Understand what a trainee adds to your team

Learn the confirmed trainee and scouting systems, then compare the stats, skills, costs, and requirements visible in your current Uma Tower Defense session.

Reviewed · Independent fan guide

Trainees form your defense, specific Umas can be scouted, and Umas have unique skills. Use current in-game descriptions to compare candidates; a verified current roster and numerical unit rankings are not available here.

What the developer confirms

The current game description asks players to gather trainees to defend Tracen, scout specific Umas, and use their unique skills. It also describes items that boost scout stats and retired Umas that inspire scouts. Those are confirmed system descriptions. Individual names, rarity labels, skill values, and acquisition prices need their own current evidence.

Make a useful trainee record

When inspecting a trainee in the current game, record its exact name, displayed acquisition requirements, damage, attack interval, and skill wording where those fields are available. Keep the unit's current upgrade or item state alongside those values. Two screenshots with different upgrades may describe the same trainee under different conditions and should not be treated as a fair comparison.

Match the skill to a task

Read whether an effect depends on a trigger, target type, duration, or other condition. If the wording mentions a restriction, preserve it in your comparison. A basic DPS value is useful for steady attacks under matching assumptions; it does not automatically include area coverage, timed effects, or support value. Copy the squad planner lineup into your own notes and add the relevant skill conditions beside each trainee.

Before following a named-unit recommendation

Confirm the recommendation applies to the current place ID, 83211477728468. Then compare its date and displayed unit information with your session. Older same-name guides are useful leads for research, but they do not establish that a unit or ranking carried into this experience.

QUICK ANSWERS

Before your next run

Is there a verified full trainee list?

No current complete roster has been established for this site. This page explains the confirmed system and how to compare the trainees you can inspect.

Are all trainees free to obtain?

The developer says all trainees and items can be obtained without real-world payment or luck dependency.

Can a lower-DPS trainee still be useful?

Potentially, if its displayed skill or coverage solves a problem the higher-DPS option does not. Inspect the actual effect and conditions.

Where can I compare my trainees?

Use the manual tier comparison, DPS calculator, and squad planner with current values you enter yourself.
