Tove has a dedicated review/guide available. You can find it by following the link below.

Pros & Cons
Pros

  • Currently the best support unit for SGs

  • Likely a sleeper unit; may see more use in the future as new units are released

  • Considered to be a potential unit for the Top 5 Teams of Solo Raid

  • Grants one of the highest and longest ATK buffs for a 20s Burst I unit

  • ATK buff is based on caster's stats, so it works well for defenders/supporters as it does for attackers

  • A huge max ammo buff with high uptime, in spite of RNG

  • Attack speed is a rare buff, so its benefits are unlikely to be diluted

  • The perk Emergency Bullets allows unlimited shooting with high Max Ammo OL

  • A living stove

Cons

  • Extremely RNG based; can run without retrying but expect varying total damage

  • Buffs activate and deactivate throughout the battle a lot, and bad timings slow down rotations

  • RNG is dependent on OL, increasing overhead; it is also affected by FPS

  • ATK buff is based on caster's stats, thus slightly weaker for attackers, and requires gear investment

  • Most buffs are designed only for SGs, and to make it worse, SG has a limited range and large spread, making them awful in most PvE content

  • Max Ammo conflicts with SAnis' last bullet gimmick, so they can't be paired together without sacrificing some of her kits

  • Steep skill investment curve; Skill 1 needs to be at least level 9, or she is simply sabotaged

  • An expensive late-game unit for maximizing damage in Solo Raid; does not offer much in return for now

Investment Tips

Cube Investment
Pre-overload
  • Resilience Cube

    Resilience Cube

Post-overload
  • Resilience Cube

    Resilience Cube

Base Tove (no Max Ammo) reloads every 6s. This means she will be hitting minimum probability in almost every 5s window. Because of this, we recommend Resilience, but Bastion 7+ is also not a bad pick as it will make accruing 3 stacks within 1 clip easier. If she has high base ammo, you should get Bastion instead, as maintaining stacks is much easier if Tove keeps firing. It also synergizes well with her Emergency Bullet (Skill 1)

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.
  • PvP: These units are more used for PvP.
