Doll review
Overview
C96 is a Flare HG, granting her allies Night Vision at Night.
A HG’s effectiveness is based on their Skill effect combined with their tilebuffs. Flare HGs were reworked to counteract the -90% Accuracy penalty from Night by granting their allies’ Night Vision, similar to a PEQ, instead of only granting Accuracy. While this can situationally be useful, C96 has terrible tiles and does not grant enough Night Vision to make it worth it. As such, C96 is not recommended to use before Modding.

C96 is a Flare HG, which used to be completely and utterly useless. Due to the changes to Flares now offering Night Vision instead, C96 now suddenly has a niche long after her MOD was released.
MOD1 improves C96’s Skill 1 to give 90% Night Vision, returning all dolls to almost daytime Accuracy. Her new Skill 2, Night Sky Pursuer, grants allies 2 ammo to their current clip (if they even have a clip size) and raises their Critical Damage by 20%. She also gets the usual array of buffs, like stat upgrades and improved tiles.
You may feel like C96 is forced into Position 5 if you're using her as an HG in RF teams at night, thanks to her odd tile layout, but her tiles only offer Accuracy so they can often be safely ignored. The 20% Critical Damage bonus may as well be an effective 20% DPS increase for RFs with their natural nearly-capped Crit Rate, while the huge amounts of Accuracy she effectively gives can really help RFs a lot against evasive enemies. With how SCAR-L’s additive damage benefits greatly from having a high Critical Rate, C96 is a decent option for allowing SCAR-L to wear a VFL at night.
Note that you would never want C96 with MGs, because Nova does exactly this except way WAY better (she gives a flat 80 Accuracy to MGs at night, C96 does not even come close).
There’s nothing particularly remarkable about C96, but all in all, what she gains does make her a fairly decent HG to pair with RFs for night battles particularly against more evasive enemies. MOD1 alone is cheap and offers pretty much all of this new support capabilities for her. MOD2 is nice as well for the Crit Damage buff but also not strictly necessary. Her Special Equipment just offers herself some Crit Rate and Evasion; don’t bother and use a S.F. Modified Tactical Light instead.

- MOD1 | RECOMMENDED The improvements to her tiles and Skill 1 is what grants C96 her decent niche as a support HG for Night against evasive enemies.
- MOD2 | OPTIONAL The 20% Critical Damage bonus from Skill 2 is a nice DPS boost but not strictly necessary.
- MOD3 | NOT RECOMMENDED Her Special Equipment is downright pointless. You would want to use a Tactical Light over it at any time.
- SPEQ-set | N/A
Full analysis
Night Vision is additive, so 2 Taclights in the Echelon will bring the total up to 100% NV while C96's Skill1 is active (and 10% while it is not).
As there are far better ways to give MGs Accuracy, C96 should not be used with MGs.
