Sim-optimal gear

Recommended badge & Dramatic Scene loadout

Full configuration matrix (264 configs tested)

Every compatible (badge × gem) combination tested by the sim, sorted by DPS. dps_dedup = bean-faithful (a gem matching a native badge skill is a no-op, max level wins). dps_stacked = each source independent (gem fully stacks on native). Rows marked ★ are where the two columns differ — that's the in-game test you can run to validate which mode matches the actual game behavior.

Damage timeline

How the top configs play out over 90 seconds

Cumulative damage from second 0 to fight end. Lines that pull ahead early come from earlier ult bursts; lines that converge late are steady-DPS configs. The gap at second 90 IS the DPS gap between configs.

Stand

Smack

The signature stand drives every active skill — its passive and ultimate define this character's identity.

Passive

Hypersonic Harpoon

Ermes uses her sticker to split her harpoon into two. She throws one toward an ally's location, then grabs the other harpoon, peeling off the sticker to rapidly approach the ally. Dashes toward the ally with the lowest HP percentage within 6 tiles, granting them a Shield equal to 1800% of Defense and having a 80% chance to Stun all enemies within 1 tiles for 4 seconds.

Active

Duplicated Form

Ermes puts a sticker on herself, duplicating part of her body to absorb incoming damage. Gains a Shield equal to 600% of Defense for 10 seconds. When Shield expires, Ermes takes 10 damage. Upon casting this skill, gains 2 stacks of Defense Up. Cooldown: 14 seconds.

Ultimate

License for Revenge

Ermes hurls a sticker at an enemy to duplicate them, then rips off the sticker. Strikes the target, dealing damage equal to 1200% of Defense to the target and other enemies within 5 tiles in a cone-shaped area in that direction before pulling them toward herself and Stunning them for 4 seconds.
