Negotiator and Pro Negotiator are active skills that increase the recruitment rate of characters obtained from enemy drops.
All Negotiator skills can be activated from chain and target enemies in the pincer. These skills all last one turn. In order to have any effect, the targeted enemy must be defeated on the same turn as when the skill activated.
Negotiator skills have no effect on characters received after battle, item drop rates (see: Treasure Hunter), or companions.
Drop rate calculations[]
Effective drop rate = [base drop rate] × (1 + [Negotiator activations in the last turn])
Each Negotiator skill has a different multiplier, with higher multipliers having stronger effects:
- Negotiator (Kiss Bottle) = 1
- Negotiator = 2
- Pro Negotiator = 8
Additional Negotiator activations are addititve: Two Pro Negotiator activations add a 16x multiplier, one Pro Negotiator and one Negotiator activation add a 10x multiplier. This multiplier is capped at 18x — additional activations will not increase the drop rate any further.
Drop rate multipliers, such as from Daily Bonus, are applied after Negotiator calculations.
A drop rate of 100% or higher will guarantee a successful recruitment.
Examples:
- 20% base drop rate
- One Negotiator (Kiss Bottle) activation:
20% × (1 + 1) = 40%
- One Negotiator activation:
20% × (1 + 2) = 60%
- One Negotiator activation on a double drop day:
20% × (1 + 2) × 2 = 120% → guaranteed drop
- One Pro Negotiator activation:
20% × (1 + 8) = 180% → guaranteed drop
- One Negotiator (Kiss Bottle) activation:
- 5% base drop rate
- One Negotiator (Kiss Bottle) activation:
5% × (1 + 1) = 10%
- One Negotiator activation:
5% × (1 + 2) = 15%
- One Pro Negotiator activation:
5% × (1 + 8) = 45%
- Two Pro Negotiator activations:
5% × (1 + 8 + 8) = 85%
- One Negotiator and two Pro Negotiator activations:
5% × (1 + 2 + 8 + 8) = 95%
- Three Pro Negotiator activations:
5% × (1 + 8 + 8 + 8) → capped multiplier → 5% × (1 + 18) = 95%
- Two Pro Negotiator activations on a double drop day:
5% × (1 + 8 + 8) × 2 = 170% → guaranteed drop
- One Negotiator (Kiss Bottle) activation:
- 2% base drop rate
- One Negotiator and two Pro Negotiator activations:
2% × (1 + 2 + 8 + 8) = 38%
- One Negotiator and two Pro Negotiator activations on a double drop day:
2% × (1 + 2 + 8 + 8) × 2 = 76%
- One Negotiator and two Pro Negotiator activations:
- 1% base drop rate
- One Negotiator and two Pro Negotiator activations:
1% × (1 + 2 + 8 + 8) = 19%
- One Negotiator and two Pro Negotiator activations on a double drop day:
1% × (1 + 2 + 8 + 8) × 2 = 38%
- One Negotiator and two Pro Negotiator activations:

Trivia[]
- Pro Negotiator was originally intended to be a hidden ability that activated when Rikken and Yukken were in the same party. However, this idea was scrapped, as it violated Japan's "kompu gacha" laws.
- Before version 2.4.0, "Pro Negotiator" was named "Negotiator Pro".
- Version 2.9.0 capped the Negotiator multiplier at 18x.
