Gemsnail – Rock DPS

In-game bio: “After hearing about a flower near the mudflats out east, Gemsnail set out at dawn to see it and finally arrived by nightfall. Turns out, the flower only blooms at night. Slow and steady is the way to go.”

How to use Gemsnail

Deploy Gemsnail in the back row, behind a Tank or Guardian, so it can fire the whole lane. As a Rock Tatari it should face Lightning Zobos and avoid lanes with Grass Zobos — the game shows a green thumb when the match-up is right. Its skill hits an area, so it likes lanes where Zobos bunch up. Gemsnail is T2 — the line gets its full kit at Crystalsnail, so treat this form as a stepping stone.

Tier verdict for the Shardsnail line (B): Summons a Crystal Cluster that inherits its high DEF and tanks ahead of the front row; wiki notes it deals less damage than peers, so it is a utility pick.

Shardsnail line Horde Invasion skills

In Zobo Horde Invasion every Tatari learns three extra skills at Horde levels 3, 5 and 7; they are shared by the whole Shardsnail line (only the base skill differs per form).

BaseCrystal Cluster: Launches crystal shards. Summons a crystal cluster at the start of the battle.
Level 3Gem Cluster: Periodically summons attackable gem clusters that continuously deal damage to enemies.
Level 5Gem Burst: Uses gem clusters to deal large AoE damage to surrounding enemies. If none exist, summons one before attacking.
Level 7Gem Resonance: Launches gem pieces that deal large AoE damage on hit and inflict Crystallized. Any gem clusters within range will resonate, repeating the effect.
