Netmarble is continuing the hype for their popular ACGN turn-based RPG Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross by releasing part 2 of their Holy Festival. The update was released on the English version on 30th March. Let’s take a look at the details of this update!

This update gives all the information on Holy Festival Part 2 as well as some new heroes and skins. Magic Weapon MK 2 Valenti and Oceanic Harmonizer Noblesse Eastin are scheduled to release with their select banner. Along with MK2 Valenti, her costume sets will also be available to buy. Final Boss Trio of troublemaker’s event will also be active!

MK 2 Valenti and Noblesse Eastin

MK 2 Magic Weapon Valenti and Noblesse Eastin are the 2 new SSR heroes coming to 7DS: Grand Cross. MK 2 Valenti is a Green attribute HP-type champion who specializes in attacking. She is mainly a brawler and good at dealing huge AOE damage while increasing her survivability.  Her passive Inventor of the Era allows her to increase her Critical Damage and Pierce Rate equal to 50% of her Crit Resistance. This passive gets active the moment she enters a battle. Let’s study her skills a bit more in detail:-

1. Chain Reaction

Rank 1: Inflicts Sever damage equal to 120% of Attack on all enemies.

Rank 2: Inflicts Sever damage equal to 180% of Attack on all enemies.

Rank 3: Inflicts Sever damage equal to 300% of Attack on all enemies.

2. Focus! Rocket Punch

Rank 1: Inflicts damage equal to 160% of Attack on a single enemy. Nullifies all skill effects including Ultimate Moves for 1 turn(s). (Excluding Stance and Recovery Skills)

Rank 2: Inflicts damage equal to 240% of Attack on a single enemy. Nullify all skill effects including Ultimate Moves for 1 turn(s). (Excluding Stance and Recovery Skills)

Rank 3: Inflicts damage equal to 400% of Attack on a single enemy. Nullify all skill effects including Ultimate Moves for 2 turn(s). (Excluding Stance and Recovery Skills)

3. Event Horizon (Ultimate Move)

Increases damage dealt by 50% and decreases damage taken by 50% for 3 turn(s). Inflicts damage equal to 350% of Attack on all enemies. Her multipliers increase by the following:350/385/420/455/490/525%

Her Association effects can be unlocked by pairing her with KungFu Red Diane (DEFENSE +340), Matrona Blue Diane (DEFENSE + 340), Creation Green Diane (DEFENSE + 340), Doombringer Green Lilia (Crit Resistance +24.6%), and Mastermind Blue Lilia (Crit Resistance +24.6%)

Red Noblesse Eastin, on the other hand, is a Support Type champion who specializes in providing buffs to the survivability of the team as well as cleansing all debuffs on allies. Her passive Song of the Sea decreases damage taken by single attacks by 6% for each of The Seven Catastrophe heroes present in the team, including the substitute slot.

Hence, she can reduce up to 24% single target incoming damage if she has 3 other heroes from The Seven Catastrophe. Let’s study her skillset in more details:
