General Shop
Always buy the first item as it is free.
Always buy raw battle data with credits before lvl200 (NOT Battle Data Set Case). Buy core dust if it’s sold in credits and you are level 200+
Remember to refresh the shop once daily once your Infrastructure Core reaches level 11.
Do NOT buy equipment from the shop.
Union Shop
Currency used for Union Shop is Union Chips, acquired from participating in Union Raids. I recommend getting enough Resilience Battery to get your Resilience Cube to level 7 first, then Bastion Battery to get your Bastion Cube to level 7 before considering other options.
Body Label Shop
The currency for this shop is body labels. Body labels are acquired when you pull extra dupes/copies of R and SR units. A R unit dupe gives 150 body labels, while SR unit dupe gives 200 body labels. An extra dupe of SSR unit (if you somehow get your SSR unit to Core+7 and pull another copy) gives 6000 body labels.
If you are F2P or light spender, only buy the High-Quality Mold (SSR mold). The molds will help unlock 5 MLB faster and be valuable to breaking through level 160. Re-energy and consoles are given out regularly during events.
Whales (heavy spender) can consider buying the item on sale daily, and manufacturer (red) consoles for your main DPS. This is because the manufacturer consoles increase ATK. I do not recommend buying class (green) consoles unless they are for sale. Pilgrim manufacturer consoles are the best buy if you use Pilgrims (Scarlet, Harran, Modernia, Snow White, Rapunzel, Isabel, Noah) often. Once you have maxed out your manufacturer console(s), you can consider buying other consoles or simply buy High-Quality Molds.
For Dolphins (middle level spender), I recommend buying High-Quality Molds until you obtain 5 MLB and at least 1 copy of your high priority unit(s) (e.g. Liter), and buying the manufacturer (red) consoles for your main DPS.
Arena Shop
Arena shop items are bought with Arena Exchange Vouchers, which are acquired based on your rankings in Rookie Arena and Special Arena.
As of 14th March 2023, the items worth buying are the code manuals sold out of box, and occasionally the Code Manual Selector Box if you need the specific code manuals urgently and have extra currency to spend. The code manuals are used in upgrading a Nikke’s skill above level 4, refer here for the specific cost.
Equipment is NOT recommended as a buy here, as the shop does not offer you higher level gears than the ones you can acquire from Interception.
Mileage Shop
It is not yet known if the mileage units will ever change or rotate. You can view the current available mileage units below.
There will be one random unit from each group available in your mileage shop every day. Note that this is ONLY for spare bodies (limit breaks and cores), you CANNOT buy a new unit from regular (silver) mileage. It costs 200 regular (silver) mileage to buy a spare body. Certain units and Limited units are not available in the mileage shop.
Only the current rate up unit(s) can be purchased with 200 gold mileage that is gained by pulling on rate up banners with advanced recruitment tickets. Gold mileage carries over from one rate up banner to the next.
Since the update that introduced the treasure/favorite item system, a new slot has been added for Nikke that have gotten their favorite item added to the game recently. The treasure pool depends on the release-season of Nikkes favorite items.
Treasure
This pool has been removed, instead you can only buy a seasonal selection box. 200 silvers for spare body; 200 golden for full Nikke. Options:
I recommend holding on to your mileage for as long as possible for F2P, so that you can use your mileage to MLB (3 star) units for five MLB SSR to break past the level 160 cap.
Group 1
Group 2
Group 3
Group 4
Group 5
Group 6
Group 7
Group 8
Group 9
Not Available
All Nikkes that are not mentioned are unavailable in the mileage shop.
Event Shop
Event stamina is worth buying if you have 100% drop rate (after hard mode unlocks). Do NOT buy before hard mode unlocks, as you will not receive daily free event stamina when over-capped.
Typically, if you play the Story Event every day, you will be able to buy out the whole shop without needing to buy any additional event stamina with gems, minus the raw Core Dust. If you wish to buy all raw Core Dust, you will need to buy additional event stamina with gems, and you may not be able to buy out the rest of the event shop. I only recommend buying the raw core dust if you are near or over level 200.
If you are able to buy out the whole event shop, simply buy the items that will help you immediately first.
If you are unable to buy the whole shop, I recommend prioritizing: Advanced Recruit Vouchers (prioritize if less than 5 MLB) > Recruit Vouchers (prioritize if less than 5 MLB) > Skill Manuals+Burst Manuals > Consoles > Core Dust box (prioritize if level 1~120 or level 200+) >= Battle Data box (prioritize if level 121~199) > raw Credit (early game when Tactic Academy is not maxed > raw Core Dust > Re-Energy
Recycling Shop
The currency used in this shop is Broken Cores, which you acquire from Co-op Coordination events. You get 1200 Broken Cores per attempt, adding up to a total of 10800 Broken Cores in the 3 days duration of the event. You get another 14500 to 17000 Broken Cores based on your Co-op Ranking.
A total of 25300 to 27800 Broken Cores is gained every 2 weeks, while the total cost of clearing the entire shop once is 15510 Broken Cores, and 31020 Broken Cores twice. This means you are unable to clear the entire shop, and have to choose which items to prioritize buying.
Additionally, a new currency was added during the Stellar Blade collab: Rusted Bones. This currency can be obtained from playing the challenge mode in co-op battles and be used to buy maintenance kits and T9M-selector boxes. 200 boxes = 1 selector.
Note: This table is for people who joined after Chainsaw Man event and missed out on approximately 78000 Broken Cores from the 3 Co-op events during that duration. If you participated in the 3 Co-op events, you can simply buy everything. This table also assumes that future Co-op event is ran every 2 weeks, and reward from Co-op Ranking stays the same.
| Item | Cost | Purchase Attempts | Total Cost | Priority | Notes |
| 50 Gems | 500 | 5 | 2500 | Medium | Although 500 gems every 2 weeks is a small amount, using these to buy event stamina and farming core dust is worth it. |
| Darling for a Day | 400 | 1 | 400 | Very Low | Poor value compared to the manufacturer specific vouchers. Not recommended to buy. |
| Elysion VIP Buffet Voucher | 600 | 1 | 600 | Low | Buy if you want to level an Elysion unit’s bond to higher levels in short time. |
| Missilis VIP Card | 600 | 1 | 600 | Low | Buy if you want to level a Missilis unit’s bond to higher levels in short time. |
| Tetra VIP Spa Voucher | 600 | 1 | 600 | Low | Buy if you want to level a Tetra unit’s bond to higher levels in short time. |
| Pilgrim Supply Set Voucher | 600 | 1 | 600 | Low | Buy if you want to level a Pilgrim unit’s bond to higher levels in short time. |
| Abnormal Annual Ticket | 600 | 1 | 600 | Low | Abnormal units are collaboration units, which are event limited and should be released less frequently compared to the other manufacturers. However, the only way to increase their bond level is using gifts. |
| Credit Case (1 hour) | 30 | 12 | 360 | High | Recommended to buy if haven’t maxed out Tactics Academy. Also recommended if you are levelling T9 or T10 (Overload) equipment. (After clearing campaign 16-28) |
| Battle Data Set Case (1 hour) | 100 | 6 | 600 | *Very very low – Medium | Recommended to buy for mid-game progression. Can be used to convert into core dust later on (200+). |
| Core Dust Case (1 hour) | 100 | 6 | 600 | Very high | Always buy these, you will need a lot of core dust especially in late game. |
| Credit Case (2 hours *3) | 180 | 10 | 1800 | High | Recommended to buy if haven’t maxed out Tactics Academy. Also recommended if you are levelling T9 or T10 (Overload) equipment. (After clearing campaign 16-28) |
| Battle Data Set Case (2 hours *3) | 575 | 5 | 2875 | *Very very low – Medium | Recommended to buy for mid-game progression. Slightly better value than the 1 hour case version. Can be used to convert into core dust later on (200+). |
| Core Dust Case (2 hours *3) | 575 | 5 | 2875 | Very high | Always buy these, you will need a lot of core dust especially in late game. |
| 100000 Credits | 100 | 5 | 500 | High | Always buy out especially if you haven’t maxed out Tactics Academy. When your outpost is level 93 or higher, you can buy credit cases instead of this, as those give higher value with outpost level 93 or higher. |
What’s the best to buy with DNA points?
I recommend buying the item on sale every day. If you are a free to play player, you can choose to skip re:energy sales.
Use DNA to buy High-quality molds believe me even it has shitty rate but it another shortcut to help u breakthrough 160 wall
The shop guide has been updated 🙂
I hope there will be a guides for cash shop 😀
like xx per USD something like that
Thanks for your feedback. I will try to write a paid shop guide soon.
When Laplace gonna be in Mileage Shop?
it’s random every day
I think I saw Alice Spare Body being available in mine (once or twice). Read somewhere that Pilgrims could also be there but it’s very rare.
i’m a newbie player at around level 20 what do u recommend on what to buy in the shop?
Is Aria still in the shop? I’ve been waiting for weeks and she hasn’t appeared once? The other 3 in group 4 have each appeared several times…
This page is full of misinformation.
And where I might ask?
For the Recycling Shop – strong disagree with low priority on gems. Think about it. 1000 broken cores translates to 10 1h core dust cases. Or to 100 gems. With 100 gems you can buy refresher for an event and do a 5 runs of a hard 1-11 event stage. Which gives 20 1h core dust cases on top of a guaranteed 250 event tickets with chance for 250 extra. So it’s actually worth at least twice the amount of core dust with a bit extra on top compared to simply buying them from the shop.
“Abnormal units are collaboration units, which are event limited. These units should be released less frequently compared to the other manufacturers, meaning you should have enough time to level their bond with advise.” Abnormal units cannot be advised at the moment. Gifts is the only way to increase their bond level.
Snow White: Innocent Days seemingly added to group 6 as of Nov.1 2023 1st anniversary update.
So If you got all the Snow White: Innocent Days from the 1st aniversary and have 5 units lv 200+, the best buy would be Snow White: Innocent Days for this is the only way to get her that I know.
Any priority recomendation for silver mileage in case you already break lv.160 wall and have all unit that is in the silver mileage shop?
I also have the same question
I would add a small amendment to the arena shop. I haven’t gotten very far so it might be different for higher tiers, but for t7 items with manufacturer it might be worth it to buy matching ones for your main squad if you only can clear interception S (so before unlocking EX), since it’s only 50% for each run (1.5 items on average per day) and you’re not exactly guaranteed a specific manufacturer. Eventually they’ll drop but it is easier to circumvent rng if you get them in shop earlier.
It might be just a specific point I am at in campaign but it’s still helpful to know that it’s not always 100% a scam.
An update on that, as soon as you hit the EX interception it seems to be absolutely worthless to buy anything from there. Basically, if it gets you over the 16-28 hump, or if you’re not really concerned about arena tickets it might be worth it for that small time-frame, otherwise it’s just as in the guide.
Yes, what I did as well
Kilo’s spare body has been added to the Mileage Shop
Kilo is now in Groupe 5 in the Mileage Shop
Bro Millage Shop spare body needs to be updated. New Nikke’s spare bodies are available in the shop like Laplace, etc., Thank hope you w get 3
Edit:
…Thanks. hope that it will be updated soon or later. (Sorry Typo)
this needs to be updated
What’s the update you’re hoping for? There’s been no mileage changes since Kilo, other shops barely changed with no priority changes. So what are you looking for here?
I don’t see anything in the groups tabs. I disabled all my ad-blockers but still no images to see which nikkes are available.
Someone knows where I can see them?
Rapunzel: Pure Grace has been added to the Mileage Shop (Group 7)
Looks like battle data has use again.
Mori appeared today in the Mileage shop in group 8
Thanks for noticing, she hasn’t popped up yet for me 🙁
Chime appeared today in group 4
“DO NOT buy after lvl200.” wtf?
Are you even playing the game? xD
Most of this information is old. Before they added the ability to convert battle data into core dust, this was sound advice. It no longer is, obviously.
It is very hard to keep track of every piece of advise given in any guide. As you already said, it used to be the way to go but honestly. Having passed synchro 500 a while ago, Battle Data is still good to buy when pushing multiple levels at a time and/or opening boxes for a good boost. Updated the recommendation.
