How Pimenta fits a formation
Pimenta is a Tank built around front-line poison tank and formation anchor. The unit behind Pimenta matters as much as her own items. Align the formation so her fixed positional bonus reaches the carry.
Pimenta base stats
Derived comparison values
EHP and EOFF are comparison composites; Sec / cast estimates a passive mana-fill interval. They help compare records but are not separate in-game stats.
Pimenta ranks
Draft a duplicate of Pimenta or use an eligible campfire event to rank up. Rank B chooses a fixed specialization; Rank A and S draft from the active class modifier pool.
Rank C
The base stat line starts with the active ability equipped.
Pepper Spray
Create a poison cloud around Pimenta for 4 seconds. Each second, deal 5 (+ 50% Magic , + 50% Defense ) damage and inflict 2 (+ 1 per 25 Defense ) Poison to enemies in the poison cloud. Each second after Stall ( 15 ), gain 3 (+2 per rank ) HP/S per enemy in the poison cloud.
Rank B
The first rank-up also chooses one of three fixed specializations. A path can add a class and change later offers.
The Spicy
+ DuelistOn auto attack, for each type of Debuff on the target inflict 2 (+1 per rank ) more of that Debuff and deal 10 (+ 75% Attack Speed ) bonus damage .
The Seasoned
+ MagePepper Spray expands in size and lasts 1 second longer. After Stall ( 15 ), Tanks and Mages gain 20 (+20 per rank ) Defense . Backup.
The Lover
At start of combat, Heroes directly behind Pimenta permanently gain 15 Attack Speed . Sal gains 15 more.
Rank A
Gain the stat package above, then choose from modifiers generated by Pimenta's active class set.
Rank S
Gain the stat package a final time and draft the last class modifier to complete the current Demo build.
Possible class modifiers
Later ranks offer modifiers from the hero's active class pool. Multiclass heroes receive a split offer set, so both class groups should contain useful outcomes before committing.

How to build around Pimenta
- Preserve the first job.Make sure Pimenta can already perform the role described above before adding a second engine.
- Choose a repeatable trigger.Match the specialization to an effect the current team can activate every fight.
- Protect the delivery condition.Range, mana, survival, and target access usually matter before another damage multiplier.
- Read the later pool.Choose an added class only when its Rank A/S modifier outcomes support the same plan.

Pimenta lore
“If they want you, they'll have to go through me.”
Guild profile
Guild Gaia Project - “Fight for tomorrow, not just today.” Grab a drink and raid some Rifts. Stall for more drinks, debuff on the morning after.
Background
She's the guardian who plants herself in front of her people to protect them. The poison spreads from her, buying everyone the time they need. She met Sal on the Gaia forum, trading notes, and after six months of bickering they noticed they were writing love letters. Their shared goal, once the crisis ends: a cottage with a rose garden.
Motivation
She and Sal want one thing answered: does your guild have a real chance of ending this? Gaia takes fewer contracts than the big names, and at this rate the cottage stays a long way off. Gaia is family, so they'll never fully leave. But move the clock forward, and they're with you.
