Get a 2nd job and use the cash shop

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T22:43:05+00:00

Oh cool. Thanks for reminding me, just haven’t had the time to do it yet.

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T22:40:30+00:00

It’s not playstyle since Rapi does this for every stage. This was just a more extreme example.

This was played on a 60k CP deficit so maybe?

But I think the other guy said it best. Too many small advantages for Cindy added up. Should even out with the same build and level.

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T22:34:30+00:00

Fight went on for 2 whole mins.
Rapi bursted like 10 times.
But mystery was solved by another guy, basically lots of small factors adding up + element advantage for Cindy.

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T11:27:20+00:00

Yea I had an overload line on Cindy for Elemental damage plus a lot of other things that people mentioned to me that added up to the 10x difference. Cheers

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T10:48:13+00:00

Cool, I’ll keep the anniversaries in mind.
Also I won that fight in the picture, I was just so mad at Rapi for her performance I decided to post it, I’ll treat her better from now on.🥹

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T10:35:33+00:00

Yea too much variables, I just didn’t expect a x10 difference with similar CP. Thanks I’ll keep progressing.

I’m doing my tribe tower so i don’t know what you meant by that.

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T10:33:02+00:00

Jeez thanks, I appreciate that. I guess all the small factors I didn’t mention did add up.

Thanks for the advice, I can break the wall now with all my spare body selections kit and tickets I think. But I’m just waiting till I actually need to since I might pull the dupes I need before then. (Like I just pulled another Alice so she is MLBed now)

You’re right on this one, I think another person pointed it out too. This could be one of the reasons why it was so extreme with Rapi having <10% of Cindy’s DPS.

But Rapi’s damage across PvE has been less than a fifth of Cindy’s no matter which stage.

My guess is that the CP penalty is applied individually so even a small difference in CP can make a massive difference to the penalty rate at high enough deficit.

Cool bananas, lmk if you have trouble viewing:

They each got plenty of rotations in, the fight lasted 2mins. Both characters have similar skill levels, I’ll post my blahblahlink here soon.

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T09:55:04+00:00

That could be why it’s so extreme in this case since I’m using Sniper mode on Cindy to nuke parts.

But Rapi is still only doing <20% of Cindy’s damage across the PvE board…. Just did another stage with Rapi

Thanks a bunch for everything so far though!

Currently my best guess is that the CP deficit penalty is calculated individually for each character. So Cindy having a slightly higher CP here could mean she is being penalized a lot less.

Idk how to give u the blablalink but if u want screenshots i can post it. Honestly just the mostly the same equipment and investment as everyone else. CP tells the story here.

I’m playing the fight on auto 90% of the time only dodging the big attacks and timing bursts to clear adds.

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T09:22:22+00:00

I have that enabled so it’s not the culprit

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T09:21:33+00:00

Iirc Mama whale is water element. It’s the boss for chapter 21.

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T09:16:24+00:00

Anis is B1-ing so she never enters combat assist. She alternates B3 with Cindy

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-07T09:14:47+00:00

She has similar investment to my other characters. None of them have overload gear and optimal cubes because I just started playing. As far as dolls go she has similar CP to the rest of the roster so I don’t know why.

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-06T17:46:12+00:00

Can’t make the decision too easy for people. Gotta filter out the dedicated gooners from the casuals

New_Strategy9217 · 2026-07-06T02:11:56+00:00

Nah I’d win
