{{Eventpage
'''Operation Cube+''' ( 魔方行动+ ) is a time limited operation in '''''Girls Frontline''''' from <i style="color:#71fdff">March 30<sup>th</sup> GMT+8</i> to <i style="color:#71fdff">April 20<sup>th</sup> GMT+8</i> 2017. It is an upgrade to last year's summer '''Operation Cube''', with additional maps and more challenging boss fights. The core mechanics remain mostly the same: the entirety of the operation is [[night combat]], which means [[:Category:HG T-Dolls|Handgun T-Dolls]] and T-Dolls with high accuracy and/or the ability to equip [[Armor-piercing Ammo]] or [[Night Vision]] will be highly recommended.

In this special operation, Mica Team deployed a new combat mechanics ''[[Night Combat]]'', with new '''Armored''' enemy type.

===Preferred T-Dolls and Echelon===
+
:For the 2017 event revisit, see [[Operation Cube Plus]].
With night combat in mind, [[:Category:HG T-Dolls|Handgun T-Dolls]] will be a requirement for easier victory. HG T-Dolls with skills like Fire Command or auras to increase accuracy will help greatly in this operation.

For damage output, [[:Category:RF T-Dolls|Rifle T-Dolls]] in general will be at advantage here. Their usually high accuracy and Armor-piercing Ammo will result in reliable dps.

*A simple tutorial level for new players. Eliminate all enemies in 8 rounds for map clearance reward: {{equip name|16Lab Infrared Designator|Night Combat Equipment|5}}.  
  
Secondly, [[:Category:AR T-Dolls|Assault Rifle T-Dolls]] with Firepower skills can also be of good use in boss fights. Bosses in this operation usually have high evasion but low on armor, so with the help of Night Vison equipment, AR T-Dolls can output almost as much damage as they do in day combat.
+
{{clr}}
 
 
Lastly, [[:Category:MG T-Dolls|Machine Gun T-Dolls]] are good with mob fights. With the right HG aura, MG T-Dolls can sweep armored mobs in seconds and take little to none damage.
 
 
 
For echelon build, it would be advised to have at least one RF+HG team or Firepower AR team for boss fight, and one RF+HG team or MG team for mob fight.

*Take the airport in the center of the map, then turn left until you reach the airport on the left edge. Search boss from left to right. There is a slim chance that boss will appear on the left top corner, you can either send an echelon to look for her, or forfeit the game to start anew.

<br/>If you don't have two echelons strong enough for the boss fight, it is highly recommended that you go left since she's more likely to appear on this side of the map.

<br/>Boss mechanics:
 
*Similar to Ouroboros, Executioner Elite in this map has a special attack called ''Excution Hybird Attack'', which she will jump up to launch a massive attack on your echelon, hit tiles 65741(in numpad notation) in this order. The cut scene is fairly short, so it is hard to evade once she jumps, it is best to move fragile T-dolls (like your dps) out of the way beforehand. Executioner Elite will launch this attack at 75%, 50% and 25% of health, and she's invincible during the attack and a few seconds afterwards.
 
*Other than her special attack, Executioner Elite will hit T-dolls in a row with her normal attack. Her target won't change unless the targeted T-doll is offline or retreat. Targeted T-doll could be put into a separate row if you want to reduce overall damage.

*Ouroboros has a special attack ''Knitter Missle Salvo'' which will result in her being invincible for a few seconds (effect close to [[Thompson]]'s Force Shield).

See [[Talk:Operation_Cube#E1-4: Ouroboros and Where to Find Her|discussion]] for more information.
#*'''The neutral node between a random event node and landing zone''' have turned red
 
#If any of the conditions in 3. apply, proceed to these nodes by going south and curving around the Jupiter Cannon to reach the boss. Open up a path with a MG team before using the RF team to fight the boss.
 
#*If none of these conditions apply, the location of Ouroboros cannot be confirmed and it is highly advisable to abort mission and retry. Deploy another fodder echelon and retreat the other echelons through the landing zone before doing to reduce ammo/ration loss.
 
#During the fight with Ouroboros, try to avoid losing HGs before RFs use their skills to secure a quick victory:
 
##As soon as the battle starts, Ouroboros will target one of HGs, and since she does not have a range limit, she will continue shooting that T-Dolls until she is defeated or retreated. Quickly move another HG in front of her to minimize the damage she will take to maximize her chances of survival;
 
##Shortly after Ouroboros will start using her missile attacks to hit the T-Doll closest to her frequently. Be sure to rotate T-Dolls on low heath out of front row to ensure that all HG T-Dolls are alive;
 
##After 15 seconds in, both HG and RF T-Dolls' skills should be ready to use. The concentrated damage from these skills are enough to defeat instantly if the Both the T-Doll and skill levels are high enough. If not, be prepared for Ouroboro's cut-in attack which also makes her invincible for a short amount of time (even after her special attack is finished). Find a time when she is not invincible and use RFs' skills to defeat her.
