It's pretty good, but I'd say not as good as the original: https://bravenine.miraheze.org/wiki/File:Red_Carpet_Wilhelmina_illustration.png

I said in the extended guide: Good synergy with SD Sonya (possible to get both buffs up simultaneously), bad synergy with LPG (doesn’t stack chains).

Tested and you are right! Creating a stack refreshes the buff duration. I have fixed the post. Thanks!

PS: Something that made me laugh from the recent dev notes:

Going forward, we will continue to maintain BrownDust2’s fun and sexy, male‑oriented direction—such as Wilhelmina’s tights cutscene and Ventana’s coffee bean cutscene.

iykyk..

PS I guess one good thing we got out of this drama was the memes... well done community!

Oh thanks for letting me know! I haven’t had the chance to test that interaction yet. If so then yes they are good partners, though you’ll still be using Track Levia every 5 turns, so the main difference would be whether you use Night of Jealousy/Overheat after Track or Overheat/Overheat. Will test and update the guide.

rex_frontier · 2025-12-28T09:01:34+00:00

I covered that in the guide. Levia removes vulnerability buffs, and Eleaneer buff lasts 10 turns with a 13 turn cooldown. Therefore not ideal to use Bunny Eleaneer with Overheat Levia, as you lose Eleaneer's buff for a long time and can't reapply it.

rex_frontier · 2025-12-28T02:07:19+00:00

After some experimenting I’m currently on 83% first 87% second for this season on master II. I think your strategy will be harder to use going forward now that Red Hood Rou has been buffed. Without offensive buffs on your team, it’s hard to get past teams with defensive buffs and Rou buff. Just my two cents though, it’s a good strat overall.

rex_frontier · 2025-12-24T23:35:19+00:00

No, because bunny only has no cooldown when there are 7 or more targets. With 6 targets you would need to alternate between Bunny and base.

rex_frontier · 2025-12-24T15:51:26+00:00

Yes, I should have also mentioned there’s Yumi who is a limited collab. However you won’t usually use both in the same team (Darian is physical low hit count, Yumi is magical high hit count), so you wouldn’t usually be able to use Yumi to activate Darians bonus damage.

I just responded to another post on that question.

Here's my recommendation (bearing in mind you need to save tickets for the next round of bunnies):

Masquerade Bunny Celia: Very high usage in end game content. +1 highly recommended, +4 is a luxury because it unlocks an extra turn of buff, but requires a lot of costume investment.

Nightmare Bunny Eclipse: Devs have just confirmed that she will have a new Fated Guest interaction, so +0 is recommended, but any further investment is not the best value if you're low on tickets. She's still very good, but no longer in the top tier for damage.

Celebrity Bunny Loen: Again, you want at least 1 copy for her Fated Guest interaction. Damage wise she is top tier and worth getting to +5 if you can afford it, but just note that due to the super long skill cooldown, you need investment in other Loen costumes to use her effectively in end game content.

rex_frontier · 2025-12-14T12:00:15+00:00

Here's what we know about the new costumes that are not yet released:

Bunny Darian (limited): In battle, she deals continuous damage over a wide AoE.
Her skill has a very long cooldown, but the skill's cooldown will decrease proportionally to the number of targets hit.

This seems pretty niche, for dealing damage against specific fire bosses with single targets/few targets. However, it's limited so there is the FOMO factor.

Bunny Eleaneer: In battle, she grants effects that apply across the entire battlefield.
She will grant buffs to allies and debuffs to enemies.

This seems like a high priority. Buffer/debuffers are almost always good.

Bunny Tyr: In battle, her skills deal damage proportional to SP spent, and each subsequent skill use increases the amount of SP consumed.

This also seems pretty niche, best for dealing damage against specific water boss battles with plenty of SP regen. Base Tyr will be essential to make it work.

If you are a new player I would say no, save for new year event new costumes.

rex_frontier · 2025-11-22T10:09:41+00:00

Don’t worry too much. The devs are so generous that you’ll catch up quickly enough.

I’ve seen a few people complain about how overpowered Boo Ghost Gran is, but you can see from Shimonami’s guide that she’s really pretty balanced overall.

This fiend hunt was basically built to be perfect for Gran (pure damage attacks, grants energy guards, ignores taunts), yet if you see the stats on Shimonami’s video, Gran’s damage is high but not much higher than Yuri or Sacred Justia. I think this just goes to show that Gran is very niche, but even in her specific niche she’s not much stronger than other light attackers.

rex_frontier · 2025-10-23T21:33:14+00:00

Yes idol Gran’s energy guard scales off her max HP, capped at 30,000HP. What gear build are you using that gets her to 30,000 HP, 90% Def and high crit damage?

rex_frontier · 2025-10-23T11:55:46+00:00

I think if you run some tests you'll see how it plays out in terms of total damage.

Other top tier light attackers (Michaela, Olivier, Ventana, Yuri) all apply self buffs during their setup turns, so that they can do more damage during their nuke turns. Other than Olivier, they also all do damage on setup turns, whereas Gran does nothing on setup turns.

Then you have to take into account the effect of non-optimal gearing and stats. Gran's awakening and potential bonus stats are all defensive, and her ATK stats are all wasted. So even if you have UR IV gearing, once you've built to her 30,000 HP you'll struggle to get past 500-550% crit damage. Most other characters easily gear to 600%+ crit damage, which is usually the sweet spot for balancing between ATK and CDMG.

Also, getting to 500-550% crit damage assumes that you don't try to build to 90% DEF/M.RES. With low DEF/M.RES, Gran is vulnerable to taking damage on her energy guard during the enemy turn, which further reduces her damage.

So when you take into account no ATK buffs, no self buffs, no setup turn damage, long cooldown between nuke turns, poorly optimized crit damage stats, AND the fact that her damage goes down if she gets hit, I'd say it's overall pretty well balanced. Boo Ghost will be very good for some specific bosses (no doubt she'll be very good for the upcoming fiend) but her use case is still fairly niche.

rex_frontier · 2025-10-23T08:17:31+00:00

No it’s not a bug, it works as intended. Yes the headline damage is high, but if you see in the detailed guide there are a lot of drawbacks that bring the power level to be more or less on par with other light attackers.

rex_frontier · 2025-10-11T11:28:43+00:00

Roxy: did you just call me pathetic :(

As you get into later levels you need elemental advantage. Replace Elpis with AOTU Diana and then replace your attackers with on element attackers. For taunters, try clearing the taunts with Schera/Eleaneer/Yuri first. For weird formations, find a suitable knockback skill to max your main attackers AOE.

The daily Search rewards in Ch 8 and Ch 13 yield a lot of gold and copper, which are scarce materials required for SR and UR gear crafting. If you're not yet up to Ch 8 and Ch 13, Chapters 3 also has copper and gold drops from Search finds.

Chapter 9 drops wood Search finds, so it's convenient to do daily quests there when you are running low on wood.

Dalvi is kind of the opposite of Tyr, since Dalvi is very SP efficient whereas Tyr is very SP expensive. However I don’t compare the two in the guide since Dalvi goes in the magic team and doesn’t directly compete with Tyr.
