[2023] Nova Awakened Abilities

The power of the Nova Force is about to become even stronger! Coming very soon, Awakened Abilities will be available for Nova, including:

Cosmic Beam - Awakened

• On War Offense, clear all Barrier on primary and adjacent targets
• On War Offense, if this character has applied Nova Force this match, Bonus Attack the primary target for 250% damage
• On War Offense, characters killed by this attack cannot be revived

Nova Blast - Awakened

• On War Offense, clear all Barrier on primary and adjacent targets
• On War Offense, if this character has applied Nova Force this match, apply Bleed to primary and adjacent targets
• On War Offense, characters killed by this attack cannot be revived

The Human Rocket - Awakened

• On War Offense, if this character has Charged and 2 or more Knowhere allies, Cosmic enemies cannot gain Defense Up

Materials for these abilities will be available in the special Nova Overloaded Orb, which can be purchased for Power Cores or get 2x the value through limited-time offers.

As an Apex War team, Knowhere is designed to be dominant while on Offense and Defense in Alliance War. In reviewing frustration in mirror matches with previous Apex War teams, like Gamma, these Awakened Abilities have been designed to help mitigate that friction.

The Awakened Abilities for Nova will appear in-game next week, so be sure to get your best scores in the Nova Trials!
