Stat Priority
| Priority Stat | Why | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| Charge Efficiency | Fast setup loops are usually more valuable than greedy endgame rolls on utility shells. | Role-based theorycraft |
| Break Intensity | Useful if the utility plan is tied to stagger, shield crack, or tempo control. | Launch candidate |
| HP / DEF | Keeps the unit on-field long enough to deliver utility reliably. | Launch candidate |
| ATK | Take it when the utility kit still contributes meaningful personal damage. | Needs live scaling confirmation |
Skill Priority
| Priority | Upgrade Reason | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| Core Skill | Best first investment for builds that need a central damage button or defining loop. | Role-based heuristic |
| Basic Attack / Loop | Upgrade next if the build spends large parts of its rotation on-field. | Role-based heuristic |
| Ultimate | Raise once the main loop is already functional and burst windows matter. | Pending exact skill table |
| Passive / Trait | Usually later unless the trait is the real multiplier engine. | Pending exact skill table |
Awakening
| Node | Recommendation | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| A1 / R1 | Wait for live breakpoint testing before calling it mandatory. | Pending |
| A2 / R2 | Only consider if the first verified breakpoint materially changes rotation or uptime. | Pending |
| A3 / R3 | Treat as spender-only until final duplicate value is confirmed. | Pending |
| A4+ | Whale-only territory. Never assume late breakpoints are efficient before live data exists. | Pending |
Best Arc
| Arc | Rank | Type | Substat | Why It Works | Best For | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Song of the Whale | S | Plasma | ATK 27.5% | ATK 27.5% is the first reason this Arc stands out. The effect summary points toward tempo, break pressure, or flexible field usage. | Endgame main build candidate | Community Table |
| Fluff of Fortitude | S | Plasma | ATK 27.5% | ATK 27.5% is the first reason this Arc stands out. The effect summary points toward tempo, break pressure, or flexible field usage. | Flexible alternative | Community Table |
| Raging Flames | S | Plasma | CRIT DMG 24% | CRIT DMG 24% is the first reason this Arc stands out. The effect summary points toward tempo, break pressure, or flexible field usage. | Budget / early progression | Community Table |
| Ready-Ready | S | Plasma | CRIT Rate 24% | CRIT Rate 24% is the first reason this Arc stands out. The effect summary points toward tempo, break pressure, or flexible field usage. | Budget / early progression | Community Table |
Modules / Cartridges
| Slot / Set | Recommendation | Goal | Best For | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Console | Character-specific console setup pending live verification | Hold the build framework in place without pretending the final best-in-slot is known | All versions of the build | Module database available; matching pending |
| Type II Module | Primary damage stat bias | Stable main-stat baseline | Main build foundation | Pending character-specific validation |
| Type III Module | Break / tempo bias | Faster utility delivery | Tempo control | Pending character-specific validation |
| Type IV Module | Flex slot based on what testing exposes as the missing stat line | Patch the build's weakest verified area instead of greedily overcapping one stat | Endgame optimization | Pending live stat targets |
| Cartridge Set | Street Boxer / Fireflies and the Forest | Keep a known set direction visible while exact set ownership and effects are still being tested | Progression and endgame comparison | Database available; set matching pending |
Best Teams
| Team Type | Members | Role Logic | Build Impact | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Recommended | Mint + Chiz + Haniel + Mint | Mint gets a safe launch shell with support, sustain, and a flex slot for pacing while numbers are still settling. | Stable first-pass build shell | Launch shell / needs testing |
| F2P | Mint + Adler + Haniel + Aurelia | Uses easier-access teammates so the build stays playable without premium roster depth. | Budget-friendly route | Budget theorycraft |
| Standard Progression | Mint + Baicang + Chiz + Haniel | Gives the page a realistic launch account shell tied to the current pool landscape. | Useful for players evaluating immediate roster fit | Launch shell / needs testing |
Rotation
1
Open with team setup
Let supports establish buffs and safety before Mint takes the field.
2
Cast core skill and begin on-field loop
The first committed damage window should line up with your highest-confidence multipliers.
3
Spend Ultimate or Arc trigger inside the best window
Do not separate the biggest tools from the strongest buff state unless testing proves otherwise.
4
Swap out before dead time
Reset the shell instead of overextending through weak cooldown periods.
Materials
| Upgrade Area | Material Type | Priority | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Character Level | Rising Hunter Guide | High if this is a core team slot | Known category |
| Skills | Skill materials | Spend only after the first confirmed priority row is online | Needs verification |
| Arc | Tri-Key | High if the Arc is truly your chosen lane | Needs verification |
| Modules | Module resources | Later than level, core skill, and first playable Arc | Pending character match |
| Awakening | Duplicates | Only if the breakpoint is verified | Pending |
| General Currency | Beetle Coin | Controlled spending across multiple upgrades | Known category |
F2P Build
| Slot | Best | F2P Alternative | Budget Logic |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arc | Song of the Whale | Raging Flames | Use an A-rank or easier-access candidate before spending around a signature assumption. |
| Stats | Charge Efficiency > Break Intensity > HP / DEF | ATK > one crit stat > stable substats | Accessible main stats matter more than chasing a perfect late-game profile too early. |
| Modules | Console pending • Fireflies / Street Boxer candidates | Use a cheap stat framework first and postpone exact console matching | Module and cartridge precision is the easiest place to overspend before data stabilizes. |
| Team | Mint + support + sustain + flex | Mint + Adler + Haniel + Aurelia | The F2P utility should answer what keeps Mint usable, not what imitates a whale account. |
| Materials | Full investment after your long-term team is confirmed | Level, key skill, workable Arc, then stop | Do not let a launch theorycraft build consume all premium resources before the roster settles. |

Version Notes and Build Confidence
Mint is currently marked as Public Build Shell. Treat the page as a build-first planning hub rather than a final spreadsheet.
Source confidence is Public Data Needs Live Test. The page is intentionally conservative where final live values are missing.
Do not chase duplicate awakenings, signature-only conclusions, or expensive module routes before live testing confirms they are worth the cost.

NTE Mint Build FAQ
What is the best NTE Mint build right now?
The current best NTE Mint build is a launch-candidate loadout, not a permanent solved build. Start with the recommended Arc lane, role-based stat priority, and a safe team shell, then wait for live testing to refine the final min-max route.
What is the best Arc for Mint?
The page prioritizes Plasma Arc candidates that match Mint's likely role, substats, and effect timing. Do not treat the top row as final best-in-slot until in-game testing confirms it.
Is Mint F2P friendly?
Mint has a naturally better F2P case because the character access path is friendlier than a limited-only target, but the page still recommends conservative material spending.
Should I upgrade Mint's skills immediately?
Upgrade only the first verified priority lane immediately. Early launch theorycraft is useful for planning, but rare skill materials should wait for confirmed scaling if your account is resource-limited.
