Anchor: Innocent Maid has a dedicated review/guide available. You can find it by following the link below.

Pros & Cons
Pros

  • Very decent healing, allows for comfortable Raid teams, and some unique PvP teams.

  • Has cleanse - a rare and situationally very meta mechanic to have in Nikke.

  • Cleanse comes after 3 bursts, synergizing perfectly with Mast: Romantic Maid.

  • Decent Distributed Damage▲ buff.

  • Provides an overall high value Caster’s ATK buff for all allies

  • Provides the unique Reload Speed buff for all allies.

  • Join the Community Uplift Network of New Youngsters!

  • Let Ingrid cook. Elysion Tower duo is finally here! Slowly but surely we are watching a tribe tower being revived from the rubble.

Cons

  • 10/10/10 supporter.

  • 40s B2.

  • Requires another 10/10/10 to Mast as a pair to work at her peak in PvE.

  • ATK▲ buffs are common and easily diluted.

  • Needs time to stack some of her buffs, reducing her usability in Campaign and PvP.

  • A lot of caster’s ATK buffs make her very investment-dependent.

  • PSA: Very very dangerous to look at in public. Be careful out there.

Investment Tips

Skill Investment

Here's the explanation for all the numbers and colors used in the guide:

  • 10/5/7 means upgrading Skill 1 to lvl 10, Skill 2 to lvl 5, and Burst Skill to lvl 7,
  • Yellow means the immediate investment when u get the unit. There are 3 reasons for this:
    • If the unit is Meta or High Priority, it will have a starting investment of more than 1/1/1 (such as 4/4/4) depending on what the unit provides.
    • If the unit is Medium or Low Priority, 1/1/1 will be mentioned, meaning no immediate investment is required, and you can invest in this character if you need to use it according to the priority listed.
    • If we deem that a unit does not have usable skills to be meta for any gamemode, no investment will be mentioned.
  • Blue means minimum investment to take advantage of the Nikke's skills. There are 2 reasons for this:
    • Sometimes, minimum investments are breakpoints such as for Noir or SAnis.
    • Sometimes, minimum investments are just the ideal way to progress to upgrade that unit, before moving on to Recommended and High.
  • Red means recommended investment for F2P players,
  • Purple means maximum recommended investment, in order to get the best out of the unit. You should only try to reach these investments if you have a surplus of Skill Books leftover.

More info:

  • The skill investment list below features a lot of Level 4 and 7 because they are easier to understand. Any higher levels will cost a new type of resource.
  • However, you may choose to upgrade to Level 5 if you need a stronger effect instead of 4, as the increase in Blue Manual cost from Level 4 to 5 is still low. The leap only starts from Level 6 onward.
  • There is also a leap from Level 3 to 4, so if you want to save a tiny bit of Blue Manuals, then leave at 3 instead of 4.
Gear Investment

This Overload (OL) Recommendations and Priority guide unravels in detail everything you need about a character in terms of priority, overload targets (effects), and order of acquisition, alongside some notes to explain our thinking process.

For OL targets and order of acquisition, we decided to divide the target effects into several categories.

  • Essential: With all gear combined, your unit must have the roll(s) prescribed as a minimum requirement. Example: Charge Speed on Alice. You cannot compromise on these rolls.
  • Ideal: These rolls will improve your unit's performance significantly. Aim for 2 lines of Essential/Ideal per gear for maximum performance and the best Return on Investment (ROI). If you get 3, you are lucky. You can choose to only have 1 as well to save materials. Example: Elemental Damage on Scarlet.
  • Passable: Low-priority line that has either limited value or the impact is not as strong as other rolls. Should this show up as a bonus together with a better line, you can choose to keep them. Example: Charge Speed on Red Hood.

Overload effects are ordered by importance from Left to Right, which means anything on the left provides more value than the right. Effects that belong to the same group generate too similar an impact to make a difference (and are sometimes interchangeable). Try to follow this order as faithfully as possible for maximum mileage.

Additional tips:

  • Priority (PvE/PvP) isn't necessarily lower than Priority (Universal), which has no tag/label. It just indicates that this unit performs only in select types of content.
  • If a suggested effect has the number ×2 next to it, that means you should get the effect on at least 2 gear. The same idea applies to other numbers.
  • Focus on obtaining Essential(s) then you can start worrying about optimizing your rolls. Units require these to function, and the impact is too massive to ignore.
  • If a unit has no Essential(s), that means their performance is not that dependent on OL, but they can still benefit from good effects.
  • Remember that this is just a recommendation list, and attaining perfection is impossible. You will have to make some compromise, pick whichever rolls you desire the most, and conserve as much material as possible.

Alice
About the team

In this comp, we focus on overloading our units with maximum Reload Speed, allowing them to Fire to their heart's content. Both Rapi: Red Hood and Alice scale well with this. Crown is likely the better option here despite Mast's alliance with Anchor. This is not something you'd normally do in Solo Raid, but it might be something viable for Union Raid or Anomaly Interception, so keep that in mind! If you use Crown, then Anchor can be treated as an Off-Burst B2 or occasional B2.

Crown instead of Mast: Romatic Maid

About the team

While we did indeed mention that Anchor’s fate is destined to be to take care of a drunk Mast, we have news for you. Insane QoL update alert! By far the best team yet for an easy Kraken daily run. This team is able to comfortably stage 6 or stage 7 Kraken provided your DPS are decently invested into. With above average investments, players should be able to get to stage 7 on full auto with this comp. Players may need doll investments to survive the QTE on full auto.

About the team

2025. The year of Elysion! Ingrid stays cooking. The duo provides a new perspective for Elysion tower meta, and takes over the job of healing, Burst gen and buffing, all at once! Rapi: Red Hood insanely benefits from their buffs, and while the remaining B3 spot is quite weak in terms of pushing higher deficits, we still have solid options and even some synergy in Phantom! We finally have something solid for Elysion Tower, so start pushing that stage you have been stuck on for ages!
