    The thing about Maribel is she isn't a typical HA so it's tricky comparing her to the others. Outside of Garret (and Deine but she's a Black anyways) the rest have a clear, heavy focus on defense while due to her stats and skill she's something of a bulky dps instead. As far as tanking goes, the fact that Maribel is often compared to Leanne, a Silver, instead of Gellius (a plat like her) or even Bernice (gold) says a lot about her full-time tanking ability. Also keeping in mind she'd have to tank an extra enemy if she AWs hurts her in comparisons to Leanne as well.

    TLDR: If you have Bernice, Gellius or Deine and a bulky dps like Shizuka, Cornelia or Elva (there are other bulky dps, of course, these are just examples) then you don't really need to worry about getting a good Maribel. If your only tank is Leanne, or you have no bulky dps, she's a solid fill-in for those roles if you have no other options. Be careful if you AW her though.

    Nice event revival !
    Thanks for the tips about maxing Meribel... if she's not so tough in defense compared to Bernice, I don't see the point of maxing her... for DPS there are better options

    Only reason compared to Bernice is if ranged deployment slots are at a premium, it's nice if your blocker can kill stuff solo. Not sure if Bernice is capable of tanking golems with skill up, need some numbers on them, I believe Maribel can with max skill and high AW level (though with 4 blocks, doing so with either is risky, given the golems' apparently massive attack stat it seems you wouldn't want other enemies smacking your blocker as well while healers are trying to heal up from that massive hit).

    From one event to another, huh?

    Meanwhile, Lines of Armor 2 is a long map. By the end I had 418 UP, most I've ever seen myself get, and it would have been more if I'd kept Katie on the field...

    Just mincosted Maribel and normally I'd feel pretty good about that, especially since I don't have another HA besides Leeanne. Then I see this talk about her having low stats for a platinum and that her skill is basically her saving grace, and now I'm all kinds of grumpy since that's only at 2/5. Sigh, at least her final map is easy as heck.

    OK, so Iron Golems are weaker I take it (but still strong enough to one-shot Leanne)?

    Regardless, Maribel will be an upgrade to those who only have Leanne, Bernard and/or Garret or lack an off-tank/bulky dps, the others are better in almost every situation that you actually want a durable blocker.

    @Tony: Skill isn't too bad to raise, since you can always use Rainbow Spirits later. Min-costing is the important part since you won't get many chances to do it after the event (not many = 0 unless you whale enough to get the Bond Fairies from SL Stamp Card)

    Maribel is an odd one when it comes to heavy armors. Generally they excel in health and defense and attack less so, yet Maribel while still excelling in health, lacks in defense and makes up for it in attack. It is also true that in terms of skill activation higher rarity units are always quicker and Maribel is good in that respect.

    It comes down to preference I think to some degree. I personally want a heavy armor that takes hits though having one deal them out is good in some situations. Again to reiterate, Maribel is a good choice when she is fully maxed out and awakened. You can even have her skill be under-powered because it always doubles attack and defense.

    The key thing that is preventing me from fawning over her (which I would in other situations) is that she is difficult to get a hold of. Last I checked, drop rates for any event farming are rather atrocious. I have been trying to farm for mages in the last event for nearly its entirety and I only got two, and that was for two weeks where this is for one only.

    TLDR: Maribel is a good choice of unit. However she would be difficult for some players to max out and that would take time. Early players should rather focus on other units for either defense or attack and have Maribel be a long time project until she is usable.
