All W-Engine (Weapon) Guides
Housekeeper is the Best for Corin
Housekeeper is an A Rank W-Engine and is the best for Corin since it buffs her Physical DMG and also provides Energy Regen when she is off-field.
Corin Best Drive Discs
Best Drive Discs and Set Bonuses
| Drive Disc | Rating and Merits |
|---|---|
| Fanged Metal (4-pc) Woodpecker Electro (2-pc) | ★★★ - Best Set! Fanged Metal increases Corin's Physical DMG and also the DMG she deals to enemies when a team member inflicts Assault. Filling up the remaining slots with Woodpecker Electro increases Corin's Crit Rate by 8%. |
| Puffer Electro (4-pc) Woodpecker Electro (2-pc) | ★★☆ - 2nd Best Puffer Electro is a great alternative since Corin can deal a lot of damage with her Ultimate. This can also increase Corin's ATK after using her Ultimate. |
Corin Skill Priority
| Skill | Priority | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
 Basic Attack | ★★★☆☆ | Corin's Basic Attack does not deal as much damage as her Special Attack, so this takes medium priority. Always go for her Special Attack in rotations. |
 Dodge | ★★★☆☆ | Sometimes used by Corin in combat, so her Dodge is a medium-priority upgrade. |
 Assist | ★★★☆☆ | There is no harm in raising Corin's Assist. But, upgrading it has a lower priority compared to her Special Attack and other abilities. |
 Special Attack | ★★★★★ | Corin's Special Attack is the ability that you will mostly use. So, upgrade this one first. |
 Chain Attack | ★★★★☆ | Allows Corin to deal massive Physical DMG using Corin's Ultimate and Chain Attack. This is another high-priority upgrade for Corin. |
 Core Skill | ★★★★☆ | The DMG of Corin's continuous extended slash attack with her chainsaw increases whenever this gets upgraded. So, upgrade this after Corin's Special Attack. |
Corin's kit revolves around dealing as much damage as possible with her Special Attacks whenever it is up, so upgrade it first. I you have extra materials, aim to upgrade her Chain Attack as it deals a good deal of damage in team rotations. Lastly, upgrade the Core Skill to get a great passive that increases her CRIT DMG and improves her skill's damage.

How to Play Corin
- Extend Corin's Chainsaw Attacks
- Use Corin Against Stunned Enemies
- Not Effective Against Multiple Enemies
Extend Corin's Chainsaw Attacks
All of Corin's abilities can be extended when you repeatedly press or hold down their respective buttons. This is done to deal more damage against enemies.
For Corin's Basic Attack chain, we recommend just spamming the Basic Attack button instead of holding it down during the 3rd and 5th Basic Attack to consistently land the extended chainsaw slash attacks!
Use Corin Against Stunned Enemies
| Corin Switch in Combo |
|---|
| Chain Attack → Ex Special Skill → Ultimate (Hold down the abilities' buttons to extend them) |
If the Additional Ability of Corin's Core Skill is active, she deals more damage against Stunned enemies. Do note that this effect will only activate if at least one member of the team is a Physical or Victoria Housekeeping Co. unit.
So, the ideal rotation, when Corin is on the team, is for her to switch in through a Chain Attack when the enemy is stunned. Then, use her Ex Special Attack and Ultimate!
Not Effective Against Multiple Enemies
While Corin is a great DPS to use against a single target, she is not the ideal DPS to use in a situation where there are multiple enemies since most of her abilities force her to stand still. With this, she may not be able to hit a lot of enemies at once.
But, if you have a character that can group up enemies like Nicole, you can use them to gather enemies first before Corin switches in!
Corin Is a Glass Cannon Due to Her Low HP
Compared to other Agents, Corin has a low HP and DEF stat. So, it is not a good idea for Corin to be on the field when fighting against multiple enemies who are not yet stunned by her allies.
