Yeah, it's the context of my roster that even really makes it a question. In a perfect world I'd handpick a varied toolkit of units over having randomly acquired 2 copies of Sybilla but in reality I'm at the mercy of RNG and events like everyone else. I'll probably just go ahead and CR/SU her up since awakening both would be obnoxiously expensive anyway. I am a bit tempted to leave the second one at around level 40 for a while though and use her as my second magic sponge/duelist until something more interesting comes along and I feed her to Sybilla Prime. I mean, hey, Sybilla may not be the best unit but at least she doesn't need to be CC'd, which is more than I can say for my other stepping stone units. :P

Sybilla is actually one of units that (from what I seen in the sticky thread) lose some functionality upon SkillAwakening - she trades assassination for ranged attack. So keeping two copies of her - one SAW'd and one not - may actually be reasonable choice.)

not really. you should note that she gets range on skill even before skill AW (her AW passive already grants her 200 attack range on skill, skill AW merely upgrades it to 280, which is unnecessary for the most part)

then again, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7g_jJEB3s8 disagrees. (naturally, also another special case)

Well yeah, I suppose that bringing an event unit into a discussion about premium units and RNG wasn't really appropriate, but it was simply to illustrate that I'm pining over a free unit more than something significantly more rare and potentially expensive.

Apples to pears aside, in a perfect world, I'd love a varied ramp roster too. But I also accept that it's unlikely to happen, nor does it matter enough to me to throw $ at DMM for the shot at it. So by my standards, having dupes of blacks or plats is more unlucky than lucky (Although still more lucky than getting your 6th Conrad or Betty...) It just so happens that Lisse Lotte is the one unit I wouldn't mind having more of, because as you said, she's easier to SU and mincost than someone like Jerome or Zenobia, and ultimately performs better because of it.
