Awakening

[Unregistered]

So I currently am working with a wind team of Azazel, Titania, Cu Chulainn, Oberon, Iblis, and Freja. I have 3 draconic eyes. I know we have a miracle ticket coming up (and the players choice top awards) so hopefully I can get a Gaia soon. Do I awaken Titania now or do I wait?

I would wait until we know what's on the Miracle ticket.

I got a question for you. Are you a wind team main?
Do you have anything reliable as a backup element team when a Fire event arrives?

If you don't have any problems, then I'd say sure, go for it, the earlier you awaken KHs, the more prepared you will be for future events since they will be at lvl 80.
To complete your team, what you're looking for is SSR Cybele (and perhaps Hastur) which neither of them have an awakening and probably won't have an awakening unless they win a popularity vote.

Why would either Cybele or Hastur need awakenings? Both of them are really fucking powerful on their own right.

His argument is that if there's nothing else to spend those Draconic Eyes on, then Titania should be Awakened by default. But that ignores the OP's question, since he's wondering whether to save the eyes to awaken Gaia. To which I pose the followup question: Will you actually acquire Gaia in the next 3 months? That's not a given.

I just got the gaia from the miracle ticket which was my plan and I'm saving jewels for when ssr cybele drops. Really the question was more for how long I'd have to wait for the gaia but the miracle ticket dropped just after I posted. At this point my theory is that awakened gaia will probably bring more to my team than titania since I'm quite far away from getting to Shingen.

Each to their own. Gaia is very good but you have to know how to use her. There's so much people that think that having Gaia means immortality, which is not.

Don't follow advices blindly, even if Gaia is a top tier hime (She is), there are better setups that are outright ignoring her.

Decided to register. Yeah trying not to blindly pick things. I haven't been playing for a ton of time so I wasn't positive on which ssr to miracle. I have been going wind because I have jabberwocky and azazel, titania, and cu. Outside of that my only other ssr eidelon is huang and there I only have raiko. Then I have ssr satan and hades, ssr Nike, and metatron, so it seemed like wind was the way to go. While its seems like burst or bezerk wind have a lot of potential I'm super far away because of the holy souls needed to unlock the shingen and shingen/morgana (I started full unlocking lower level stuff before I realized where that would leave me). So it seemed to me that while I could grab hastur she wouldn't immediately impact the team the way gaia will since I'm pretty much completely sans healing. Honestly I'm not sure where I should be heading next. I have 30 regalia saved up but I don't know if unlocking dart and taking the gp weapon and going with sniper ambush is the way to go, or if I should save to buff mordreds weapon. Post that it seems like I got to angle for cybele next and then shingen and then possibly transition to morgana.

Then go for it, your Wind team desperately needs some sustain.

It's a shame Wind doesn't have that much healers, Ithaqua being the best (a SR), outside of that, you should be able to pretty much take every single raid down with that setup, given that the burst potential with Titania and Cu Chulain is insane.

[MagicSpice]

my current wind tea doesn't have a lot of key kami, so using awakened gaia with a lot of atk downs can give quite a lot of sustain for your team. adding Joan to this combo makes you nearly unkillable when used right (bonus points with joan and gaia's mitigation skills combined practically nullifying damage at that point).

the trick is to use what you got to survive. if you can build more power on that to clear faster, then fine. but top priority is being able to survive the harder content, not smashing it into oblivion.

granted a lot of setups ignore using gaia, but you're not there yet and she's WAY more useful to players that can't crank out the damage, provided you use her right...

can't overestimate that powerful skill set she gets even when awakened or you'll find yourself in a bad spot, especially if it's something like a wind team against Rahab ragnarok since you're getting nuked often and it'll crack through defenses at some point.

So I did go Gaia, and assuming I awaken her once I finish leveling her where do you think i should go soul/relic/kami wise in the future? Do I put gaia in main squad for oberon or someone else? Also have ithqua, sr cybele, and Maeve on the bench should one of them come off?

honestly, maeve doesn't seem too good compared to the others... while cybele can be covered by mordred or d'art if you have either of those souls...

but on the other hand, i have run joan with ambush, which are better versions of oberon's debuffs

you might have to adjust your team so you can make the most of the atk and def debuffs you can get then go from there... it's not too hard to hit the 50% atk debuff cap (cybelle, zepyrus and caspiel pretty much guarantees you can do it), but i think the most def will get right now is around 40% (but i'm not sure so use that as a starting point and not a concrete fact).

if survival is your thing, then you definitely got it, but for damage, my wind team will toss in iblis (who also covers the same debuffs as cybele) for wind atk buffing and use someone to buff atk as well (there's a few of them in the wind SR section, including Aisha if you got her from the koihime crossover event)

I was using iblis on my main team until I unlocked and started using mordred. My understanding is mordreds debuff and iblises are both the same so don't stack which is why I switched her to the sub team and pulled oberon forward. Currently using the team Atk buff ex skill to try to get some atk up. I'm getting close to unlocking my second legendary soul which was why I was debating going dart and getting her relic and then using ambush to hit the defense cap, but then I don't really have any atk buffs.
