For Summer Cinderella, focus on overload gear with attack and elemental lines, push her skills evenly to 10, and run her with a flexible Burst 1, Burst 2, and another strong Burst 3 teammate. The guide says you usually do not need dupes, and it recommends switching between Bastion and Resilience Cube depending on your setup.
What Summer Cinderella Needs First
prerequisites
- Equip her doll to grant extra HP, attack, and defense stats.
- Raise affection rank and manufacturer upgrades; both give her additional stats and improve performance.
- Dupes are not required; they provide a small damage increase, but the guide classifies them as optional rather than a must-have.
Overload Gear Lines to Aim For
Aim for four elemental lines and four attack lines across her overload gear, mix in about two ammo lines, and use either crit rate or crit damage as the last stat slot without over-farming for perfect rolls.

steps
- Chase four elemental lines and four attack lines for her overload gear.
- Use around two ammo lines—mix them in as needed, without aiming for an exact split.
- Pick crit rate or crit damage for the last stat slot, but do not over-invest materials to perfect it.

Skill level plan for Summer Cinderella
Push all three skills to 10, moving them up together; the guide does not set a special order, just recommends keeping them at the same pace instead of leaving one behind.
Harmony Cube Choices
comparison
Bastion Cube
- Fits well if your setup and OL lines lean toward sustained firing or extra ammo.
- Run it if yours is higher-level than Resilience.
Resilience Cube
- Alternate if Bastion is not a fit or if your gear and ammo setup prefer it.
- Recommended if you are compensating for other gear choices or OL lines.
Decision
- Pick the higher-level cube if deciding between the two, and let the rest of your build dictate which fits better. No need to force another cube setup.
Team Compositions That Fit Her
Build teams with a Burst 1, Burst 2, and another strong Burst 3 support, using flexible swaps for each slot based on what you have available.
steps
- Burst 1 slot: Liter, Anis, Moran, or Mulan for support or keeping the team alive.
- Burst 2 slot: Crown, Naga, Nayuhta, Grave, Mast, or Little Mermaid as flexible choices.
- Burst 3 slot: Pair Cinderella with Red Hood, Snow White, Privaty, Helm, or another strong DPS if preferred options are not available.
- Flexible swapping: Substitute other characters if your core choices do not fit the raid or solo content, as the guide notes several variants can clear current content.
Doll Equipment, Affection Rank, and Dupes

Also worth knowing
- Charge effects: Overload charge-related substats do not benefit Cinderella’s build if her weapon is not charge-based; avoid wasting resources on mismatched gear.
- Cube choice detail: Bastion may outperform Resilience Cube for setups where extra bullets or sustained firing matter in your content.
- Cube selection is situational: The cube advice is flexible; choose Bastion or Resilience based on your gear and team setup, not as a strict rule.
