Overview
ARX-160 is an AP grenadier AR. These grenadiers work well against tougher enemies who have high links and are packed tightly together to make the most of the AOE. Because of the long initial cooldown of 8 seconds, fights often end too quickly for AP grenadiers’ skills to really make an impact, and you’d rather use self-buffers if that was the case. Her base stats and skill multiplier are both low, making her outclassed by higher rarity ones like Sopmod II and 416. Her difficulty to obtain and farm because she is only obtainable from campaign or heavy production makes her questionable as a budget option. Her tiles are weirdly shaped and encourage giving the main-tank buffs they do not need.
Cons
Low Base Rof
73 rate of fire is slightly low for an AR
Bad tiles
ARX-160’s tile wants her buffing the off-tank, but the shape is more oriented towards her being on position 7 and buffing the main-tank
Difficult to obtain
As she is only obtainable from campaign maps and doll heavy production, ARX-160 is a bad budget option
