Here's the explanation for all the numbers and colors used in the guide:
- 10/5/7 means upgrading Skill 1 to lvl 10, Skill 2 to lvl 5, and Burst Skill to lvl 7,
- Yellow means the immediate investment when u get the unit. There are 3 reasons for this:
- If the unit is Meta or High Priority, it will have a starting investment of more than 1/1/1 (such as 4/4/4) depending on what the unit provides.
- If the unit is Medium or Low Priority, 1/1/1 will be mentioned, meaning no immediate investment is required, and you can invest in this character if you need to use it according to the priority listed.
- If we deem that a unit does not have usable skills to be meta for any gamemode, no investment will be mentioned.
- Blue means minimum investment to take advantage of the Nikke's skills. There are 2 reasons for this:
- Sometimes, minimum investments are breakpoints such as for Noir or SAnis.
- Sometimes, minimum investments are just the ideal way to progress to upgrade that unit, before moving on to Recommended and High.
- Red means recommended investment for F2P players,
- Purple means maximum recommended investment, in order to get the best out of the unit. You should only try to reach these investments if you have a surplus of Skill Books leftover.
More info:
- The skill investment list below features a lot of Level 4 and 7 because they are easier to understand. Any higher levels will cost a new type of resource.
- However, you may choose to upgrade to Level 5 if you need a stronger effect instead of 4, as the increase in Blue Manual cost from Level 4 to 5 is still low. The leap only starts from Level 6 onward.
- There is also a leap from Level 3 to 4, so if you want to save a tiny bit of Blue Manuals, then leave at 3 instead of 4.
