Hero

Nyx

Duelist

The Stray

Nyx stacks Attack and Attack Speed every time her Rush window opens, and refreshes all her Rush abilities every twelve auto attacks — a loop that feeds itself. The faster she attacks the sooner she refreshes, so Attack Speed is worth more to her than to any other Duelist.

What Nyx gains per rank

A hero climbs C → B → A → S — 3 upgrades in all. Every stat rises at the same rate on every hero, with one exception: the primary stat of the class rises three to four times faster. For Nyx that stat is Attack speed.
