Deploy UR Audrey Burne as a central formation buffer when building squads for difficult PvE stages like the Generation Tower in SD Gundam G Generation ETERNAL. Her area-of-effect (AoE) Range Boost skill increases the attack reach of surrounding allies, allowing your mobile suits to strike high-threat enemies from outside their retaliatory firing zones.
How AoE Range Boost Affects Tactical Battles
Standard grid combat forces units to trade hits whenever an attacker enters a defender's counterattack radius. Bosses and elite enemies in the Generation Tower frequently feature wide retribution cones and punishing counterattack damage that wear down squads across multi-wave battles.
Audrey’s AoE Range Boost alters these damage trades by adding attack range to units positioned within her support zone:
- Bypassing Counterattacks: Increasing a four-range weapon to five range lets mobile suits fire without triggering enemy reaction skills or return fire.
- Overcoming Obstacles: Additional range allows back-row units to fire over friendly units and restrictive terrain choke points instead of wasting turns repositioning.
- Concentrating Firepower: Expanding reach enables multiple suits to target the same boss from different safe tiles, focusing down priority targets within tight stage turn limits.
| Tactical Demand | Audrey Support Function | Practical Combat Result |
|---|---|---|
| Avoid Boss Counters | Extends allied weapon ranges by one tile | Strike from outside lethal enemy retaliation range |
| Choke Point Stalls | Allows second-rank firing over frontlines | Maintains damage pressure without blocking pathways |
| Turn Limits | Reduces movement required to acquire targets | Saves action phases otherwise spent advancing |
| Squad Attrition | Eliminates unnecessary chip damage | Conserves unit HP across extended gauntlet floors |
Formation and Unit Synergies
Audrey must maintain formation with your offensive core to keep her Range Boost active. Scattering your team breaks her support perimeter and immediately strips your attackers of their range advantage.
Pair Audrey with the following squad roles:
- Long-Range Snipers and Artillery: Mobile suits with dedicated long-distance cannons or missile racks gain the greatest safety margin, extending their base range beyond any standard retaliation range.
- Mid-Range Multi-Lock Attackers: Units with multi-target weapon profiles expand their target cones, catching clustered enemy escorts without stepping into front-line danger.
- Frontline Defensive Anchors: Position a high-durability guard unit on the forward perimeter to intercept direct assaults and shield Audrey from advancing melee threats.
- Mobile Skirmishers: Fast hit-and-run units can step into Audrey's perimeter, deliver an extended-range shot to finish a weakened target, and retreat behind the defensive line.
Advance across the map as a cohesive block. Keep Audrey positioned directly behind your primary shooters so her buff envelopes them at the start of each combat phase.
Pull Value and Account Recommendations
Because Audrey is a pure support unit, her value depends directly on the offensive strength of your existing roster. She enables damage dealers to attack safely, but she cannot clear stages without built attackers to capitalize on the extra reach.
| Account Status | Banner Priority | Primary Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Ranged-Heavy Roster | Core Priority | Maximizes weapon reach and eliminates counter damage |
| Established Roster | High Priority | Solves high-difficulty positioning and turn-limit issues |
| New Account | Situational | Prioritize securing 1–2 primary offensive carry units first |
| Melee-Heavy Squad | Low Priority | Close-quarters attackers gain negligible utility from range boosts |
If your squad already relies on invested ranged attackers, pull for Audrey and direct your upgrade resources into her survivability and support skills so she can anchor your Generation Tower lineup. If your squad relies primarily on close-combat units, bypass her banner in favor of dedicated frontline damage dealers.

Good guide for SD Gundam G Generation ETERNAL players. The strategy part was useful.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
