Aniimo Team Comparison: A One-Upgrade Worksheet

How do you compare one Aniimo upgrade without guessing a tier?

Choose one problem and one proposed change, then write down the conditions that must stay fixed. This page is a worksheet for a decision you can check, not another overall tier list. The role shortlist identifies candidates when you have not yet chosen a function.

Field	What to record
Goal	One observable issue in one named activity
Current option / candidate	Creature and exact form
Conditions held fixed	Team, target, level, equipment and game version
Published difference	Same-field attributes or explicit skill conditions
Observation	What actually happened; leave blank before a test
Resource trade-off	Costs, duration and recovery restrictions
Decision	Keep, investigate, or defer; explain why

Use private notes for account-specific details. A proposed test is not evidence that it was completed.

What does a filled BREAK comparison look like?

Comparing Geodeback Basic with Blazen Basic illustrates why a larger total is not the whole decision. Their own sourced references provide the following fields; the observations column is intentionally not filled with invented results.

Field	Geodeback Basic	Blazen Basic
Published total / BREAK	486 / 102	530 / 104
Relevant mechanic	Earth Affinity during Tunneling	Power Sustain / Overcharged
Condition to check	Underground state and sufficient stamina	Six critical hits from skills
Resource or vulnerability	Tunnel drains stamina; Pound can launch it	Six-second state; no UP gain
Observed BREAK performance	Not measured here	Not measured here

The attribute differences are 44 in total and 2 in BREAK. Neither is a measured damage gain. A useful next observation is whether the relevant state is active during the window you care about. If you cannot reproduce that condition, a permanent-buff estimate would misdescribe the comparison.

How do you use the worksheet for a healing problem?

For Bulbly, write down recipient element, position and whether the beam is channeled. A teammate not meeting the published target condition is a different problem from an eligible teammate who receives no effect. Keep the player-controlled cast separate from the retreat clone.

For a contrasting Support choice, Cozite supplies a resistance debuff and smoke targeting effect, not a documented heal. Replacing one with the other solely because both say Support would change the function being tested. First decide which function is actually missing.

When should you defer the decision?

Defer a claim of superiority when you cannot keep the activity or form comparable, do not know the acquisition cost, or have not observed the relevant result. You can still use a creature you enjoy; the uncertainty only limits what this page can prove about an upgrade.

For reported rankings elsewhere, check whether their tested activity matches yours and whether their evidence explains a different result. Do not average incompatible letter grades. Our verification notes explain the source-versus-observation distinction. An unfilled test field is more useful than a fabricated best-build answer.

What is the source and review date?

The filled example draws on the official Geodeback Basic entry and official Blazen Basic entry, checked October 27, 2026. The arithmetic is transparent; no combat test or upgrade-cost measurement is claimed. The diagram is original editorial explanation.
