It is unlocked after the Commander reaches Level 12.

Skill Training

Skill training bay.

Skill training interface.

Training a T-Doll to improving their T-Dolls skill effects and it's activation rate.
Requires Training Data that is acquired from data collection missions. It is also gained via random drop points. To start, tap on an empty slot and select the T-Doll you wish to train.

Research will be completed when the timer hits 00:00:00

The amount and level of training data required for T-Doll skill training varies based on the level of the skill.

Level	Training Data	Time
Lv. 1 → Lv. 2	100x	1:00:00
Lv. 2 → Lv. 3	200x	2:00:00
Lv. 3 → Lv. 4	300x	3:00:00
Lv. 4 → Lv. 5	120x	4:00:00
Lv. 5 → Lv. 6	200x	6:00:00
Lv. 6 → Lv. 7	300x	9:00:00
Lv. 7 → Lv. 8	400x	12:00:00
Lv. 8 → Lv. 9	200x	18:00:00
Lv. 9 → Lv. 10	300x	24:00:00

Unlike for T-Dolls, the amount of data used for skill training fairies depends on the kind of fairy being trained.

Level	Training Data (Strategy Fairy)	Training Data (Battle Fairy)	Time
Lv. 1 → Lv. 2	200x	200x	2:00:00
Lv. 2 → Lv. 3	400x	400x	6:00:00
Lv. 3 → Lv. 4	600x	600x	10:00:00
Lv. 4 → Lv. 5	240x	200x	14:00:00
Lv. 5 → Lv. 6	400x	400x	20:00:00
Lv. 6 → Lv. 7	600x	600x	26:00:00
Lv. 7 → Lv. 8	800x	200x	32:00:00
Lv. 8 → Lv. 9	400x	400x	40:00:00
Lv. 9 → Lv. 10	600x	600x	48:00:00

Now unlike both the T-dolls and Fairies, HOC's possess 3 skills which require training, not only do they cost a significant amount of data and the fact that all 3 skills must be trained individually, they also require batteries to do skill training. Skill's 2 and 3 have the same amount of data costs as well as the same skill training times, whereas Skill 1 costs double the data and time to complete their skill training.

Level	Training Data (Skill 1)	Training Data (Skill 2 and 3)	Time (Skill 1)	Time (Skill 2 and 3)	Total Costs
Lv. 1 → Lv. 2	200x + 50x	100x + 50x	2:00:00	1:00:00	400x + 150x
Lv. 2 → Lv. 3	400x + 50x	200x + 50x	4:00:00	2:00:00	800x + 150x
Lv. 3 → Lv. 4	600x + 50x	300x + 50x	6:00:00	3:00:00	1200x + 150x
Lv. 4 → Lv. 5	200x + 80x	100x + 80x	12:00:00	6:00:00	400x + 240x
Lv. 5 → Lv. 6	400x + 80x	200x + 80x	18:00:00	9:00:00	800x + 240x
Lv. 6 → Lv. 7	600x + 80x	300x + 80x	24:00:00	12:00:00	1200x + 240x
Lv. 7 → Lv. 8	200x + 100x	100x + 100x	30:00:00	15:00:00	400x + 300x
Lv. 8 → Lv. 9	400x + 100x	200x + 100x	36:00:00	18:00:00	800x + 300x
Lv. 9 → Lv. 10	600x + 100x	300x + 100x	48:00:00	24:00:00	1200x + 300x

Neural Upgrade

The Neural Upgrade system (colloquially called Mod or MOD, translated "Digi-mind upgrade" in CN) is unlocked when the player reaches Commander Level 60.

Certain T-Dolls may undergo neural upgrade, colloquially known as "modding". There are three stages that can be progressively unlocked, each of which unlocks additional benefits. To date, the bonuses granted by all neural upgrades have followed a specific pattern:

Level	Benefits
Mod 1	Increases level cap to 110. Increases star rarity, increases buff tile coverage and/or buff value, improves skill multiplier numbers, and increases base stats.
Mod 2	Increases level cap to 115. Unlocks a 2nd skill which must be trained separately and increases base stats.
Mod 3	Increases level cap to 120. Provides a 5 star equipment exclusive to that T-Doll, increases the affection cap for oathed T-Dolls from 150 to 200, unlocks a special skin for the T-Doll which replaces their default costume (Old CG can still be picked and will retain previous voice lines during sorties), and increases base stats.

Unlocking each new modification stage requires that the T-Doll meets certain level and affection requirements, and consumes cores and memory fragments according to the table below. After unlocking Mod 1, oathed T-Dolls gain experience at double the normal rate, including experience gained from auto-battles, combat simulations, or combat reports.

Level	Requirements	Item Cost (2-Star)	Item Cost (3-Star)	Item Cost (4-Star)	Item Cost (5-Star)
Mod 1	Level 100, 100 Affection, 5x Dummy Links	x200, x10	x200, x15	x200, x20	x200, x25, x2
Mod 2	Level 110, 100 Affection	x600, x20	x800, x30	x1000, x40	x1200, x50, x3
Mod 3	Level 115, 100 Affection	x1200, x30	x1600, x45	x2000, x60	x2400, x75, x5
