Command An Army Rapier — Parry Stats, Evolution & Tier
Command An Army Rapier: Update 2 parry unit — on-screen stats (205 HP, 19 damage), evolution to Rapier Knight at level 20, and why tier lists skip it for ranked.
The Command An Army Rapier is Update 2's signature new unit — a parry-capable melee fighter with on-screen stats of 205 HP, 19 damage, a 1.1-second attack interval, speed 23 and range 6. Its defining ability is the parry, and at level 20 it evolves into the Rapier Knight. Seen in footage · 2026-09-19

How to Get the Rapier
The Rapier comes from the summon pool — launch footage shows a creator buying a Super Luck Potion before pulling it, and stacking copies to combine them. There is no confirmed pity-specific price yet; treat it as a gacha pull with the summon odds on screen. Seen in footage · 2026-09-19

Confirmed Stats (on screen, September 19)
- HP 205 | Damage 19 | Attack interval 1.1s | Speed 23 | Range 6
- Parry: 20% — the stat readout shows 20%, and footage describes it as either reflecting 20% of damage back or taking 20% reduced damage; the exact mechanic is still being pinned down. Seen in footage · 2026-09-19
- Evolves at level 20 into the Rapier Knight — the upgrade is visible in the unit menu and explicitly requires the level-20 evolution step.
Tier Verdict
- The Rapier Knight ranks A tier in Update 2 lists — the parry is a real differentiator.
- The base Rapier, however, is explicitly not recommended for ranked: a dedicated Update 2 tier list says it "cannot recommend this character for ranked" at its base form, because its parry needs supporting context the base stats do not carry. Seen in footage · 2026-09-19
- "I don't think it's anything too crazy" was the launch-day verdict from the stream that showcased it — strong niche tool, not an automatic carry.
What We Have Not Verified Yet
Exact parry mechanic (reflect vs reduce), the Rapier Knight's upgraded stat block, and whether the Rapier can be summoned on a specific banner rather than the general pool — all blank until confirmed on screen. Inferred · 2026-09-22
