Should you summon Makiatto in Girls' Frontline 2: Exilium? The answer is largely yes, but with some important qualifications.
Why Makiatto is Worth It:
Makiatto remains a top-tier single-target DPS unit, even in the established Chinese server. Her exceptional damage output makes her a valuable asset. However, she shines best with manual control; her effectiveness diminishes in auto-battle modes. Crucially, her Freeze ability synergizes perfectly with Suomi, a top-tier support character. If you already possess Suomi and are building a Freeze team, Makiatto is a must-have. Even outside of a dedicated Freeze team, her potent DPS makes her a strong addition to any roster.
Reasons to Skip Makiatto:
If you're fortunate enough to have already secured Qiongjiu, Suomi, and Tololo through rerolling, Makiatto might offer less of an upgrade than expected. While Tololo's late-game DPS is debated (with potential future buffs rumored), having Qiongjiu, Suomi, and Tololo already provides a strong core team. In this scenario, conserving resources for future units like Vector and Klukay might be a wiser strategy. Unless you urgently need a second team for challenging boss fights, Makiatto's impact would be minimal with Qiongjiu and Tololo already in your lineup.
Ultimately, the decision depends on your current roster. If you lack a strong single-target DPS or are building a Freeze team with Suomi, Makiatto is a worthwhile investment. However, if you already possess a powerful core team, consider prioritizing future characters. For more Girls' Frontline 2: Exilium guides, check out The Escapist.
