As a long-time fan of this game, I can’t help but feel like a kid at Christmas when I see the sheer abundance of content and updates coming our way in the new year! The variety of events, from the New Gameplay and Features to the Costume Gachas and Mission Passes, promises something for everyone.

Significant modifications to the game are on the horizon, introducing SSR Rapi alongside a Pilgrim Wishlist! The arrival of SSR Rapi also ushers in a novel type of Nikke: over-spec.

Maintenance Start

Maintenance End

1. New Nikkes

1.1 SSR Rapi: Red Hood

SSR Rapi: Red Hood, the Goddess of Victory who inherited the red will, joins the battlefield.

Rapi: Red Hood is an Attacker who fires powerful projectiles.

She has the ability to adaptively move between Burst Stage 1 and Burst Stage 3, adjusting based on her team’s setup and for countering opponents with Wind and Electric Code.

– Class: Attacker

– Weapon: Seven Dwarves Zero (MG)

– Code: Fire

– Manufacturer: Elysion (Over-spec)

* Special Recruit duration: From 00:00:00, January 1, 2025 to 4:59:59, January 23, 2025 (UTC+9)

* How to obtain: Lobby → Recruit → Special Recruit

* Recruit Rules:

①In the Special Recruit section, you have the option to utilize Gems (either free or paid versions) or Advanced Recruitment Coupons for your recruitment needs. Regular Recruitment Coupons are not applicable here.

②The probability of getting SSR Nikkes from Special Recruit is 4%, while the likelihood of obtaining SSR Rapi: Red Hood stands at 1%.

③You can get Gold Mileage Tickets when recruiting in Special Recruit.

④You can exchange 200 Gold Mileage Tickets for Rapi: Red Hood in the Mileage Shop.

⑤When Special Recruit ends, unused Gold Mileage Tickets will not disappear.

Following the update after the Special Recruit event concludes, you’ll be able to acquire Rapi: Red Hood through Regular Recruit and by utilizing Mold items. However, please note that he will not be accessible in New Commander Special Recruit, Social Point Recruit, or the Tutorial version of Regular Recruit.

* Details on Over-Spec Nikkes

1) Recruitment

In the exclusive recruitment process for individuals who exceed expectations (Over-spec Nikkes), there’s a 1% chance that one will be selected as the highlighted candidate.

– In Ordinary Recruitment, Over-spec Nikkes and Pilgrims have a 0.5% probability of appearing.

2) Pilgrim/Over-spec Wishlist

In this latest update, we’ve incorporated the Pilgrim/Over-spec Wishlist. The combined likelihood for this wishlist is approximately 0.5%, and you can choose a maximum of 5 Nikkes (either Pilgrims or Over-spec). Please note that the wishlist will not become active unless at least 20 Nikkes are selected in total.

Instead of overfilling Nikkes on the manufacturer’s wishlist, they can now be placed in the fresh Pilgrim/Over-spec Wishlist. (It’s not possible to add over-specified Nikkes to their respective manufacturers’ wishlists directly.)

3) Mold

– Existing Pilgrim Molds will be updated to Pilgrim/Over-spec Molds.

As a dedicated fan, I’ve discovered that instead of acquiring Over-spec Nikkes directly from their manufacturers, you can obtain them from the unique Pilgrim/Over-spec Molds.

4) Tower

– The Pilgrim Tower will be updated to Pilgrim/Over-spec Tower.

Nikkes with an over-specification can be utilized in the respective Manufacturer towers as well as in the Pilgrim/Over-spec Tower. (In simpler terms, these advanced Nikkes can be employed in buildings designed by their manufacturers or in a special tower called the Pilgrim/Over-spec Tower.)

5) Manufacturer Equipment

Excessively equipped Nikkes can leverage the manufacturer-specific abilities provided by their respective brands.

6) Bond Level

– Giving gifts that correspond to the Over-spec Nikkes’ manufacturer grants bonus bond experience.

– Over-spec Nikkes have a maximum bond level of Lv. 40.

2. New Year Special Re-Recruitment

2.1 SSR Scarlet: Black Shadow

In the New Year’s special re-recruitment event, Scarlet: Black Shadow, who once wielded the blade that vanquished the Raptures, makes her comeback as her former self.

Scarlet: Black Shadow wields a variety of formidable attacks based on the number of hits.

When she activates her Burst Ability, the requirements for each attack become more flexible, enabling her to excel remarkably well during combat.

– Class: Attacker

– Weapon: Fleetly Fading (RL)

– Code: Wind

– Manufacturer: Pilgrim

* Special Recruit duration: From 00:00:00, January 1, 2025 to 4:59:59, January 23, 2025 (UTC+9)

* How to obtain: Lobby → Recruit → Special Recruit

* Recruit Rules:

①In the Special Recruit process, you have the option to utilize Gems (whether they’re free or paid) or Advanced Recruit Coupons. Regular Recruit Coupons are not applicable here.

As a passionate player, I’ve got some exciting odds to share about the special recruit event! There’s a 4% chance I might get my hands on an SSR Nikke, and a slimmer 1% chance for the coveted SSR Scarlet: Black Shadow. Fingers crossed!

③You can get Gold Mileage Tickets when recruiting in Special Recruit.

④You can exchange 200 Gold Mileage Tickets for Scarlet: Black Shadow in the Mileage Shop.

⑤When Special Recruit ends, unused Gold Mileage Tickets will not disappear.

Scarlet mentioned that Black Shadow’s latest recruit doesn’t feature the new character, Nikke (also known as Red Hood). If you want further information, you should look at the in-game recruitment details.

2.2 Temporarily Participating Nikkes

During the “Recruit” phase, you can temporarily include potential recruits (Nikkes) in the “Pick Up Recruitment” of your squad for use at the Union Shooting Range.

The special offer for the New Year’s Step Up Recruitment has arrived! Finish all stages to get a choice of one 1 SSR (Super Rare) Nikke character.

* Recruit duration: From 00:00:00, January 1, 2025 to 4:59:59, January 23, 2025 (UTC+9)

* How to obtain: Lobby → Recruit → Step Up Recruit

* Recruit Rules:

As a gamer, I can tell you that I’ve got the option to utilize Gems – whether they’re free or purchased – for the process known as Step Up Recruit. Regular and Advanced Recruit Vouchers don’t apply in this case.

In Step Up Recruit, there’s approximately a 4% likelihood of obtaining SSR Nikkes, excluding limited-time and certain specified Nikkes. For more specific details, please refer to the Recruit Information within the game.

③You cannot get Gold Mileage Tickets or Silver Mileage Tickets when recruiting in Step Up Recruit.

As a gamer, here’s how I might rephrase that in an engaging and conversational way: “For the upcoming Step Up Recruit tournament, we’ll be splitting it into four exciting rounds. Each competitor gets just one chance to shine in each round.

– Phase 1 = Recruit once (100 Gems)

– Phase 2 = Recruit 10 times (1,500 Gems)

– Phase 3 = Recruit 10 times (2,000 Gems)

– Phase 4 = Recruit 10 times (3,000 Gems)

⑤Upon finishing all stages, you’ll receive a New Year SSR Selection Box containing one SSR Nikke of your preference (excluding Pilgrims, Over-specified Nikkes, Limited-Time Recruitment Nikkes, and certain specific Nikkes. For more details, consult the List in the New Year SSR Selection Box).
