Operator overview: Gnosis

From Arknights Terra Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Gnosis is a 6★ Hexer Supporter who specializes in Debuff. As with other Supporters, Gnosis' attacks do Arts damage similar to Casters, but has a rather unusual range of an adjusted 3×4 tiles (like that of Stopper Supporters at Elite 1) with a 2-tile extension on both sides at Elite 1. Gnosis also has a lower ATK than other Supporters, but his HP and RES is surprisingly higher.

Talents

  1. Rigid Ice causes Gnosis' attacks to momentarily inflict Cold on the target and applies Fragile on enemies with Cold within his range, which is twice more effective should they are Frozen.
    • Despite the brief cold duration, Rigid Ice synergizes very well with Gnosis' skills and if he is deployed to support other DPS dealers; at Elite 2, Rigid Ice's Fragile debuff is second only to that of Shamare's Malediction.
  2. Two Paths, One Goal applies Status Resistance on Karlan Trade Operators 10 seconds after Gnosis is deployed.

Skills

  1. High-Speed Cogitation causes Gnosis to attack twice and deal more damage when it is charged, which would instantly Freeze enemies in conjunction with Rigid Ice.
  2. Zero-Point Burst releases a frigid blast that deals Arts damage to all enemies in Gnosis' attack range and inflicts a short-lasting Cold on them, and can be Overcharged in which case the Cold will be inflicted twice, instantly Freezing the victims.
  3. Hypothermia greatly buffs Gnosis' ASPD, makes his attacks hit up to two targets at once and targets enemies that are not Frozen over the others, and causes all Frozen enemies within his attack range to remain Frozen until the skill expires, at which they will receive a massive amount of Arts damage.
    • With Hypothermia, Gnosis can keep his enemies Frozen for a long time and allowing the friendly units to inflict as much damage as possible, and particularly effective for stopping fast-moving, hard-hitting enemies like Breakers or unblockable ones like Wraiths dead in their tracks, with the heavy Arts damage at the end will ensure that the victims can be finished off if Gnosis and his allies couldn't.

Operator Module

The UMD-X Module, "Vow", causes Gnosis' attacks to apply a 10% Enfeeble on the target for 2 seconds, in addition to increasing his maximum HP, ATK, and DEF. Once upgraded, Rigid Ice's Fragile effect is increased.

Base skills

Gnosis' base skills provide bonuses for K.T. Operators while he is assigned to the Control Center.

  1. Hidden Mastermind, makes K.T. Operators assigned to the Control Center recover the morale of Operators assigned to the Control Center by 0.05 per hour.
  2. Precise Calculations make K.T. Operators assigned to Trading Posts increase order limit by 6 but reduces order acquisition rate by 15%.

Summary

Gnosis is a solid Hexer Supporter who can weaken enemies by chilling them or freezing them outright, leaving them wide open to his allies who can take them out with near impunity.

Enemies of Kjerag, beware of Gnosis, as when he is around, a harsh winter is coming.
