6 in Reverse 1999: Skills overview and analysis

Like Arcanist 37 in Reverse 1999, 6 also accumulates Eureka, but uses it to buff allies and deal increased damage. His Ultimate, The Revelation, and Discipline basic incantation skills are the sources of damage. Additionally, Discipline inflicts debuffs on enemies. His other basic skill, Duty, grants various buffs to allies.

Below is the skills overview of 6 in Reverse 1999:

The Revelation (Ultimate): This Ultimate skill deals damage to one target and additional Mental damage for every Stats Down, Neg Status, or Control Status on enemies. If 6 has six or more Eureka stacks, he consumes six to deal increased Mental damage. The damage can increase up to four times.

Discipline (basic): This is 6's debuff incantation skill, which damages two enemies. 6 also gains one Eureka if he has four or less stacks. He applies two random statuses from his Collection of Debuff for two rounds.

Duty (basic): With basic incantation skill, Duty, 6 can buff a single ally. He grants two random statuses from his Collection of Buff for two rounds. Additionally, it purifies four random Stats Down, Neg Status, or Control status from the ally. If 6 has five or more Eureka, he spends five to apply Incantation Empowerment I to an ally for up to three rounds.

6 in Reverse 1999 has many valuable buffs and debuffs that are excellent tools in a battle. Since he applies them randomly, it might not be easy to manage. But after upgrading him to Insight III, he applies two random status effects from his Collection of Debuff before Ultimate lands on enemies for two rounds.

Additionally, he applies one random status effect from his Collection of Buffs to all allies for two rounds at the beginning of a round. Therefore, Timekeepers are advised to quickly upgrade his Inheritance to Insight III to pressure opponents with his buff and debuff.

6 must cast his Ultimate often to activates Insight III’s effects and inflict severe damage, which makes him an AP-greedy Arcanist. However, his debuffing and buffing ability is unmatched by any other unit, and his Ultimate can inflict up to 700% damage, which increases if the enemy is under negative statuses

itionally, he gains one Eureka passively at Insight I if one ally has four or more Stats Down, Pos Status, or Counter. These traits make 6 one of the robust support charactes in Reverse 1999 - worth the investment.

6 takes the role of a supporter in a Reverse 1999 team. He can fit in almost any team after maxing out his upgrades. Regardless of their damage type, nearly any Arcanist can take advantage of his Collection of Buffs and Collection of Debuffs. Because they increase both the Reality and Mental Defense of allies and reduce both from enemies.

6 can also restore allies’ health, give them Counter, and reduce enemies’ Damage Bonuses. Timekeepers can select any of their best healers and damage dealers to pair with 6 in Reverse 1999. He can synergize excellently with the Star-Afflatus Arcanist, 37 and Tooth Fairy.
