Gunparade March（PlayStation）
🛠️ Equipment, Shikon-gou, and Developing Abilities
The keys to improving combat strength are managing equipment such as weapons and Shikon-gou and developing the protagonist's abilities. Choose equipment suited to your fighting style while balancing weight and mobility. Develop both basic stats through daily training and combat-related skills to grow steadily stronger.
Gunparade March — what should I check first in Equipment, Shikon-gou, and Character Development?
More powerful weapons, shields, Wardresses, and other equipment tend to be heavier and reduce the number of actions available in combat. Whether to prioritize firepower or mobility depends on your role as scout or pilot and on your fighting style. Review equipment for every deployment and keep consumables such as ammunition stocked. Avoid becoming immobile under heavy equipment and find a setup you can manage comfortably.

Shikon-gou are the game's signature humanoid tanks and the main fighting vehicles pilots use against the Genjuu. Hits damage them, and destruction can endanger the pilot's life, so maintenance and condition management are essential. If you want to become a pilot, develop vehicle-related skills and an awareness of maintenance. Preparing a Wardress as well, even while the vehicle is intact, improves survival.
- ▸ Shikon-gou are pilot-operated humanoid tanks that provide the main combat strength

Basic stats such as athletic ability, stamina, and morale form the foundation of combat and can be improved through daily training. Inviting a companion with "Want to train together?" is a known way to train more efficiently. Various skills also improve combat or work, and some cannot be learned through ordinary training. Identify the abilities your role requires and develop them according to a plan.
