Botzu's Quick Evaluation

+ Great crowd control for a tactician vanguard
+ Sleep is a rare status effect and she can apply it liberally
+ S1: Great DP recovery for a tactician vanguard (but still poor for vanguards as a class). Great for healing up between rounds as the skill effect holds until her summon is attacked.
+ S2: Great crowd control allowing you to chain sleep an enemy. Good synergy with other operators that can sleep or attack sleeping targets. Fast recharge with moderate DP recovery.
- S1: Its attack buffs are not that impressive as hypnos has fairly weak base ATK.
- S2: The AOE of hypnos' sleep is very small and easy to miss if enemies are not right next to it. not effective against targets immune to sleep.

Operator Overview

Blacknight is a bounty hunter who fights alongside a trained baku—sorry, a trained “Wasteland Long-snouted Slumberfoot.” She has a running challenge for her fellow Rhodes Island Operators: any Operator who challenges Blacknight and makes it through her trapped obstacle course without falling asleep will be allowed to take the Slumberfoot back to their dormitory for an excellent night’s sleep. But so far, nobody has been able to succeed. This is unsurprising, considering that Blacknight is a 5* Tactician Vanguard who specializes in inflicting Sleep.

Tactician Vanguards are ranged units who can place a summoned minion on a “tactical point” within their attack range. Blacknight’s minion is, of course, her Slumberfoot, who is both adorable and the focus of Blacknight’s Skills. Her S1, Drowsy, instantly generates DP and causes the Slumberfoot to fall asleep, rapidly regenerating HP. If it receives damage while asleep, the Slumberfoot wakes up in a foul mood, giving itself an ATK and ASPD boost for the next several seconds. In contrast, the Peaceful Slumber S2 inflicts Sleep on all ground enemies around the Slumberfoot and changes the Slumberfoot's attacks into Arts-based splash attacks that do bonus damage to Sleeping targets. Peaceful Slumber can hold multiple charges and generates a small amount of DP with each usage, making it a stunningly effective stalling Skill.

Blacknight is a monster when used alongside other Sleep-focused Operators. The spammable nature of Peaceful Slumber allows Blacknight to keep enemies stalled out in Sleep for a very long time, and if the rest of your squad can take advantage of this (i.e., Blemishine’s ability to attack Sleeping foes), it can lead to an easy win. Even on her own merits, Blacknight is a versatile ally: she can attack at range, Block on the ground, switch between Physical and Arts damage, and stall enemies for several seconds without any assistance. Don’t bet against this Slumberfoot—the experience is likely to be nightmarish.

Newbie Tier List Explanation

Despite being stronger than Beanstalk generally, Blacknight's sleep-centric niche might be hard to utilize for newer players, as it will often cut into their actual DPS for no real gain (since Sleeping enemies cant be attacked by most operators), and they will not have anything difficult enough to make sleep-stalling worth it.

Skill Discussion

Mastery
Story
Advanced
Roguelike
S2M3 S- S+ A+

Blacknight's main skill is her S2. It is the centerpiece of the pseudo-meta sleep stall strategy that has occasionally arisen. But even outside of that it is a strong skill with a very high uptime stall on a low DP cost unit, even if she is operating alone. She has a ton of value as an early hold unit, especially considering her rarity, and holds her value as the stage progresses. Her M3 Mastery is quite important to that end, though the M1 and M2 are somewhat mediocre alone, so be sure to go all the way with her Masteries.

In previous versions of this guide, Blacknight's S1 was a decently graded alternative, but it has since been removed. It might be something to consider still if you are using Blacknight over other, better, options. After all, it does have better DP generation and it improves her Slumberbeast’s combat prowess. However, her value ultimately lies in her S2. Even outside of sleep stall comps, S2 is the superior skill, being able to reliably stall many dangerous enemies at all phases of a stage. This makes S1 only worth it for Blacknight diehards.

Profile

Blacknight, bounty hunter, expert beast-tamer. Previously entered Yan territory on a commission, becoming familiar with Rhodes Island Operator Kroos in Shangshu City. Thereafter came to cooperate with Rhodes Island on referral from a local official, active on a variety of assignments within Yan's surroundings.

Long-snouted slumberfoots are widely distributed over the barrens. They typically live in arid, sandy areas, and mostly subsist on flying insects. Their digestive glands can secrete a special substance which has a soporific effect on nearby organisms.
The practice of catching long-snouted slumberfoots goes back a long time. After capturing them, people would extract the digestive fluid inside their bodies, separate the active agents, and create all manner of hypnogenic drugs. In the last decade, wild slumberfoots have gradually vanished from around nomadic cities, and more often than not can only be found deep in the barrens.
Wasteland long-snouted slumberfoots are docile and timid by nature, with keen hearing, quick movements, and a tendency to be hard to approach. They habitually avoid large animals, especially humans. Many merchants have thought their cute appearance suitable for domesticating into household pets, but all have ultimately failed.
To keep multiple wasteland slumberfoots as pets, and to successfully train them to complete multiple complex tasks, is without a doubt extremely difficult. Blacknight possesses a strong interest and extraordinary talent in beast-taming, which has led her to succeed where many ethologists would be hard-pressed.
'A little diligence when you approach, a little patience when you mingle, a little care when you catch them, and you're done, aren't you?' When talking about her own experiences in training beasts, Blacknight comes off as laid-back, as if she were describing how she brushes her teeth in the morning.
Based on observations, the way she and her slumberfoots interact is less like an owner and her pets, and more like a family. Perhaps, that is Blacknight's trick to raising wild animals.
Addendum: To prevent further unintentional 'abductions,' please remind all operators to take good care of their own pets the next time Blacknight reports back to the landship.
Further addendum: This goes for all inanimate 'pets' resembling small animals too.

Regarding the one who Blacknight refers to as 'old Bai,' the branch office has carried out some simple investigations, finding him to be an ordinary potter who has lived in Shangshu for many years.
But according to Blacknight, she first met Bai when he was an old storyteller following a merchant caravan she encountered when it was entering the barrens between Yan and Leithanien. At the time, she thought him merely an 'unjust moneybags,' and kidnapped him without thinking. The storyteller had no fear of the bandits whatsoever, even telling tales to her and her companions. She was very fond of these stories filled with accounts of Yan's sights and supernatural legends, and came to see him as an honest person, hardly the scoundrel she imagined. Not long after, she actively let him go.
Out of curiosity, she looked into the origins of the merchant caravan after parting ways, only then realizing that they'd provoked something much larger than themselves, and only escaped unharmed thanks to the storyteller not following up on them. After that, the young bounty hunter had not just respect for the storyteller, but a great deal of appreciation too. She enjoyed both the stories he told and the name he gave her, and has used the callsign Blacknight ever since, whether traveling the country or taking contracts with Rhodes Island.
Bounty hunters are always on the move, and Blacknight thought she would never meet him again. Not once did she imagine that she'd find herself catching wind of him many years later. This time, Mr. Bai was commissioning her to go to Shangshu City and retrieve an item. Blacknight only briefly asked for details on the location and appearance of the target before quickly heading on her way. She didn't ask what significance the item had, not only because of her professionalism as a bounty hunter, but also because of who was requesting it.
In no way did Blacknight consider working for Mr. Bai as returning a favor. She'd much rather say it was 'out of friendship.' Though she did refer to him as 'Tianshi Bai' in her conversations with us, we're inclined to believe that she pays no mind to Mr. Bai's true identity whatsoever. To Blacknight, whether Bai the tianshi, or Bai the potter, or the storyteller, they're all like 'Blacknight': nothing more than names used while traveling the country.

By Blacknight's own account, she was around ten years old when she wandered into a wasteland settlement and was adopted by a hunter couple. Life on the barrens, far from the shade provided by a nomadic city, is extremely dangerous. On top of evading the Catastrophes that might descend at any time, wastelanders must also endure encroachment from all manner of wild beast. Their greatest challenge, however, remains food and water. Long-term crop farming in the arid soil is practically impossible; a single gale or rainstorm will ruin any farmland with its accompanying Originium. People may be forced to starve for days at any moment. Under her parents' upbringing, Blacknight mastered many a wasteland survival skill. She can easily discern relatively safe terrain, the most filling fruits, the easiest beasts to catch, and the several warning signs of impending Catastrophes. But among all the knowledge her parents gave her, there's one thing she recalls most firmly: the most precious thing in the wild isn't water, food, or shelter from the wind and rain, it's companionship.
Clever wasteland beasts are never alone, and the people are the same. One person is weak in the face of the barrens, yet a group can traverse them. From the time she was thirteen, Blacknight led a group of the settlement's children to make a living as bounty hunters to survive. Relying on their familiarity with the wastes, they were able to take on missions that even adult hunters couldn't dream of seeing through, and quickly made a name for themselves in the region. This period of her life might seem a miserable plight to some, but Blacknight speaks of it with only pure joy, and a little pride.
When Blacknight registered at the branch office, recommendation letter in hand, it was apparent that the only ones accompanying her were her slumberfoots. Where did her companions go? This, she never told us. Following simple investigation, we found out she was presently carrying a tremendous debt. Combined with her past experience in the wasteland, we surmise that she and her companions most likely failed a job, offending someone they could not afford to. As the leader, there's a high probability that Blacknight took full responsibility for it, and left the team that had given her so many warm memories to avoid burdening her friends.
Whenever we see Blacknight huddling with her slumberfoots, talking to them or just staring off into the distance, we know that she misses her past companions. On one hand, we believe Blacknight and her partners will reunite sooner or later. On the other, we've all been very happy to observe Blacknight gradually dropping her guard, becoming willing to consider other operators as new companions instead of potential enemies. After all, who wants to step on any traps Blacknight leaves next to her seat at lunchtime?

When registering as a cooperating contractor, Blacknight gave 'wastelands' as her place of residence. However, she's never made a secret of being a Rim Billitonian. Not only does she speak the language fluently, she has given her slumberfoots a host of rather Billiton-style names. When she first called out for 'Drill' and 'Pick' in front of us, some operators genuinely thought she was going to be using those tools, which caused quite a few laughs.
From Blacknight's own descriptions, we've found that both her parents were mine workers in Rim Billiton. Miners catching Oripathy is not infrequent, and her parents were both unfortunately infected in a small accident. Not wanting to be bound by work contract to the even more arduous Infected mines, they took their young daughter and left with a caravan headed for Columbia.
For the entire trip, they kept describing to Blacknight what their new life in Columbia would be like: they'd get fairly priced medicine, freedom to open up the land, and a stable, happy life on fresh soil. Even as they both became critically ill, they never once despaired in front of their daughter. Though they were unable to reach Columbia alive, Blacknight will forever remember how her mum and dad's eyes shone when they discussed their future.
Many years later, Blacknight learned the reality of Columbia, and realized that her parents' dreams may not have been feasible. As she unfolded the map that came from her mother's hands, passed through her father's, and finally arrived in her own, she saw the marks drawn onto it one after another, plans written down line after line, and had an epiphany—what truly mattered back then was not Columbia, but the journey itself. Right until the very end, her mum and dad never regretted leaving Rim Billiton to travel through the wilds. To them, dying on the road, chasing after their dreams, far outshone spending what little they had left in the mines.
Her parents' determination has always stayed with her. Even as she scrambled through danger in the wastes, even as she found out she had Oripathy too, even as she got involved with a foe far stronger than herself, she's never stopped in her tracks. Just like the wild beasts of the wastelands, she chose to run free, and rush through every last day in her life.

How hard is it to tame a wasteland beast?
First, you must show you're tougher than them. They'll approach with care, feel you out, try and goad you. Fail this contest, and you'll find yourself the prey instead.
Once you proven you're tough, you have to establish dominance. When they follow your commands, you give them rewards. When they ignore them, you have to rein them in, hard.
And the most important thing is to build trust with them. You give them food and shelter, carry them through every danger as it comes. You have to let them know that being with you is how they'll live to see better days.
In the end, if you've succeeded, they'll come with you. They'll entrust you with their lives. And they'll grant you what's even more precious than that—their freedom and their dreams, so to speak.

Default
Appointed as Assistant Your files are all fully sorted. Hm? Was that fast? I wasn't dozing off on your last shift, after all. I have your whole workflow noted right inside my head.
Talk 1 Stop! You're triggering one of my traps. Move any further, and a bolt will blow your brains out. How could I fall asleep surrounded by traps? That's a strange question. I couldn't sleep at all without these little trinkets around me.
Talk 2 What we stole from the Leithanian nobles, they plundered from the land before that. We're the children of the wilds, but we are not unreasonable. Lungmen traders do good to others, and Siracusans keep to the rules, so I told my team not to lay a finger on them.
Talk 3 Is that Lee guy here too? He got me when I was careless, and now I want a rematch. No, no need to worry, none of the trinkets he carries interest me. You go tell him as much.
Talk after Promotion 1 Infected? Only city people would call themselves that. In the endless and cutthroat wilds, whether beast or human, survival means you can call yourself the strongest.
Talk after Promotion 2 There's plenty who think the wilds are a frightening place, but to me, they were my home. I made a mistake once. It torn my family apart, and these slumberfoots are the only ones left to roam with me. I'll never make a mistake like it again.
Talk after Trust Increase 1 The name Blacknight was given to me by a Yan storyteller. I always used to do my work at night, pulling the floor from under them when those merchants were drowsy. Me and my slumberfoots would take away their wealth, and 'devour' their dreams too.
Talk after Trust Increase 2 Don't act so nice to me... you never know when my crossbow will be aimed at your head. You don't believe I'm like that? Up to you, then. I've got no interest in dealing with a penniless good guy.
Talk after Trust Increase 3 They called me their boss. So I protected them, gave them food and a place to rest. But now, for as long as I haven't beaten you, you're my boss. I'll protect you, and I'll follow your orders.
Idle ...Fell asleep hugging Helmet? Light, bring a blanket over. Keep your movements low.
Onboard You're the best tactician on Rhodes Island? I'm Blacknight, and excuse me but we're going to need a showdown. If I lose, you'll be my boss from then on, and I ask to be trained properly.
Watching Battle Record Mm, all memorized. Anything else?
Promotion 1 You're not worried I'll take the bonus and run? I'm joking. For that matter, a badge like this won't fetch any real money anyway.
Promotion 2 Work and earn a living. I wonder if my parents lived a life like this in Rim Billiton? It's fine, but I'm not letting my crossbow rust.
Added to Squad Good timing. I need something to do.
Appointed as Squad Leader You want me leading? Then you'll want to watch how I do it.
Depart Listen up, darlings. Once we're on the battlefield, you need to listen to the Doctor too.
