Nautika

Short answer: Nautika is a 6-Star, Spirit-Afflatus Arcanist who deals Reality damage and works as a DPS, Bloodtithe, Adaptive unit. Like every Arcanist, Nautika hits harder when you respect the Afflatus wheel, so field Nautika where the Spirit advantage actually lands.

Afflatus and Matchups

Nautika uses the Spirit Afflatus. That means Nautika has the advantage against Intellect units and is at a disadvantage into Star units. The two element triangles never cross, so plan a small bench around them rather than forcing one team into every stage. The full breakdown lives on the Afflatus system page.

Role and Damage

Nautika deals Reality damage and is built for DPS, Bloodtithe, Adaptive duties. Reality and Mental are the game's two damage types, and matching your carry's damage type to an enemy's weaker defense is a quiet but real power gain. Pair Nautika with teammates that cover the roles Nautika does not.

Building Nautika

Invest in one carry at a time and gear Nautika with the best-fitting Psychube you have before spreading materials thin. As a 6-Star Arcanist, Nautika is summoned from the gacha, so read the pity system before you spend: a 6-star is guaranteed by 70 pulls and the featured Arcanist is guaranteed within two 6-stars.
