Reverse 1999: Diggers Meta Build - Mental DMG & Debuff Mastery
Diggers excels as a 5-star Plant Afflatus support in Reverse: 1999, specializing in Mental DMG output alongside potent debuffs that amplify team damage.
His kit focuses on DEF shred, enemy weakening, and shields, making him a meta staple for Mental-focused teams. This build optimizes him for sub-DPS roles, maximizing debuff uptime and Mental DMG synergy.
Skill Breakdown
Diggers' skills emphasize single-target Mental bursts with stacking debuffs and AoE DEF reduction. His S1, Peace Above All (or Peace First), deals up to 400% Mental DMG at max level and applies [Weakness], reducing enemy DMG Bonus by 25% per stack when they attack.
S2, Bubblism, hits all enemies with -15% Reality and Mental DEF for 2 rounds, plus [Terror] on the main target to drain Moxie by 1 per round end. Ultimate, Close Your Eyes, Sweet Dreams Are Coming, delivers high Mental DMG and [Nightmare] control, stunning foes for 2 rounds if they have prior debuffs.
Best Psychubes dan Resonance
Prioritize Psychubes that boost Mental DMG, debuff potency, and energy for frequent skill spam. Top picks include:
His Bounden Duty: Enhances DMG after debuffs, ideal for chaining Weakness and Terror.
Luxurious Leisure: Increases crit rate on debuffed enemies, synergizing with his universal DEF shred.
Insight levels amplify these: I3 adds team shields via Bubble Parade, boosting his DMG Dealt by 8% while protecting allies.
Team Compositions
Diggers thrives in Mental DMG teams as a debuff enabler for carries. Use him early to apply Bubblism for DEF shred, then follow with DPS.

Stat Priority & Resonance
Focus Resonance on Mental DMG, ATK%, Crit Rate, and Speed for debuff application. Aim for 200+ Speed to cycle Bubblism first. Key stats:

Psychube Main: ATK% or Mental DMG%.
Substats: Crit DMG > Energy Regen > DMG Dealt.
This setup ensures 15% DEF shred uptime, amplifying team Mental DMG by 20-30% in meta play. Test in Limbo for tweaks.
