Doll review
Overview
M1911 is an extremely common HG that everyone gets when they first begin the game. With a smoke grenade skill that is the exception rather than the rule, M1911 is unique, but not especially useful. She is also cheap to raise: being only a 2★ unit that drops from all maps.
As a smoke grenadier she rarely sees use outside farm comps, and with the inclusion of ZiP .22, she is outclassed in this situation.
Pros
Skill
With a 1s initial cooldown, Smoke Grenade comes out fast and acts fast.
Cons
Tiles
The cross shape of her tiles make M1911 suitable for position 4 in a team, where she can buff ARs or RFs on positions 1 and 7. However, there are many other HGs competing for this spot - SAA, Stechkin, K5, Grizzly, just to name a few - and with only 20% ROF and 50% Acc, M1911 is not one of the strongest options.
Skill
ZiP .22 does what Smoke Grenadiers attempted to accomplish, but better. If you need a 1s ICD slow, just use ZiP .22 instead.

The MOD for this classic handgun gives her a rather unique identity, with M1911’s new upgrade leaning more towards a damage dealing role than the buffing/debuffing that is typically expected for most HGs.
Her Skill 2, Desperate Sharpshooter, has M1911 fire off 7 quick attacks after throwing her smoke grenade - they deal double damage and target the furthest enemy first, then targeting progressively closer enemies. Thanks to being a smoke grenade user (the only HG to be so at time of writing), M1911 can be useful for keeping the team safe from threatening enemies; her MOD skill’s appreciable early burst can help deal with any potential smaller mobs, or for using M1911 as the solo farmer in low-difficulty event maps.
That’s right, M1911 MOD is also good for cheap farming! The burst damage can be enough to take out weaker formations by herself, and M1911 works great when paired with either another HG or AR as a flexible and low-resource farming team if her own DPS is insufficient. Running these budget teams can save you a lot of resources when farming the same map hundreds of times in events - the reduced cost adds up pretty quickly.
However, as time has gone on, the amount of enemy echelons M1911 MOD can effectively solo has decreased. HP values are only increasing, and the dedicated farming maps simply don’t have enemies weak enough for her to solo. This is not to say M1911 does not have her place in farming, she’s still good at it and some might find value in her. She’s still a HG and is held back by HG stats and lack of Armour Penetration, but M1911’s unique abilities make her a decent Neural Upgrade candidate. MOD2 is the best value overall as her SPEQ is an underwhelming upgrade over regular Hollow Point ammo.

- MOD1 | NOT RECOMMENDED The stats and other improvements alone are not enough to justify leaving her at MOD1.
- MOD2 | RECOMMENDED The Skill 2 is what granted M1911 her cheap farming capabilities.
- MOD3 | NOT RECOMMENDED M1911’s Special Equipment has never had any notable effect on her farming ability, so it can be ignored.
- SPEQ-set | NOT RECOMMENDED The SPEQ-set is entirely useless as it adds debuffing to a Doll whose only purpose was to kill low HP targets fast. The actual GZ SPEQ only grants +15 Acc compared to an RMR, optional at best.
