Mobile Suit Gundam U.C. ENGAGE

U.C. ENGAGE: MS Engage is worth up to 250 levels, and the group decides how many

Every MS Engage rank adds levels straight onto a mobile suit's stats. E1 alone adds up to 100, and E31 up to 250, but a suit's Engage group sets the number, and it ranges from +25 to +250.

In Mobile Suit Gundam U.C. ENGAGE, the first MS Engage rank adds up to 100 levels to a mobile suit's HP, ATK and DEF, and the top rank, E31, adds up to 250. The whole climb from Lv.1 to the Lv.271 cap is 270 levels, so for the best-placed suits E1 alone is worth 37% of it.

How Engage adds levels

A suit's HP, ATK and DEF each rise by a fixed amount per level. Engage does not add a percentage. It adds levels: a suit at Lv.271 with an Engage boost of +100 has the stats of a Lv.271 suit plus 100 more levels of growth, on the same per-level line it has been climbing all along. The roster's listed stats are Lv.100 values, so a suit's real ceiling is far above what its roster card shows.

Here is the suit with the highest fully engaged ATK at the level cap:

<thead><tr><th>Nightingale</th><th>ATK</th><th>vs Lv.271</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Lv.100 (the roster value)</td><td>1,728</td><td>&mdash;</td></tr><tr><td>Lv.271</td><td>4,115</td><td>&mdash;</td></tr><tr><td>Lv.271, E1</td><td>5,371</td><td>+31%</td></tr><tr><td>Lv.271, E31</td><td>7,465</td><td>+81%</td></tr></tbody>

Levelling Nightingale from Lv.100 to Lv.271 raises its ATK by 138%. On top of that, E1 adds 90 levels, another 31% over its capped value. E31 adds 240 levels, or 81%. HP and DEF grow the same way, because every stat line uses the same effective level.

The group decides the gain

209 of the 426 mobile suits have an Engage ladder, and each belongs to one of 11 Engage groups. The group, not the suit, sets how many levels each rank adds:

<thead><tr><th>Engage group</th><th>Mobile suits</th><th>E1 adds</th><th>E31 adds</th><th>Sub skills at E31</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><th>Engage group 1</th><td>16</td><td>+100</td><td>+250</td><td>25</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 2</th><td>30</td><td>+90</td><td>+240</td><td>24</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 3</th><td>42</td><td>+85</td><td>+220</td><td>22</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 4</th><td>34</td><td>+80</td><td>+200</td><td>20</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 5</th><td>31</td><td>+70</td><td>+175</td><td>16</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 6</th><td>7</td><td>+60</td><td>+150</td><td>15</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 7</th><td>22</td><td>+50</td><td>+125</td><td>12</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 8</th><td>20</td><td>+40</td><td>+100</td><td>10</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 9</th><td>2</td><td>+30</td><td>+75</td><td>7</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 10</th><td>4</td><td>+20</td><td>+50</td><td>5</td></tr><tr><th>Engage group 12</th><td>1</td><td>+10</td><td>+25</td><td>2</td></tr></tbody>

Every group pays the same 6,300 material to reach E31. A top-group suit turns that into +250 levels, and a bottom-group suit into +25.

That makes the group the first thing to check before committing material. The cost is flat and the return is not, so the same material buys a top-group suit many times the levels it buys a bottom-group one. E1 is the one rank the table lists with no material cost, and it already delivers 10 to 100 levels depending on the group. Past E1, spend where the group column is highest.

Higher groups also carry more sub skills at the top rank, as the last column shows, so the gap between groups is wider than the stat numbers alone suggest.

What Engage does not cover

Engage is one layer of several. The stat calculator covers level and Engage. Rank-ups and limit breaks add fixed percentages, grades add flat stats per role and rarity, and modules carry their own effects. Each of those is a separate layer with its own page, and none of them changes how many levels an Engage rank adds.

Every group's rank-by-rank boost, material and members are on the MS Engage page. The percentage layers are on rank-up and limit break. To try any suit at any level and Engage rank, use the stat calculator.
