Role 3Reported role
Shell-reorder role
State control
reorderround planning
Use reorder or swap effects when the visible shell mix makes a later turn more important than immediate damage.
Team combo: Keep a recovery item available if the new order is still uncertain.
Ranking note: The calculator shows only the ratio from counts you enter; it cannot reveal hidden order.
Beginner ranking
Rank easy, safe, low-investment options for first-session players.
Farming ranking
Rank options by repeatable grind speed, income, survivability, or mission value.
Endgame ranking
Rank the best late-game builds after unlock cost and skill ceiling are clear.
Team combo notes
Best picks need the right partners
For character, unit, or squad games, rank picks with synergy in mind instead of treating every unit as a solo carry.
Build guide
Check team roles
Use guides for carry, support, control, farming, and bossing roles once the important units or builds are known.
