No seriously, where in the fuck is G&K getting these? Most people are familiar with this only because it's gotten brought up by Forgotten Weapons and C&Rsenal. Anyway, she's a funny damage SMG in that instead of contributing to damage herself, she makes others hurt shit more. Potentially OK for boss fights (where she can give you a 34% damage increase after a few seconds), but there's very few practical enemy types you'll be shooting for long enough that it'll really be noticeable outside of that.

G43 is similar to M14 in night battles, but with a RoF skill instead of damage. Was quite usable as a starter night rifle, and better than nothing, but you should really try to get a better one.

One of the more maligned, design-wise, of the Infukun rangers. As a character, she's OK I guess. As a design, she's not as good as the rest of the stuff Infukun made before he left Mica (G11 is peak Infukun). As a unit... she's actually kinda crazy, with a buff for every occasion that makes her one of the best and most flexible T-dolls in the game. Shields for the front, Damage for the back, Acc and Eva for the middle row in case you need that. If you could only get one doll from Isomer from farming, farm this one. Seriously.

If she offends your senses that much, stick a paper bag on her head.

I really want to say something good but the closest thing to a real merit that I can think of is "voiced by Ayako Kawasumi." She's basically a 3 star inferior version of P7 with an... "interesting" shape buff and less used than the cat nun. You are likely to be flooded with cat nuns in your eventual quest for Stetchkin. Also, sends you to jail.

Generally decent buffs esp. at night, and she can be an evasion glass tank (100 evade!) in a pinch. Not bad if you actually kite your pistols but be wary of her limited HP. Honestly, you want a real tank in front still. With her mod, her usefulness continues due to the fairly good buffs she provides.

Her unique expedition equip is decent (even more evasion), but the real draw for it is when you can use it with her other unique equips for the set bonus.

A high RoF Rifle with good stats. Probably the best one for general use. If you've noticed by now, high RoF rifles are kind of good. Actually caps RoF if paired with Calico, allowing you use other damage boosters instead. With the October 2018 patch, RoF cap is higher, and Calico alone is no longer enough.

At some point, G&K started running out of real guns and broke out more of the early 20th century guns.

Surprisingly, the dolls with them are actually not godawful.

If she's the leader, she gives a general buff, but whatever, most HGs do that. What makes her interesting is that if she's NOT the squad lead, she buffs the hell out of them, thus making her useful in any formation where you want to pack as much as possible into one doll's ability. Lookin' at you, M4, IWS. (And a few others)

MANNERS MAKETH MAN. Very good aura for DPS, and very widely used. As a bonus, she has a very good skill for tanking, and can actually be used as a tank for bamboo spear formations or helping other tanks. She has 40% base crit unlike other handguns (a trait shared with other single-shot pistols like Contender and Thunder .50.) so a suppressor is actually pretty beneficial on her, not that you have other much choice in the matter. But yes, you will be finding use for her. Note that her -acc skill does stack MULTIPLICATIVELY with other acc debuffers.

Her mod keeps her relevant well into higher difficulty content. See info on that here

Yes yes, she can finally help tank. Yes her unique gear gives her armor. But let's get this out of the way early, Welrod IS STILL NOT A TANK AND SHE IS STILL PRETTY SQUISHY. The actual tank is her damned umbrella shield, which works similarly to Agent Vector's shield, only better, and is an immensely powerful tanking tool that can, at max, ignore low end damage (24 or below is basically meaningless) and will take at least 15 shots while it's active.

The doll herself is still squishy as fuck when exposed to enemy fire though.

Also her tiles change completely when modded so take note of that.

I want to say good things about this doll. I really do. It's an iconic shotgun with a hella rep and even got accused of being a warcrime. The rep is exaggerated, but not entirely undeserved.

Her design is... blah. Trench Broom apparently = shitty maid.

But are her stats ok? ...Eh, they're alright. Like the real thing they're serviceable. The tiles are passable (not great, but its 50% acc on a shotgun which helps some MGs) and she has passable HP. Her armour is a little low due to her 3 star nature, at 21.

Not the worst thing ever, but far far from your first choice. Mae would probably not take her into battle.

Aka M1887. She's a shotgun, so she will do shotgun things shotgun-y (read: facetank with her armour), but is not particularly impressive at it. Her stats are okay (but worse than most other 5* shotguns), her tile buffs are the weakest of all 5* shotties (and most 4*!)… and her skill is downright useless, because it has a ridiculously long 15 second cooldown and if you can use it appropriately, well shotguns aren't what you want to use for that fight.

As far as free SGs are concerned, a minor upgrade over 97S if you don't consider 97s's mod.

She can reduce enemy eva at night, which helps for some specific weird shit, but it isn't likely to come up.

She still doesn't compete with SOP or 416, but her ability to debuff enemies AND remove their buffs gives her value. Not a grenadier you'll use often, but she definitely has her uses now that Mica team are throwing bullshit enemies at people during events regularly.

Very good DPS and performance against trash enemies at night. You might think it doesn't come up much, but Mica has a bad habit of throwing night battles at you out of the blue (like the caving thing for a summer event has SUDDENLY COUNTS AS NIGHT if you go deep enough). It's very helpful to own one because her night battle performance IS very good right now. Her performance during the day still sucks though.

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.
