Skills
Skill 1: One for All
Activates at the start of Full Burst. Affects all allies who previously cast their Burst Skills.
ATK ▲ 64.51% of caster’s ATK for 15 sec.
Reloading Speed ▲ 44.35% for 15 sec
Affects all allies who did not previously cast their Burst Skills.
DEF ▲ 37.44% of caster’s DEF for 15 sec.
Reloading Speed ▲ 44.35% for I5 sec.
Great skill, especially for beginners. Not only does it massively buff ATK, she is one of the very few Nikkes that buffs reload speed. Crown buffs on Burst III’s have around 60% uptime due to alternating Bursts, assuming cool down Nikkes are used.
Since Def attack is only 0.66x of an attacker on equal investment dupes, realistically this buff would be around 42% of equal investment compared to other Attacker Nikke’s.
This skill allows better team building, and early game instant reload teams. Reload speed above 100% allows for instant reloads when paired with Privaty, which can benefit reload reliant Nikkes such as Scarlet, Modernia, Alice, Guillotine and etc, especially for early game for commanders with no end game gear (Extra max ammo capacity)
The Commander can reload “early” for an even higher uptime right before burst expires, simply by switching between Nikkes. It also simply skips “wind-up” time for MGs, which is usually a huge downside when running MG’s.
Def is pretty useless but, it is high enough where it might provide a whooping (3%~) damage reduction for the team, which slightly varies depending on content being tackled.
Skill 2: Royal Attire
Activates after 43 normal attack(s).Affects self.
Relax: HP Potency ▲ 4.06% continuously. stacks up to 20 time(s).
Activates when Relax is fully stacked. Affects self after the stacks are removed.
Invulnerable for 5 sec.
Attract: Taunt all enemies for 5 sec.
Recovers 5.23% of the caster’s final Max HP as HP
Activates when recovery takes effect Affects all allies.
Attack Damage ▲ 20.99% for 7 sec.
MG’s fire at a rate of 60 per second if the Commander is playing at 60fps, as FPS is tied to most weapons firing rate.
At ideal conditions, her S2 will proc every 14s, and will have around 1/3rd uptime. Her taunt will realistically last slightly longer due to taunted Raptures still “aiming” at Crown. These stacks do NOT expire, and does not need to hit a target for stacks to accumulate
Hp Potency | Recovery
Her HP Potency will max out at 81.2% (Increases healing Received), which will also directly improve her self healing. Crown will heal herself for 9.4%~ every 14s~, which isn’t the greatest healing, but her skill also improves incoming healing from other Nikkes as well, not to mention that she has invulnerability on herself for around 1/3’rd uptime, which might be able to allow her to self sustain in some boss fights.
Her recovery effect is somewhat badly translated, as in game, there is a prompt that says:
This skill will not be triggered by HP restoration
effects gained from group healing.
However, this is “false”. As group healers such as Mary, Pepper, Helm, etc etc still proc the effect. Although there is a healer that is exempt to this due to how her kit works, and that is Rem. Crown needs to be healed specifically for her skill to proc. If Crown is not healed and other Nikkes get healed, her skill 2 ATK damage up will not be activated.
Burst – Last Kingdom
Simple. But extremely powerful burst. Basically a permanent attack damage buff as Crown has a unique 15s buff as opposed of 5s or 10s.
Crown’s shields may be rather “small” but any shield is enough to protect a Nikke from fatal damage once. Her Shield works similarly to Tia, and will proc skills that Tia also procs (Naga)
Her shields can block one instance of a nuke, as long as it only “ticks” once. A great use case is against Chatterbox, Storm Bringer AoE attacks, or Kamakaze Raptures from campaign.
Campaign
Crown is basically the new “king” of Campaign. Crown completely replaces Tia, as they basically fill the same role. However, Crown is much more “independent”, does not need another Nikke to function, and simply buffs better than her.
Crown can proc Naga’s skill 2 passive, which is an amazing buff for the meta sniper Nikkes and Modernia. Not only that, she has 5s invulnerability taunt, which can be heavily utilized in boss waves. Although she may proc taunt in unwanted times, DPS should be more than plenty to take care of waves that might attack her prior to target wave. it also helps that crown can still stack her skill two by shooting into AIR, which would make proc’ing her invulnerability and skill 2 damage up much easier prior to boss wave
Crowns Buffs + Utility Making 390k vs 630k CP look like an actual cake walk (it is). More showcases will be shown when possible. Her skill 2 is much more capable than what is shown in the video.
Crown/Naga Team (Liter BI Variant)
Expected to be the general meta team for crown. Insane damage and versatility. Modernia can be replaced with Alice
Crowns Burst will always be a priority to use over Naga, as Naga’s most wanted buffs are tied to her skill 1 and 2 passives. Make sure Crown is at the left most Slot.
- Rapunzel Can substitute Naga. much less effective than Naga, but can proc Crown’s skill 2 very consistently. A third DPS would be greatly preferred for more utility/DPS still if Naga is unavailable
Crown/Naga Team (Solo Red Hood Burst I)
Veterans and leaderboard clearers are expected to use this team in campaign. Despite being a solo burst I, thanks to Red hoods refresh on CD, 3 full burst rotations should be rather possible and smooth using this team.
for more details, check this section for Red hood for better understanding of this play style
- Rapunzel Can substitute Naga. much less effective than Naga, but can proc Crown’s skill 2 very consistently. A third DPS would be greatly preferred for more utility/DPS still if Naga is unavailable
Generalist Team, Instant Reload
A more traditional 1-1-3 team burst formation. This enables instant reloads for Modernia and Scarlet when using the resilience cube on them. Crown can still take advantage of her recovery effect by abusing shooting into air to get stacks prior to final rapture wave.
Liter can be substituted for Red hood for burst generation and bigger attack buff if needed.
B III replacements will be your preferred DPS’s.
Boss Ignorer Team (Harder to Play)
Have you ever just wanted to IGNORE or serve some supreme CORRECTION against the target rapture? You can just use a Snow white team instead. Crown can buff Snow white very well, and allows 3 free Burst III slots instead of the usual 2 slots when running duos (Noir is a Burst III but her kit is not very desirable)
This team can fit very well against stages that have multiple gas Raptures, especially at the final wave where damage is too severe and unavoidable to handle. This helps the Commander to end the round ASAP.
The issues with Duo Snow white teams is that Snow white is forced with just one other Nikke, which in turn, makes it very hard for her to get through the initial stage mobs. But in Crown teams, a 1-1-3 Formation is is possible, which helps Snow white get through the initial waves much easier.
- B1 Replacements: Dorothy, D:Killer Wife, Volume
- B3 Recommendations: Alice (Burst Gen + DPS), Modernia (Screen clear if Needed), Emilia, Scarlet, Privaty (Stun), Preferred DPS’s.
- Naga Can be slotted in if utility is not needed, and want more OOMPH from Snow white’s burst.
Arena
MGs need a really good kit to be viable in PvP, due to almost nonexistant burst gen, getting deleted by Scarlet and walled by Emma and Diesel, but Crown’s kit may just be strong enough to function despite all of these drawbacks.
The invulnerability with taunt would be good if it wasn’t locked behind 30 seconds of non-stop shooting in Arena. Her buffing capabilities, however, look very promising: up to 57% of Attack Damage if you run a healer, a shield and extra Attack to every ally that used their Burst, so she can find use on nuke teams as a better Blanc buffer as long as you don’t need Blanc’s indom.
For Defense, she has a lot of drawbacks, but Biscuit can allow her to live for long enough to use her burst, even if facing a Scarlet. This will need some proper testing to see if people can find Defense comps where she’s viable.
Special Interception | Solo Raid | Union Raid
Special Interception
Despite having no healing, Crown is still be able to be an extremely solid pick against most bosses. With the only boss she might not be able to manage alone being Blacksmith. She would need a pseudo healer to be able to survive a full round with it. and to a much lesser extent, Modernia.
Otherwise, Crown should be able to demolish all other Special interception bosses due to the massive DPS buffs she’s able to provide. Crown is also extremely friendly early game (If the user has Scarlet/Modernia/MG DPS’s) due to her reload speed buff, and will help new players to complete Special interception EX stage 9 quickly.
Crown/Naga team
Similarly to campaign, this team can easily be used for special interception as well.
Burst I Replacements: Dorothy, Any CDR
Burst III replacements: Alice, Scarlet, Any of your preferred DPS
Flex Slot: Rapunzel, Any Healer(If Naga is not available to use)
Speed Run Team (Late/End game)
Speedrun comp for end game players, stacking as much buffs as possible onto 1 RH burst to kill the boss quickly. For core-less or partial core bosses (Gravedigger*, Chatterbox, Modernia), you can replace Naga with another DPS unit with strong auto attack (e.g. Modernia) or Elegg/D for instant burst.
Specifically for Modernia SI, Modernia and Naga can be replaced with SBS Elegg/D for a quick kill thanks to instant burst; alternatively you can run SBS Modernia if you’re slightly short of killing the boss after 1 burst. As always with these speedrun comps, test in Mock battles to confirm viability before putting them into daily use.
Usually I wouldn’t list said team, but it’s getting easier and easier for near-late game players to form one burst teams. and to notify newer people that such comps exist.
- Rotation = Tia > Red Hood > Crown > Red Hood
Solo Raid/Union Raid
Crown has extremely offensive buffing capabilities, potentially the best buffer even. Crown does suffer from lack of team healing, this can be somewhat managed with proper play and micromanaging her taunts and invulnerability. However, if the boss isn’t forgiving with its attacks, a pseudo healer might be needed.
Dorothy teams have been notoriously hard to keep alive without sacrificing damage potential by using a pure healer (Marciana), even the Biscuit variation struggles to stay alive because Privaty doesn’t get healed enough to stay alive or struggles to deal with bosses with constant AOE attacks that requires covering (Ultra/Nihilister). Crown being in B2 slot makes her a great candidate for Dorothy comps as she provides offensive buffs while increasing their survivability, there’s also reload synergy with Privaty to reach instant reload (with Reload cube) during Burst and halves the reload time outside of burst. While S.Anis Scarlet is still a valid option for Dorothy comps, you’re no longer forced to run Electric units to benefit from S.Anis’s S1 buff, opening up the door to other B3 combos such as Alice + SBS.
Hyper Anis: Sparkling Summer Team
Slightly Awkward team, Scarlet can be the flex Nikke however Boss will most likely target her as most bosses have “target Highest ATK”, which Scarlet in almost all teams due to her ATK buffs, and Crown team simply does not have that sustain to keep Scarlet alive. Biscuit can be used instead, as her damage is extremely decent, and in cases, can close in on Scarlet’s personal damage if there is enough parts to take advantage of (consistently 1+ parts) when invested in this team.
Infinite Reload Team (Dorothy)
Possible BIII Pairs:
- Scarlet: Black Shadow, Alice (Best, Especially if Alice has Lacking Max ammo Rolls)
- Maxwell, Modernia (Modernia does not Burst)
- Snow white, Maxwell (If boss has many parts)
- Preferred DPS’s
As mentioned earlier, Pairing Privaty with Crown and Resilience cubes will enables infinite uptime teams on burst. Visual example should explain everything.
Strengths
- Hands down, best burst II Nikke. Even outperforming both duos in several content ALONE
- Several Offensive Buffs, with very high uptime while only being a 20s Cooldown Nikke
- Can make instant reload teams, which heavily mitigate some Nikkes major downsides (Scarlet,Modernia,MG’s)
- She is part of the best campaign clearer team as of right now, and enables multiple other teams without needing another Nikke to function
- Her Skill 2 Taunt + Invulnerability can be abused on multiple content when timed properly (Campaign, Bosses)
- Will One shot a heretic to protect you and her loyal subjects
Gacha Skin
Weaknesses
- The King has No weaknesses. (Well, maybe just performing just okay in PvP and no team sustain)
- Do Not Touch Chime.
- Extremely tempted to make a new tier for her
You Will Pull.
Ehem. The kingdom will not allow non-crown havers.
You need to mileage her if you don’t get her. she’s extremely good, and will be hard to get after her rate up is finished.
MLB is not very needed as a most of her damage buffs are from skill 2 and burst as a f2p, which are not scaled from her stats. she is not very dupe reliant, and is PERFECTLY fine at 1 copy. However whales and dolphins are very free to MLB+ her anyways
Healing has been “fixed” to allow healing to go consistently to Crown, so Dupes no longer “brick” her. All videos that say otherwise is outdated, as there was a patch at April 29th that fixed this “issue”. Feel free to throw money at her if wanted.
Recommended Harmony Cube
Resilience = Any team with reload speed buffs prefer Reload speed. Since Crown has reload speed buffs, All Nikkes in the team will greatly prefer Resilience over bastion. No question. If there’s not enough cubes for all Nikkes, Prioritize DPS’s first over supports.
Bastion = If Resilience cubes are all used.

I saw how you had red hood in infinity tier for like a few hours lmao
For Some reason, Tier list reverted to a previous version (Not my Domain). It is not actually me making a new tier lmfao
It is insane how OP Crown is. I reset my Tia to max Crown 10 all skills and overload and destroyed entire chapter 27 with 180k cp on my team, easy peasy boyzzzz.
Better make new tier for the king 👑, she deserves it.
I still don’t have modernia, red hood, scarlett and naga.
What the hell do I do now??
Bet you can do is use your Preferred DPS’s at that point
I don’t have red hood, who is the closest to her omnipresent power?
Alice may be the closest (with proper investment). Otherwise, just look at the tier list for DPS you have and use them
I believe that Marciana will work as Flex Healer in the Hyper Anis and Infinite Reload teams. She will also give Crown’s S2 a 100% up time while benefiting from the Last bullet focused buffs.
Does Tia get reset and benched, or would it be better to run Naga/Tia on one team and Crown on a separate team in multi-team content?
Answered that specific question in the guide actually.
https://nikke.gg/crown-best-builds-teams-and-how-to-play/#No
But, tldr. Run Tia/naga and Crown in different teams. Crown is able to function perfectly fine alone, while Tia can’t. She’s still able to provide amazing buffs, and will provide more overall damage compared to running crown/naga in one team.
Does this apply if you do not have Tia?
bros… this gacha skin…
With the release of such a broken character and weeb-bait skin, this is the grandest cash grab of the century! And you fools are eating it up 😂
i love where all of this went and it was all worth it.
so now that we got Crown shaking up the meta, what’s the best teams for solo raid?
Crown’s Hyper Anis team + Maricana?
School girls + Redhood/Alice/Liter?
Bunny girls + SBS, Modernia, Volume,
Re:zero +…. A2? D:killer, Rapunzel?
Lefts for team 5?
oops. Forgot to slot Scarlet up in there.
so Litter-Rem-Emilia-Crown-Modernia would be a good team?
As a Crown owner, she definitely need her own tier, she’s so strong actually lore accurate
The jump between her & Tia is insane lol
What’s up with Biscuit in the Hyper Anis team? Is it just because she’s a RL and provides survivability+Electric ally for S.Anis?
“Biscuit can be used instead, as her damage is extremely decent, and in cases, can close in on Scarlet’s personal damage if there is enough parts to take advantage of (consistently 1+ parts) when invested in this team.”
What gear i do for overload? Chest? Or helm?
