Burnice, unlike Soldier 0 Anby, is an Anomaly Agent. Therefore, aiming forat least350-400Anomaly Proficiencyis very important when building her. You also need to have at least2800-3000 ATKas her Afterburn mechanic gets stronger with the more ATK she has.

Role
Soldier 0 Anby is an extremely straightforward Attack Agent, but varies slightly from other Agents in her role in terms of playstyle. Unlike most Attack agents that swap in after an enemy is stunned, Soldier 0 Anby prefers to be on-field to deal consistent Aftershock damage while getting support from off-field stunners like Trigger and Pulchra.
Burnice, on the other hand, is the complete opposite of Soldier 0 Anby. A lot of her time should be spent off-field after quickly applying Burn and swapping to a different Agent. Her damage output truly shines when she is off-field thanks to her Afterburn.
If you wish to have an Attack Agent that prefers to be in action much more than most, you will find Soldier 0 Anby to be fun to utilize. Otherwise, Burnice is the better option when it comes to pure value in the meta, as itheavily favors Disorder team compositions, which is where Burnice shines.
