Nest, mods I recommend.

If you are planning on using nest i recommend giving her health mods, because her ability gives her protection equal to 40% of her max health, and these mods would give her lots of protection when she is attacked.

Again - what's the source on this? It's not spelled out in the kit reveal or in the ability descriptions.

I call shenanigans.

Well let's look at that.

Level 8
Nest has +80% Counter Chance and ignores Taunt during her turn. Whenever Nest is damaged by an attack, she gains +30% Critical Chance and 40% Bonus Protection (stacking). This Bonus Protection increases by an additional 40% each time. Both bonuses expire and reset at the end of her next turn. Whenever an enemy loses a buff or debuff, Nest gains +2% Critical Damage and Health Steal (stacking) until the end of the encounter.

Where's the health part?

It does not say "bonus protection equal to 40% of her max health" which it does for every other person with a similar skill. It simply says "40% bonus protection (stacking).

Put health mods if you want, defense mods might be better, but make sure:

Arrow, Triangle, Circle and Cross are all protection primaries. Speed is NOT the key to Enfys if you want her unique to keep her alive.

Unless OP is correct, I think best stat boosts, regardless of mod set used are speed, potency, and protection and in that order.

Speed resets her protection. If you're aiming to take advantage of the ridiculous stacking mechanic, make her almost base-level slow with great potency. Then when she moves she'll definitely inflict.

If she's slow enough, other Meta teams will take up to 2 turns on her before she resets her protection, she'll be stacked high unless it's Nihilus.

Unless OP knows something we don't, OP is not correct.

Here's the thing - it doesn't specifically mention Health. Neither does Chopper's unique.

Zeb's unique, on the other hand, does. "Zeb has bonus Max Protection equal to +40% of his Max Health..."
Even his recovery simply states, "...recovers 15% Protection...".No mention of Health.

That being said, a quick test with Enfys does SEEM to bear out the idea that the boost is based off of health, not protection. With 8k health and 9k prot, she recovered a bit. With 7k health and 1500 prot, the recovery seemed to be larger than her initial base protection (based on the number/size of prot bars present).

Is this definitive proof? Of course not. Am I suddenly going to stack Enfys with health? Nope. I even took all the max prot mods off in favor of utilizing her whole kit instead of going all in on a feature I hope to not even need that much.

It says so in the datamined code. It's been posted here before, I'm at work otherwise I'd quote it.

I'd love to see it. All I've seen is a bunch of "this is how it is" with nothing to back it up.
