ZB-26

ZB-26
Machine Gun ★★★★★ Useful Support MG

Quite useful, but not great on her own. Her own DPS isn't especially impressive for an MG, but she can give a decent amount of extra ammo to other MGs, which can be worth it or not depending on who you pair her with, in addition to giving shotguns extra armor.

Machine Gun Special Better than nothing, but if you have better MGs, use those

Suffers from not only being an MG, but an inconsistent one due to her passive. Her stats are alright, but her passive skill is unreliable, not that it matters much since it only activates on reload. The active suffers from the problem of activating slowly enough that you'd expect MGs to have already killed most of what you'd want to stun anyway.

Machine Gun ★★★★ Usable, gets better

The famous Browning Automatic Rifle. BAR-chan, Auntie, etc. The initial reward for starting the game early. Until then, kinda sadly, not as good. However, she will suffice in a pinch compared to other MGs due to her damage buff being unconditional (and better than M60's by default...).

See her mod entry here for info about her mod. At this point, she needs it to be relevant. More info about her in that entry.

Machine Gun ★★★★ Core fodder

At day, she's worse than LWMMG. At night, she worse than LWMMG on her first magazine. On fights that want more than one mag, well, if you're that far into the game you likely have better options. Like Lewis Gun. Which you can get from clearing an event map. So....yeah.

In protracted fights that need exactly two magazines, at night, against armoured enemies, she can shine, if her skill is maxed out… we'll let you know if such a fight will ever happen.

Machine Gun ★★★ Trophy Raifu

Also known as the FN Minimi or M249SAW. Stats are mediocre and her skill frankly sucks. Only comes as a drop from 5-6 or 5-4E, so more of a trophy for completionists who collect rarer t-dolls than an actually good unit.

Machine Gun ★★★ If desperate, mod is interesting

She's basically LWMMG, except a 3 star and slightly more annoying to build up. She's like seriously, not even a performance benefit. Their stats are almost identical and they have the same number of shots so you... might as well just raise LWMMG.

Once you start considering mods, it does become a bit more interesting. Her mod gives her a good advantage towards the current (as of late 2023) meta set of enemies. So she can be worth raising for her mod.

Machine Gun ★★★ Usable early

The Ma-deuce. One of the best early MGs, but its gotten long in the tooth and changes to the game have make it less important. Still usable if you desperately need an early MG.

Machine Gun ★★★★ Literally who

Stop letting the Polish design T-dolls, thanks. She has a night skill as an MG and it isn't even a good one.

Type-80 MG Mod

Machine Gun ★★★★★ Usable, but not a priority

Capped out, her FP stat isnt bad for an MG, and her cooldown time was MASSIVELY cut down (12s instead of 18) making her way better in long fights, she just doesn't have the raw performance of a sheer damage MG compared to someone like Lewis. The passive is potentially useful and she's an alright supporter, but you're not going to be needing her all that much. YMMV.

Machine Gun ★★★★ Core Fodder

The PLA didn't want to have her, and neither should you.

She has a mod now that moves her from largely useless to merely use impaired.

Machine Gun ★★★ Trophy Raifu

Aka 62 Shiki if you're a fucking weeb.

Awful stats, worse skill, and her tiles are nothing impressive either – their shape is good, but a measly 8% armour buff isn't worth bothering with.

Rheinmetall MG3

Rheinmetall MG3
Machine Gun ★★★★ Core fodder

Funny to look at if she has her unique equip, but without her mod, she's worse than LWMMG with or without it.

Machine Gun ★★ Enhancement fodder

Aka FG42; worse than LWMMG, so kinda useless. And worst of all, since MG4 caught buffs (and a mod) she now falls behind MG4 on first mag.

Machine Gun ★★★★★ An actually excellent multipurpose MG

Between her two modes AND a passive that helps keep shotguns alive, I don't think there's much more to say other than "she's great, you will probably find a use for her."

Machine Gun ★★★★★ An MG without the main downside (But has a bunch of new ones)

The mightiest Alpaca to ever wield a machine gun. Don't ask. I don't want to have to explain KR server memes.

With all of the newer MGs she's just okay. Not bad. Just okay. May find a use for her, but eh. Maybe if she ever gets a mod...

Given the skill, one might be tempted to treat her like a normal AR with hilarious early burst damage, but you'd be dumb to do so, because she doesn't get buffs from SMGs and other sources that buff ARs. Also her crit rate is the usual garbage 5% MGs usually get instead of the much better AR rates, and she can't equip PEQs.

That said, she can be a fun mix if you, say, happen to need AR formations to punch through armour (because she can use the absolutely bonkers MG unique ammo types)
