Despite having the lowest armor among the shotguns (tied with Captain China), her skill offsets this a bit. Also has the lowest HP among the 4 star shotguns though, but whatever, she can still take hits. Her main downside is the shitty aura, but she can at least do the job of eating hits.

Unlike the other shotguns, she's focused on firepower instead, with her skill basically making her go DAKKADAKKADAKKA. You would want an Acc scope on her so she can actually hit anything. Sometimes used in 1SG/1HG/3MG formations to provide MAXIMUM FIREPOWER. Tiles are a little eh for that though. Armour is average.

The Queen of Gluttons, and reason you lock up your ration storage. If you get -MRE tiles on random nodes, don't believe the fake news, its just a cover for her breaking into your food stores. No seriously, all her damned lines are related to food, EVEN HER OATH LINE.

Actually has a really nice skill but has fairly average stats. Her skill doesn't work with slugs, only further highlighting how shit slugs are. Her defenses are actually not as good as some of the others, but she has good offensive stats (for a shotgun). Basically a direct upgrade to unmodded Type-97.

A Heavy Cruiser from Kantai collection that got lost somewhere.

Not a superlative shotgun, but has a decent aura for 2SG formations where she wants to be in the 3 position, because 20% firepower is nice if you absolutely need a second shotgun and have no room for an HG. Her skill would be better if it didn't have such a godawful startup time. Like SPAS, her armour is not exceptional.

Not to be confused with PP-19-01. Decent stats, interesting buff tile, but like all grenade SMGs kinda superfluous.

Between Zas (same area, more damage, enemy debuff), molotovs (a lot more damage and damage over time, smaller area), and airstrikes (all the area, more damage) there's plenty of better options to sacrifice your enemies on the altar of Megumin. Can be pressed into service if you're really lacking off tank options, I guess.

Extra notes available.

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

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.

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.

Hon hon ho—

Actually, cores.

Is a terrible grenadier (low multiplier AND long startup remove any usefulness of her range) with mediocre stats. Will literally be outperformed by 3 star ARs.

No, her exclusive equipment doesn't save her from that godawful skill.

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.

When her artist read up on her, she was kind of horrified and drew a weak-bodied hospital patient who hates her defective form. In the actual game, she is a good performance AR-buffer. Her skill is somewhat peculiar, because she does not buff herself, but she more than makes up for it by turning the other two ARs into veritable murder machines. Presumably because the other ARs are horrified at the thought of her dying out with them and wanting to kill the enemy as soon as possible.

Like her real life counterpoint, ultimately disappointment despite being not quite entirely worse than many competitors.

She's not the worst grenadier out there, but in the end, both 416 and SOPMOD are better than her, and you don't need more than a few grenadiers. She DOES have a mod now. Shame that outside of a few very niche scenarios, the above statement still applies.

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.

Once a darling 4 star MG with good 1st mag performance, a good skill and decent performance. Her unique gear is pretty decent even. Unfortunately she got powercrept by later MGs like Kord. If you need an MG early on for some reason though, she's pretty ok.

A Christmas tree! Will be her primary job at your base probably. Suffers from the curse of an MG that lacks a passive, a first burst-active like hunting impulse, or usefulness during the day. She has a unique that makes her better than base MG4, which is... not saying much. Unfortunately that unique is also no longer available.

Mod MG4 has some uses now so uhh....goodbye Ameli. Merry Christmas, you're a tree.
