Coalition Unit Index ¦ Angry Trap Midget Guide To Why Your Waifu Sucks

Name	Starting Rarity	Useful?	Notes
Dragoon	★★	Waste of good Biker-Girl Robot Art (Kernels)	She has high HP, Moderate Eva, and no armor. As a tank, you'll find she melts considerably faster than similar G&K units.
SWAP Guard	★★	Basically the normal Guard, but more annoying to finish and has higher stats	Yeah, she's not the worst unit, but she's a 2-star (so good luck finishing her), and she's not exactly exceptional. Most pros and criticisms of the Guard still apply. The most common use for her is stacking her shields to tank AoE shots (like Typhon lasers), but otherwise, ehhh.
SWAP Dragoon	★★	No longer awful, but Rippers are broken and usually better. YMMV.	Unlike the basic Dragoon, this one has an infinite (until shot at) duration shield that replenishes itself at regular intervals. She also has higher stats than the basic version, and the 2nd skill reduces enemy stats. Basically, if your enemies ignore Armor making AEGIS unsuitable for your frontline, these might work out better. SWAP Rippers are broken, but sometimes these will last longer depending on the specific fight you're gearing up for.
SWAP Striker	★★	Mostly a straight upgrade to Strikers	The SWAP Striker has higher offensive stats, better multipliers, and notably higher accuracy than the base version, so it can actually hit things. The main downside to this is it costs 6 instead of 4 to put into your echelon.
SWAP Ripper	★★	Do you want to tank that? Yeah, she will.	The most ridiculous SF tank in the game. She doesn't have Armor, but she has high Evasion, and her second skill works off your echelon setting. In defense mode, every time she loses a link OR her main skill activates, she gets a 9999 power distortion barrier that lasts for a few seconds, meaning that no matter what, she's going to buy you some time. In other modes, it becomes an attack buff that contributes a bit to DPS. And that's her passive. For her active, it triggers her passive and defense mode gives her a considerable 120% Evasion boost, on top of the barrier. In other modes she gets an attack boost that stacks multiplicatively with her passive. If an SF team needs something ridiculous tanked and you absolutely need to buy time, she is currently the last word in.
SWAP Vespid	★★	Uh... I guess it's better than a Vespid?	Almost across the board, it's an improvement for the Vespid. However, its a pain to get a full formation of them because its a 2 star base unit, and as a DPS unit you want it at full stacks. Also, it's not really significantly better than stuff like Jaegers and Strikers. They're not useless, but there are just much better SF units to spend effort and slot points on.
