Combat Simulation

"Let's take out the trash."

This article may require cleanup, for the following reason(s):

• Some more tips should be added here
• Should add maps of all difficulties of the different modes here

Overview

Combat Simulation allows you to send your T-Dolls on various training missions. It requires Commander Level 12 to be unlocked.

Performing simulations does not use ammunition or rations, but spends energy. One point of energy is gained every two hours, up to a maximum of six. Should you run out, more may be bought from the store. Extra energies are used when your main energy runs out.

The first four simulation are divided into three difficulties; Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced. Missions of a higher level have a higher difficulty and a correspondingly higher reward.

Reinforcement Exercises

Reinforcement Exercises.

Basic training.

Intermediate training.

Advanced training.

Reinforcement Exercises open every Monday, Thursday, and Sunday. It provides Enhancement Capsules, which the Commander can use to strengthen T-Dolls and HOC units. All training levels involve sending one echelon down a fixed path to fight an enemy echelon. Random nodes that can be found along the way may drop Enhancement Capsules or random resources. The higher the difficulty is, the more rewards the Commander can get.

• Basic Training provides guaranteed x1.
  • Random node has a chance for +1, increasing potential reward to x2 total.
• Intermediate Training provides guaranteed x2.
  • Random node has a chance for +1 or +2, increasing potential reward to x6 total.
• Advanced Training provides guaranteed x3.
  • Random node has a chance for +2 or +3, increasing potential reward to x12 total.

Data Sampling

Data Sampling.

Team selection screen.

Data Sampling simulation battle provides Training Data, which is essential for skill training for both T-Dolls and Fairies. Commander can use any owned T-Doll for this sim, including those who are in the middle of repair, logistic mission, or expedition.

Commander is given a maximum 30 seconds to beat the Training Drone. Successfully beating the drone within the time limit will award the Commander with Training Data. Faster time corresponds to higher amount of reward.

• Basic Training: 10,000 HP.
  • Maximum reward: x218.
• Intermediate Training: 20,000 HP.
  • Maximum reward: x98.
• Advanced Training: 40,000 HP.
  • Maximum reward: x53.

Experience Training

Experience Training.

Basic training.

Intermediate training.

Advanced training.

Experience Mode is identical to actual combat, with several exceptions. T-Dolls which die in combat here will not lose affection. Additionally, there is no enemy phase and T-Dolls do not consume Ammo or Ration.

Experience Mode cannot be paused once it is started.

Once it is completed, you will receive fixed amount of EXP split evenly between all T-Dolls present in the simulation, meaning the less T-Dolls you bring the more individual EXP they will each gain. The amount of experience given is dependent on the difficulty of the mission and on the number of enemy echelons you successfully eliminated, with a 2x bonus awarded for fully clearing the mission.

Leaving low-level teams you want to level on drop zones and bringing just enough to clear the mobs is an effective strategy for maximizing efficiency, but be careful as the mission will be failed if all T-Dolls are killed. Even if only one T-Doll survives the simulation can be cleared and the valuable bonus EXP awarded. Furthermore, no additional EXP is awarded to a squad that defeats a mob.

• Basic EXP training rewards 20,000 EXP split between all participating T-Dolls.
• Intermediate EXP training rewards 80,000 EXP split between all participating T-Dolls.
• Advanced EXP training rewards 240,000 EXP split between all participating T-Dolls.

Corridor of Cloud Atlas

Corridor of Cloud Atlas.

Basic training.

Intermediate training.

Advanced training.

Unlocks at Commander Level 60.

Neural Cloud Corridor is available everyday This simulation battle provides the Commander with Memory Fragments which can be used to perform Digimind Upgrade for eligible T-Dolls. Similar to Capsule Mode, the Commander sends an echelon to clear one enemy echelon down a fixed path riddled with mystery nodes, which may award the Commander with either extra Memory Fragments or random resources.

• Basic Training provides guaranteed x8.
  • Random node has a chance for +3, increasing potential reward to x11 total.
• Intermediate Training provides guaranteed x20.
  • Random node has a chance for +5, increasing potential reward to x30 total.
• Advanced Training provides guaranteed x30.
  • Random node has a chance for +10, increasing potential reward to x60 total.

Defense Drill

Defense Drill.

Echelon selection interface.

Unlocks after clearing Chapter 2-4 Night.

Defense Drill is a survival mode, it has a fixed cost of 5 energy and you can assign up to 4 T-Doll echelons. The objective is to survive for up to 109 waves, each wave will give you a certain amount of Calibration Tickets, and every 10 waves there will be a boss which rewards you a package with resources, gems, and Calibration Tickets. The rewards increase with each passing wave.

Wave Checkpoint Rewards:

Wave	Resources /	Calibration Ticket	Gems
10	300 / 100	5	5
20	600 / 200	10	5
30	900 / 300	15	10
40	1200 / 400	20	10
50	1500 / 500	25	15
60	1800 / 600	30	15
70	2100 / 700	35	20
80	2400 / 800	40	20
90	2700 / 900	45	25
100	3000 / 1000	50	25
Total:	16500 / 5500	275	150

Keep in mind that progress is saved and thus Commanders cannot go back to earlier wave stages, this also means that packages are a one time reward and cannot be re-obtained. Importantly, losing with one echelon will result in a complete loss, regardless of remaining echelon status. Additionally, retreating an echelon or attempting to exit a defense drill run will result in a loss as well. If a Commander loses, they will receive a checkpoint, which is the wave after whichever boss wave was last defeated.

The enemy composition changes between 5 and 10 waves and gets increasingly stronger each wave. At the later stages of the Drill, you will most likely need specialized compositions to get through, as there will be difficult night battles. Once you've completed all waves, you will start at wave 101, this means that you will no longer obtain First Clear Rewards and will only be able to farm Calibration Tickets after fully completing the Drill to wave 109.

Sangvis Cultivation

Sangvis Cultivation.

With the arrival of Protocol Assimilation, Sangvis Cultivation simulation battle is added to provide Coalition units with items needed for their growth and upgrade.

What makes it different with other simulation is the Commander cannot use their own T-Dolls for this simulation. Instead, Commander will be provided with random selection of T-Dolls for each simulation mode that will be refreshed on a weekly basis. These T-Dolls are level 100, fully-linked, well-equipped (fully enhanced and calibrated), and came with max skill level. Enemy lineup is also refreshed on a weekly basis. Each mode will get a different enemy lineup, which consists of one of the three opposing forces; Sangvis Ferri, KCCO, and Paradeus.

This sim battle consists of three modes. It uses different type of sim energy, which recharge at the same rate as the standard sim energy. Each mode has their own bonus day. During bonus day, reward received will get multiplied by three. Sunday will grant bonus for all mode. Commander can also gain extra reward by clearing the sim under par time, 10-20%, which will yield 10-20% extra reward.
