Provoker Thaar
Provoker Thaar Champion Loadout
Nekmo Thaar is an amazing Hydra champion and can be used in many builds. In this build we are focusing on the Provoke set to give us an extra option to land provoke on the annoying Head of Decay. Nekmo's A3 already has a Grants Extra Turn component so he will always do one AOE attack per turn no matter what. Since he has two AOE attacks, he will always attack the Head of Decay each turn. Giving you a 30% chance to land Provoke just from this one champion alone.
Built fast he can get a lot of turns in a Hydra fight. He also has a great aura for this fight. The key here to this build is to have Nekmo be a key supporter to the rest of the team, providing invaluable buffs and debuffs to the squad. You want him fast and tanky.
Strategy Description
Artifacts Description
This is a phenomenal set for Nekmo given his two AOE attacks. He will non-stop attempt to taunt the Head of Decay so it can't do any of it's pesky cleanses. Even when he is provoked by other hydra heads, he will still attempt to land provokes on the Head of Decay. Which is really nice. We're looking for speed and accuracy in this build within the sub-stats.
For the other set we're looking for more speed and accuracy. You can't get enough speed for a champ like this considering his A3. The Perception set is built just for this and works out really well as a compliment to the Provoke set. Nekmo has a ton of debuffs and you will want them all to land during the fight. Decrease Attack on an AOE is amazing, as well as Decrease Speed & Leech. So you will need to hit the accuracy thresholds for those fights.
For the accessories you have a few logical options. Refresh will give you more turn meter boosts by refreshing the A3 more often and counterattack will give you more chances to land provokes on the Head of Decay. Considering he is here for provokes mainly within this build, I went with the Revenge accessories but either serves the purpose of making Nekmo better at his job.
* Some artifact sets have upgraded versions available. If you have a better upgraded version of this recommended artifact set, definitely use that instead.
