Rating7.5 / 10

Tamamo Cat is a Berserker well-known for her AoE NP, which had grown even more formidable thanks to her interlude. With a solid ATK stat and the Berserker class advantage, this means that she can reliably clear most mob waves despite the class. Additionally, her NP also comes with a heal, somewhat assisting her survivability along with her defense up skill.

However, while her skills belong to the more useful categories, their percentages are awfully outdated, meaning that she doesn’t get a lot out of them. Her NP also stuns her, meaning that she can’t perform Brave chains with it, nor do anything for the turn after. These restrictions result in Tamamo Cat being a Servant mostly used for farming.

Pros

  • Powerful NP
  • Decent survivability thanks to defense up and heals
  • All skills are useful to some extent
  • Possible defense stacking with enough support

Cons

  • Subpar skill percentages
  • Stun on NP
  • Ill-suited for longer fights

Strategies & Tips

Tamamo Cat is best suited to be used for fast farming stages, clearing waves of enemies with her Noble Phantasm. Aside from this, however, she is not the most useful of Servants in harder quests, though her Berserker class still allows her to deal decent damage against easier bosses.

Noble Phantasm

Sansan Nikkou Hiruyasumi Shuchi Nikurin is a Quick-type damage-dealing AoE Noble Phantasm, which applies a stun and a heal on Tamamo - both of which last for two turns. The stun is a major hindrance to her, as it denies her the opportunity to perform Brave chains and incapacitates her for the next turn - thereby lessening the effectiveness of buffs cast on her. Still, the heal may sometimes outweigh this disadvantage if her HP is somewhat low.

Best Servants to Work with

ServantExplanation
Zhuge Liang
Zhuge Liang
Being an NP-focused Berserker, Zhuge Liang is an especially important ally for Tamamo. Outside of allowing her to perform NP much earlier, his defense and attack buffs also increase her overall performance in farming maps.

Tamamo Cat, being a Berserker, benefits from the existence of Servants possessing Taunt, allowing her to live longer under heavier pressure - giving her time to fill her NP gauge.
Mash Kyrielight
Mash Kyrielight
In addition of having a Taunt skill, Mash’s defense buffs go in hand with Tamamo’s to enhance her survivability - potentially reaching total damage reduction with maxed skills and an external help. Additionally, Mashu’s NP also has a built-in attack buff, which aids Tamamo Cat’s overall role, and her targetable Invincibility also helps her in gaining NP.

Best CEs

Starting NP

These are Tamamo Cat’s preferred CEs, as they allow her to unleash her NP much sooner, which is highly important in farming scenarios.

NP Damage Up

Should be used if Tamamo is to clear waves of higher-HP opponents. These may be useful in harder farming stages, where her normal damage output is not enough.

Buster Up

As with all Berserkers, Tamamo Cat benefits from the overall damage increase - though in her case, her NP doesn’t really gain anything out of it. Still, it increases her overall performance against mobs, especially when she is saving her NP.

Skills

Upgrade Priority

  • Monstrous Strength B
    Increases Tamamo’s attack for two turns. This skill allows her to defeat higher-HP mobs, which may be important in certain stages - though due to her stun, the two-turn duration is often wasted.

  • Curse E
    Has a chance to reduce the opponent’s NP charge. Due to the low rank, this skill needs large amounts of investment to be somewhat useful - and even then, she wouldn’t need it much due to her role.

  • Shapeshift B
    Due to the low percentage of this skill, it would not greatly help her against hard hitting opponents. However, in event farming stages, this skill may help her live long enough to unleash her NP.

Tamamo’s QABBB deck allows her to deal decent damage from her normal cards, which means that she would still find some use even without her NP. In exchange, it somewhat impairs her NP gain, meaning that she needs external assistance to charge her NP.
