Privaty: Unkind Maid build & priority
Skill priority
| Skill 1 | Skill 2 | Burst |

Best harmony cube
Like most shotguns, Bastion. She already has reload speed thanks to skill 2, so doesn’t need Resilience.
Stat priority
ATK and Elemental damage as priority. Max ammo and crit rate as filler lines. Hit rate is good, but she also gets it on her basic attacks.

Review
The best maid is finally here (until Anis gets a skin) and she is surprisingly good. Let’s talk about her kit and possible team compositions to understand what makes her a really solid option not only for raids but shotgun compositions in general.
Skill 1 is a big part to her damage, allowing her to deal extra additional damage every 3 shots offburst (10 pellets per shot if you don’t miss any) or every 2 shots while in burst if paired with units like Leona that increase the number of pellets per shot.
The bad part about this skill is that the targeting “Affect 2 enemy unit(s) nearest to the crosshair”. Because of how the layering works in Unity3D, a lot of times your mouse will target first the units closest to your NIKKES instead of the ones closest to your crosshair, example below on how layering is done for games like NIKKE.
Skill 2 has two different lines, the first one is pretty simple: if you hit more than 5 pellets on a single shot, you get increased reload speed. This will have 100% uptime unless you are reloading or in cover because of specific mechanics on bosses / stages.
The second part gives attack based on number of pellets that hit the enemy. This has some issues, since maintaining 5 stacks is hard and only achievable with Tove/Leona. You can maintain some stacks even only using one of the previously mentioned units, but uptime with full stacks will be quite low depending on your team composition.
Lastly, her burst provides attack damage instead of ATK and 88% critical damage, which is huge. Attack damage is always better than ATK as a buff and more sought after for extra damage, and when paired with crit rate units, this burst helps a lot with Privaty’s damage. It also deals final ATK on her modifier, which scales with buffs and OL gear.
Honestly, a surprisingly DPS unit even if we consider that the team compositions are quite limited right now because of the newly introduced “increased pellets” mechanic. She will see usage on raids and elemental content, since she pairs with other electric units quite well.
Team compositions
Compositions with Privaty will depend on who your supporters are. Tove/Leona means using S.Anis is a lot harder, and she will lose a lot of damage since she cannot have 1 bullet. Your last spot in the team can be a healer or a support unit like normal Privaty.
Leona’s composition that benefits both shotgun units.
Universal composition since Maid Privaty isn’t restricted by last bullet mechanics (Red Hood can be any good DPS unit).

Should you reroll for Privaty: Unkind Maid?
She is an excellent unit and solid DPS shotgun, not a bad option to reroll if you don’t mind her downsides or limited team compositions.
