Is it just me or is the plug mission absolutely awful?
You get maybe three drops, and then you have to hope for the element to be the one you need, plus there's also like sixty different chips in the pool to begin with? oof
edit: you also need 20+ of the lower rarity ones, so yikes

Facet Folia. Slash rave is OK too. However, you need to identify what targets you're dealing with first. If you see El-Ardas, you should run like hell at the start, and wait for an opportune time to smack them. If you see Blade-dingals or Kaiserbelgers (standing mech, dog mech respectively) and they aren't in your immediate attacking range, you should also run for it, because in many cases, they can mow you down in one attack (mines can oneshot you, blade rush will just delete you since all the hits happen in a single instant). For everything else, you can just do the usual rush in, and blow them up with PAs deal. All the cells in nightmare tower are static, so if you access the same cell, you always get the same enemies.
Also, unlike regular tower, feel free to be patient and take your time. You have a longer time limit, and it's not unheard of to take 1-2 minutes per floor. The people who are blowing up entire stages in under a minute are generally the ones with very specific chips and an armory of Arion/Aculd/Aletia weapons with max cost down to allow for 108/115 Cost setups, and also units tailored towards max element.
Yup, I agree, the overall drop count is terrible. But, it's a long term thing, so it's not all that bad. It IS boring though having to farm the 5 stm mission for rank 4 plugs.

Remove nox from your setup he is not good with no dark chips.
Parasli is dark, so it's a +80% bonus; more than I'd be getting compared to other chips at the time. Using him for the +1 reward in tower, anyway

One decisive thing i learned today: if you have both the target bonus damage element, and an element that is heavily resisted, you'll get bent over and torn a new one if a target has both and your resisted value is higher.
There is that too, but it's pretty unrealistic to expect the average player to have that or have a friend who has that. (For reference: The Saika chip is a 13* drop/tower ranking reward which is insanely powerful when used in the tower, but it scales across 30 ability levels from ~200-1000%, so you would need to find at least 15 of them before it's any good)
