Should you pull A2?
F2p should try to get one copy but remember that A2 is NOT. WORTH. 200 golden tickets.
Low spenders should at least get 1 copy. Mlb is up to discretion but it might be worth it for competitive reasons.
Why??
Well, A2's main purpose will be a DPS in solo raid since most of us believe that solo raid bosses will always have boss parts in the future. She has very decent damage output and surprisingly handles herself well in campaign. The main drawback is that using a healer is a MUST for this nikke as she kills herself very fucking fast to get her hp below 40%. Her uses in PvP have also diminished since what we expected from her was apparently too unrealistic : (
That's about it for her.

granite lynx
Let me use chatgpt
Certainly, A2 shines as a formidable solo raid DPS, a role we anticipate will remain crucial due to bosses featuring persistent boss parts. She delivers impressive damage and surprisingly holds her own in campaign missions. However, it's essential to note that she has a tendency to rapidly deplete her own HP, necessitating a dedicated healer. Regrettably, her once-promising prospects in PvP have dwindled, as our initial hopes for her proved overly optimistic. That sums up her current standing in the game.

2B get more from dupes
A2, not so much
dupes increase 2B's Max HP, more dps
if you can, go 3* 2B and max her bond story
Core 7 is for whale
vale mortar
Don't think bond ranks for A2 are gonna make a huge difference past 10? I've never actually looked into the math lmaooo
mystic olive
A2 is just like other attacker
her dupes just buff her a little bit
meanwhile 2B is different because she use MaxHP as her main source of dps
mystic olive
2B is one of the rare NIKKE that get benefit more from dupes, 3* is a good stopping point for both Lobby's screen and bond stories.
next cypress
Attacker Bond Levels:
10 - 403 attack
20- 988 attack
30- 1640 attack
It's quite minimal difference
stoic oxide
Okay I got A2 too now it seems. What is the general conssesus of her so far? Is it like with 2B where I need a unit like Mast for her to be good or is she S.Anis levels of good where she can be slotted with someone like Privaty and be okay?
next cypress
Also gotta remember that the higher your Nikke level is the less you get out of bond stats.
mystic olive
A2 fit any team that benefit pierce comp, the twin is her best team
next cypress
A2 needs a healer, that's pretty much it
mystic olive
Also gotta remember that the higher your Nikke level is the less you get out of ...
2B get benefit from level up due to RE Energy, increase 10 level per 20 levels of the NIKKE
next cypress
Most people will pair her with bunnies
stoic oxide
These are all the SSR I have.
mystic olive
well, any generic atk build is fine, with a healer
stoic oxide
I have no healer i think
next cypress
Then you're kinda SOL
stoic oxide
SOL?
next cypress
A2 really needs a healer
stoic oxide
what does that mean?
next cypress
shit out of luck
next cypress
Yep, because when her HP hits 40% her burst deactivates
mystic olive
a good investment healer
next cypress
Which is what makes her good in the first place
mystic olive
against Jellyfish enemies, A2 is out of luck
i mean it could hit either A2 or the healer, bring her dps down
next cypress
You do have Soda
stoic oxide
Who is a more accesible Healer I could use till I get someone better?
Like how Quency is the Mast for 2B?
A cheap Alternative?
next cypress
could try with her, not sure if she can keep up tho
mystic olive
Soda is not a healer, a niche supporter
scenic pulsar
not even yuni and smary combined could keep her up, is it bunny only?
scenic pulsar
how much does he heal for/
stoic oxide
I could do Soda/Pascal?
mystic olive
scenic pulsar
b1 40s
stoic oxide
so I just need to get all the copies for Pascal and slot him/her? with A2?
scenic pulsar
uhhhhh
mystic olive
try soda and pascal then
stoic oxide
like both of them at the same time?
mystic olive
"our tests showed that Soda's healing output is below that of Pepper, Rapunzel, and even Emma or Helm."
Soda max stacks on heal btw
You need A2 to stay healthy above 40%, so yeah try both of them
stoic oxide
but till I get a Pepper, Rapiunzel, Emma or helm, I can just do Soda or Pascal, no?
scenic pulsar
helm won't work, because mode b will go out by next burst

just test it in Shooting range

may as well

go into the shooting range to test, because i'm not even confident any healers outside bunny is going to work
mystic olive
You want Blanc/Noire, Rapunzel, Pepper, Smary
stoic oxide
when I get a healer, like Emma, Rapunzel etc, my A2 should be okay, no? As in she won't need someone like Mast or anyone specific like 2B does, no?
stoic oxide
You want Blanc/Noire, Rapunzel, Pepper, Smary
so once I get either of these options, I should be fine, no?
mystic olive
yeah, A2 should be fine
stoic oxide
yeah, A2 should be fine
Okay, so it is not a 2B situation where I either need Mast or Quency for the unit to be decent, thank god.
keen gale
I can't even understand the question
Usually we have 2 dps (B3) on each team right? so I'm looking to find the 3rd team cuz I have 5 good B3 and its and odd number (1 3 "5" 7 9 etc) (currently my team is Mo/Alice, S.Anis/Gui, 2B/?? so what I'm asking is can I place Modernia in 2b team and put A2 with Alice?
I'm not sure if I should ask this in here but since it have A2 in the question so I ask in both place 
My Alice team have bunny sisters btw so A2 should be fine but I wanna know if it worth it to swap modernia out to 2B team?
stoic oxide
These are all the SSR I have.
So how would a team with Soda and Pascal look for A2 with the units I have?

auto or manually?
manually i guess
scenic pulsar
yeah manual pepper
mystic olive
yup, auto is Anti-pepper
that salty
xD
Pepper is one of rare NIKKE that only manually can peak her dps and heal
scenic pulsar
ok, solo manual pepper can keep up mode B, gonna try auto pepper
mystic olive
ok, solo manual pepper can keep up mode B, gonna try auto pepper
it wont 
her heal drop a lot when auto
you can let auto A2 do the job, because well, you can't manually spam shot her anyway
scenic pulsar
you were right, lmao
fair depot
my 4th 10x roll just get me first coco copy. Destiny chose me 🔥
mystic olive
you were right, lmao
She has 9 ammo compared to 1 ammo manual
You can see the heal drop 70% already because she have to burn 9 ammo to heal, other just burn 1 ammo and heal
mystic olive
auto regular mary is doing it
well, Mary total healing is higher than Pepper, only HP potency is slightly lower.
But Pepper dps is no doubt

s1 seems to be lower priority. the explosion radius is overkill after some point against blacksmith.
the charge damage already starts at 66%. at level 5 it's already +86% and max is +110%

2b needs the spare body more than a2, yes?
maybe
2b is much more versatile in a sense that she doesn't need healer and her performance is consistent against all bosses (not dependent on parts)

so the need to invest in her burst is even more than on 2B? I heard most of 2B dmg comes from her burst as well so people is saying 2B burst need to be at 10 for maximum dmg

A2 needs whel healer if dupe
desert zenith
whel healer?
basically a propper invested healer
cause if her stats are higher she is harder to sustain
wary kernel
so its a drawback to dupe her?
serene juniper
most healers heal based on the healer's max hp so A2 having higher hp is harder to sustain
desert zenith
and unlike 2B A2 dosnt really benefit much with the stats increase like 2B does
2B benefit more cause theres 2 offensive stats to scale from , attack and HP (hp scales harder)
wary kernel
right cause shes all about splash damage
dull oracle
4/4/4 is good enough?
7/10/10
desert zenith
and yes A2 is niche with her splash mechanic at the current moment
desert zenith

7/7/7 is okay?
dull oracle
welcome to the club, the entire base even whales can't keep up
go bitch about that on the next survey they do

id be more willing to invest if so
desert zenith
i think she is ? iirc she hit all 5 enemy unit
dull oracle
also, no, 7/10/10 minimum
desert zenith
dont take it for granted
dull oracle
S2 is more damage obviously
desert zenith
burst of course it lowers A2 Hp reduction per tick and more buff
wary kernel
right but why is 10 minimum?
dull oracle
because you want more damage that's her whole point
wary kernel
is anything lower than 10 a significant difference?
dull oracle
yes
wary kernel
what im asking is is the difference gonig from say, 9 to 10 much more than going from 7 to 8?
dull oracle
that's like saying, is anything lower than 10 on S1 scarlet is a significant difference?
wary kernel
or is the difference linear?
serene juniper

so excuse the expectation.

its not
serene juniper
just look at it this way, A2's role is damage. anything to improve her damage is welcomed
wary kernel
i have my scarlet at 10 but every additional skill scales just as much as the previous skill
dull oracle
do what you want, I gave you my opinion lol
wary kernel
so thats my question, for a2 why are u saying 10 is minimum? is there a break point?
like how noir has 5 and 9 for skill 2 as break points because it grants an additional ammo
or is it linear scaling
serene juniper
wary kernel
u get what im asking?
dull oracle
for her to do "good" it's a 7/10/10 that's basically it
anything lower it's not good enough
wary kernel
right but why?
lets say going from 7/10/9 to 7/10/10 increases dps by like 5% for example, my question is. Going from 7/10/8 to 7/10/9, is that ALSO a 5% increase?
dull oracle
go do the testing on your own to figure out the why, sorry mate but I can't change your mind, do as you want
wary kernel
what im asking is the skill value increase linear?
i mean u can say you dont know, thats okay too lol
fair depot
7/7/7 is fine her damage will be good just need 2 boss parts. good OL lines are more important
wary kernel
but when u say 7/10/10 minimum, u make it sound like i shouldnt even invest in her at all unless i have 7/10/10
scarlet cradle
Anyone tried mast + A2 and see how fast she burn her HP? XD
winter ridge
why do i need 10 on s2 and burst?
For Burst, it lowers her hp drain so you want the skill as high as possible so you don't have to invest as much into your designated healer.
For S2, it's gives her the highest amount of scaling, so that takes priority.
You can get away with 7/7/7 but her s2 scales so well that pushing to 10 is worth it.
serene juniper
mast burst alone will probably bring A2 to 60% max hp
so you only have around 7-8 seconds to fill it back up

The only thing I disagree with sky is Rapunzel. I think she works well enough. But my A2 is in welfare mode so I guess the better she is the more shakey Rapunzel gets.

7/10/10 is the sweet spot (for most players)
and 10/10/10 for all out whale
dull oracle
btw how is elemental damage modifier calculated?
like is it different from element damage?
spiral sedge
i watched skyjlv analysis and he said A2 basic investment is 4/7/7
ah thanks, Sky guy definitely better than Kisenix 
serene juniper
btw how is elemental damage modifier calculated?
if you have 23.65% element damage OL line, it just adds to the base 10% element advantage to 33.65%
which is a separate multiplier in damage calculation
dull oracle
but it's only and effective and dependent to element advantage correct? So it does 34% more damage on advantage element
but for the rest, it doesn't do anything?
that's anotherthing about the game, overloading rerolls are quite the problem

but for the rest, it doesn't do anything?
yes
only against matching elements
in the near future, union raids may need element damage coordination for min maxing/speed against other unions

honestly, I don't think it's a bad thing she can just be put on Bunnies

she benefits a lot from them
Bunnies, Liter, A2 and Alice seems pretty solid

if i were to use S Mary (not MLB) how high would the skills need to be to use with A2?
i keep hitting a small gap right before burst so idk

Smary should be comfortable, but if you notice it's not, then level up her healing
also max A2's Burst to level 10 to help the healer

Excuse me
A2 is good
Then Guillo is bad
Revision:
7/7/5 -> 7/7/7 (burst 7 if no LB)
For A2
This is only applicable to charge speed builds
azure temple
granite lynx
Upgrade 2B to 7 first, then A2 to 7.
That's the recommendation.
A2 is 7/7/10 for tryhards.
Assuming 15% chg spd base
And with 10% from alice
That's around 0.75
Let me show u the maths
From 5 to 10, you get 7.14% charge speed.
(0.75 * 19 + 1.05 + 0.23333) - (0.68 * 19 + 1.05 + 0.23333) / (0.75 * 19 + 1.05 + 0.23333)
Let's take account of Liter and Noir buff, averaging at 19 ammo.
This results in 14% damage boost.
The exact number is 14.618952336%.
For me, that doesn't scale as much as 2B.

A2 is dps, ideally want investments, but
"Upgrades are irreversible and risky", and collab has no rerun

you're only really losing the custom modules
losing the t9m abnormal is irrelevant and skills can be reset later

so, investing in 2B is better than A2? 
mild escarp

Your meta team should still be better then them
mild kindle
I think it depends on what your goal is with the 2
A2 is much better for newer players to invest into assuming they can run a healer
2B is better as a endgame DPS unit for raid content
since A2 kinda relies on bosses having 2+ parts
edgy oriole
all I can think off is landeater 💀

Your meta team should still be better then them
not even 3rd team? 💀

if your meta team hasnt already invested, then a2 can be your 3rd, as she demands pretty high skill investment
solid rover
The more they add units that can destroy parts the more apparent the design flaw of "if you break enough parts the boss will enrage" is
Like how tf do you have modernia simultaneously have a enrage if you dont break her parts and at the exact same time enrage if you break her parts
Koreans always sucked when it came to sensible balancing decisions. That's why half the korean mmo industry is dead

Thats how it is with korean game design. They rely so heavily on stat grinding and making the difficulty be locked behind how good your ability is to suffer through endless grinding they tend to forget the core design of the actual content matters
mild kindle
Yeah agreed
solid rover
The result in this case being a boss that is so contradictory in mechanics most players just result in simply shooting modernia everywhere but her core parts because it will run the timer down if you do otherwise
All of that, and some genius decided to go "yooo we need more units that break boss parts"
i cant

It would've made more sense too if breaking his head part dealt significant damage to him in tradeoff for the enrage. Similar to harvester
But nah. That would make a lil too much sense
If your mechanics make sense then that means players can use logic to clear content and won't focus on brute forcing it with stats and grinding
