Howa Type-64 Battle Rifle

Howa Type-64 Battle Rifle
Assault Rifle ★★★★★ Weird niche uses

Aka 64 Shiki if you're a weeb.

She's a bit of a complicated unit in that certain enemy thresholds alter what her skill does, thus making her work better vs bosses (with her colossal 90% FP boost for a few seconds) than for regular encounters. However, the timings are awkwardly short for the big boost, and the 2nd half reduces her firepower a bunch but also buffs the hell out of the stuff in front (which, if it's SR3, means more damage for her.) Note that the skill is less awkward than it seems, as it counts doll groups, rather than individuals, so 5x 5-linked enemies is totally fine, and so on.

Unfortunately, they removed cool tile buff tricks so her potential of giving insane buffs is a lot more limited than before

Bofors Automatkarbin 5

Bofors Automatkarbin 5
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Usable

AKA Ak 5

An upgraded version of the FN FNC, both IRL and ingame. Like FNC, her 5/8 skill uptime makes her burstier than the 10/16 of G36, with better stats, which evens out to DPS comparable to G36. Not your first choice for ARs, but solid… if you can be arsed to farm her.

S&T Daewoo K11

S&T Daewoo K11
Assault Rifle ★★★★★ Good

Totally not Architect in disguise. We think. Probably. A grenadier that's actually pretty ok at general use simple because she fires the grenades within a time frame where everything isn't fucking dead yet, and she fires a huge volley (1 per link) that finishes off targets if the first grenade doesn't kill them. On the flipside, firing 1 grenade per link ALSO means she doesn't reach full power until 5x linked, and also means every dummy lost is a loss in grenade power, unlike literally every other grenadier.

Her main problem is literally random targeting, so the grenades may or may not land in the ideal pattern, but they're at least hitting things and you get lots of grenades, so at worst the spread is not ideal rather than wasted

Daewoo Precision Industries K2

Daewoo Precision Industries K2
Assault Rifle ★★★★★ Good

Standard issue rifle of the ROKAF and only non-main-Heroine doll to get her own fully animated PV. Also a tribute to Anmi's ability to make some of the game's lewdest art and have people not notice because of how innocent the faces are. Almost every adult Korean male is very intimately familiar with her, whether they wanted to be or not.

Imagine base G11 started up her skill right at the start of the fight. Imagine she was completely useless against armour (more so than she already is). That's K2 in a nutshell. High DPS for the first 6 seconds vs trash, but cannot fight armor to save her life and is absolutely awful against bosses. However, her ability to kill unarmored trash is quite good, which has plenty of uses since bosses are not actually the most common enemy type.

What her skill does is reduce her damage but fire off 3 round bursts, and builds up a heat counter which, when capped out, uh... fucks up her stats. The other part of her skill (stronger single shot damage but slows her down and makes every shot cool down instead of heat up) generally doesn't come up. Some actually recommend not giving her too many RoF buffs or she'll overheat.

Also, she's an awful Korean, being unable to tolerate spicy food (but she tries anyway)

FN Herstal FNC

FN Herstal FNC
Assault Rifle ★★★ Powercrept but you get her for free

Choco tabemase? You get her for free and she performs OK. Has a long history of suffering in the game and may suffer from PTSD. Damage bonuses are nice, and she's just strong enough to take down a Jupiter cannon by herself, provided you have some cannon fodder between her and the Jupiter (which is mostly why she has PTSD).

She used to perform really well, and she does perform OK for cost to raise, but a 5-star and 3-star AR cost the same to actually use, and the newer ARs are much, much shinier. She's still OK but don't get too attached, you'll have better soon enough. Maybe she'll get a mod someday.

TsKIB OTs-12 Tiss

TsKIB OTs-12 Tiss
Assault Rifle ★★★ If desperate

"Are you THAT short on ARs or need cheap equipment that badly?"

You get much better ARs from story events, and there's only so much that you actually need. If you need a cheap AR and already have FNC though I guess she can be useful.

Her exclusive, while it does give her more strength, doesn't let her outperform many 4* ARs.

Spikes Tactical AR-15

Spikes Tactical AR-15
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Not as good as before, but still free and still 1 of the better things you get

AKA ST AR-15, aka Star-chan. High stats, two accessory slots, and Unique Ammo (that you need to farm for) that outperforms regular HV ammo and doesn't require forever to build up. While not considered as OP as she once was, she remains a good unit to raise; if you partially raise her, she basically hits close to RoF cap on her own.

Her mod (and her equipment set) brings her back up to a decent spot as an AR. You can see her mod here

United States Carbine, Caliber 5.56 mm, M4A1

United States Carbine, Caliber 5.56 mm, M4A1
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Recommended

The cinnamon roll heroine. One of three ARs that buffs other ARs. A decent DPS who buffs other DPS. Later upgrades into a fucking metal gear. Which you should 150% get. So regardless of how good she is now, raise her anyways.

You can find her mod here

United States Carbine, Caliber 5.56 mm, M4, SOPMOD II

United States Carbine, Caliber 5.56 mm, M4, SOPMOD II
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Usable

If it's not clear by now, AR team is pretty good. has the weakest grenade of the 3 major grenadier ARs (FAL/416/Herself), except she's the best actual AR and will outDPS FAL and 416 in direct fire due to good stats and having the same accessory/stat layout as AR15. Less desirable now that G11 and such are out, but still definitely not terrible as far as grenadiers go. Will not perform to the level of a proper direct fire AR though.

Problem is, grenadiers aren't terribly useful currently outside of some gigabrain ranking echelons. I say that because I'm covering my bases here. Never count grenades out.

You can find her mod here

United States Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16A1

United States Rifle, Caliber 5.56 mm, M16A1
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Niche use with special equip

With her special gear, she turns into a hilarious tank with 20 armor and 90 evade (more evade when oathed) which, while not ideal for most things, has its uses. Her stun grenade can also be handy. Not really used anymore, but hey if you find yourself back in 2017 farming, she's great.

Not, however, a DPS, unlike virtually all other ARs.

AS Val

AS Val
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Can be, gets better

Currently the Night Commoner, with her performance being the lowest among the three heavily used night battle ARs. However, through the mod system, becomes the Night Goddess/General Secretary. Yes, even better than Groza. Power to the people! Overthrow the monarchy! Or something.

Without it, she'll somewhat outperform daylight ARs at night, although not as well as the rest of the Night Royalty. Even then, the stronger ARs will still outdps her.

Her mod entry can be found here.

Assault Rifle ★★★★ Usable if desperate

She's one of the dolls of all time. Yup.

Heckler & Koch G36

Heckler & Koch G36
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Usable

Her 4 star rarity is a lie. She's rarer than most of the 5 stars and is surprisingly good for her rarity. MAID POWER. While she performs alright as a 4 star, her mod makes her potentially quite good if you don't mind the expense.

Does not overheat, unlike the real one. Also Imoko art.

Technically has a combo thingy with Springfield, but it falls under "I guess it exists?" Yeah, I dunno what they were thinking.

KBP 9A-91

KBP 9A-91
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Usable early

The Night Princess. If you need a Night Battle AR, and don't want to pay for a mod, she's the 2nd best girl behind Groza. Unlike Groza, you can actually build her. Her unique equip makes her even sillier, but she's excellent even without it… at night. At day, she only barely keeps up with FNC or F2000.

Type 56-1

Type 56-1
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Core fodder (Until you mod her)

Grenadiers in this game suffer from being garbage unless they bring something special to the table. 416 has damage, SOPMOD has being a good AR, Zas has raw speed and area, and FAL has a triple blast. This pile of junk is a bad AK copy with a too-slow to do anything grenade. Her mod gives her actual consideration, but baseline is still cores.
