Evolution: Medic

## Overview

Evolving Medic requires the Team Game challenge completed and a total of 150,000 Support kills.

The Evolution course of Medic mostly aims at increasing the dynamism of her kit and grant her an ability to strategically isolate a target from a pack, or diminish its threat

Even though the evolution increase most of her abilities efficiency, her damage output although faster remains the same, relying on her passive. Nikara can easily find a place in higher difficulties, but will be dependent on more fitted heroes to actually move forward into the waves.

Her Final Stage is General Nikara.

Nikara is the name of the mercenary Medic fighting alongside Tychus in Co-Op gamemode, see: Nikara
