Should you pull?
CONSIDER IT. Misato is a Burst I Supporter with layered healing: Skill 1 stacks Hit Rate plus heals the lowest-HP ally, Skill 2 buffs shield damage and heal potency, and her Burst, Command to Rest, heals continuously per second. Worth pulling if your team needs a flexible Burst I Supporter that also covers Hit Rate; if you already own a higher-tier healing Supporter or a stronger Burst I unit, she can wait since her total healing output isn't standout.
Review & Analysis
Misato is an Iron Supporter (Burst I, SMG) from Squad NERV, providing healing plus a team Hit Rate buff.
Skill 1, Shooting Manual, self-stacks Hit Rate +2.52% per stack (up to 3, 5 sec) after 60 normal attacks; after 120 normal attacks, it heals the ally with the lowest HP% for 4.02% of Max HP.
Skill 2, Recovery Assistant, only triggers while Shooting Manual is active: it boosts team-wide Shield damage by +75%; once Shooting Manual is fully stacked, it also grants a continuous +15.02% self healing-potency bonus.
Her Burst, Command to Rest, heals the whole team for 2.42% of final Max HP every second for 5 sec — steady but modest total healing.
Best as a secondary Supporter in Burst I teams that need extra Hit Rate and small, steady healing, rather than a primary heal for the hardest content.

Skill Investment Priority
Skill investment roadmap (Skill 1/Skill 2/Burst): 4/4/4 (playable) → 4/7/7 → 7/10/10 → 10/10/10 (final). Why: Burst and Skill 2 provide the most reliable healing value (Command to Rest heals per second, Recovery Assistant buffs shield damage and heal potency); Skill 1 only adds Hit Rate and a secondary heal, needing 60-120 normal attacks to build up, so it can wait.
Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths
- Layered healing: per-second heal from Burst, lowest-HP heal from Skill 1, and heal-potency buff from Skill 2.
- Skill 2 boosts team-wide Shield damage, useful in both PvE and PvP when breaking through defenses.
- Flexible Burst I unit, easy to slot into many different team compositions.
Weaknesses
- Total healing is modest compared to dedicated high-tier healing Supporters, better suited as a secondary role than a primary healer.
