Chiz Complete Build Guide: City Tycoon Lv 18 Gives This Free S-Rank F2P Main DPS, 6 Eidolons Maxed, the Self-Sustaining Contemplative Cat

Key Answer: Chiz is the 1.0 City Tycoon S-rank story-gift character given free at Lv 18 — element Cosmos, Arc Gas, JP CV Konomi Kohara, the Pink Paws Bank lobby manager. The full free package: the character + 6 Eidolons + 5 copies of the Contemplative Cat signature Arc (reaching Tycoon Lv 45). Her signature Arc “Contemplative Cat” grants Cosmos DMG +2.5% per 100,000 Fons held (+25% at cap), making her perfectly self-sustaining. She is the only S-rank you can take to max Eidolons + max refinement at 0 spend, and you can clear Out-of-Bounds Abyss 1-10 with her completely free.

The Pink Paws Bank lobby manager — shy on the surface, but the strongest F2P Main DPS in practice, with her 6 maxed Eidolons given for free — Chiz is called by the whole community the “peak of NTE gift-giving,” “the savior of free-to-play players,” and “the strongest F2P Main DPS.” This article lays out her unlock route, skills, build, teams, and daily SOP all in one place.

1. Character Basics

Item	Details
Chinese Name	小吱
English Name	Chiz
Rarity	S-rank (story / system gift)
Element	Cosmos
Weapon Type (Arc)	Gas
Role	Main DPS / Cosmos DPS (the strongest F2P Main DPS)
Chinese CV	Ze Ling
Japanese CV	Konomi Kohara
English VA	Alice Himora
Background	”Lobby Manager” at the Pink Paws Bank New Herland District headquarters, affiliated with the Dvořák Family. She looks like a timid, shy intern but is in fact the bank’s most reliable administrator. Deeply tied into the “Pink Paws Heist” system, she is the key NPC for that game mode.

2. ⭐ How to Unlock (completely free!)

Core Requirement: City Tycoon Lv 18

• Hard gate: earn a cumulative 5 million Fons (Fons you spend still counts)
• F2P timeline: paired with the daily City Vitality + the weekly Pink Paws Heist, about 1-2 weeks (some CN guides cite 2-3 weeks as a safe estimate)

Full Free Package (going to Tycoon Lv 45)

Tycoon Level	Unlock
Lv 18	Chiz herself
Lv 21, 27, 35, 39, 43	5 copies of the Contemplative Cat (T5 fully refined)
Lv 24, 30, 33, 37, 41, 45	6 Eidolon copies (A1-A6 fully maxed)

⭐ The only S-rank you can take to max Eidolons + max refinement at 0 spend (reaching Tycoon Lv 45).

For the detailed route to push Tycoon level, see the City Tycoon Complete Guide.

3. Skill Set

Skill	Name	Mechanic
Basic Attack	Exiled Swordplay	Fights with a short staff + bubble-tea cup, accumulating the “Grain” resource
Shift (E)	Pink Paws Priority Principe	The core output button — shifts in, spends Grain to deal extra additional damage; hold to keep spinning and keep consuming Grain
Ultimate (Q)	Zero-Sum Game	Opens the “Grain Market” phase (a stock-market candlestick mechanic); using it temporarily resets Grain to 15,000, and can extend the E skill
Assist	Temporary Entry	Off-field assist, lowest priority
Passive	—	More Grain → higher Cosmos additional damage (the passive + signature Arc both stack the “more money, more power” concept)

Core Combo (SOP)

Enter → Q to open the Grain Market → press E while the candle is rising, basic attack / dodge while it falls
→ Grain Market ends → loop basic attack + E → hold E for a burst whenever you get the chance

Standard rotation: Q → E + 2 basic attacks × 3 times.

Chiz should be the last to enter the team, with the Esper Cycle ready to trigger.

4. Eidolons (Awakenings) — City Tycoon Gives All 6!

Eidolon	Translation	Effect
A1	Sun, Sun… Talk to Me!	Grain storage cap +10%
A2	Fireworks in the Silence	Opens the passive Grain-generation mechanic
A3	If There Were No Rain	Grain price-rise chance +50% — the key game-changer, T0.5→T0
A4	To Rice Balls, Bandages, Fons	Grain gain efficiency +20%
A5	Blank Diary Page	Fills the Grain cap to max the moment you enter combat — highly recommended priority
A6	The Thirty-Third Day	Grain’s additional Cosmos damage +15%

Community-Recommended Unlock Order

5 → 3 → 6 → 1 (biggest game-changers)

Either way, once your City Tycoon progress is there you get them all, so there’s no need to worry about Eidolons.

5. Best Build

Alternative Arcs (early-game transition)

Stat Priority

Slot	Priority

6. ⭐ The 5-Minute Daily Fons-Extraction SOP

#	Action
1	Get Chiz to Lv 20+ (just enough to kill mobs)
2	Enter the lowest-difficulty Houdini’s Magic Stage instance
3	Put Chiz on field and hold the basic attack → it auto-converts into Fons
4	Run 4-5 times, and once you’ve capped out, just exit the instance (it doesn’t cost an entry attempt!)
5	Daily cap: 40,000 Fons, about a 5-minute SOP

It’s one of the core income sources in the 15-minute daily SOP, and combined with City Vitality (1 point = 1,000 Fons, daily cap 360-700 points) it can net you hundreds of thousands of Fons a day.

7. Recommended Teams

1. Strongest F2P Lineup ⭐

Chiz + Esper Zero (protagonist) + Haniel + Mint

An all-free S/A combo with rock-solid additional damage

2. Charged Energy Meta Team

Chiz + Hathor + Jiuyuan + Haniel / Sakiri

Triggers the “Charged” reaction to fully charge up Ultimate energy

3. Cosmos Team

Chiz + Esper Zero + Sakiri + Fadia

Cosmos + crowd control + support

4. Fons-Farming Daily Team

Chiz + any 3 characters

Pure City Tycoon daily farming — the key is Chiz holding the basic attack

Core Team-Building Logic

Chiz outputs on field while teammates handle triggering the Esper Cycle / Charged, letting the Q Ultimate fire at maximum frequency.

8. Investment Priority

Since she comes with 6 Eidolons + 5 signature Arc copies, it’s completely brainless:

1. Ascend the character to Lv 80 (give main-story resources first)
2. Skill (Anima) upgrade order: E branch skill ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ → Q Ultimate ⭐⭐⭐⭐ → Basic Attack ⭐⭐⭐⭐ → Assist ⭐⭐
3. Max out the Contemplative Cat signature Arc (you’re given 5 copies — an easy T5 at 0 spend)
4. Farm out the Lost Radiance 4-piece set
5. Console modules: load up on Type III to get the Console Bonus +10% Cosmos

9. Pull / No-Pull Advice

Absolutely No Need to Pull ✅

• The whole package is given by City Tycoon
• Chiz (free) + Contemplative Cat (free) + 6 maxed Eidolons (free) = the strongest F2P combo, the No.1 must-build at launch
• The only requirement: reach Tycoon Lv 18 (earn a cumulative 5 million Fons, achievable in 1-2 weeks)
• Your gacha Crystals can all be saved for future limited characters

10. Community Memes / Reception

• “The strongest F2P Main DPS,” “the peak of NTE gift-giving,” “the savior of free-to-play players”
• “The more money you have, the stronger she is” — the signature Arc + passive double “flex your wealth” mechanic is hilarious, and the bank-teller character design maps perfectly
• “6 maxed Eidolons given for free” — for other S-ranks, even 6 Eidolons would cost tens of thousands of Crystals / thousands of dollars
• “The key to T0.5 → T0 is the A3 Eidolon,” “A5 filling the Grain cap on entry is a godly change”
• “The Grain Market rises and falls like a stock,” “a candlestick-trading Main DPS” — top-tier mechanical fun
• Power assessment: although she was once “one of the hardest characters to play,” she was buffed by the devs during open beta, and she’s now a backbone among F2P Main DPS — rock-solid, off-the-charts additional damage, and she can even beat limited characters in the early game
• You can clear Out-of-Bounds (Abyss) 1-10 with all stars using her, completely free
