Review & Analysis
Nihilister is a Fire Sniper Rifle (SR) Attacker from Pilgrim with Burst II, fitting the Fire mono-element team. Her Burst, Burning Scourge, deals AoE damage to enemies within range with a Burn effect that ticks damage over time, while also boosting her own Max Ammunition Capacity to keep firing longer. Megiddo Flame adds further direct AoE damage, contributing to overall damage each rotation. Burning Shot gives her expanded Pierce when firing during Full Charge, plus bonus damage whenever a normal attack hits more than one enemy at once, useful against groups of enemies.
