Dive into the thrilling world of *Scarlet Girls*, an innovative Idle RPG that introduces players to a unique all-girl squad of technologically enhanced mecha waifus. Set in the 119th year of the Old Euro Calendar, the game's backdrop is a post-apocalyptic Earth, where mutated animals and powerful beings have pushed humanity to the brink of extinction. As one of humanity's last hopes, your mission is to recruit and train these mecha girls, known as "Stellaris," to combat the menacing catastromechs and restore peace. This beginner's guide will illuminate the core game mechanics and game modes that will enhance your account's power and progression. Let's get started!
Understanding the Combat Mechanics of Scarlet Girls
The heart of *Scarlet Girls* lies in its Idle-based combat system, designed for players who prefer a more relaxed gaming experience without the need for manual battle control. The game operates on a turn-based system where the sequence of actions is determined by each character's Speed stat. A round concludes once all allies and enemies have taken their turns. You can deploy up to five characters in battle, and the game offers a convenient "Quick Dispatch" feature that automatically arranges your team based on the strongest characters available. Once your team is set, you can sit back and enjoy the visually stunning animations that accompany each Stellaris's special abilities.
In *Scarlet Girls*, your Stellaris characters automatically utilize their active and passive abilities during combat, each with a cooldown period measured in turns. The key to success lies in crafting synergistic squads that maximize the strengths of your mecha girls. Although the battles occur in real-time, player intervention is minimal, emphasizing the importance of strategic team composition and character power.

Each Stellaris is categorized into one of four classes, each with distinct roles and utilities:
- Paladins – Boast the highest armor stats, acting as frontline defenders to absorb enemy attacks and protect their teammates.
- Support – Equipped with healing and supportive abilities, these Stellaris are crucial for maintaining team health from the backline.
- Devastator – Masters of heavy firepower, these Stellaris are designed to unleash devastating energy damage on foes.
- Assaulter – Skilled in close combat with bladed weapons, these Stellaris excel at dealing physical damage to dismantle and defeat enemies.
Echo – The Gacha System of Scarlet Girls
Recruitment of Stellaris is facilitated through the game's gacha system, known as "Echo." Stellaris come in various rarities: R, SR, SSR, and SSR+, with higher rarities boasting superior base stats and more potent abilities. At the global launch, the "Normal Echo" banner is available, allowing players to summon R to SSR Stellaris using Echo tickets or Diamonds. An SSR character is guaranteed within 40 summons, and each summon also earns you 20 echo points. Accumulating 2000 points lets you summon a random SSR character from one of the four elemental banners, excluding Nebula. You can track your progress on the right side of the Echo system.
The probabilities of recruiting different rarities of Stellaris are as follows:
- R Stellaris – 19.979% chance per individual R character
- SR Stellaris – 2.667% chance per individual SR character
- SSR Stellaris – 0.133% chance per individual SSR character
- SSR+ Stellaris – 0.010% chance per individual SSR+ character
