✦ Rarity · Rare — "Hired specifically to make Anubis faster"

Desert Empress is the most narrowly targeted partner skill in the game: it speeds up Anubis specifically, by 20–40% at base, and adds another 30–60% crafting bonus if Sekhmet is itself standing at a Workbench or Workshop. A designated support act for one named colleague.

Partner skill

Desert Empress — "While at base, boosts Anubis's work speed by (20~40)%. Increases efficiency by (30~60)% if Sekhmet is also working at a Workbench, Workshop, or other related facilities. (Does not stack)" It does nothing for anyone else. If Anubis is not in your base, Sekhmet is just a Handiwork 6 Pal — a good one, but not this one.

The story of Sekhmet

"Once a fierce creature feared as a symbol of death. When Anubis claimed that mantle, wealthy elites looking for a replacement beguiled the species with wine. Before long, Sekhmet became a symbol of high nobility."

It used to be the feared symbol of death — and then Anubis took that title. The Paldeck says wealthy elites, shopping for a replacement, simply bribed the species into the role with wine. Its partner skill buffing Anubis specifically reads very differently once you know it lost the job to him.

Field notes

— from the log of a Pal keeper

Paired it with Anubis at the bench and the crafting queue visibly moved faster.

Lv 37–42 in the desert makes it an easy mid-game pickup. Get it before you need it.

Bought one off the Black Marketeer at 41% rather than sweep the dunes again.
