    Balanced Teams

    I've seen a few posts on here about the need for balanced teams, but there's no tool in the game that makes balanced teams for you. I've tried to figure out a quick way to make a balanced team so I could keep it up to date as my knights grew in power. This is the best I was able to find. So, I thought I'd share it here:

    Starting point (Auto Setup - Total Power High-Low):



    Move the characters as follows (Sorry for MS Paint skills):



    Final result:



    This distributes your characters by power into snaked columns instead of parallel rows. So, each team has a powerful leader followed by weaker characters as it gets to the back of the team. If the adjustments above seem too complex, you can also manually copy from an auto setup group by reading the rows from the auto group and copying into columns on the manual group. I found that took more time. So, I use the method above.

    Has anyone found an easier way?

    I don't sort them by power. I sort them by attack since i want teams with equal killing potential. They'll generally get the same survival. As such i just manually put them into groups by sorting the character section by atk value and putting the highest atk girl in each group until all groups are filled.

    Cool, I'm going to try that out for a few days and see how it feels. Thanks!

    Personally I find it handy to have 2 powered teams and 2 less powered teams

    ...Also I find it pushes me to build depth into squads BUT having 2 squads I can count on and some that are there as path switchers or 'only needs to kill one pest if it goes down the right path' teams has worked well - so far

    Just adding this here,

    If you make sure to have at least 1 of each type in each team the fights go much faster. Not having someone to combat that weakness slows you down I have found.

    Take your top units that you know are your best units divide them first then see which team is lacking in whatever stat you want to balance (speed or power) and add subsequent units accordingly. You should do it on your second squad if you want balanced teams though since squad team 1 is what is sent out and you have enough squads to make sure squad 1 team 1 is the best squad you can make to send out.

    In JP (so eventually it will happen here, right?) they have an auto average sort, it snakes your 20 most "powerful" units like this:

    1 8 09 16 17
    2 7 10 15 18
    3 6 11 14 19
    4 5 12 13 20

    For now I auto-sort my first team by power for a stronger Helper squad, then refer to squad 1 as I manually sort squad 2, which I use for pretty much everything aside from raid bosses.

    edit: Technically it would be best to account for damage type, but weaker units are still weaker, you know? And honestly, the best way to use type advantage would be to have the majority of each team be a single type and place them where you're sure they'll face that type of enemy. Spreading them out for general purpose average teams isn't a bad idea, but don't worry too much about that type of balance. I'd be more worried if one of my teams was at move speed 200 than missing a blue unit.

    This looks useful for speed as well. I don't mind having slightly different powers but on some maps you really want to balance speed.

    As for damage type I've been trying to put 2 slice types in each group for 12-5. Other than that I don't worry about it too much and it will probably change if we get new maps.

    This would be great. This is the result that the method in my original post creates, but it would be way better to have a tool that does it for you. Would be nice if Nutaku had somehow managed to keep all the QoL improvements that were already in the JP version of the game...

    It's cool that your squads are well balanced in power, but they really aren't when it comes to speed. I always try to balance out power and speed. I think it's so annoying when you're trying to complete a stage but one squad is too slow to get to a fight before the other units arrive at the finish line (or if one of the squads are too fast and finish the stage before you get everything).
    I have to admit I don't have any strategies for balancing out my squads, though, I just do it manually and it takes a long time lol :x
    but I hardly ever change it, just update it whenever I get a new 4* or 5* unit so it's not that bad
