Wishlist setup
Below you can find our wishlist guide for Ordinary Recruit. Each manufacturer will feature two sections:
PvE, which details what you should get for things outside Arena, is divided into:
Must Have: These units bring value everywhere. You should get and build them whenever you have the resources, prioritizing the ones at the top.
Raid Meta: Late-game-focused units that are only worth building for Raid, as it requires 3-5 functional teams. They can be used as replacements outside Raid only if you don't have the Must Have(s).
Luxury: Not owning these units is fine because they are already at the edge of meta or powercrept, but they can be replacements.
PvP, which details units essential for Arena, is divided into:
Must Have: Without them, Arena feels weak. The more you lack, the worse that feeling is. When you first start trying to improve your Arena, start with them.
Luxury: Specialized PvP units that we don't recommend building for most players because they are more niche or have a smaller range of use. That said, they can be very powerful and vital to certain specialized comps. Only invest if you are a competitive PvP-er.
Units are listed in order of priority, with the top being the most important and the bottom being the least.

†Treasure units specifically require 2 dupes to function. Read here.

PvE
[1] Prioritize Nayuta over Liberalio at #5 if you do not have Crown so that you can get a good Burst 2 unit faster.
[2] Prioritize Siren over Liberalio if you do not have Anis: Star so that you can get one of the best B1-CDR units faster.

[1] Scarlet falls off in priority once your competitors have an invested Label.

About Wishlist
Wishlist is a feature in Goddess of Victory: NIKKE that unlocks after you do your first 40 pulls on the regular banner. After that, you are able to pick 5 characters from each of the 3 main factions (called Manufacturers).
When you fully fill the wishlist, every character you will pull from now will either belong to one of the 15 characters OR to the Pilgrim faction (they can't be added to the wishlist as they are a bit rarer - think about them like Light/Dark faction from most idle games).
Important! You have to fill all 15 slots or else the wishlist won't work. You can't abuse it by just selecting one character per faction.
To summarize, thanks to this feature, you are able to target the characters that you plan to use in the long term or build teams around. So it's very important to setup your Wishlist right when you unlock the feature - and this guide will help you do it!
Considering that there exist a Tower mode where on top of a free-for-all tower, exist faction towers, where you can only use characters from that faction, we made sure to fill the list with at least one character from each Burst time, so you can build a full team.
