Introduction

Ash is a 6-star character in Arknights. Ash's class is Sniper. Faction: Team Rainbow.

On our Arknights tier list Ash is A tier, 66th of the 293 characters ranked, from where 9 current tier lists put Ash.

Is Ash good?

A 6-star Sniper from the Rainbow Six collab who opens every deployment by throwing a stun grenade, and her first deployment costs 3 less DP and starts with 20 SP. Assault Tactics fires the grenade again and unloads 31 rapid shots at 250% ATK against stunned enemies, while Breaching Rounds launches a shot that knocks enemies back and explodes, dealing 800% ATK if it hits a high-ground wall.

Heavy burst plus crowd control makes her one of the strongest Snipers, but she was a limited collab release.

Strengths

  • Stun on every deployment
  • Huge burst against stunned enemies
  • Breaching Rounds pushes and explodes
  • Cheap, fast first deployment

Weaknesses

  • Breaching Rounds only twice per deployment
  • Limited collab availability

Ash's full name is Eliza Cohen. Her birthday is December 24th, and she stands 170 cm tall. Ash is voiced by Patricia Summersett in English.

Background

This badge is hereby conferred upon the above named, whether this band of soldiers needs such recognition notwithstanding.MAR-X: "So that country also has a president?"

"Yes, I heard that their ruler is called this."

"Wait, wait a minute."

"You just said that Victoria has a king,

Leitanien has a queen, and Ursus has an emperor."

"But the leader of the Columbians is the president?"

"Yes...so, what's the problem?"

In front of the Thumbtack, the strange mercenary fell into deep thought.

Ever since the mercenary team named "Rainbow Squad" came to Rhodes Island, the female operator codenamed "Ash" has been asking all kinds of strange questions.

"Then, let me ask another question."

"You say."

"Do they have a city called New York?"

"Oh, you said Yorkshire? That's Victoria's city."

"That means Victoria has Yorkshire, but Columbia doesn't have New York?"

"Yeah."

The female operator fell silent again. She muttered something like "This is too weird".

Thumbtack remembered that last week in the cafeteria, Ash was surprised to see blue tomatoes and square potatoes.

Most operators found it hard to understand.

What kind of country do they come from?

"Speaking of which..."

Thumbtack decided to change the subject.

"On this week's off, the people in the engineering department will play a football match on the deck.

Miss Ash, do you want to watch?"

"What kind of sport is football?"

"Have you ever seen a football match? It's the one where each team sends eleven players to the field and kicks the ball into the other team's goal."

"Oh! That, I know that."

Instantly, Ash expression eased a lot.

Is this something reassuring?

Thumbtack was still confused.MAR-Y: Jacob Roland never thought much about it.

What it meant to be a Kazimierz competition knight of little renown.

To be able to find a job in Columbia.

Just how weird this job was.

Ironforge City, Southern District, in a small meeting room inside the Maylander Security and Defense Company’s office building.

He carefully wipes down his small shield and accompanying weapon.

Quietly awaiting the arrival of his "superior."

Jacob takes stock of the meeting room.

Five unique "professionals" sit around him.

The Sargonian to his side is showing off his muscles.

This brawny man, over two meters tall, boasts that he could smash through the walls with brute strength alone.

The Bolívarian soldier talking to him is assembling a crossbow, the head of each bolt conspicuously marked with different colors.

The Leithanian caster leaning against the wall fiddles with an Arts Unit, the device occasionally emitting electric noises.

Closest to the window are two tight-lipped Victorian soldiers.

One of them holds a sledgehammer with a head larger than his own.

Each of them looks like they've been through a hundred battles, endured countless trials and tribulations.

But what about himself? The toughest battle he ever endured...

was just a match in a Kazimierz arena.

Is he really qualified for this job?

Why would a Columbian recruit a group of warriors from all across the world?

Just as these thoughts run through his mind, someone pushes open the door.

A tall, red-haired lady wearing sunglasses walks in.

She has a small gun hanging from her waist, but she is not a Sankta.

She walks up to the podium, clearly in no hurry.

"Welcome to my squad."

"You can call me Ash."
