Best Corin Build Guide

Written by Phạm Ngọc Bảo Châu ·

Playstyle Overview

Corin is a free A-Rank Physical Attack DPS who fights with a chainsaw. You hold or mash during her attacks to extend the slash, which her Core Passive boosts. Her burst comes mainly from EX Special Attack: Skirt Alert and her Ultimate during Stun, when her Additional Ability adds 35% DMG.

Corin swaps in during Stun or with full Energy, and you need to manage Decibels to have an Ultimate every Stun. Dialyn is her ideal partner since she is Physical, converts Chain Attacks into Ultimates and extends Stun. Build CRIT and ATK. The catch is that Corin relies on player skill and teammates, and drops off sharply against enemies not weak to Physical.

Best W-Engines

1
Cordis GerminaS1
Cordis Germina

ATK 713 · CRIT Rate 24%

Seed's signature. It has high CRIT Rate, and at max stacks her Basic Attacks and Ultimates ignore 20% DEF. It gets even better alongside other DEF shred sources like Trigger (with her signature) or Dialyn.
Sprouting Core ›

Increases CRIT Rate by 15%. When the equipper deals DMG with a Basic Attack or EX Special Attack, they gain 1 stack of a buff. Each stack increases the equipper's Electric DMG by 12.5% up to 2 stacks. Each stack lasts 40s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

Can trigger once per use of a skill. At 2 stacks, the wearer's Basic Attack and Ultimate DMG ignore 20% of enemy DEF.

*Stats shown are at Base level.

2
Heartstring NocturneS1
Heartstring Nocturne

ATK 713 · CRIT Rate 24%

The best CRIT stat stick for Attack Agents, providing a huge amount of CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG.
String & Melody ›

CRIT DMG increases by 50%. When the equipper enters the battlefield, or activates a Chain Attack or Ultimate, they gain 1 stack of Heartstring. Each stack of Heartstring allows the equipper's Chain Attack and Ultimate to ignore 12.5% of the target's Fire RES, stacking up to 2 times and lasting 30s. Repeated triggers reset the duration.

*Stats shown are at Base level.

3
Steel CushionS1
Steel Cushion

ATK 684 · CRIT Rate 24%

A strong permanent option and the most used one. Its CRIT Rate and Physical DMG suit Corin well. If you fully exploit its back-attack bonus it can even beat Heartstring Nocturne, but most players won't keep that up consistently.
Metal Cat Claws ›

Increases Physical DMG by 20%. The equipper's DMG increases by 25% when attacking the enemy from behind.

*Stats shown are at Base level.

4
Myriad EclipseS1
Myriad Eclipse

ATK 713 · CRIT Rate 24%

Hugo's signature. It's a strong stat stick with plenty of CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG, only slightly behind Heartstring Nocturne.
False Personas ›

Increases CRIT DMG by 45%. When using an EX Special Attack, Chain Attack, or Ultimate to deal Ice DMG, the equipper gains the Absolute Zero Death Sentence effect for 3s. While Absolute Zero Death Sentence is active, the character ignores 25% of the enemy's DEF when landing a hit.

*Stats shown are at Base level.

5
HousekeeperS5
Housekeeper

ATK 624 · ATK% 25%

Her signature, easy to use in burst windows. Her EX Special stacks Physical DMG, which adds a fair share of her burst even though the buff expires quickly. The off-field Energy Regen matters little outside Seed teams.
Safe Household Saw ›

While off-field, the equipper's Energy Regen increases by 0.45/s. When an EX Special Attack hits an enemy, the equipper's Physical DMG increases by 3%, stacking up to 15 times and lasting 1s. Repeated triggers reset the duration.

*Stats shown are at Base level.

6
Starlight EngineS5
Starlight Engine

ATK 594 · ATK% 25%

A dependable free option for any Attack Agent. It has an ATK% main stat plus an ATK buff after Dodge Counters or Quick Assists.
Knight Plummel ›

Launching an Assist Attack increases the equipper's ATK by 12% for 12s.

*Stats shown are at Base level.

Woodpecker Electro

2-piece:

CRIT Rate +8%

Best with Dialyn. Corin always has the Puffer Electro buff during her burst, and you can even keep it through the whole Stun by staggering Dialyn's converted Ultimates with Decibel Ultimates. Without Dialyn it usually falls behind.

Upon entering combat or switching in, its user's ATK increases by 25% for 10s. This effect can trigger once every 20s.

Woodpecker Electro
2-pc ›
2-piece:

CRIT Rate +8%

The easiest set to use and the highest damage potential in Stun windows, since Corin's damage is concentrated in a few key skills. Just be careful not to trigger its effect by accident.

Fanged Metal

Whenever a squad member inflicts Assault on an enemy, the equipper deals 35% additional DMG to the target for 12s.

Woodpecker Electro
2-pc ›
2-piece:

CRIT Rate +8%

Adds Physical DMG and extra damage against targets hit by Assault. It works better when teammates like Yuzuha build plenty of Anomaly to trigger Assault often.

Corin uses a standard DPS build. Go for CRIT Rate on Disc 4. Disc 5 is flexible, but PEN Ratio is best there, and Disc 6 takes ATK%. For substats, balance CRIT Rate with CRIT DMG first, then ATK.

Skill Priority

  1. Core Skill
  2. ›Special Attack
  3. ›Chain Attack
  4. ›Assist
  5. ›Basic Attack
  6. ›Dodge

Her EX Special Attack is her key skill, so level Special Attack together with her Core Skill (which boosts her extended chainsaw slashes) first. Chain Attack/Ultimate is her biggest burst during Stun and comes right after. Assist, Basic Attack and Dodge come last.

Best Teams for Corin

Most Used Teams Right Now

Corin's most used team in both Shiyu Defense and Deadly Assault. Dialyn is her best Stunner. She activates Corin's Additional Ability, converts Chain Attacks into Ultimates and extends Stun. Sunna is a Physical Support with strong buffs.
A variant with Astra Yao. She's Corin's best Support thanks to Quick Assists, extra Chain Attacks, healing, and ATK, DMG and CRIT DMG buffs.

Alternative Teams

Dialyn Stuns and boosts Corin's damage, while Caesar's Shields let Corin attack freely without being interrupted.
For when you don't have Dialyn yet. Trigger supplies off-field Daze and Aftershocks with big buffs, and her Chain Attack places Corin behind the enemy to activate Steel Cushion. Ju Fufu can also replace Trigger.

F2P Team

All three are free and activate each other's Additional Abilities. Corin and Billy take turns dealing damage while Anby Stuns. It's a solid early-game setup.

Best Bangboo for Corin

In teams with Dialyn, Bangvolver is the main pick (needs two Physical Agents). You can also use Sumoboo, Luckyboo (also needs two Physical Agents) or Avocaboo.

In the F2P team, Booressure supplies Energy to the squad and you can get it for free. Bagboo and Avocaboo also work.

Mindscape Cinema

Which Mindscapes Are Worth It?

M2 is a worthwhile stopping point thanks to its stacking Physical RES reduction. M6 is the strongest upgrade, turning her chainsaw detonations into a major damage source. M1 and M4 are decent. M3 and M5 only add skill levels and aren't counted.

  • M1
    When her Chain Attack or Ultimate hits, Corin's DMG against that target rises by 12% for 15s. It fits her burst playstyle.
  • M2
    EX Specials, Chain Attacks and Ultimates lower the target's Physical RES, stacking up to 20 times, which raises her overall damage.
  • M4
    Quick Assists, Defensive Assists or Chain Attacks restore 7.2 Energy (once every 16s), so she can use EX Specials more often.
  • M6
    Extended slashes build up to 40 Charge stacks, and her chainsaw detonation consumes them for extra DMG equal to 3% ATK per stack. That's a huge damage gain.
M1

Open TraumaRecommended

When Corin's Chain Attack or Ultimate hits an enemy, her DMG against the target increases by 12% for 15s.

"The young mistress always said, if something's worth doing, it's worth focusing on."

"I've been practicing, and I can do it now!"

"But... are you watching me...?"

M2

Atomic SmashRecommended

When Corin's EX Special Attack, Chain Attack or Ultimate hits an enemy, the target's Physical RES is reduced by 0.5%, stacking up to 20 times and lasting 5s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

"Sorry, Mr. or Ms. Ethereal!"

"But I've got work to do... I really am sorry!"

Feeling guilty, Corin sincerely apologizes to the monster — as she wields her savage chainsaw, slicing through the enemies in her way.

M3

Amateur Maid

Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack Lv. +2

"I—I'll do my best to become a good maid!" Corin said, walking towards the Ethereals, chainsaw in hand.

M4

Battlefield RetainerRecommended

When Corin uses a Quick Assist, Defensive Assist, or Chain Attack, she recovers 7.2 Energy. This effect can trigger once every 16s.

A diligent and serious young maid, Corin always puts her heart and soul into everything she does.

Of course, that includes taking out enemies in combat.

M5

Special Ops Maid

Basic Attack, Dodge, Special Attack, and Chain Attack Lv. +2

"Uh... sorry, I'm so clumsy. I don't know how to make sure my cuts are even..."

—Said Corin as she looked down at the bits of Ethereal scattered across the ground.

M6

Accumulated ReleaseRecommended

When Corin's extended slash hits an enemy, she obtains a stack of Charge (max 40 stacks).

During a Dodge Counter, Special Attack, EX Special Attack, Quick Assist, or Assist Follow-Up, when her chainsaw detonation hits an enemy, consumes all stacks of Charge. Each stack consumed causes the attack to deal an additional 3% of ATK as DMG.

Corin knows that she isn't the most powerful of maids, nor the smartest. But she hopes to become the hardest working.

She puts to good use everything she's ever learned.

"Can someone like me really manage?"

Victoria Housekeeping Co. feedback from a customer:

Service Capability: ★★★★

Service Quality: ★★★☆

Service Attitude: ★★☆☆

MESSAGE: Don't get me wrong, the part where I didn't give her full stars wasn't because she didn't do a good job. I found her skittish attitude unsettling at first, but the girl did a great job! Every task I gave her she did well. I just don't understand why she always looks so scared, when it's me who should be scared, right? I mean she's carrying around a chainsaw-looking thing!

Speaking of which... That's just a fancy-looking brush, right? Please tell me it isn't actually a chainsaw.

Story

Agent Profile: Corin Wickes

Corin is one of the maids working for Victoria Housekeeping Co.

She is a highly obedient maid but lacks confidence and often fears being disliked by others. When in a rush, she becomes flustered and stutters.

Corin is always apologizing no matter what happens.

"I… I… I'm so sorry! I'm so incompetent…I'll never get things right…"

Corin never, however, fails to fulfill her tasks with excellence and is one of the most reliable members of Victoria Housekeeping Co.

Despite her flawless performance, Corin remains skeptical about her abilities, constantly worrying about being a burden to her colleagues, which can sometimes frustrate Lycaon.

Thoughts: Is Corin's personality innate, shaped by her life experiences?

Increase Trust to Close to unlock more

Corin's health record reveals that before joining Victoria Housekeeping, she faced a critical illness and underwent major surgery.

Cooperation Notes:

Belle

Corin is excellent at her work, but why does she lack confidence in herself…? If only I could share half of my confidence with her!

Wise

Some people are just introverted and sensitive. Fortunately, Corin's companions have complete faith in her capabilities.

Belle, let's encourage her whenever we have the opportunity.

Ghi Chú Hợp Tác

Belle

Corin rõ ràng rất xuất sắc, vì sao lại luôn không tin vào chính mình vậy...

Em thật sự muốn chia một nửa sự tự tin của mình cho cô ấy~

Wise

Có một số người sinh ra đã sống nội tâm và nhạy cảm hơn người khác, may mà những người đồng đội của Corin đều hoàn toàn tin tưởng vào năng lực của cô ấy.

Belle, sau này nếu có cơ hội, hãy động viên cô ấy nhiều hơn nhé.
