Comprehensive Guide to Universal Tower Defense: Mastering the Z Corpse Maiden (Giselle)

Inspired by Giselle Gewelle from the anime Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, Corpse Maiden is chiefly a debuff unit in Universal Tower Defense Z. Her primary ability involves inflicting Confusion on enemies, thereby boosting her damage output based on the number of affected foes within her range. Upon evolution, she morphs into Zombie Apostle (Ascension), gaining an Active Ability that can transform infected adversaries into zombie minions.

This guide provides insight into the process of acquiring and evolving Corpse Maiden in Universal Tower Defense Z.

How to get Corpse Maiden in Universal Tower Defense Z

Players can obtain Corpse Maiden via the Special Banner and Selection Banner. While summoning a unit from these gachas typically costs 50 Gems, those with a VIP pass can enjoy a reduced expense per pull.

As a Mythic rarity unit, Corpse Maiden might occasionally take center stage in the Special Banner. During these times, her pull rate is elevated compared to other Mythics. When the banner highlights Corpse Maiden, it’s advisable to utilize your Gems in pursuit of acquiring her.

Additionally, the Selection Banner offers a unique opportunity every 24 hours where players can choose which character will be at the banner’s center. By selecting Corpse Maiden, you can then spend Gems specifically to add her to your collection.

In both the Special Banner and Selection Banner, you’re guaranteed to pull a Mythic-rarity unit from your 400th summon, courtesy of the pity system. Do note that the pity resets if you get a Mythic before the 400th summon.
