*Rises from the ashes left by job training since I heard the Empress got a third skill and there's a lily prancing about waiting to be captured*

As a fellow lover of the empress, I wholeheartedly congratulate you for getting her!

The best part about Nero's 3rd skill is that it effectively makes her the best last unit of the team you can think of.

For those that may not be aware of it (you're new or probably because its rare to find yourself in a situation where you only have only one servant left standing), there are certain mechanics that do favor you when you're at a disadvantage, mehcanics that make Nero's 3 layered guts extremely useful.

First: When outnumbered, say 3 enemies versus your 1 servant, the enemy can only attack once.

Second: When you're whole party is killed, by that I mean no replacement and everyone is dead, the enemy turn effectively ends.

Third: Your NP gauge doesn't reset even after dying and getting revived by Guts

What does this mean for our dear empress?

Well as stated, her third skill applies a 3 layer guts status. Hence, when she is very last servant on the field you have and she dies, it means the enemy turn will always end with only one attack, Nero revives and you get to have your turn. The same goes if she's outnumbered. This means that you have 3 sweet free turns all to yourself.

3 free turns of brave chains. More depending on what master skill and CE you have equipped. And Since NP gauge doesn't reset, being focused or hit by an enemy NP builds your own NP gauge easily, so you can even let loose an NP during your last stand along with the brave chains!

Best last stand unit ever~

Banzai Empress!
