Debuff(s) Intro
Debuffs are rather uncommon in Nikke, but they do exist. the more notable debuffs are ATK down, Burn Damage, Reload speed down, Poison, and stun. The only notable “Debuff” that can’t be cleansed/Shielded (Exception: D has stun immunity) is Sentries from campaign. Attempting to cleanse/shield sentry stuns will prove unfruitful.
There are also select Nikkes that can debuff themselves, as it is part of their skill kit. These Nikkes are:
These buffs can also be Cleansed/Shielded, which can be for better or worse (Mostly worse). As cleansing these debuffs can either cancel out the buffs, or the debuffs are intended to make the Nikke stronger.
CLEANSING A2 AND ANIS:SPARKLING SUMMER DEBUFFS IS FULLY NOT RECOMMENDED, AS IT IS NEEDED FOR THEM TO DEAL DAMAGE/ FUNCTION BETTER
Skill 1: Cleaning Time
Activates when entering battle. Affects all allies.
Perfect Maid: Gain debuff immunity to 1 debuff(s) and stacks up
to 1 time(s) continuously.
Activates when own HP falls below 90%. Affects all allies.
ATK ▲ 5.19% of caster’s ATK for 5 sec.
Does what it says, shields against 1 debuff. Also gives a miniscule ATK buff when under 90% HP, this effect can be proc’d via her skill 2 (less than 50% uptime) or simply getting hit enough. Leveling up this skill will only improve the lacklaster ATK buff she gives through out all levels.
As you may notice, her ATK buff is not permanent if her HP falls below 90%. This means that she needs to be re-healed to above 90% or the ATK buff will not proc again.
Skill 2: Rest Time
Activates after 420 normal attack(s). Affects all allies.
Perfect Maid: Gain debuff immunity to 1 debuff(s) and stacks up for 1 time continuously.
Activates after 120 normal attack(s). Affects all allies.
Max HP ▲ 15.62% of caster’s Max HP without restoring HP, lasts for 5 sec.
Skill that Procs around every 35s~ not accounting for reloads, and if fired against a target throughout the duration. When accounting for reloads without any assistance from buffs, this jumps to 45s. Her Max HP buffs has around 40%~ uptime, which in turn means that her ATK buff from skill 1 lasts as long too. Leveling this skill only affects Max HP gained from this skill. If there is an already existing debuff, instead of “shielding”, this skill cleanses it instead.
Despite looking like a pretty simple skill, this skill has 2 unique things going for it.
MAX HP Buff
Since her Max HP buff isn’t tied to full burst, this means healers from all burst slots that heal via Final Max HP gets slightly buffed. Such Healers include, but not limited to:
Note: Do keep in mind that Ade’s Max HP buff does NOT heal
Privaty Interaction
Privaty’s Mag reduction counts as a debuff. This debuff can be cleansed while retaining her reload buff, this can be useful for newbies that run Nikkes that are very reload heavy (Scarlet), this interaction is much less powerful once the player unlocks overload gear + max ammo rolls. Ade can prevent Privaty’s debuff every 3-4 full bursts, assuming there are no other debuffs to be cleansed
Burst: Mealtime
Affects all allies.
Max HP ▲ 25.15% of caster’s Max HP without restoring HP, lasts for 10 sec.
ATK ▲ 10.15% of caster’s ATK for 10 sec.
Rather lack luster buffs, rather small ATK buff, with only a select few DPS’s that can take advantage of the Max HP buff. These Nikkes are:
Edgy Gang
- Scarlet – Bursting Below <50% HP Grants a Crit rate buff, Ade’s Max HP buff should help Scarlet reach that threshold faster
- Guillotine – The lower her current HP is, the higher her ATK boost is.
- 2B – More Max HP = More ATK
The solo burst II buffer slot isn’t very heavily contested, as the most meta supports as of right now require them in pairs (Tia/Naga, Noir/Blanc). When comparing her to other Burst II’s, Ade’s ATK buff is actually somewhat competent. we’re spoiled
Campaign
Honestly, Ade is not a terrible choice in campaign as a solo burst II. She functions similarly to Rupee instead of fully focusing on damage, she also gives some niche buffs that some Nikkes can use, while offering cleanse. Although, genuinely needing a cleanse in normal campaign stages are very few and inbetween, but it Ade still is an option.
Of course, if the team does not have a Strong Burst III burst generator (Red hood, Alice, Laplace), Anis is always recommended if the team is running a cooldown reduction Nikke (Liter,Volume,Dorothy). If burst generation isn’t an issue or if Cooldown reduction Nikkes and the support duos are not available to use, Ade is a ok option.
Privaty Cleanser
As mentioned prior, Ade can cleanse Privaty mag debuff every 3-4 Full bursts. Which can be useful when can be useful when using Ade with reload heavy Nikkes (Scarlet). However, This interaction is a bit more complicated if placing Modernia with Ade. Ade cleanses all stacks of Modernia’s Debuffs per proc HOWEVER her critical damage buffs will remain. Although it is preferred for her to cleanse Privaty’s Debuff instead, it still helps Modernia a bit with her ammo management if used with Ade.
Arena
Nothing much here. She has low burst gen with mediocre buffs. She can block Blanc’s damage taken debuff. But it’s not a complete counter because Blanc also heals and provides a more often or not, tide turning Indom buff as well. Even in her “best match up”, Ade severely gets outclassed, not recommended to use.
Special Interception | Union Raid | Solo Raid
No bosses in special interception inflict any debuffs, and debuffs in Union Raid/Solo raid are rather rare, Ade is not expected to be used at all unless cleanse is needed or simply due to the lack of burst II Nikkes. However, her buff cleanse can be somewhat useful for newbies without the meta duo supports when paired with Privaty, and using reload heavy Nikkes (Scarlet, Modernia, Christmas Ludmilla)
2B Team
Team that focuses on pumping as much Max HP into 2B. Mast and Novel does a much better job buffing her burst damage, however Ade can be used if there’s no option to use them. Sakura is a team 5 pick / Off meta pick. Use Liter / Volume if using this team in Special Interception.
Guillotine Team
Not the hardest hitting team at all, But should get the job done. Moran is used instead of Noise here due to Gullotine always wanting to be at low health. Do note that Moan does have a “Limited” HP pool, and can only take so much punishment. Sakura is a team 5 pick / Off meta pick. Use Liter / Volume if using this team in Special Interception.
Strengths
- Unique Cleanse Trait
- Luckily, the skills that she’d be used mostly for are effective / Does not Improve From level 1
Weakness
- Offers too little outside her Niche, and even inside her Niche, she can still get outperformed by simply stronger buffer Nikkes Unless the Debuff is crippling enough.
- Not a Neko.
Should You Wishlist?
No, she’s from the Tetra faction, where there’s an ample amount of Nikkes that are really good. She’d be low on the priority list.

| Ade | —– | Skill 1: 3 Skill 2 : 1 Burst : 3 | S2 > S1 | Skill 1 and Burst give too little to invest to. Skill 2 Needs to be at level 5 to even proc her Skill 1 outside of full burst. Most of the time, the Player will be in Full burst Anyways. Upgrade to level 5 if wanted | Low |
