Skill Changes

Favorite Item Skill 1: Maintain Fortification

Before: Triggered only at battle start (forces Skill 2) or when Centi's shield breaks (party HP recovery).

After: Activates on Skill 2 use. Affects all Iron Code allies: Elemental Advantage Attack Damage increased by 5%, stacking up to 10 times for 10 seconds.

Favorite Item Skill 2: Field Discussion

Before: Created a shield equal to 7% of Centi's final Max HP for 5 seconds.

After: Boosts ATK by 2.5% of Centi's ATK, stacking up to 10 times for 8 seconds.

Favorite Item Skill 3: Start Construction

Before: Max HP self-buff of 5% for 10 seconds.

After: Restores 25% of Centi's final Max HP as HP to all allies.

Player Impact

This rework transforms Centi from a niche shield bot into a more versatile support. The shift to Iron Code-specific buffs suggests she is being tuned for mono-element teams, especially in Boss content where the stacking Elemental Advantage and ATK boost can ramp up significantly. The new party-wide heal on Skill 3 also gives her sustain value that was missing before.

Commanders who previously used Centi for defensive purposes may need to re-evaluate her role. The new setup rewards aggressive play — keeping her Skill 2 active ensures the buffs stack quickly. Early testing suggests she now pairs well with other Iron Code units like Modernia or Scarlet.

Skill Reset Event

To help players adapt, Shift Up is running a limited Skill Reset Event:

• Duration: June 11, 11:00 – June 18, 04:59 (UTC+9)
• Compensation: 3x Skill Uninstaller and 20x Maintenance Kit Box II
• Note: All commanders receive the compensation regardless of whether they have Centi's Favorite Item.

Use this window to redistribute skill points if you had invested heavily in the old shield-centric build.

Final Takeaway

Centi's Favorite Item rework turns her into a strong offensive buffer for Iron Code teams, at the cost of dedicated shielding. If you use her in Boss fights or want to maximize Elemental Advantage, she is now a much more attractive option. Don’t forget to claim your free skill reset items before the event ends.
