining 28% damage reduction. After taking damage, "Frost" is removed. The effect has a 15-second cooldown.

Kelvin's Exclusive Brand (Special Ability)

The movement speed reduction effect of the enemy in the "Frigid Zone" can be stacked, and after stacking 4 times, it will freeze the enemy for 1/1.5/2 seconds.

Kelvin's skills are versatile and can be used in a variety of ways. His basic attack, Ice Crystal, deals decent Magic Damage and can be used to whittle down enemies. Frigid Zone is a powerful ultimate skill that deals massive Magic Damage and reduces enemy Movement Speed. Frozen Freshness is an excellent defensive skill that slows down enemies and gives Kelvin more time to plan his next move. Finally, Frost is a useful ability that can protect an allied Sinner and reduce damage taken.

Using Kelvin's Leader Skill

Kelvin's Leader Skill, Cold Food, increases attack by 15% for 10 seconds upon freezing a target. This is an excellent skill to use in combination with Frigid Zone or Ice Crystal to deal even more damage.
