Thread: need advice for team developement

As the title say, I'm in dire need of helpful advice.I just play for, until the end of this month, 2 months long so I don't have any event unit outside of Imelia.Here's my team , sort by Rarity and level respectively:

I got way too many healer while none of the DPS, and my DC condition is nowhere near enough to have Spica yet, currently focusing on the event.So I hope for advices on how should I develope my team, by spending SC to PS or to wait for Anna(rumored to be next event).

looks like a decent setup for early game. I guess you should work on Olivie, Elaine, Imelia, bernard and a 2nd mage (hope you can get pallis), more or less in that order. I'd say save your SCs until you have 50 for the stamp card, and either roll or expand slots (expanding is recommended over rolling because of hoarding silvers and fairies for efficient leveling and AW'ing in the future). Whenever you get spica, I'd slot her after Olivie and before Elaine.

units are generally considered usable at 50cc40, but I'd recommend getting at least to 50cc50. olivie should get to 53 before feeding black fairies + plat armor for her leveling so you don't burn your gold.

You have a decent starting team there, but it is still missing a few essential pieces that you'll want to fill:

1) Spica - a major component to range dps, very high priority for dcs, may even consider spending SCs on thursday daily if there's a warning that the Trading Post will change (as you definitely do not want to miss her).

2) Bernice - a super solid tank whose availability can either make or break event, consider spending on premium summon if she's a spotlight. Silver HAs won't be enough on harder maps.

While you're working on acquiring those two (or after raising them if you get them), raise up Olivie/Imelia, as those will be your primary magic/physical duelists. You will also want to raise the 2nd Iris up, because having solid healers are pretty essential (unless you get fedora). A second mage will also be good as well, but it might be better to wait for Pallis (either through the story line or via events - should be one in memento's event if we don't skip that) instead of raising a second Valerie.

I'm trying to save SC(though I'll gladly burn 9 more(down to 10) for Waltz) and I have already complete 50 SC for my stamp.Spica is a bit far-fetched, since my team can't do the X map and H map has terrible drop rate, at least for me( min is 0-1 and max is 2-4).Working on Elaine but even then she cant tank 3 lich at once in 500 kills, and I still cant pass BS II so Pallis is a bit out of reach as well.

Tks for the advice.Still even my core silver team isn't full AFF yet(only Katie, Chloris, Alissa and Soma) and time is pretty tight.

BSII pretty much requires you to have strong physical dps, so having spica will be really helpful. also you can forget about X because it pretty much requires AW70 spica. farming crystal keeper H diligently was how all of us got our spica.

if you're looking for 500 kills at subjugation, you will most likely need 2 mages. check out the subjugation thread for more info, I theorized a 2 healer setup for that map which basically requires Imelia + Leeanne/Bernard and a couple of other lightning rods for the liches. you can also refer to other guide videos that use 3 healers and so on, although from what I can tell, your dps for it will be lacking regardless.

also, people shouldnt worry about not getting 500 kills in subjugation IMO. I started in DMM 5 months ago and I've not gotten even a single subjugation where I managed the full kills. pretty sure I missed 150 demon crystals that way.

No love for Berna?

none. rogues remain low priority eternally except for level 25 cypria to 1* skip castle retake (and clear RtR early). they have their uses, but they lose out to many other units in general usefulness by nature.

still as a black wouldnt she be very useful as a low cost duelist at 14 up. surely better then a valk or bandit at 13

Actually Sora, i have to say that Berna, when awakened, is a beast. Much like Karma/Sophie, she can save the day 90% of time. :P

She has so many "chance to kill" (see pic below), that she literally one shots 4+- units in row with skill on, and i dont mean goblins, i mean heavies with 1000 def or whatnot, liches, this dancer on X map, horse riders. Just pew pew pew and all gone =)

Honestly, i kept her at lv35 for a looooong time, but then i said, fuck it, she's black, why not, got her to lv cc60, still didnt use her a lot (but i did use her). Then i said fuck it again and awakened her. Ever since then im just sitting like O.O watching how she annihilates enemies. Like cutting through butter.

Also forgot to say, if you take in account her attack speed (which should be 1.3 i think +-) her attack, prince, and skill, she has huge attack, (if i did my math okay, 1122 damage per sec)

And then SAW comes and she turns into hurricane of death, assassinating everybody around her with impunity. Not even fliers will be safe from her wrath (later on)!
Besides, tokenized rogues are pretty fun to have, throw at enemies without support and not care even one bit XD
