Viper (Attacker · Water) — Stats & Skills | NIKKE

30-second summary of Viper

Viper is a Water Nikke in the Attacker class, manufactured by Tetra. Stats and skill text below come straight from the game's data.

Review & Analysis

Viper is a Water Attacker with an SG, playing more like a tactical support than a pure damage dealer. Skill 1 "Snake Sense" triggers the moment a target appears, buffing the whole team's ATK and Hit Rate — a strong opening-round buff. Skill 2 "Snake Scale," on entering Full Burst, excludes one ally from enemy targeting and grants herself 1 second of invincibility, though the effect ends if she takes damage. Her Burst "Snake Bite" deals heavy single-target damage and also lowers DEF if the target is the stage's designated enemy. This mix of team buffing and aggro control makes her flexible across team comps.
