Leonahas a dedicated review/guide available. You can find it by following the link below.
Provides some CRIT Rate + CRIT DMG with 100% uptime if you pair her with a well-invested Tove.
Increased Optimal Range for SG is a buff never seen before, despite its small value.
Looka very cute!!! •̀⩊•́
Cons
Possesses a misleading kit; Skill 1 and Skill 2 barely boost her usability.
Optimal Range Distance only goes from 25% -> 30%, and not 45% as initially thought.
Half of S2 does nothing, since increased number of pellets gives no boost in damage.
Requires insane investment on Sugar + Tove to even beat Original Scarlet (read: Union Raid Usage Analysis).
CRIR is a non-meta buff in Nikke, so Leona is even less useful outside SG teams.

She needs to maintain her S1 stacks as long as she can, so a faster reload (Resilience) or longer shooting (Bastion) is welcome here.
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.
Priority explained:
Meta: Most Important Nikkes.
High: Good in various PvE content.
Medium: Good in at least one PvE content.
Low: Can perform well but not as good as other units / Situationally Meta / Old Meta
Very Low: Niche usage / Tribe Tower Units
Late Game: These nikkes need investments to reach their potential but are expensive to build. They should be invested after clearing Ch 23 Normal with mentioned priority.
