Narja is a 5-star Instinct elemental character of the controller class that specializes in boosting the damage output of the team’s attack cards while also healing the team when attack cards are used while she has Voracity stacks. 

Chaos Zero Nightmare Narja

She serves as an amazing healer that can have as few cards as possible in the deck to allow others to cycle their deck easier or as a sub DPS that deal defense-based damage and boost the damage output of other characters in the same team. 

Narja’s main gimmick lies mainly in her 2 different stack effects: Voracity and Predation, both of which can be obtained by using different Narja cards and has effects that boost the team’s overall damage output while healing the team.

Voracity is Narja’s main gimmick. When Narja has Voracity obtained through the various effects of her cards, whenever an attack card is used by anyone on the team, Narja will consume stacks of Voracity proportional to the amount of enemies hit and the amount of hits the attack cards has in order to boost the damage output of that attack’s card damage instance. When Voracity is consumed, Narja will also heal the entire team proportional to her own Defense stat based on the amount of Voracity stacks consumed.

Predation is Narja’s other important gimmick, which can also be gained by fulfilling different conditions when using her cards. When Narja has Predation, whenever she consumes Voracity, she will further boost the damage output of the attack cards used by a massive amount.

Narja also has a defense-based damage card deck, which allows her to support defense-based damage team comp while also helping her to deal a decent amount of damage by herself, opening up a sub DPS card deck build as her side option. Generally though, she works best as a AFK healer that doesn’t need many cards in her deck that boost the damage output of the team, heal the team and help the team cycle the card deck more efficiently.

Here are an analysis of all of Narja’s cards and their most important Epiphanies:

For Narja, players should mix and match her Memory Fragment sets by using 3 different 2 piece sets on her. Her preferred Memory Fragment sets are:

Healer’s Journey
2-pc: +12% Max HP
Explanation: Grants Narja a boost in max HP for the team to survive longer.
Tetra’s Authority
2-pc: +12% Defense

As a support healer character that scales off defense for both her healing and damage output, players should focus on boosting her defense stat as much as possible while also invest in her other offensive stats like critical stats to optimize her damage output.

PieceMain Stats
IdealCrit Rate% or Crit Damage%
DesireInstinct Damage%
ImaginationDefense%
PrioritySub Stats
1stDefense%
2ndDefense
3rdCritical Chance%
4thCritical Damage%

Important Stat Threshold:

– Narja wants to have at least 300+ Defense to fulfill her final Potential condition, so players should invest in her defense stat as high as possible.

– For sub DPS Narja, players should invest in Narja’s Critical Chance to at least 70% so that she can reliably deal critical hits.

As a very powerful universal support character that can boost the damage output of various teams that rely on Attack Cards, Narja has 3 main teams that she can be slotted in: teams that focus on spamming attack cards, teams that rely on basic attacks and teams that deal defense-based damage.

Depending on the different teams, Narja’s builds will need to be adjusted accordingly.

Some of Narja best teams are:

SerenielSelenaNarja
Main DPSSub DPS/ SupportSupport/ Sustain

This is the main example of an attack card spamming team for Narja, with Sereniel serving as the team’s main DPS with her ability to constantly cycle her cards whenever an enemy is Ravaged. This allow Narja to spend her Voracity stacks to boost the damage output of Sereniel’s attack cards to the maximum. Selena is the team’s sub DPS and support option to reset the enemies’ Tenacity Gauge, allowing Sereniel to deal more damage to them and cycle her cards.

Narja can also be run with other Main DPS that spam attack cards like Tressa, Yuki, etc.

Mei LinReiNarja
Main DPSSupport/ SustainSupport/ Sustain

This is an example of a basic attack card centric team, with Mei Lin serving as the team’s main DPS due to how often she can use her Basic Attack cards. Both Sereniel and Rei offer a powerful boost in Basic Card damage, allowing Mei Lin to deal extremely powerful basic card attacks. A Basic build Chizuru can also be slotted into this team as a main DPS in place of Mei Lin.

KhalipeAmirNarja
Main DPSSub DPS/ SupportSupport/ Sustain

Finally, this team comp is an example of a defense-based damage team comp that Narja can be slotted in. Narja’s card epiphanies allows her to massively increase the defense-based damage of allies and increase the defense-based damage taken by enemies, helping to maximize this team’s damage output while also allowing Narja to become a sub DPS in her own right. 

The failed experiment with infinite potential to support various teams in the game, Narja promises to be one of the most universal support characters in Chaos Zero Nightmare, so players shouldn’t miss out on the chance to elevate their team comps by getting Narja right away with the help of Enjoygm – the best top up site on the web!
