Anchor: Innocent Maid Early Analysis
Overview
- Provides strong healing, slightly below Blancs healing (one of the strongest healers) during burst.
- Cleanses debuffs after third full burst. This is mostly used to maintain Mast: Romantic Maid’s drunken stacks at 3 during full burst for maximum amount of buffs without any drawbacks
- Anchor: Innocent Maid has overhealing based on her base max HP (outside buffs can’t affect this value), this is useful in PvP and facetanking single target nukes in PvE (Train, Sinister, Mace)
- Anchor: Innocent Maid when paired with Mast: Romantic Maid has the strongest buffing potential for Nikkes that mostly deal distributed damage. Currently only Scarlet: Black Shadow fits this, however there are some characters like Phantom and Quency: Escape Queen that can also be paired with these duos effectively
- When paired with Mast: Romantic Maid, they can provide amazing offensive buffs that overshadow 777 squads buffing capabilities (Blanc, Rouge, Noir) in most teams.
Newbie/Incomplete Box Section
The Innocent Maid character is more effective when partnered with Romantic Maid, as her abilities work best in conjunction with hers. However, she can also be used with other Burst II 40s CD Nikkes, but this combination is typically not advised unless the supporting characters offer substantial buffs and have a strong synergy (such as Blanc+Noir or Tia+Naga or Crown+Naga).
The role of the Innocent Maid within the team is to stop the Romantic Maid from fainting once she achieves three rounds of being extremely intoxicated. Other debuff cleaners aren’t effective in this situation, as the Romantic Maid won’t be able to build up her intoxication levels due to immediate cleansing. The Innocent Maid only intervenes when the Romantic Maid has reached her third stage of drunkenness.
Although primarily designed for squads handling distributed damage, they offer a significant boost to attack, reload speed, and occasionally crit rate/crit damage. This versatility makes them suitable for use with various teams, especially those with prolonged reload times or no self-attack buffs (such as Machine Guns, Snipers, Scarlet, Modernia, Alice, etc.).

Skill 1: Starfish (Shaped) Omurice
When you engage Full Burst, it impacts your allies. The effect adjusts based on how many times it activates. If it activates once, it boosts your HP by approximately 30.96% for 5 seconds. If it activates twice, it increases distributed damage by 30.4% for 10 seconds. If it activates three times, it reduces the stack count of debuffs by 1.
If another ally from your squad is still in battle when you enter Full Burst, it affects all allies. Every second for the next 8 seconds, you’ll recover approximately 3.04% of your maximum HP.
As a gamer, I can say that this skill is what keeps my character, Maid: Romantic Maid, from getting stunned when her abilities reach maximum stack. You see, when Anchor (one of her abilities) enters full burst, it has a cleansing effect. Now, when Mast: Romantic Maid enters Burst 1, she gains a “drunken” stack.
The potency of HP in HP-healing increases all amounts except the final maximum HP buffs, thus making her healing approximately 4% to 5% of the maximum HP per second. Interestingly, her distributed damage buff functions as a multiplier within the damage taken bracket (Blanc, Novel), which is uncommon. This makes it complementary with ATK damage up multipliers such as Crowns or Romantic Maid.
Because both her skills 1 and 2 operate at maximum capacity without the need for additional burst, she is well-suited to function as a sub-buffer within specialized teams.
Skill 2: Sea Anemone (Shaped) Pasta
This ability becomes active once the Full Burst finishes and affects all team members. The power of this ability varies depending on when it’s activated, with multiple activations leading to stacked effects. Here’s a breakdown:
– One activation increases Hit Rate by 10.13% for 10 seconds.
– Two activations boost Attack by 35.02% of the caster’s Attack for 10 seconds.
– Three activations speed up Reloading Speed by 40.04% for 15 seconds.
This ability becomes active following the conclusion of a full attack, enhancing her attack power and hit rate for approximately 60-70% of the time during a full burst, given adequate cooldown reduction. However, the reload speed boost is essentially perpetual after the initial full burst because it lasts for 15 seconds rather than the typical 10 seconds.
Her high success rate allows Quency to consistently dodge the ‘Queen’s Wrath’ core attacks, reducing the risk of being overwhelmed by excessive damage due to improper gear.
With her high accuracy, Quency can avoid Queen’s powerful attacks more often, which helps him prevent taking too much damage from inappropriate equipment.
Burst: Seaside Stroll
● Impacts all allies in its range.
Storage: If a target receives healing that surpasses the character’s maximum health points (HP), the extra amount is stored, up to 60.19% of the casting character’s maximum HP, for 25 seconds.
Recovers 40.18% of the caster’s maximum HP as current HP.
ATK ▲ 30.09% of caster’s ATK for 10 sec.
A unique skill that is currently only present with Marciana.
In simpler terms, the temporary health you accumulate functions like a stand-in for regular HP during battle. However, it doesn’t impact other max HP enhancements such as healing proportional to max HP, increases to max HP, and so on. This ability is designed to reset with each rotation because the timeframe to reapply this boost is quite narrow – you need to replenish your burst bar from empty to full (100) in just 2.5 seconds, twice within a single rotation.
As a dedicated gamer, I’ve found mastering this skill incredibly beneficial, especially when squaring off against single-target nukes that could typically take down a Nikke character. It significantly streamlines the clearing process in challenging boss battles and campaign stages. Interestingly, it also proves effective in PvP stall teams, where strategic maneuvering can lead to victory.
Campaign
The Romantic Maid is anticipated to elevate the performance bar for combined efforts by the Innocent Maid and Scarlet: Black Shadow squad. Although they offer numerous additional boosts, it’s believed that the best-in-slot (BiS) team configuration will feature Scarlet: Black Shadow.
Duo team
A harmonious duo consisting of our preferred Damage Per Second (DPS) character, say [Preferred DPS], and the Anchor, who relies on skillful manual spamming, in this case, Innocent Maid, for sustained attacks when burst generation is necessary.
Rapi: Red Hood can be substituted with any CDR
Mastless team
With Anchor: Innocent Maid not requiring frequent activation for many of her buffs, she functions effectively as a secondary buffer in crown teams. This setup maintains a constant reload speed of 100%, enabling infinite ammo from Alice, triggering the Crown’s passive ability, and offering an extra 30% damage boost for Scarlet: Black Shadow.
Arena
Given that Anchor: Innocent Maid is a Role Like character, she exhibits superior burst abilities in Player versus Player situations. This burst could potentially enable creative stalling tactics. It’s reasonable to anticipate that she will be at least useful or decent for gameplay.
More Testing will be done at release.
Special Interception | Union Raid | Solo Raid
Anchor: Innocent Maid is expected to play a big role in Solo raids and special interception.
In simple terms, these two-person groups (duos) have the ability to liberate Crown from the control of Black Shadow teams during solo raids, thus providing greater freedom when constructing your team. This pair is also user-friendly because they possess exceptional sustainability, making solo raids less challenging and more accessible for a wider range of players.
In the case of Anomaly interception, both entities prove to be Best-in-Slot (BiS) against Kraken. This means that resource gathering (rock farming), if commanded by you, would become more effortless if you possess Scarlet: Black Shadow.
Kraken
Red Hood (CDR) is interchangeable in this context, but Alice doesn’t fit the bill as Anchor: Innocent Maid might take over charge speed bonuses that belong to Scarlet: Black Shadow.
Harvester
The duos function effectively with Quency and Phantom as these characters are equipped with damaging bursts, and a significant portion of their power stems from this feature.
Despite the fact that Quency and Phantom’s self-buffs overlap slightly, making them somewhat less potent, using Tia or Crown/Naga teams remains a viable choice, particularly for commanders who don’t have a fully completed box. This could be a useful alternative in such cases.
Solo Raid/Anomaly Teams
The “Best in Slot” teams are detailed in the Campaign section, with additional teams being included in the comprehensive review if new viable or meta teams are discovered.
Should you pull?
Sure, this character forms an excellent partnership with any team you have. Having just one of them is sufficient, but duplicates are preferred because her attack boost depends on the attack power of casters, and duplicates provide a higher value in that regard. After the banner concludes, you’ll be able to get more copies of “Innocent Maid” from the wishlist.
