Mosin Nagant Mod

Mosin Nagant Mod
Rifle ★★★★★ Weirdly decent specialist

Let's get this out of the way now, I hate the Mosin and think of it as a garbage thing. Most of the people who love the thing are weirdos or idiots who have never tried comparing the Mosin to an actual well-built modern gun, which does almost anything it does but better. Hayha used it because he had nothing else to use, not because he wanted one. And now that I've told all the Zaytsev fanboys to get fucked, the Mod is actually surprisingly useful for some specific circumstances that require exactly some high shot firepower and also the occassional small bamboo removal service. This is rare (mostly weird event and ranking stuff, or some strats for some enemies you're not meant to fight), but she's there for when you need it. Aside from that, her main use is that at Mod 3, with all her special gear and oath bonuses, she is more powerful in terms of damage than NTW-20, and thus is good for cheesing data sim ranking.

Rifle ★★★★ Alright if no-duping, otherwise it probably wont come up

She's hot, and that's about all you can say for the most part. If you have a chronic shortage of HGs, she can buff your rifles. If you have lots of dupes, you won't care.

Mk46

Mk46
Machine Gun ★★★★ no lol

She's annoying as fuck to farm without a 5* arti and HS2000 and has the lowest FP among MGs. The skill has lower FP boost in exchange for more Acc. On an MG with shit FP. Brilliant. Did I mention she's a second volley MG? Yeah. Into the bin you go.

Mk12 Special Purpose Rifle

Mk12 Special Purpose Rifle
Rifle ★★★★ Middle of the Pack. Nothing special.

An RF that was originally slated to be so good that they nerfed her before her release. Unfortunately this current incarnation is nothing special. +30% each to Crit Damage and RoF is a ballpark 65% DPS increase, +/- a bit due to RoF depending on the level yours is, assuming 100% crit rate. This is... not inspiring compared to what some other rifles you already have might put out. You can fit her on whichever style RF team if you want to use her. If you want a top end version of this, use R93, who has a better version of the gimmick.

Minos

Shotgun Special Overly slow with her shield, sadly, but the shield value is high

The beef-loving cowgirl from a very weird show. She has a shield, but it takes way too long to pop up before it's useful in most cases, as it only pops up with her reload cycle. On the other hand, it's a huge shield, but in many cases you're better off with other shield SGs. She's not the worst SG though I guess, so run her if you don't have anything better.

Micro Uzi Mod

Micro Uzi Mod
Submachine Gun ★★★★ THE IDIOT ASCENDED (actually good)

Uh.... we came upon a weird timeline wherein frankly, if she had a +FP special item? She'd beat out Vector in a lot of cases. Now she only beats her in many cases and honestly might have more utility.

She learned to be less dumb with her tiles and actually they go BACKWARDS now. Wow. The buff percentages still aren't super impressive but she's no longer a dead slot for buffs. The damage she causes with that second skill? Surprisingly really high, especially in clusters. If lots of enemies are on fire next to each other, then they all affect each other with the burn, which can be really nasty vs some of the later ultra-dense enemy packs.

Aside from that, she's just a Molotov off-tank with an extra nice skill. She doesn't bring anything super new to the table as much as she's the pretty nice version of a dish you thought you'd never like.

Submachine Gun ★★★ Her mod is good her base is not

An alright firebomber if you don't have Vector, but you won't get a shitton of free copies of her like you do with Skorpion. Slightly but not significantly better than Skorpion at actual firebombing, but has a much much shittier aura. Bullied by a lot of artists for being retarded.

Her mod makes her a lot better, rivaling if not surpassing Vector. Look at that article for more info.

Medusa

Medusa
Assault Rifle Special Debuffer AR which is weird

On one hand, her passive debuffs the enemy quite nicely. On the other hand, her stats kinda suck, and her active is basically a glorified stun, and yes, anything immune to stun is immune to her, too.

Since EN lacks the chip, she actually has good DPS. Once EN gets the chip, her DPS is kinda meh.

Rifle ★★★★★ Niche uses

Welp this is it. The big mamma of all bamboo rifles. I was trying very hard to make a Canadian joke except she beat me to the punch on all of them. She is OFFENSIVELY Canadian (despite being a US product, the rifle is more famous for Canadian use).

As far as Bamboo rifles go, she is THE big stick, delivering sweet, maple syrup flavoured death to all comers. Initial startup similar to small bamboo, but with damage equivalent to multiple big bamboo rifles combined when used properly. Don't let the lower multiplier fool you - what sets her apart is the fact she can crit. This is massive, as it opens up extra layers of multipliers simply not available to any other bamboo rifle. How much damage? With her full posse and a maxed out command fairy, she can spike vs 320k HP bosses, so yeah. Although...in current year, MICA has decided to give bosses a gorillion HP. Put bluntly, Narciss in FP has 3 million HP. So uh...doing over 300k is at least some amount of her HP bar? While a bit of hyperbole, the point remains the same. You're not going to really be sniping bosses for one shot kills anymore. Either they kill you or they have way more HP than you can cut through in one shot.

An (kind of) unfortunate trait is that due to her funny timings, it is not possible to efficiently use her with other bamboo rifles, as she has different aim times from any other one (she's faster than small bamboos).

Yes bamboo is niche, but if you really cbf to "fight" a boss and would rather just skip the fact they exist, here you go.

Rifle ★★★★★ Her Mod Makes her really good

From meme girl with trash performance to actually good. With a fairly quick 4s ICD for not much loss in damage and .5s between shots, she settles into a niche of removal of threatening middle-ish HP units such as Gundams and the like early on, and if you have the unique equipment from Singularity ranking, her initial pre-skill DPS isn't too horrid either. Her mod makes her actually good, amazingly.

Mauser C96 Mod

Mauser C96 Mod
Handgun ★★★★ Good with MGs at night

With the changes to flare skill she's actually usable with MGs at night. Flares work like PEQs now, which actually allows MGs to function at night. With MICA being the way they are, this could prove pretty helpful if they ever decided to release new content.

Handgun ★★★ Core fodder

Some may claim her skill is useful (It pretends to be), except it applies after the penalty (and really, its' multiplication and isn't on the same modifier so its autoshit either way), so 100% - 90% = 10% x 2 = 20%! Congratulations, you've wasted 600 basic data, 1020 intermediate data, and 500 advanced data for less benefit than a 2* PEQ.

Has a mod, but doesn't get much better.

Makarov Pistol

Makarov Pistol
Handgun ★★★ Good

Welrodski! ...By which I mean she's basically Welrod but 3 star, with lower numbers and an aura that wants her in the middle (or front works too). Usable if you lack Welrod and honestly not actually bad, but HG builds are cheap and she's pretty common so she might get annoying to get eventually. Also her -acc skill stacks with Welrod, and can be combined with a +evade skill for silliness.

Her mod has other uses and is quite interesting, see her mod entry here

Makarov Mod

Makarov Mod
Handgun ★★★★ She lost her hat, but is a good helper for SGs now. Probably best of her batch.

Her new skill lets her make shotguns actually able to evade. Hell, she can give evasion to taunt dummies. Do I really have to say how potentially useful this is for setups where you need your frontline to last longer?

This won't help for general content much, but it's a niche that starts coming up a lot for harder event stages because Mica hates you.
