Her skill is kinda neat, but ultimately, you're not going to get much mileage out of making 2~3* dolls better. Cool tiles though, I guess.

Ok, first things first: TURN OFF HER AUTOSKILL AND SET HER TO MANUAL IMMEDIATELY.

Also, NEVER SET HER ON A FRIEND ECHELON EVER.

UPDATE: This is fixed everywhere now so you can ignore that bit.

That out of the way, she's a pretty decent SMG with your choice of permanent passive buff. She renders most of the long-duration-but-average-buff Evade type SMGs completely pointless, having more HP than most, and basically infinite duration buffs you can choose.

Your choice of permanent 65% Evade buff (default), 85% Firepower Buff (2nd choice) or 200% Acc buff (3rd choice). Using her skill cycles between all 3 of them (if you cant tell, they're color coded. Evade is blue, FP is red, hit is orange. If you're colorblind... sucks to be you I guess.) Noone actually uses the Acc buff though. Also if you leave her autoskill on, it constantly cycles between these 3 and it gets annoying. In a friend echelon, you cant turn it off ever so it forever spams it and annoys people.

Oh, and she can load AP ammo, if you for some reason need an SMG that can do that. This does come up sometimes.

Honestly, she's not bad, but there's just...nicer SMGs now.

Combine an MP40 with an MP28 lower and you get a gun that's more expensive to build than an MP40 without being any better. Thanks Schmeisser, real good use of limited wartime production capacity.

…in-game, she's a 3* smoke grenade main tank and at best a sidegrade to MAC-10 with worse tiles and roughly equal tanking capabilities (less evasion, more HP).

Both are worse than UMP45, and Ingram is cheaper to raise, so there's no point in bothering with MP41.

Lower rarity Vector. Has useful evade. Has shit for HP though and lower atk. Can off-tank alright and her molotov is still good enough to use, but you really want better SMGs. Her primary virtue is that you're given a pile of her at the very start.

She's not sure if she wants to be offensive or defensive, and kinda sucks at both. Her only real purpose for existing is "the story is kinda cute."

Base version isn't great either.

Ablative armor and a grenade. Has a lot of HP for her rarity with a not so terrible evade, though YMMV between her and M38. Her main virtue is that she's the first 3 star you get from the story and they give you a pile of her so it's easy to stock up bodies. Only useful for logistics and cores once you have real tanks. If you happen across free PPS-43s, they're somewhat better.

Has a mod, but it's not great either.

YANDERE DA NYAAAAA

…For once, an Austrian gun that's not hilariously OP. Instead, she's a 3* IDW with lower evasion and tiles that want her in the off-tank position for which she's useless in. Even worse, she's a crazy yandere and thus a trash tier waifu.

Given that evasion tanks are niche to begin with, and RO is free, not worth bothering with.

As far as grenade damage goes, she's pretty awful, falling behind even Papasha Mod for raw damage. However, she supports other grenadiers and she has +30% FP as a formation buff. YMMV.

A weird hybrid tank that... doesn't have a great base evade, but has a fairly powerful self-evade buff with very high uptime.

Her mod adds to that and adds more to her kit. Quite interesting, see her mod entry here

3-star PP-90. An evasion tank with too little evasion to tank and meh tiles, so a core. Her main plus is she has lots of uptime. ...Which doesnt improve her lot any because its still not great, just like PP90.

She's a 3 star Beretta M38, basically. Has high HP for a 3 star SMG, mediocre buff tiles and a flashbang. Unlike Beretta M38, you dont get extra copies for free.

Probably more reliable than the actual gun though, which isnt saying much, because TAURUS PRODUCT.

Honestly, a generic 2 star SMG with meh stats. Her mod3 makes her better. Her base form is... I guess if you need a 2 star flash bang? Her buff tile is meh.

Her mod entry can be found here

She gets debuffs that work even if the flashbang part of her skill doesn't, which makes her slightly more useful than a normal flashbang SMG. On the other hand, she's still a modded doll and thus expensive to build. She isn't useless, but justifying her cost when so many good mods exist that you'd want to get before her means that by the time you get her, she's probably not going to be your number one pick anyway.

So if it hasn't been said enough, absolutely get the Mod1 the very second you can. It's 200 fragments and some cores for a fair boost in performance. Extra stats, a bit more FP buff on her tiles, a little extra HP, and an improvement to the slowdown effect on the smoke.

The real problem is her 2nd skill is janky and not extremely practical. It's a little bit of a bonus, but not likely to make or break a fight. So yeah, the Mod2 isn't great. The mod 3 however, gives her a unique equipment that goes in the suppressor slot and is basically a suppressor with better stats (+5 EVA over normal) which helps her tanking ability somewhat. Whether this is worth it up to you, but definitely get the Mod1 at least.

The rest of this is basically the same song and dance where she has top class offensive buffs that continue to remain unmatched among SMGs, so you WILL likely continue to use her.

TBH, I forgot she existed, because while her skill's effects are nice, she has a 20 second cooldown and 4 second uptime so...lmao have fun with that.

Potentially has uses for some enemies, but uh, you usually have better choices.
