Nexon would like to be incredibly sure players of the newest Blue Archive story update know exactly which squad it will be focusing on, and so they have named it Vol. 4, Rabbit of Caerbannog Chapter 2, We Were RABBITs! You can enjoy the continuing adventures of the team, and also recruit an incredibly powerful new student.
Just when the RABBIT Squad thought they put all their troubles behind them after the events of Rabbit of Caerbannong Chapter 1, a shadow from their past rears its ugly head. With the help of Sensei and students from across the academies, the SRT Academy students will need to tackle this familiar foe and find peace once more.
To help their classmates, SRT students Miyako and Saki will be returning for Pick-Up, along with a brand new recruit. The Red Winter Federal Academy motormouth with a megaphone, Minori, is wading into battle, complete with a rather ferocious EX Skill. She deals sizeable damage to enemies in a round-shaped area, but if you spend two more Cost, the EX Skill resource, the damage increase 35%, per cost, which is insane.
In order to compensate, her other skills should be a bit nerfed, but it seems Nexon disagreed. Minoris’ Normal Skill deals up to 147% of attack as damage to a round-shaped area every 25 seconds, making her an excellent crowd killer. As an Explosive character herself, her Sub-Skill increases ally Explosion Effectiveness by up to 30.2%. Overall, Minori is easily a must-have for any Explosive-heavy squad.
To celebrate the new story, players can take part in a host of new events. Balancing Schale's Books with the General Student Council packs a bunch of missions and commissions rewarding event tokens, which can be exchanged for power items or new cosmetics into December 26th. There is even an Event Prize Exchange House to grab some rare currency to power up students.
Finally, until January 9th you can gran yourself Minori’s Woodworking Workbench for your Cafe, as well as other pleasant rewards during the 3 Days/Week Workplace Improvement Missions. Doing simple things such as playing through the story and defeating enemies will even net you ten Recruitment Tickets.
