Dolls and Favorite Items are two different spends
Collection Items (dolls) and Favorite Items (Treasures) share a menu. They do not share materials.
A doll locks to one Nikke the moment you assign it. You can replace an R doll with an SR doll of the same weapon type and keep part of the EXP. You cannot pull the doll off and move it to a sister unit.
The weapon skill on that doll matches the wearer's weapon. An SR shotgun doll raises that wearer's Normal Attack multiplier. It does not unlock a roster-wide shotgun aura. The old claim that you "complete a weapon category to turn the bonus on" is wrong.
Favorite Items exist on a short list of Nikkes. Unlock sits behind Campaign 6-4, an SR doll at Phase 15, and Bond 30. Bond 30 needs two Limit Breaks, so you need three copies of that Nikke. The questline grants Phase 1 for free. Phase 2 costs 50 of that Nikke's exclusive kits. Phase 3 costs 110 more. Daily Favorite Item Dispatch pays 3 kits if you send the matching Nikke. One Treasure takes about 54 days if you never miss dispatch.
Check the live roster in the in-game Favorite Item Encyclopedia, and read SHIFT UP's notices on the official NIKKE site.
SR 15 doll numbers
Doll | HP | ATK | DEF | DEF▲ | Damage Taken▼ | Cover Max HP▲ |
|---|
R 15 | 147,250 | 4,736 | 1,002 | 0% | 0% | 0% |
SR 0 | 94,000 | 3,029 | 638 | 30% | 10% | 12% |
SR 5 | 149,950 | 4,821 | 1,020 | 32% | 12% | 18% |
SR 15 | 301,800 | 9,688 | 2,058 | 37% | 17% | 30% |
R 15 beats SR 0 on raw stats and lacks the defensive skills. Convert R 15 into SR 5 when you get the purple doll. Stop most raid supports at SR 5. Push SR 15 on Treasure targets and on the few units that need the extra Damage Taken cut.
Weapon skills at SR 15
Weapon | SR 15 skill | Who spends it |
|---|
Sniper Rifle | Charge Damage Multiplier ▲ 9.46-9.47% | Red Hood, Alice, Helm Treasure, Snow White: Heavy Arms, Maxwell |
Shotgun | Normal Attack Damage Multiplier ▲ 9.46-9.47% | Privaty: Unkind Maid, Soda: Twinkling Bunny, Drake Treasure, Sugar Treasure, Anis: Sparkling Summer, Naga, Noir |
Rocket Launcher | Charge Damage Multiplier ▲ 9.46-9.47% | Scarlet: Black Shadow, Laplace Treasure, Emilia, A2, Centi Treasure |
Assault Rifle | Core Damage ▲ 17.04% (adds to the base 200%, so 217.04% on a core hit) | Snow White, Phantom Treasure. Moran Treasure wants the ATK and Damage Taken line more than the core skill. Base Privaty is AR, so her doll is AR, not shotgun. |
Machine Gun | Max Ammo ▲ 9.5% | Rapi: Red Hood and Modernia want the doll ATK/HP. The ammo line itself is small next to Overload ammo. Crown and Flora Treasure sit here too. |
SMG | Normal Attack Damage Multiplier ▲ 9.46-9.47% | Scarlet. Liter uses an SMG doll for campaign CP. Cinderella is the other SMG name worth a doll if she is on a raid team. |
Charge Damage Multiplier scales the base charge (250% or 350%). It does not multiply separate Charge Damage ▲ buffs. Alice at 350% base becomes about 367% with an early SR doll. That is why SR and RL dolls beat an AR core line that only fires when a core is open.
August 2026 raid order
January 2025 notes about Zwei, Nayuta, K, and Snow White no longer run this list. The July 23, 2026 Project Matis patch added Favorite Items for Phantom, Sugar, Rosanna, and Flora. The July 27 maintenance-free patch reworked Centi.
Priority | Units | Why you doll them |
|---|
1. Treasure cores | Moran Treasure, Privaty Treasure, Helm Treasure | Moran is the default B1 cooldown and Damage Taken buffer in raids. Privaty Treasure is the flex support and Water B3. Helm Treasure heals, generates Burst, and holds Water SR damage. |
2. New season | Flora Treasure, Sugar Treasure, Centi Treasure | Flora shields and feeds ATK. Sugar buffs Water and Iron shotgun teams. Centi's rework stacks Iron elemental damage and converts overflow heals. |
3. Charge carries | Red Hood, Alice, Scarlet: Black Shadow, Rapi: Red Hood, Snow White / Snow White: Heavy Arms | SR/RL dolls pay on every charge. Rapi: Red Hood scales off doll ATK even though her MG ammo skill is modest. |
4. Shotgun teams | Privaty: Unkind Maid, Soda: Twinkling Bunny, Drake Treasure, Tove Treasure | The SG multiplier hits every pellet. Tove Treasure is the B1 that makes those teams work. |
5. Fill | Phantom Treasure, Miranda Treasure, Zwei Treasure, Laplace Treasure | Water hole, crit teams, or Iron true-damage comps. Build after the first two rows. |
Skip Milk. Hold Exia, Frima, Diesel, Poli, Bay, Julia, and Rosanna until the rest of the account is done.
Base Privaty is an Assault Rifle. The 2025 line that told you to skip her is dead. Privaty Treasure is a top-three Favorite Item. Privaty: Unkind Maid is a different Nikke with a shotgun, and she wants an SG doll if she is your Electric shotgun carry.
Centi's old 1/10 raid grade is dead after July 27. Zwei's old 1/10 grade is also stale; Zwei Treasure is a usable B1 on some Electric comps. Moran is no longer "PVP only."
Treasure craft order
One Favorite Item quest can run at a time. Dispatch kits are per Nikke. Finish one Treasure before you start the next.
Order | Treasure | Weapon | Role |
|---|
1 | Moran | AR | Raid B1, campaign, Arena |
2 | Privaty | AR | Off-burst support and Water damage |
3 | Helm | SR | Heal, Burst gen, Water SR |
4 | Flora | MG | Shield, ATK buff, Electric sustain |
5 | Sugar | SG | Water/Iron shotgun buffer |
6 | Drake | SG | Shotgun damage and buffs |
7 | Tove | AR | Shotgun B1 |
8 | Centi | RL | Iron support after the July 27 kit |
9 | Miranda / Zwei / Phantom | SMG / SG / AR | Crit teams, Electric flex, Water hole |
10 | Laplace | RL | Iron burst once you own true-damage buffers |
Sakura does not belong on a Treasure list. The 2025 "Sakura Treasure T5" line mixed her in as a regular SR support.
Helm Treasure is a first unlock if she is Bond 30 and you lack Moran or Privaty copies. Drake Treasure is no longer the shotgun headline; Sugar and Privaty: Unkind Maid share that job.
How to farm dolls and kits
Clear Campaign 6-4 so the Favorite Item menu opens.
Research Tactics Academy lessons that unlock Special Dispatch (starts at 5-4, improves through 13-3).
Run Outpost Bulletin Board every day. Keep the Favorite Item kit mission on the Nikke you are building. You get 3 exclusive kits.
Clear every first-time Solo Raid stage when the monthly raid opens. First clears pay 6 random R dolls, 2 random SR dolls, 1 SR doll selector, and 30 random Favorite Item kits. Daily attempts add Maintenance Kit boxes.
Spend the SR selector on the weapon your current carry uses. Do not roll it for a category you are not building.
Buy Maintenance Kits in the Recycling Shop after you finish Curated Manufacturer Arms. Coordinated Operation weekends feed that shop.
Excess Favorite Item kits convert at 5:1 in Inventory → Material. Convert only after that Treasure is Phase 3.
Solo Raid is monthly, not weekly. The 2025 "5-6 weeks of Solo Raid for 160 kits" math treated raid as a weekly faucet. Dispatch is the 160-kit clock. Solo Raid is the doll and random-kit top-up.
If you need Bond 30 copies, pair the NIKKE banner budget with a Goddess of Victory NIKKE top-up. Gold Mileage from Special Recruit carries across banners.
F2P 90-day path
Days 1-30: Pick the raid carry you field. Equip an R doll and push it to Phase 15 with blue Maintenance Kits. Send Favorite Item Dispatch only if that carry has a Treasure and sits at Bond 30.
Days 31-60: Swap the R 15 doll to SR. You land on SR 5. Leave supports there. If the carry has a Treasure, keep dispatch on her and bank the 50 kits for Phase 2.
Days 61-90: Either finish that Treasure to Phase 3 (110 more kits) or start the next doll on your second raid team. One finished path beats three half-built dolls.
R 15 → SR 5 is the cheap road. SR 0 from a fresh purple doll wastes the super-success rate on R dolls. SR 15 is for Treasure and for the rare fight that demands the extra Damage Taken cut, such as a Mother Whale-style raid that forced SR 5 as a floor.
Whale path
Moran Treasure to Phase 3.
Privaty Treasure to Phase 3.
Helm Treasure to Phase 3.
Flora or Sugar, based on whether you run Electric sustain or Water/Iron shotgun.
SR 15 dolls on every raid carry you field: Rapi: Red Hood, Red Hood, Alice, Scarlet: Black Shadow, Snow White: Heavy Arms, Privaty: Unkind Maid, Soda: Twinkling Bunny.
SR 5 on the rest of each five-team Solo Raid roster.
Do not open four Season 6 Treasures at once. Phantom, Sugar, Rosanna, and Flora share the same 3-kit daily pipe.
Compare Mock Battle totals with real raid scores using the Mock Battle vs real raid guide. Mock rooms read 15-30% high. Rank targets sit in the Solo Raid Golden Frame guide. For current team names, use the April 2026 NIKKE tier list and the June 2026 patch notes.
How to test a doll before you dump kits
Record a Training Room or Mock Battle baseline on the same team.
Change only the doll on the carry.
Run five fights. Log total damage, Burst windows, and deaths.
For AR core tests, pick a boss that exposes a core. A no-core fight will hide the 17.04% line.
Treat a gain under 5% as noise. A charge or normal-attack doll on the right carry should clear that bar on a full 180-second raid.
Mistakes the 2025 guide got wrong
Treating dolls as a set bonus. The multiplier lives on the Nikke who holds the doll. Finish that doll. Then start the next one.
Mixing the 160-kit number with doll phases. Dolls use Maintenance Kits across 15 phases. Favorite Items use 160 exclusive kits across two paid phases.
Parking materials on base Privaty as a skip, or on Moran as PVP-only. Privaty Treasure and Moran Treasure are the two highest raid Treasures in 2026.
Listing Scarlet as an AR. Scarlet is SMG. Scarlet: Black Shadow is RL. Snow White is the AR core case.
Calling Solo Raid a weekly doll shop. It is a monthly first-clear plus daily kit boxes.
Building Treasures before Bond 30. Phase 15 on a unit you cannot unlock wastes the SR doll that another Treasure unit could have used.
FAQ
Do NIKKE Favorite Items increase raid damage?
Yes. An SR 15 doll adds a weapon skill and a large ATK/HP block. A Favorite Item then rewrites skills. Moran, Privaty, and Helm Treasures change raid teams. A shotgun or charge doll on a carry you field is the smaller, faster gain.
Which Favorite Item should I craft first?
Moran if you have the copies. Privaty second. Helm third. Flora and Sugar are the July 2026 pair: Flora for Electric sustain, Sugar if you run Water or Iron shotguns.
Are Collection dolls worth it for F2P?
Yes, on one carry. Take that doll R 15 → SR 5. Open a Treasure only after Bond 30. Dispatch 3 kits a day will finish one Treasure in about two months.
What changed in July 2026?
July 23 added Phantom, Sugar, Rosanna, and Flora to the Favorite Item list. July 27 reworked Centi into an Iron buffer with Stockpile heals. The January 2025 raid-tweak list is retired.
How much damage does a doll add?
The printed skill is 9.46-9.47% on charge or normal attacks, 17.04% on AR core hits, and 9.5% MG ammo. Charge and pellet dolls show up on the scoreboard. AR core needs a core. Treasure kits can dwarf those percentages because they change the kit.
Should whales spend differently from F2P?
Whales finish Moran, Privaty, and Helm, then doll every raid carry to SR 15. F2P finish one weapon on one carry and one Treasure if the copies exist. Both groups convert R 15 to SR 5.
Conclusion
Put the doll on the Nikke you field, then read the weapon skill on that doll. SR and RL charge lines and SG pellet lines move Solo Raid totals. AR core and MG ammo do less unless the kit lives on those shots. Moran, Privaty, and Helm Treasures are the August 2026 queue, with Flora and Sugar next. Farm dispatch every day, clear the monthly Solo Raid, and keep the SR selector on the carry you are building.
When you need copies or a Monthly Pass, use Goddess of Victory NIKKE gems on BitTopup. For pack math, see the Monthly Pass vs gem bundle guide.
