Noire in Reverse 1999 deals Mental damage with her skills. Her Basic Skill 2 and Ultimate Skill deal mass attack, whereas her Basic Skill 1 inflicts damage to a single target. Here is an overview of her skills:

• Cutting Vision (Basic Skill 1): Noire deals damage to a single target. She focuses all the Spotlight on enemies to the target before attacking.
• Stunt Scene (Basic Skill 2): Noire inflicts damage on two enemies on the battlefield. She gains stacks of Genius Insight, and this attack can activate Spotlight effect additional times.
• Dramatic Moment (Ultimate Skill): Noire deals damage to all enemies on the battlefield. She gets a Mental damage/penetration rate buff for each type/stack of negative status on foes. Every stack of Genius Insight grants her a certain percentage of chance to cast the Dramatic Moment again. When Genius Insight reaches a certain number of stacks, it further increases her chance of casting this skill again. Casting this skill again depletes a certain number of Genius Insight stacks.

Explanation of Nore’s effects:

• Genius Insight: It gives her a certain percentage of chance to cast Dramatic Moment once more after casting it. This percentage increases based on the number of Genius Insight stacks.
• Spotlight: It is a negative status that applies Rigidity, Poison, or Burn stacks on the enemies after Noire attacks them.

Should you pull Noire in Reverse 1999?

Noire is not a must-pull character, especially if you’re a F2P player. She needs various buffs from other Reverse 1999 Arcanists to deal the highest damage with her kit. It might be tougher to build a team with her than with other damage dealers.

Additionally, if you want to use her for her ability to recast the ultimate skill, upgrade her to Portrait level three. It will help her cast her ultimate twice after casting it once.
