Seed Overview

Specialized as an Electric Attack agent, Seed is a Mecha Girl–style character whose playstyle centers on Overheat and a unique Partner System. She links to the teammate with the highest ATK. When the teammate launches an EX Special Attack, Seed gains ATK and Crit DMG buffs. In return, she restores that partner’s energy every second and amplifies their damage output, creating a potent feedback loop for sustained DPS. Seed’s combat flair includes riding a scooter into battle and unleashing her full mecha for devastating punches that consume Overheat.

Seed Best W-Engines

As an Electric Attack Agent who scales with ATK, Seed has several viable W-Engine options. Any W-Engine that boosts her CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, or ATK can complement her kit. However, her signature W-Engine stands out as the strongest choice, significantly outperforming all alternatives. To maximize her potential, securing her signature W-Engine is highly recommended.

Best Choice

Cordis Germina (S-Rank)

Base ATK: 713
Bonus Stat: CRIT Rate 24%
W-Engine Effect (R1): CRIT Rate is increased by 15%. When the equipper deals DMG with [Basic Attack] or [EX Special Attack], they gain 1 stack of a buff. Each stack increases the equipper’s Electric DMG by 12.5%, stacking up to 2 times and lasting 40s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately, and can only be triggered once per use of a skill. With 2 stacks, the equipper’s [Basic Attack] and [Ultimate] ignore 20% of enemy DEF.

S-Rank Alternatives
1st (Soldier 11’s signature)	Brimstone (S-Rank)	Base ATK: 684 Bonus Stat: ATK 30% W-Engine Effect (R1): Upon hitting an enemy with a Basic Attack, Dash Attack, or Dodge Counter, the equipper’s ATK increases by 3.5% for 8s, stacking up to 8 times. This effect can trigger once every 0.5s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
2nd (Harumasa’s signature)	Zanshin Herb Case (S-Rank)	Base ATK: 713 Bonus Stat: CRIT DMG 48% W-Engine Effect (R1): CRIT Rate increases by 10%. Dash Attack Electric DMG increases by 40%. When any squad member applies an Attribute Anomaly or Stuns an enemy, the equipper’s CRIT Rate increases by an additional 10% for 15s.
A-Rank Alternatives
Option 1 (BP Weapon)	Cannon Rotor (A-Rank)	Base ATK: 594 Bonus Stat: CRIT Rate 20% W-Engine Effect (R5): Increases ATK by 12%. Landing a critical hit on an enemy will inflict an additional 200% of ATK as DMG. This effect can trigger once every 6s.
Option 2 (V1.4 Event Weapon)	Marcato Desire (A-Rank)	Base ATK: 594 Bonus Stat: CRIT Rate 20% W-Engine Effect (R5): When an EX Special Attack or Chain Attack hits an enemy, the equipper’s ATK increases by 9.6% for 8s. While the target is under an Attribute Anomaly, this effect is increased by an additional 9.6%.
Option 3 (V1.1 Event Weapon)	Gilded Blossom (A-Rank)	Base ATK: 594 Bonus Stat: ATK 25% W-Engine Effect (R5): ATK increases by 9.6%, and DMG dealt by EX Special Attacks increases by 24%.
Option 4	Starlight Engine (A-Rank)	Base ATK: 594 Bonus Stat: ATK 25% W-Engine Effect (R5): Launching a Dodge Counter or Quick Assist increases the equipper’s ATK by 19.2% for 12s.

Seed Best Drive Disc Sets

The new Dawn’s Bloom Drive Disc Set in Version 2.2 is perfectly tailored for Seed, making it the top recommendation for her. If you haven’t farmed a complete set yet, you can use a 2-pc hybrid set. For the 2-piece set, choose from Thunder Metal, Woodpecker Electro, Branch & Blade Song, or Hormone Punk, depending on the stats Seed needs.

Best Choice
Dawn’s Bloom	Increases Basic Attack DMG by 15%. (2-piece Set) Increases [Basic Attack] DMG by 20%. When equipped by an [Attack-type character], using [EX Special Attack] or [Ultimate] will further increase [Basic Attack] DMG by 20% for 25 seconds; repeated triggers reset the duration. (4-piece Set)

Seed Best Teams

Seed’s core skill revolves around pairing with another Attack agent. Since Seed needs to spend most of the time on the field to deal damage, the ideal partner would be an off-field DPS. Orphie is the top choice for this role, while other viable—but more limited—options include Soldier 0 – Anby or Anton.
