Oh ok

deft obsidian
#

Are you sync 400 or higher?

sand trellis
#

yeah

#

I'm 427

deft obsidian
#

kk

exotic forum
#

is cindy used in every regular mob stage in campaign if electric weak

sand trellis
#

my cindy for ref

deft obsidian
#

She may need more ATK rolls, or it may not be possible

sand trellis
#

I'm gonna give it another go and only use cindy to ensure that it's only her hitting

deft obsidian
#

Sadly additional damage procs don't work for the slippers

sand trellis
#

team for ref

deft obsidian
#

Has to be the initial hit

exotic forum
#

another thing for me to consider is

sand trellis
#

wait wait

exotic forum
#

rn I'm going for 3 ele 4 atk 1 ammo, shouldn't be that expensive, if I wanna attempt for 4 ele, I gotta shell out more rocks

sand trellis
#

I just saw a mirror come out on its own, and it only took one shot and fell over

exotic forum
#

kinda fcked by this piece

sand trellis
#

it was unmarked but it died instantly

exotic forum
sand trellis
#

is that the mirror I need to be hitting?

deft obsidian
exotic forum
#

if I go with 3 ele then I just need to reroll value on that ammo

sand trellis
#

yea

#

phase 1

deft obsidian
#

Oh, those are fragile

#

All they do is shoot

#

It's the phase 2 ones that are the issue

exotic forum
#

if 4 ele I need to complete reroll it, and get triple line or at least ele + ammo for 4 ele 3 atk

#

with crown and maybe a bit of covering you just facetank the phase 1s

#

if anything shooting them down I think speeds up phase 2, so you get less dmg overall since no def buff in phase 1

toxic wren
#

Why is this thread still active

sand trellis
#

I tapped it, it shrieked and closed back up

toxic wren
#

Kill it

deft obsidian
#

I broke it

#

It was during Cindy's burst tho. We'll see how the next one goes

exotic forum
#

forgsip honestly just use ein

#

way easier

#

and can do it off-burst

deft obsidian
#

Ein needs to be very strong to break off-burst

exotic forum
#

maybe in higher lvls, but in like lvl 5/6 she can break it off-burst easily

oak cargo
#

This is AI

exotic forum
#

yeah ik

oak cargo
#

Ez ein tap off burst

exotic forum
#

my ein has like about 50% ele

deft obsidian
#

My 92% Ein needs a full charge to break off burst

sand trellis
#

so I hit it with a cindy hit, and it shrieks and then closes it

exotic forum
#

only sync 330s

sand trellis
#

is that breaking?

exotic forum
#

big shatter sound and the slipper instantly disappears if it breaks

#

if it closes you failed

sand trellis
#

yeah that's what's happening

#

oh

deft obsidian
sand trellis
#

so the blue shit goes away too

deft obsidian
#

Check the top of the screen

#

If there are four shield buffs, you've failed

sand trellis
#

I see i see

oak cargo
sand trellis
#

so I broke "one"

exotic forum
#

although I swear the hitboxes on the slippers are wonky

sand trellis
#

basically it needs a full charge burst hit to pop one

#

and if I break all 4 the shield goes down?

deft obsidian
exotic forum
#

when using ein or rh (burst) I feel like I gotta aim closer to the tip of the slippers

#

or else the slippers take no dmg and it still counts as a hit

#

probably hitting the fat body hitbox or something

sand trellis
#

gonna try MW burst

#

that's a fat shot

deft obsidian
#

But yeah, Cindy can break them

#

Good to know

#

Maxwell burst can only be used for one of the four yabai

#

Maybe two depending on timing

#

But yeah, I just use Ein because I can delul

#

She's my strongest electric unit aside from having garbage ATK rolls

potent sapphire
#

also better cover your whole team while breaking this shit

#

cause they tend to ruin it

#

you can dmg it only once

sand trellis
#

maxwell works pretty well

exotic forum
#

ein's true dmg helps a lot as well I think

sand trellis
#

just for proof of concept

deft obsidian
#

Yeah, Ein was literally built for MC

#

Same for S Sakura working very well for Kraken

exotic forum
#

if your ein can't 1 tap, maybe it's this

sand trellis
#

cindy works great on auto now and you can cover her or hold her burst to do double (maxwell)

exotic forum
#

normally I let my ein auto bc I manual rh

#

so my ein always gets that bonus when I switch to her for slipper

deft obsidian
#

My Ein doesn't struggle with full charges kek

#

It's quick shots that don't work outside of burst

#

During burst I don't need to charge

exotic forum
#

ofc quick shots won't work

deft obsidian
#

Meanwhile RH doesn't care in the slightest

exotic forum
#

I full charge ein outside of burst

#

my rh is super buggy, cannot continuously fire without triggering the slipper bug

#

need to cover her as well

#

then do a shot when it's open

deft obsidian
#

I've never tried her for AI MC tho

exotic forum
#

when I had to farm MC back in the day, it takes an avg of 2-3 resets a day

#

bc of how many times the bug happens

#

so annoying

I got a much better reroll for cindy. This is my 2nd ele slot

#

ayooo damn she managed to hit by mistake good for you girl

Cindy required different angle to hit them lol

#

Were there finalized numbers on how worthwhile S2 from 7 to 10 is?

#

I see that pins recommend 10/10/10 for final thonk

#

Last I saw her S2 seemed about as worthwhile to 10 as X Lud's kek

exotic forum
#

but still gain

#

prob have to calc it for your own situation

#

iirc for me it's like 1% gain or less

deft obsidian
#

Guess I'll wait until how my initial SR score goes

#

I'll upgrade past 7 if I need a boost

#

Otherwise I'd really like to get back to reinforcing PvP units

is there any more of cindy bug that haven't been taken care of?

# twin hornet 10/7/7 fine?

s1 can be at 7 and u adjust it up if u see u need more cdr at some point, the other just up if u need bit of damage to finish off sth

exotic forum
#

yup cindy's good enough for them

#

no more fixes (except maybe decoy fix they said will be coming later iirc)

plucky rampart
#

The one where its redirect damage to ally in pos 3 and pos 5

exotic forum
#

they never said they fixed it with the latest cindy fix iirc

#

so it's prob coming at some point

#

ig low prio since it doesn't really affect SR much

#

since with rouge, cindy is on front row so no issue

#

just hoping it also fixes her target skip issue in pvp

gloomy quartz
#

I guess the only reason behemoth is so big that cindy can’t miss a hit

molten oak
#

well electric weak bosses are big and coreless

#

Or they have hidden core like train

gloomy quartz
#

I’m too lazy to reset cindy so I can tune her s2 down from 10 to 7

#

fuck it

#

It’s not like I invest in other units anyways

#

I’ll just hoard mats till ny pilgrim

fallen quartz
#

As long as they don't stop fixing, i'm glad

#

who know if future bosses make her bug worst...

molten oak
#

ngl Cindy is the massive DMG on electric element who we needed

#

Ein+sanis is good but not enough

heavy scaffold
fallen quartz
#

Rogue is better than Liter, but like my rogue is 1* while liter is core 7

#

so when I use rogue, it cut a lot of power.

Oh, i thought they were going to change cinderella's base twintail standing pose

# oak cargo

The best is when you get all the same lines but worse PomieRofl

north marsh
#

something like that

#

First, it's just a theoretical I just made it all up

#

Second, alice is the best non-pilgrim in the game, but far from the best unit overall.

oak cargo
#

cute

north marsh
#

Honestly I wouldn't even mind if not all elements were equal at DPS, as long as they all bring something valid to the table

molten oak
#

Alice creep when?

north marsh
molten oak
#

nah is ok

#

I want more flexibility for sbs

#

Synergy wind fire is weird

north marsh
#

so what's the meta Cindy team

molten oak
#

She+her slaves

cedar hull
#

btw is crit dmg op with cindy?

#

it has been so long ive seen crit dmg to be recommended

#

XD

oak cargo
#

MC chap32, the first 2 dudes attempted today just ditch rouge for liter, she aint going anywhere even on cindy best comps MutsukiCurse

molten oak
#

Bro's learning french

#

Aldarn said no

#

But yeah those 2

ripe abyss
#

C4 Cindy, one Grave copy, 108 gems and 366 mileage left. Not gonna lie, tempted to try for a max Cindy

oak cargo
#

No

#

Its for the double qte

#

when u lowball and your Ein doesnt have good atk line

#

she cant destroy those 2

#

the Cover breaks really fast especially Sanis

#

but its not a problem that requires liter

#

those 2 definitely has low atk stat on ein

#

and they used liter to buff over that faulty

dusky niche
# oak cargo

do you have enough max ammo already?
I'd lock 2nd + 3rd Doro

oak cargo
#

i have like 4 bro verysadge

#

i would reroll this away and get atk and maybe crit

exotic forum
#

forgsip this piece gonna be expensive

#

I'm thinking perm lock the max ammo, and temp lock the atk, might decide to reroll % the atk alongside future line 1 ele, plus it would also save 1 gem per reroll if I leave it unlocked in the future

simple dock
#

any other piece to fix beside this ?

exotic forum
#

but if I can get this piece right, the other pieces just need ele and atk

#

2 of them already got line 2 or 3 of one of them, just need to hunt for line 1

#

I got another piece with line 1 blue atk and line 3 ammo

#

probably need to full reroll it to get atk or ele on line 2 or 3

#

unless I wanna gamble on an expensive locked reroll for line 2 or 3 ele

gloomy quartz
#

I don’t know how I wound up with so many crit rates RougeStare

#

Which part should I focus on fixing

primal inlet
#

would u lock attack/ele second lines?

molten oak
#

Or more simply their rouge is not well invested (cuz she's expensive af) and liter is the best second choice

maiden thicket
muted folio
#

Is this still relevant?

toxic wren

sounds like I'd have to pull

molten oak

Imagine skipping big electric powercreep

stone urchin
#

Cindy pepega aim is helpful sometimes

#

she automaticaally destroy the bullet of the boss

#

no need to aim there

gloomy quartz
#

Just hope all bosses are yuge like behemoth

#

Can’t miss

wheat vault
#

when are they adding tiny ass boss for the next mg pilgrim

modest nest
#

it doesn't miss like that

#

should have said: When they create part that are blocked by body

#

good luck breaking it with curvy shots

#

she missed af at close range of landeater core deadge

#

Is vigor cube good for cindy

#

which cube to use

toxic wren
heavy scaffold
#

cinder needs 4 ammos?

pliant plover
#

lol no

#

1 is enough

stoic raptor
#

Vigor can be best cube if it's the same lvl or higher which not many haves

deft obsidian
#

Around 50 ammo was actually perfect for co-op kek

#

Using Liter, I pretty much always reloaded in-between bursts

oak cargo
#

8 rocks for 2 more atk lines Doro

exotic turret
#

anyone know how much ammo% u need for no reload

remote thunder
#

200%

crude oasis
#

Infinite noreload is possible? TOMstare

#

200%... doable

#

But why?

Oh lord, that's a bit of copium that the defense is in the 3rd slot RapunzelWTF

Poor Cindy will be stuck with that DEF for quite awhile. So many units, not many rocks. It do be that way

#

Good for CP at least Copium

# ripe abyss >.>

Yall be showing bad rolls and theres me who cant move from 1/4 ol equips to 2/4 in 2 weeks in a row

#

It feels like playing a nerfed cindydeadge

simple dock
#

Is there a thread for the next way to build Cindy?

subtle oxide
tight prism
#

prydwen ranking modernia and asuka higher then cinderella for campaign makes me sad 😦

#

was building her for campaign pushing to

modest nest
#

build her yourself and test

#

you can still reset her, not the rock though

#

do it a few more times till you are broken then start believing Prydwen then

deft obsidian
#

Need to build her for raids anyway akkoShrug

#

She's not getting powercreeped out of electric for a long time

fallen quartz
#

in campaign, you can still use her

toxic wren
fallen quartz
#

Modernia has fixed targets, meaning her dps can't be diluted.

tight prism
wind cloak
#

Same chest piece again, and I got a black slot for ammo

trail vigil
#

i keep chasing an ele line

#

but crit rate keeps mocking me

shrewd bloom
#

4x ele achieved MustangFabulous

subtle oxide
#

I have shit lines so far. 1x Ammo is the only good thing I have.

heavy scaffold
#

do I delete ammo if I got already 2 lines?

oak cargo
#

I did

#

I got 4 ammo now down to 2 cuz would be too expensive

#

Both ammo 3rd line together with ele 2nd

shrewd bloom
heavy scaffold
wind cloak
#

I checked my my ammo for cindy, and she now has 69 rounds

#

Since she has 3 ammo slots

stone urchin
#

Cindy campain is very good

#

I dont understand why them rank her low

#

She is basically new drunk scarlet for campaign

#

But with a bunch more dmg

#

And thenburst doesnt have delay

oak cargo
#

it depends on the mobs number

#

she overkills

#

no follow up like scarlet (gun damage)

exotic forum
#

Wdym no delay, Cindy burst is much more delayed than scarlet

fallen quartz
#

^

#

the dmg only deal when most of beams already covering screen, it fast but still slower than Scarlet's slash

wheat vault
#

idk how cp penalty works in detail

#

but I assume she gets hit double whammy with both hp and atk nerfed

#

from penalty

#

most dps units only get hit by the atk deficit

fallen quartz
#

Yes, the 4th line!!

#

My Cinders have no atk line lmaocry

oak cargo
#

u definitely want the atk line thinkies

#

for MC

oak cargo
#

this is the use case i think to nuke with Cindy in campaign stage, I'm trying to deliver all her burst with the boss only (happen that this stage the boss appear first). I didnt switch to cindy to see the nuke damage thought, but the raptures coming after dont take any damage

#

123 => 75 ish bar on boss

#

and finish off with normal attack

elder pier
stoic storm
#

There is a slight difference

#

Most DPS who are good in campaign have a self ATK buff.

This counteracts the CP debuff. E.g. Red Hood gives herself 44% ATK when using B3, and team 48% when B1. These buffs are good because they scale on her base ATK (pre-deficit debuff)

Now Cinderella S1 is a self ATK buff, however crucially unlike Red Hood or similar units, she buffs herself based on her final Max HP. Which means the deficit affects her self buff as well

#

Especially if not running Rouge (which for hard mode is likely), you'll find her S1 is more trash than usual. So there definitely is a compounding effect of the CP deficit simply due to Cinderella having a self-buff based on one of her final stats.

toxic wren
#

There is no difference, it still remains as a 130%~ atk buff on her reduced atk

stoic storm
#

The difference is how it plays with E.g. Liter

#

Or RH

#

Or other ATK buffs

#

Let's use meta favourite Alice as an example

#

Her burst she gives herself 55.12% ATK buff

#

Let's say 50% stat penalty

#

Alice has 100+55.12-50=105% ATK

#

In comparison because Cinderella's buff is based off final buffs, calling it a 30% buff for simplicity, it becomes

(100 - 50)*1.3 = 65

#

Alice, RH, and other buffs aren't affected by the CP deficit, so are more effective at cancelling it out

#

In effect, low CP makes them even better than they normally are, e.g. Alice buff goes from 55% increase to a ~100% increase (raising her ATK from 50% of base to 105%)

#

While Cinderella buff is just as hindered by deficit

fallen quartz
#

So not only she is ranked SS, she gets slapped by deficit math

#

It's easy to understand, take Alice, Asuka, etc as deficit affect their HP and ATK, but their dps only scale with ATK.
While Cinder's dps scale with final max HP, meaning not only her ATK get slap, her HP get slap, that double slaps back to back.

stoic storm
#

Just to be clear - dual scaling (HP & ATK) can be fine for deficits.

The issue is that while self-ATK buffs are always base ATK (Alice, Asuka, etc), Cinderella's buff scales on final HP.

Final is a bad word in skill descriptions for CP deficits. Because final is ~50% lower than base.

exotic forum
#

Are caster atk buffs from teammates nerfed then

stoic storm
#

Yes

exotic forum
#

Or is that still off their base atk

stoic storm
#

Oh sorry

#

Casters ATK is always base

#

So it's fine

#

It's only if the buff has final that it's nerfed by CP deficit

exotic forum
#

Isn't atk DMG and other multiplicative buffs also similarly nerfed, they don't combat cp diff, but scale with the nerfed dmg

#

Both those and Cindy should keep their relative value no? While atk% has inflated value due to being unaffected by deficit

#

If at no deficit the converted atk is same as base atk, at deficit it's still the same, doubling your current atk

#

If it weren't for it being additive with atk% buffs, it would be the same as a 100% atk DMG buff

#

This feels like atk% is uniquely advantageous in deficit, rather than Cindy s1 being uniquely disadvantageous

stoic storm
#

This is correct - however ATK% being uniquely advantageous is exactly why all the meta DPS for campaign have ATK self buffs (RH, Alice, Asuka, Etc)

#

My point is not to confuse Cinderella's S1, which is a self buff to her ATK stat, as equivalent to the meta campaign pusher's self ATK buffs

#

If it scaled on base HP it would make her more meta for campaign, but she'd no longer work on with Rouge. Always a trade off.

fallen quartz
#

Final calculation, meaning include everything

#

while base only include stats in NIKKE's profile

acoustic field
#

Just ATK buffers and units have higher values and are more prevalent

#

However, CP deficit narrows the gap of HIGHEST DAMAGE - LOWEST DAMAGE.

#

So Cindy technically has 110-130% ATK buff by herself, with her ATK stat, however that means she is only 100% base attacker's ATK + 33~52% extra attacker's ATK with POOR scaling on ATK buff and her ATK is gone outside Full Burst.

#

What matters is the % not the value

#

Just remember that when pushing high deficit

fallen quartz
#

I don't want to remember advance math when pushing high deficit, it's already hard enough, and math make is harder DrakeScream

#

anyway, use Cinders, can't clear stages, swap out, done.

acoustic field
#

A unit with 400% ATK buff is significantly stronger than a unit with 100% ATK with stat penalty.

#

A unit with 400% ATK buff is stronger than a unit with 100% ATK without penalty.

fallen quartz
acoustic field
#

Cindy has base ATK of 33~52% in Attacker's ATK.

#

Which is kinda bad.

#

Can be fixed with SAnis.

#

But not Rouge (she needs stack).

#

Can be fixed with Crown.

#

Not ideal to be fixed with Liter (poor scaling but manageable and actually better in most cases).

fallen quartz
#

great...

molten oak
#

Rh b1

acoustic field
#

RH B1 fixes everyone.

molten oak
#

Yeah best B1 in game

fallen quartz
#

until you have to wait off-burst

#

yikes

acoustic field
#

RH B1 fixes Cindy a lot.

stoic storm
#

Just do the trusty 2-clear hard mode strat

acoustic field
#

I think you can snipe the boss with that.

stoic storm
#

then RH has no delay

acoustic field
#

Just kill the mobs first.

stoic storm
#

what about a B2 AoE like Mari first to clear mobs? kekw

acoustic field
#

She is 2Ɨ Electric SW anyways.

#

Single target only.

acoustic field
#

Best high deficit comp rn is.

stoic storm
#

yeah won't kill in hard mode

acoustic field
#

Crown Cindy SAnis/Ein/Scarlet RH Liter/DWife/Rouge.
Crown Cindy Ein/Scarlet RH/Liter SAnis.

stoic storm
#

Liter?

acoustic field
#

For Electric weak.

stoic storm
#

I thought the tryhard comps all used RH as only B1

acoustic field
#

There are 2 Campaign comps:

#
  • RH Solo B1 (With Off-Burst Support, i.e. SAnis/Naga/Maxwell/XLud)
  • RH + Other B1 (Liter, DWife, Rapu, Rouge, OG Sakura, etc)
  • Non-RH B1 (Niche)
acoustic field
acoustic field
#

Just don't use Naga when using that comp for mobbing.

#

No one is hitting core.

#

Well, maybe if you need heal.

#

Or want to CP pad.

#

But in that case, bringing Ein/Scarlet is better.

elder pier
#

Atk% buff multiplies the atk stat b4 it is subtracted by the enemy def stat.

stoic storm
#

And Cindy falls in the latter, with her "increase ATK based on final HP"

Hol up a sec I had an argument with gatrix about this exact topic at like 4 am a few months ago

stoic storm
#

I could be wrong, I'm trying to confirm and all I'm finding are useless deficit & debuff tables and graphs

elder pier
# stoic storm I could be wrong, I'm trying to confirm and all I'm finding are useless deficit ...
stoic storm
#

I see, CP is before all else after all

#

The strong scaling is because it gets you away from their DEF values which actually matter at high deficit

#

That's why you see +50% ATK boost damage by so much more than 50%

#

Could probably be truly confirmed via true damage Ein, but the Korean blog seems to have done pretty extensive testing already

#

Also means Cindy isn't "double nerfed", she's same as any other DPS, and her S1 boosting her ATK helps get her away from the enemy's defense baseline.

stoic storm
#

Thanks for clearing that up, so in that case the thing to keep in mind for Cindy is that she has Defender base stats, so wants "Caster's ATK" buffs instead of "ATK buffs".

Level 400 Baseline:
Cindy ATK: 60,212 (+ ~67,309 from S1 to make her baseline, no ally buff stats, actually competitive)
Attacker ATK: 90,318

RH Burst 1: 90,318 x 0.7755 = 70041
Liter Burst 1: 60,212 * 0.66 = 39739

So despite only being 66% vs 78%, the RH buff is 1.76x as good, almost double Liter's. Very notable difference.

#

RH's B1 is 1.18x as good for an Attacker B3 for comparison (in terms of DMG bonus, I'm intentionally avoiding the rabbit holes of duration & cooldowns)

does cindy matches sbs (w/ alice) dps on neutral ?

XD

#

aight. finally first piece that has 3 acceptable lines. after this i just have to reroll the substats till they are all black lines right

rugged lake

Does Cindy really need ammo now?

wind cloak
#

Is this a better reroll?

rugged lake
#

The bug is gone now...

cedar hull
#

if there is no bug then she doesnt need anymore more ammo?

tired elm
#

nah cindy needs to be corrected

noble cipher
# wind cloak Is this a better reroll?

In the long run, neither are anything to write home about, but considering how none of the lines are worth locking, I'd probably hold onto the first one just to keep the Max Ammo. Cinderella definitely wants ATK OL lines in the long-run, but an extra 12 ammo per magazine will pay off more than 11% bonus ATK as a placeholder when Cinderella gets SO much extra free ATK from her 1st skill (and her base ATK is low anyway)

#

If that ATK line was in the 2nd or 3rd line, it might be a different story.

copper ice
wind cloak
#

She's good with 1 or 2 ammo slots

wind cloak
noble cipher
#

The only line worth anything is the 1st one

#

Like, either way, I'd probably reroll both of them in the long run

#

But I'd still value 12 extra ammo more highly than 11% ATK and 6% Charge Damage

wind cloak
#

Even though in pins, she would simply need 1-2 ammo slots and focus more on ele and atk slots

#

And charge dmg being an exception

noble cipher
#

Personally, I'd keep fishing for an Elemental Damage line. I agree that once you have 2 Max Ammo lines, additional Max Ammo is less of a priority. It's still helpful, but not as essential.

#

but Elemental Damage is one of the stats that you can basically only get from Cubes and OL lines atm

#

and I don't think it'd be worth locking ATK on the first line until you have something worthwhile in the 2nd or 3rd

Is Tia, Rouge, Cindy, SAnis, Naga a good team?

Less than other dps

modest nest

marginal gain or gross gain?

wheat vault

yes if you get ammo/charge speed

for better cdr proccing

while vanilla rouge is good enough, sometimes you can get cucked by things like boss hiding/jumping and mass qte wall

how good is Vigor cube on her?

deft obsidian
#

Vigor I think is actually best cube for DPS ceiling, but it relies on it being same level as your Bastion or higher

#

Cuz HP provided < stats + element

#

Against neutral enemies, might be best thonk

deft obsidian
#

Curious to test if decoys take Chatterbox hits without applying the debuff. If not, then Chatterbox may be the only ST damage dealer that can kill her KEKL

fallen quartz
#

Another advantage of Vigor is free NIKKE from all focus in using two best cubes, also, any Max HP NIKKE can use Vigor.

Is 10/10/10 and SR 15 doll for rouge a good idea for using her with Cindy?

#

I assume rouge and Cindy will be tied at the hip

deft obsidian

SR15 doll probably overkill unless you're buying the extra doll mat bundles and/or extremely lucky with super successes

#

We have Xmas units, a NY Pilgrim, and three more treasure units in the next two months

rugged lake

True

#

So I can't even burn skill books on her then

#

I have 0 treasures done lol

#

I just don't really care for them

deft obsidian
#

10/10/10 much easier if dolphin/whale since buying skill bundles & login variety box covers those combined with overclock

#

Devs actually haven't given us much in the way of paid doll mats comparitively

rugged lake
#

I'm f2p+skins only lol

deft obsidian
#

Makes sense. Older F2P shouldn't struggle too much with skill mats if active and smart about investment

#

I mainly spend so I can waste mats on weird units delutehe

willow sierra

I still need mats for fantum and gang

Treasures are nice, but some are kinda niche. I'm ok with top 10% on raids anyway

rugged lake

My skill book stash got obliterated by Cindy and grave (both 10/10/10). But my doll mats are ready

deft obsidian
#

Doll base are considered within Nikke base stat calculations, right?

rugged lake
#

Yes

#

Which is why rouge should get better buffs for Cindy

deft obsidian
#

So S Anis would actually be a big one to SR15

#

since that would improve her S1 buffs to Cindy

rugged lake

She should

I guess I should upgrade her doll then. It's only SR5

Finally reached Stage 6 Anomaly Interception - Mirror Container with Cinderella.

noble cipher
#

Rouge's 2nd skill buffs units on the left and right sides of her position

soft river
#

I did less damage when I did that

noble cipher
#

Hmm. Is Rogue's 2nd skill triggering Crown's heal condition or something?

#

Interesting

soft river
#

Rouge gives small healing on burst skill to characters with shield coin. It helps maintain crown's S2 which is a bigger dps increase than giving SAnis a small atk damage boost from sword coin.

#

I'm running Ein as the others aren't strong enough to break the glass slippers in the later phase. I'll probably readd Naga once I reach a higher level.

Yeah, the was a misconception for a long time that other Pilgrims had higher rates during Pilgrims, but they don't

#

And rate-up is halved delucry

#

Spend gems/vouchers on limited and supermeta normal units, then mileage Pilgrims. The best approach

#

Especially since it works out timeline-wise:

  • Build mileage for NY during Chrisgmas
  • Build mileage for X.5 anni during spring collab
  • Build mileage for anni during swimsuits and fall collab

gloomy quartz
#

I just wanna know why they made a unit who can’t hit RougeStare

#

like literally goes against the basic principles of the shooting mechanics

deft obsidian

Scaling on stats means that if Naga just has +0 T9Ms, she's not giving much

#

S Anis may need to be on another team depending on what units someone has

#

I have union mates who are either Scartletless and/or Einless also without Exia

#

Maxwell is definitely the weakest damage ceiling of all options, but, for investment, she's the cheapest; just need a single skill to 10
