General Overload Stat Priority & Description
20
- ATK and Elemental Damage are universally recommended for all units and especially important for DPS
- Max Ammo Capacity is suggested for almost all except units that have "last bullet" effect skills. Possible to opt out of this stat if the unit has fast reload time (<= 1sec).
- Hit Rate makes your shots more likely to hit the core. As of right now however, not very important stat aside from SG. It's designed to be good for SMG DPS but there is no good SMG DPS as of now.
- Most support units would have priority of Max Ammo and Charge Speed (if RL/SR). The rest of stats are optional (e.g. ATK, DEF).
- PVP Units having DEF is not a bad option but not necessary. Charge Speed is good for faster burst energy gain.
21
22
Elemental Damage
23
Elemental Damage is a consideration in the late-most game when we start building teams that are element-specific. Their contribution when a DPS is on element though is very huge due to its separate multiplier that could actually skew having proper element over having proper team composition. High Priority especially on any unit that can do good damage.
24
25
Charge Damage
26
The way Charge Damage stat works, it increases the maximum charge amount of a charge shot is additively. So a 20% Charge Damage will increase Snow White's 1000% maximum charge into 1020%. It will increase Maxwell's regular shot from 250% to 270% and her burst shot from 300% to 320%. In general, Charge Damage is a low priority stat even for Sniper Rifles or Rocket Launchers (there are exceptions for some units). Also, this does not increase the charge time of going from 0%->Max Charge %

Bastion vs Resilience Cube
29
For the following data regarding Bastion vs Resilience Cube, I'd like to thank Kontossis#6914 for providing his findings on these topics. He has some insights that may affect some decisions of how people approach these scenarios.

There has been a lot of discussion about these two cubes. In general, these two cubes are the best cubes for majority of Nikkes.
Some would say that Bastion is better than Resilience (higher DPS over time).

In a vaccuum calculation, Bastion has higher DPS by about 1-3% than Resilience; but if you have Reload speed buffer (e.g. Admi/Privaty), then Resilience will come out roughly 5% higher than Bastion. However, even on actual testing, both are having varying results. Regardless, both are still coming roughly similar to one another.

30
In my personal experience and preference however, I prefer Resilience over Bastion. Resilience gives the flexibility of while fighting bosses and doing mechanics (e.g. covering, boss jumping outside of shooting range so taking advantage of window of opportunity to reload and not accidentally cancelling reload windows and the DPS difference is marginal. Not only that, the more overload max ammo capacity there is, the more efficient Resilience is getting over Bastion (reasoning see below: Reload Speed vs Magazine Size).

Generally:
For AR, SG, SMG: Bastion or Resilience are both fine.
For SR, RL: Resilience is my typical recommendation. Usually they have full charge effect or keeping up stacks is a necessity which makes consistent shooting uptime more important.
For MG: Bastion due to windup time for initial fire rate.
Non-DPS Units: Quantum Cube (see more note below)
31
32
Quantum Cube
33
Quantum Cube should be generally used only if you have a burst cooldown reduction in your team. It is good cube for any support (non-dps) unit especially if they don't have "last bullet" effect or "land [X amount] normal attacks". And even if they do, if their damage isn't good or reaching that breakpoint (e.g. stacks) is negligible over the entire duration of fight, then Quantum Cube would generally be better. This allows you to have faster energy generation and may allow you to squeeze in one extra burst or full duration by the end of the fight.
e.g.
Once Novel reaches Max Stacks, then skill 2's stacking mechanic of hit 100 normal attacks becomes negligible for the rest of the fight.
Blanc's skill 1 effect is almost not that necessary for majority of situation, so she doesn't need to constantly trigger skill 1 and thus Quantum is better instead of Bastion or Resilience (which will help the uptime of skill 1)
34
35
Stat Breakpoints
36
For MG: There is a spool up time for MG before it reaches maximum rate of fire but if you reload fast enough (i.e. 70%+ reload speed), you can avoid having the spool up time after reloading. Not a recommended strategy as it will require reload buffer + resilience cube and it will only be worth if it times your reloading during the reload buff duration, but it's an option to consider.

For Alice: reaching 99% Charge Speed is sufficient enough that it is the same as 100% Charge Speed (tested frame by frame)

With 110% Reload Speed: units will be essentially in a state of "unlimited ammo" (virtually 0 reload time).

Max Ammo Overload Breakpoints: It's good to understand primarily for SR/RL that there are breakpoints of when you gain more bullets. Each Overload Tier is calculated to base ammo and added separately. For Example, if you have 56.6% and 73.04% Max Ammo Capacity Overload on Sniper Rifle, you end up with 129.64% Max Ammo which should calculate into 7.7784 bullets which should round into 8 bullets. However, you'll only get +7 bullets from those OLs because 56.6% gives 3 bullets (rounded down from 3.39 bullets) and 73.04% gives 4 bullets (rounded down from 4.38 bullets). On the counter side, if you have 60.71% and 73.04% Max Ammo Capacity OLs, you end up with +8 bullets because 60.71% gives 4 bullets (rounded up from 3.64) and 73.04% also gives 4 bullets.
You can look at this chart for the breakpoints for RL/SR: https://i.imgur.com/V57HDuh.png
37
38
You said this for cubes but others said that. What to do?
39
My suggestion will always be the same to people who have picked one or the other. I'd first get both Bastion and Resilience Cube to level 3. Then focus finishing Resilience to level 7. And then finish Bastion to Level 7. Afterwards, you have a few options: save the rest of your currency for possibly a better cube coming out later down the line or increase stars of your favorite Liberation Unit or use it to make the other cubes level 7 also.
40
41
"_____ is not here"
42
Either not worth overloading and/or keep 4/4/4 skills at best. Read the above recommended generic OL lines and Cubes based on class / type of units. Just ask on stream or discord if you want to know more about the character or want a character added (maybe meta changes and forgot about it).

Priority Definitions:
45
 Zero [ok to reset] - i should've deleted them from the guide

Zero to Low [ok to reset] - Someday... trust in copium.

Low [ok to reset] - will have rare use to general players, some players might settle for them temporarily if no top units, some top players might have some use but usually unique situation for a random boss mechanic or team build for their own account

Low to Med - has some niche but viable teams

Med - used generally but not as high priority as [High]

High - meta units

Highest - wtf are you doing not investing on these units

Resilience with Crown		Hit Rate allows you to have better uptime on her ATK buff at the start of the fight. If you rolled Max Ammo first on your first OL on her, it's fine to keep it that way and don't need to pursue having Hit Rate.
Max Ammo Capacity improves Modernia's damage greatly and scales well with Bastion Cube. Having 2 is enough if you burst with her but ideally more is better specially since she is better when she doesn't burst.
Switching to Bastion Level 3 (refund 2 bullets per 10 hit) is equivalent multiplier to 1.25x your bullets so at 1 OL where you have Hit Rate line but no Max Ammo, switching to using Bastion Cube is equivalent to having a 25% max ammo capacity (300+76 bullets).
Bastion Level 7 (refund 3 bullets) is roughly 1.43x multiplier.
Depending on your rolls, you might end up needing Hit Rate line by second or third OL gear.
As a side note, at around 140% Max Ammo with Bastion Level 3 (or 105% Max Ammo with Bastion Level 7) which is essentially 900~1000 effective bullets, you can loop Modernia's burst without reloading when using a Cooldown Reduction Unit (e.g. Liter).
Crit Rate balances well with Modernia having huge Crit Damage buff on herself

0-4x Hit Rate		Resilience or Bastion,
Resilience synergizes better with Summer Anis / Privaty and also makes you get caught off guard less during boss mechanics (QTE's).
Skill 2 can be higher if you're big on PVP.
Max Ammo Capacity improves her damage the greatest. Having 2 lines of Ammo is OK if you run her with Summer Anis. More lines is good if you don't run with Summer Anis.
Scarlet has high ATK multiplier from her skill, so it's not as necessary (it's still the third best in slot). Thus Elemental Damage is higher priority than ATK for her if you have to choose between the two. But both are still good for her.
Crit Damage balances well with Scarlet having Crit Rate buff on herself
Crit Rate is still a good line since Scarlet is not always in a low HP status so she may not have the self Crit Rate buff anyways
Scarlet relies a lot on auto attack and thus having higher Hit Rate to be more likely to do core shots increases her damage.

Resilience/Bastion to help with Energy Generation and shooting and skill uptime.
Adjutant if you plan to use her with Liter and have no Charge Speed on her overloads.		ATK and Elemental Damage are the main targets. Aim at least one or both on each OL gear piece. The rest are secondary.
Crit Rate is a huge Quality of Life stat for Snow White; while you can just keep retrying for crit bursts to happen, it overall saves you time and more consistency on your runs.
Charge Speed is primarily important when use Snow White with Liter, otherwise not necessary. You need about 2 Charge Speed lines + Maxwell with extremely fast activation between Liter and Snow White Burst to reach 1000%. About 3-4 if you want it to be comfy.
Each 1% Charge Speed adds about 10% charge on SW Burst speed.
Charge Damage sucks for her but I wouldn't sweat it as a 3rd line (it's additive to the 1000% charge bar of her burst).
Max Ammo helps with Energy Generation and boss mechanics quality of life but overall not the biggest necessity.

Charge Speed allows Alice to have 99~100% Charge Speed when she bursts. With 98.88% Charge Speed, she can full charge within frame 1 and thus releasing full charge quickly. If you pair her with Maxwell, she only needs 1 line of it. Requires 2 lines if you don't use Maxwell with her. Lately we've been using her without Maxwell more so it's recommended to go 2 lines of Charge Speed (total of 7.06% or higher Charge Speed within 2 lines).
Fast Shooting is her typical gameplay which means she uses up ammo fast so Max Ammo and Resilience Cube are necessary.
You can have entire ammo capacity shooting without reloading with Bastion during burst if you have have enough Ammo capacity with Liter+Noir

Max Ammo for Energy Generation Uptime. A necessity especially when she's the only unit that can be fast charged in your team.
Charge Damage is fairly decent stat for Maxwell compared to other units mainly because she has high ATK multiplier during her burst which complements her having higher Charge Damage.
Fast Shooting is her typical gameplay which means she uses up ammo fast so Max Ammo and Resilience Cube are necessary.
Her Burst has high ATK scaling so investing on Crit Rate, Crit Damage, or Charge Damage actually isn't bad

Elemental Damage to flex her on Bosses and put her in a higher priority consideration when team building.
Hit Rate increases likelihood of hitting core damage or just hitting the boss in general which will make her worth choosing in case of Wind Bosses and synergize with Elemental Damage flex.

Hit Rate takes advantage of synergy with her burst and allows you to reach a high enough hit rate to do core shots as a shotgun with synergy on other support units.
Crit Damage synergizes with her skill 2 self crit buff.
Crit Rate is there for the off chance of skill 1 triggering, but more so due to you likely rolling Crit Damage also on other overload lines.

Quantum is good if your team has low burst energy generation (no SR/RL).		Noir's reload speed is so fast that Resilience is not really that necessary on her.
Skill 2 should be either level 5 or level 9 to get the bonus max ammo round threshold.
Leveling Up Burst is primarily if you plan to use her on SG teams.
Sometimes ATK% might mess with buffs for other DPS units (e.g. Maxwell buffs highest 2 attack, Noir could end up being one of the receivers for this due to her typing as an Attacker). So careful consideration of her ATK% is something to pay attention to.
Crit Stats and Hit Rate are generally helpful for SG.

Crit ends up being a more valuable stat due to this. Her reload time isn't as long so she doesn't require a lot of max ammo if at all.
Her priority/niche nowadays is using her as a tank to soak up some damage for certain bosses where her Skill 1 can be taken advantage of (increasing HP is pseudo heal). Some bosses target highest attack units with certain mechanics and 2B is almost always guaranteed to be highest attack (if lower core, might need to ramp up a bit with a few bursts).

Resilience works with Crown/Privaty (assuming she reloads at least once still even while in Bastion),

Adjutant/Onslaught if there's other sources of Max Ammo (e.g. Liter) that you can still infinite ammo without using Bastion or if you have extra Ammo Line that you don't want to reroll out of. The choice between CS/ChgD will depend if you can get that 'extra hit' bonus during full burst (test DPS)		1x Max Ammo is good to be able to use SBS in variety of teams but if you're just using her with bunnies, then having 0 Max Ammo is fine.
More Charge Speed allows more hits during full burst which allows more skill 1 proc. With Alice, you can get 17 shots (with high probability) and getting 1 Charge Speed line can get it to 18 shots (more consistently). The 18th shot is important because it's guaranteed that you'll proc the 3rd proc of skill 1 at least 6 times per full burst.
Charge Damage and Crit Rate are roughly the same. Crit is not bad because her skill 1 procs don't get core damage bonus and doesn't get diluted with the formula in the multiplier.

NOTE: THESE Charge Speed (from OL+cube+other buffs (not including Alice)) BREAKPOINTS ARE JUST ROUGH ESTIMATES. It assumes you're running her with Alice max s1 but the numbers here are NOT including Alice Buff (for most situations, basically think of these as OL Charge Speed Breakpoints). Actual number may vary on device or other factors (hard to determine), in theory:
8.35% is when 19th shot becomes possible
16.99% is when 19 shots becomes basically guaranteed
17.65% is when 20th shot becomes possible
25.35% is when 20 shots should be guaranteed
25.99% is 21st shot becomes possible
and 32.99% is when you should always get 21 shots

sidenote: The reason why the CS varies and the extra shot isn't always guaranteed is because it depends how much 'precharge' she has before the the start of the burst.

One of the supports that is also a DPS so getting ATK is good.
Not having much DPS scaling options, Elemental Damage is one of the better options for her to increase her overall DPS.

All the lines are optional if we're being very specific about it. ATK for more personal heal. DEF could be argued it's not necessary at high end campaign, Max Ammo or Charge Speed could be argued that she will taunt more often and causing herself to heal. But you could also use the Max Ammo for better energy generation.

For Skill 2, breakpoints for attack speed for SGs are level 4, level 7 or level 10. Don't keep the skills in between.
More Ammo is more likelihood of uptime of buffs. With about 200% Ammo (3 lines of Tier 11 Max Ammo), you roughly reload once per minute. At around 275% ammo, you could do a full 3 minute run without reloading. I would at least aim for 100% ammo.
Upgrade burst as high as wanted. Higher level for more damage.

*Keep skill 1 low level if using without other Piercing Snipers, otherwise it's a high priority (similar to skill 2).
At least 1x Max Ammo so you have enough ammo per full reload to do cooldown reduction. More Ammo helps if you want to fast charge some after shooting 8 full charges. (solo fast charger)
Charge speed is quality of life to reduce charge cancels.

Quantum is useful especially if no fast charge units (SR/RL/SG). Since she can maintain her stacks with or without Bastion/Resilience, Quantum is a good default cube.		Her burst needs high investment before you start seeing huge difference. You can make her get max stacks (within 30 seconds) without reloading with 193%+ Max Ammo and Bastion

Sometimes Dolla is the only SR/RL in the team which is the main source for fast energy charge for burst so Max Ammo OL is good.
Dolla's skills don't scale well so they're fine at lower levels, but they're good nonetheless. I'd recommend to keep at 4/4/1 and 7/4/4 at best.
