How to play
Decision notes for shops and formation — not a copy of the in-game panel.
Early
Excellent first or second pickup when packs punish fragile openers. Buy Defense so the cloud hurts; do not expect her to delete elites alone.
Mid
Spicy = auto-attack multiplies existing Debuffs. Seasoned = bigger/longer cloud plus Tank/Mage Defense after Stall. Lover = permanent AS for heroes directly behind her (huge with Sal). Pick based on whether you want personal shred, team peel, or a fixed formation pair.
Late
Keep Stall/Defense coming. Pair Debuff relics so Spicy has stacks to amplify. With Lover, lock Sal (or another carry) in the tile behind her.
Positioning
True front-center on the engage path. Lover only pays if someone valuable stands in the tile directly behind — check formation every fight.

Abilities
Kit text from the Demo dump, plus short notes on how to play around each ability.
Active
Pepper Spray
activeCreate a poison cloud around Pimenta for 4.1 seconds. Each second, deal 4.1 (+ 50% Magic , + 410% Defense ) damage and inflict 1 (+ 100% Defense ) Poison to enemies in the poison cloud. Each second after Stall (1), gain 0 (+ 0% rank ) HP/S per enemy in the poison cloud.
In practice: The cloud is her job. More Defense means more Poison and tick damage — itemize tank stats before Magic greed.
Passives
The Spicy
passiveOn auto attack, for each type of Debuff on the target inflict 1 (+ 0% rank ) more of that Debuff and deal 1 per 20 Attack Speed bonus damage.
In practice: Lean into Debuff — itemize the stats this ability already scales with.
The Seasoned
passivePepper Spray expands in size and lasts 1 second longer. After Stall (1), Tanks and Mages gain 1 (+ 0% rank ) Defense. Backup.
In practice: Values Stall tempo — stall-trigger relics and a board that lives into mid-fight pay off.
The Lover
passiveAt start of combat, Heroes directly behind Pimenta permanently gain 1 Attack Speed. Sal gains 0 more.
In practice: Lean into Attack Speed — itemize the stats this ability already scales with.
Specializations
Rank B paths that reshape how Pimenta scales through a run.
The Spicy
On auto attack, for each type of Debuff on the target inflict 1 (+ 0% rank ) more of that Debuff and deal 1 per 20 Attack Speed bonus damage.
When to pick: Take when enemies already wear Debuffs (Poison/Frost/Burn boards). She shreds stacked targets on autos.
The Seasoned

The Lover
At start of combat, Heroes directly behind Pimenta permanently gain 1 Attack Speed. Sal gains 0 more.
When to pick: Formation path with Sal synergy. Take only if you will keep a carry directly behind her every combat.

FAQ
Common questions when this hero shows up in the shop or draft.
Is Pimenta good in Guildrun?
Yes as a front-line anchor. No as your only damage. Shop rule: buy her to stop dying early, then add a carry.
What class is Pimenta?
Tank. Role focus: Poison cloud frontliner and formation anchor (especially with Lover + Sal).
What relics work with Pimenta?
Tank Patience/Invigoration pieces, defensive amplifiers, and Debuff enablers if you took Spicy.
How do you play Pimenta?
Park her on first contact, stack Defense, let Pepper Spray cook, and either widen the cloud (Seasoned) or lock a carry behind her (Lover).
Tips
- Lover without a hero behind her is a wasted Rank B — move someone or respec fantasy.
- If the cloud is empty, you misplaced the fight — fix pathing before buying more damage relics.
