DORO*C

DORO*C is a limited collaboration Partner in Arcaea, added as part of the first Arcaea x HARDCORE TANO*C collaboration.
She can be obtained by purchasing her signature song SAIKYO STRONGER and playing her event map, which is available from March 8th to March 29th, 2024.

Note that to awaken DORO*C, KYOREN ROMANCE must be purchased to access the map containing the necessary TANO*C Cores.
=== Skill ===
DORO*C's skill uses a special Recollection Gauge that measures the highest possible grade at song completion based on player performance, i.e. the grade that would be achieved if all note judgements from that point on are PURE.
Rather than a numerical Rate indicator, the indicator gives the highest possible grade at that point (EX+, EX, AA, A, B, C, or D).
The Gauge is divided into six sections, one for each possible grade (with EX+/EX occupying one section).
The Gauge will not increase for PURE notes, and will decrease for FAR/LOST notes (with LOSTs causing double the decrease as FARs).
Achieving a Track Complete requires a final grade of AA or above (i.e. a minimum score of 9,500,000), or a Full Recall with any grade.
A final grade of A or lower without a Full Recall will result in a Track Lost.
Despite being a Balance type partner, DORO*C gives a green (easy) clear upon Track Complete.
DORO*C's Awkened skill uses a gauge similar to her unawakened skill, but causes Track Lost when it goes below the minimum. The minimum depends on your highest grade for that chart (not your highest score), so:
* If your highest grade is EX+, the Track Lost score is 9,900,000.
* If your highest grade is EX, the Track Lost score is 9,800,000.
* If your highest grade is AA or lower, or the chart is unplayed, the Track Lost score is 9,500,000.
Her Awakened skill still gives a green (easy) clear upon Track Complete.
Her skill will not trigger the Beyond Challenge in World Mode's Lost Chapter: Beyond, meaning all plays will be treated as Track Lost, with penalties to Performance, and no Performance bonuses for maps that have a hidden bonus (e.g. L-6, L-14).
=== Notes ===
DORO*C's stats emphasise FRAG, but all of her stats are below average even at level 20.
With the exception of Hikari (Zero), DORO*C has the second lowest maximum stat sum out of any partner, only slightly above that of Nami, making her impractical for fragment farming or World Mode progression.
However, her unique Recollection Gauge is useful for monitoring a player's performance during a song, to an extent not possible with other partners, with the exception of Lagrange.
With her Gauge, it is possible to see during the round if a particular grade can still be obtained. However, the Gauge is not completely accurate near the thresholds, and sometimes displays the higher grade when the score is just below the requirement.
== Trivia ==
* DORO*C is the mascot character of the HARDCORE TANO*C label, and appears on the covers of their HARDCORE SYNDROME compilation series.
* She is the first partner to have a level-invariant OVER stat until level 20.
