Yamato
Delivers charged attacks with finesse
Yamato uses precise strikes to decimate her rivals. However, such damaging attacks often will leave her exposed, so she needs to make every shot count.

Each phase lists what to buy since the previous one; the % on a card is how much of the build's score you lose without it. Lit pips under an ability are its upgrade tiers (green: new in this phase). Hover anything for details.
How builds are chosen
For each net worth, the optimiser searches items and ability upgrades that maximise the score: damage per second against the reference enemy × effective health^weight, averaged over short, standard and long fights, each both fresh and mid-match (long cooldowns still recovering from the previous fight). Each checkpoint starts from the previous one's items, so the builds read as a path.
Gun, spirit and hybrid differ only in where the offensive souls go. The fight assumptions (accuracy, distance, the target…) are on the Data page and adjustable in the simulator.

Boons come with net worth; gun DPS is every bullet hitting at close range, no headshots. Items and investment bonuses come on top (see builds).

Souls spent in a category (each owned item's full price) unlock the highest tier reached. The biggest step is at 4.8k; after it each tier adds less per soul (weapon: +17.5% per 1k souls up to it, +5% per 1k to the next), so piling souls into one category has diminishing returns. Builds and tier lists include it.
