ADA & HASTERAZE WORTH PULLING? | PULL OR SKIP? (F2P & SPENDERS) | Mecharashi

Duration: 18:32 2838 transcript words EN summary

Video summary

Ada is presented as a versatile fighter who effectively combines the re-attack mechanics of Ophelia with the targeting capabilities of Asuka, making her a powerful option for both PvP and PvE content. Her core talent, Condensed Starburst, functions by stacking damage buffs upon hitting units; once five stacks are accumulated, she triggers a re-attack that grants additional AP and temporarily increases her AP cap to allow for further stacking. This mechanic is significantly enhanced at Ascension Level 3 (A3), where she starts the battle with two stacks and gains extra AP if she triggered recovery in the previous turn, allowing her to maintain high damage output throughout engagements without needing to build up resources from scratch. For optimal performance, players should equip Ada with a specific set of skills that leverage her unique kit, prioritizing Shatter Steel as a passive to boost damage against high-HP parts, Skyfall Slash for area-of-effect attacks on up to three targets within an L-shaped range, and Fading Starlight for single-target boss encounters. While other passives like Mirror Heart and Restoring Light offer situational benefits similar to Ophelia's kit, they are generally considered less essential than the core trio of Shatter Steel, Skyfall Slash, and Fading Starlight. An alternate skill slot can be filled with Starfall Flash, which provides mobility and flying target capability, though it is not part of the primary recommended build for maximum efficiency. The recommended mech for Ada is Hastur's, which offers a critical hit rate modification that ensures consistent damage application alongside significant damage bonuses when four copies are equipped. This mech also features a dynamic damage modifier that increases by 25% upon attacking but decreases slightly after each strike until a target is destroyed, rewarding players who can quickly eliminate enemies to reset the bonus. Additionally, the mech's rainbow version provides further power strikes against high-HP parts and boosts neural drive partition power, making it an excellent choice even for Ophelia users. If Hastur's is unavailable, Rev Zero Two serves as a solid secondary option, while Oroboros remains a viable alternative for those without access to the top-tier mechs. To fully maximize Ada's potential, especially for free-to-play players who might otherwise skip her, it is highly recommended to invest in her up to Ascension Level 5, as she ranks among the top fighters in the game. Her build should focus on melee attack chips, critical rate, and critical hit chance, with dodge chips added only if necessary. Essential accessories include the M-Sure Scope from Rex to trigger re-attacks efficiently, a Move Amplifier or Re-Attack backpack to complement her mixed skill set, and specific trigger and reaction accessories that enhance damage multipliers and critical stats depending on whether the player utilizes Rex or Embla's Scope. Overall, Ada is positioned as a must-have character who can easily clear difficult stages and dominate in competitive play with the right investment and build configuration.

Hey guys and welcome to Mecha Rashi. So this is Ada's ultimate guide and I'm getting this out early so that you could farm for her materials. >> [music] >> Before we move to the kit review for Ada and her mech plus the build guide for both of them, let's pass by my JP account. So this is the Ada that I built so far. I haven't played this account much but this is um this account is a of her is actually good. [music] So so far I've been using these two skills here. We'll go to the discussion on the skills later. So this one is the passive. This one is if I can remember right is going to be the attack. This one is going to be the code. I'm not sure. Probably switch both of them this are. This one is the attack. This one is the code skill. So she's going to have a mix of both attack and code skill. So let's discuss that later. Upon checking her what do you call this her neuronics or chips, sorry. I don't have much. I haven't upgraded again and also but I was able to open her up with five bionic superconductors here and for my SD I was able to use has to raise but this is only up to three chevron and at that she definitely is very good already. Even at a three chevron has to raise you can actually rainbow her rainbow her mech probably in a rerun in the future. So don't rush. She's actually good at three chevron. Most recommended for her mech is going to be at rainbow though. So let's go to her kit. If you'd like to take a second look at the pilot profile and all of the skills. I'll be putting this in the link in the description, but with that, let's discuss her talent and she's kind of a she's kind of a mix of she's kind of a mix of both Ophelia and Asuka, okay? Um she gets the reattack of Ophelia and she takes the the targeting of uh of Asuka. So, she's kind of rolled into one. Let's take a look at her talent here. Basic talent, condensed starburst. When actively attacking, for each one unit hit, okay, it's only a hit, gains one stack of condensed one. So, this one is damage increased by three up to a maximum of five. So, this is going to be 15 uh percent damage buff up to five stacks. After the active attack, if possesses five or more stacks of condensed water, removes five stacks, okay? So, when she has a five, then after the active attack, removes the five and gains three AP and temporary AP cap. So, if you do have if you're capped out, don't worry because it's going to be um your your cap is going to temporary go up a bit, then triggers reattack. This effect can trigger one time per turn. So, this one is again, this one gives her her her reattack in terms of mechanic, basically. And at A3, so at the start of the battle, gains two stacks of condensed one. So, this one is kind of kind of required for her if you want to enjoy using her because you get two stacks out of the gate. Uh you don't have to build it up. >> [music] >> Um basically, you're two you already have a two um savings of the condensed one. And at the start of the turn, if condensed AP recovery effect was triggered in the previous turn, additionally gains one AP. So, if you gain condensed one previous turn, you're getting one AP for free. So, that is her kit. This is probably this A3 skill is probably going to going to be more efficient for her if you have this. But, at A0, I think she's going to be good. But, at A3, she's going to be a beast already. Let's take a look at her skills here. So, mobile warfare passive innate after breaking a part re-attack is triggered, which is same as Ophelia if I remember. Unable to move before the attack, this can be effective up to two times per turn. Then, let's take a look at her skills. Let's go through the skills first that I don't think will be used as much, which is on the right side here. So, we have mirror heart, it's a passive. When attacking by melee or range weapons, if equipped with alter blade in both hands and both hands are intact, activates insight dealing 1.2 times damage, can trigger one one times per turn. So, this is similar to Ophelia's kit as well, deflecting melee and deflecting sniper bullets, basically. Next one is going to be restoring light. This is a passive. When any arm is destroyed, up to one arm can be restored up to 50 max HP after combat. This is a nice add-on, supposedly, but she's not there for defense. She's clearly there for offense. So, you won't you won't need these two unless unless you're called upon. So, mirror heart and restoring light, I think you'll have to skip them if you you know, if you're considering them. This one, however, combo breaker, this one is a passive. At the start of the turn, if there are three or more enemies within three adjacent tiles three adjacent tiles gains two gains two stacks of condensed one. This is also nice. If if if the the skills on the left side aren't as good, I could probably equip this, but no. This is not This is This is not going to be part of her kit. Unless, you know, if you want to try it out. Then, this one is flash strike. This one is an attack skill. AP2, cool down zero, uses two alter blades. This is kind of nearing her basic attack. Two times 0.85 damage. Okay, let's go to the left side here. Wherein these skills you will be using most of the time. Okay, the the top three skills that I will be using I will be discussing first. First is shatter steel passive. When attacking, increases damage dealt to part with 50 HP or more by 15%. So, this one because you're you're trying to you know, to take out to take out parts even though they're full HP 80% HP, this is highly going to be triggered. So, this one is I think a must use in her kit. Then, we go to the next one, which is probably I think the top skill that you should use, especially in clearing mobs. So, skyfall slash. This is a code. Uses two alter blades to attack all enemies within a L-shaped. This is not an I-shaped. This is an L-shaped 3 by 1 tile or L-shaped 3 by 1 tile area ahead. So, this one is a 1.5 times AoE damage can enter aiming on each target individually. This skill is actually nice because the L-shaped you're going to be you're going to be targeting a maximum of three targets. You could you could select a different aiming for each of them. Let's say for example, the first target you target the the arms, the second target you target the What do you call this? The body. And the last target you target the legs. That is possible. So, you could aim separately for each of the targets that you acquire for. This one, this one is the best one. I actually I'm very happy with this skill. And the last one that I'm using is Fading Starlight. So, Fading Starlight here is going to be I think the one that you use for [music] a single target or a boss. So, use two Alter Blades to attack a target dealing 2.5 2.4 damage. This attack prioritizes the body and grants two stacks of condensed two. So, not bad. This is actually I think my finisher for single targets that that you don't need to use this. You could [music] deal big damage with this skill. Plus, this one gives you condensed one of two stacks. Okay. The other skill that I am actually kind of swapping in a bit sometimes is Starfall Flash. So, this one is your fourth skill. Selects one target including a flying target with four adjacent tiles. This skill she actually got from Asuka. This one is a flying skill and strikes with Alter Blade dealing 1.2 damage. Enters aiming mode before attacking. After at- tacking this unit will be positioned on a random unoccupied tile within one ring around the target. So, with that said, this Those are your three. This is your fourth. Again, she's going to be a mix of Ophelia and Asuka. So, you're going to have fun with her. For the neural drive, okay. So, let us see here. For the neural drive here, A and B the these are basic ones that you need to get, so I won't be discussing this. But for your gamma sector, well, let's go with gamma sector one first. This one is for Terminator, AP cap one, re-attack, and Terminator as well. Basically, your gamma sector one is similar to This is similar to what do you call this? This is similar to what you have for Ophelia. Okay? I'm going to be moving to the other side here, just to make sure that you see the skills. Okay? So, um I've been using for Ophelia, I've been using these. Okay? Because Ophelia's kit is more direct and uh uh gamma sector one is going to need uh up to here for Ophelia, okay? For Ophelia, but for her for her uh for uh Ada, she's going to need up to here for gamma sector two. She's more built for the condensed uh mechanic that she has. So, from 10 to 16, condensed can stack up to seven times, which you need Actually, you need this as well. Both gamma sectors are actually good, um but for here, you're going to have condensed stack up to seven times. Additionally increases crit uh hit chance by 3%. So, that is going to give you a lot of stacks for crit hit chance. And talent effect increases to restoring five AP, additionally grants Starburst lasting for one third. So, she will be using gamma sector gamma sector two. Okay, as for her mech, uh we do have Asteria's here. Um best mech for her, best in suit, okay? Um this mech is has a crit rate mod, which you'll not be running out of basically, that's plus 10. Then at uh four out of four when you have four copies of of what do you call the part, so damage dealt is increased by 10. When attacking, damage dealt is additional increased by 25%. So 10 + 25 that's 35%. So and a decrease of 5% on each attack and resets upon destroying a target. So 35 you attack, you decrease the 30 and so on and so forth. So every time you attack after 35 it decreases 5% and resets once you destroy a target. So the quicker you destroy a target with this, the better actually. Then at rainbow, so power strike mod when attacking the part with HP greater than 60 of max HP um damage dealt is increased by 18 and computing power of the lowest unlocked neural drive partition is increased by plus three. So meaning, okay. So the unlocked neural drive partition is increased part part three. Okay, let's go to back to the neural drive here. So for the neural drive um the unlocked one basically I think what that says is you'll be increasing a plus three. Let's say if you if you have this at plus 16. Okay, you have this at plus 16. Uh you could have a plus three for this side here. Okay? So basically that will solve your problem to be able to reach 10 for gamma sector one if you're going to be reaching a 16 here. So that is why this mech is actually very good. So you have a an extra plus three just to activate the 10 points here that you have for your gamma sector one. Again, this is that is why if you use it also with Ophelia, she's going to be enjoying it as well. But for now, again guys, the mech is very powerful, I tell you. So, that is her her skill, basically. So, I'm actually happy that we're going for this. And let's take a look at her build. Okay, then so let's start off with her build. So, I'm going to not going to be discussing her talent again. So, it's best that you get her to A3 because it unlocks more condensed. And there's also AP recovery as well. So, again, do recommendation, you're going to have her at A3. Overall, she's she's going to be a monster, guys, both PvP and PvE. And also here, mech options, we have Hastur's as your primary option. Second option, if you if you don't have an Hastur's right now, and if you don't plan to get the mech, and if you have a Rev Zero Two, >> [music] >> then definitely go for Rev Zero Two. The last option would be Oroboros for her build. So, again, for the skills, as I mentioned, Skyfall slash. This one is the code skill that your primary code skill code skill, not cold skill. Code skill, then your primary attack skill would be Fading Starlight, which is for single target. Then you have your primary passive, which is Shatter Steel. And an alternate skill or code would be Starfall flash. So, I suggest, okay, honestly, I don't want you to invest in her just five just to I'd like you to invest in her A5 because even for free-to-play, because she is she is actually the top fighter in the game. So, why not invest fully in her? These are just options, but my recommendation is really five. Um, you'll never, you know, you'll never go wrong when you have red five, to be honest, to max her out. For her chip recommendations, we have um, uh, melee attack, we have crit rate, >> [music] >> then crit hit, if you lack some crit hit, then you do need dodge for her. So, again, um, binary semiconductor investment is dependent upon your appetite to invest on a pilot, but I would suggest, guys, to get hungry with with the investment with her, because she's going to help you clear and easily clear a lot of stages, plus she's going to be a monster in PvP, especially if you're, you know, if you are af- after really a good score in sandbox. So, again, guys, please make sure that you get her. So, for the module, um, M-Sure Scope, this is from Rex. Uh, this one triggers for re-attack. I would highly advise this, honestly, for her, uh, because, uh, I've usually I've also using this with Ophelia, and with Ophelia, it's she Ophelia is really a monster with [music] M-Sure Scope. Then, your other options are Dominator Locator, Mirror Core, Basher, Sword Mod, and Crit Rate Mod, okay? For the weapon, so, we don't have her signature weapon yet, but we have Excalibur, which also we're using with Ophelia, and soon we will have Ophelia's signature weapon, which you could use with her as well. Then, for the, um, the backpacks, I would suggest a move amplifier re-attack, because she has a mixed of she has a mix of attack and code skill, so, you want to maximize that with a re-attack. So, preferably move amplifier, or a amplifier re-attack, because this one gives you additional movement plus one. So, and also for your trigger accessory, the best one here, I would say would be this one. When actively attacking targets within three tiles, and if you're using Rex, sorry, if you're using Embla's Scope, this is actually good. When actively attacking attacking if possessing three or more buffs, this one for the Rex or Embla's Scope, this one is also good. If you're more on code, then you use this trigger accessory, but these two, I think are good. I'd rather use this primarily and this and this one if you're using Embla's Scope. For the reaction accessory, this these are more on damage, so damage damage skill damage multiplier attack multiplier, and then this one is crit rate up. So, that is it for the build. I will putting this in the description of the video, so you may check this one [music] out. Comment down in the comment section, guys, how many you're going to be getting over, and take care. I'll see you in the next one.
