Thread: Flower Knight Tactica

Well in FKG I don't really bother ranking any girls. Every 6* girls are strong and usable with some capable in broken maps more than others. Counter teams happened to serve as 'Jack of all stat, master of offense in form of defense' This team has high survivability and if you don't know, counter damage and solar drive penetrate defense. The damage becomes consistence and you can just use 1 team to blow many challenging maps away. But don't expect to see super fancy numbers like nuke or crit team.

Saffron is regards as the best tanker in the game due to her perfect synergy in abilities set. She possess 'the trinity' defense skill. (Dodge+Counter+Guts) Equip Provocation on her and you will get not just fortress wall, but a fortress with battalion cannon full stationed that ready to blast anyone who try to breakthrough.

So after rolling the stathammer hamster wheel around for a while, I decided to exchange my Rcoins for Habrantus. I really like her, and she is a unique slice girl with Negation skill which is pretty dope.
As for the reconstruction of my team I decided on the following :
Team 1 My current Crit girls
Team 2
Habrantus, Soapworth, Sneezweed, Anemone, X (X is the blue type Counter girl, currently there is only Viola Yukata and Snowdrop, none of which I really like, so here I am hoping for some new counter/guts Hit type 6* in the future).
Team 3
Nightmaher, Appricot, Saffron, Apple Tanabata, X
Team 4
A mix of whichever 6* remain

That gives me at least 1 girl of each type. Both teams have a single attack barrier, one team has a debuffer in Apple. Both teams have a single character without Super Counter (only regular one) - Nightmaher and Habrantus, who instead bring Skill activation and some other gimmick.
Since I have Nightmare, Soapworth and Anewaifu the planning was done with those in mind.
I wanted to build the last team from either Re-acting girls, or a second crit team, but that would leave me with some of the girls completely useless (Victoria, Iono, Alstromaria).
So for the moment Team 4 will be a mixed bag team without any clear focus, where the current non fitting girls will be put, until more fitting characters come along.

You might have noticed I have skipped over Promoted girls. Indeed. While many of them are super amazing, I just dont wanna use them in the regullar teams. If we had maybe a Team 5 I would make one out of those.
I am however considering using promoted Hit type counter girls to fill in the last spots in the two regular 6* counter teams, and maybe pad out the remaining 2 slots in team 4 for the time being.

Any thoughts about the setup ?

Myrdin: How's that Counter team doing for you? I have Apple T. and soon to get Safforn, and Maayyybbee considering getting Apricot. That a good combo... with Apricot 1st turn immunity thing?

And what are some other good rainbow counter girls....?

Its not doing anything atm. because I was hoping for some feedback. Have not yet got Habrantus because I am indecisive whether to get her or Sneezweed first.

As far as my 5* counter with Anewaifu added to it goes. Yeah its pretty damn good. fully maxed 5* Nadeshiko chan (Pink Miko) is a beast, but I`ve been saying that for a long time now.
So yeah, once I decide whom to pick then things move on a bit with the setup mentioned in my comment above, but for the moments its no hold.

Hows that Apple T. working for you though ? On paper she seems solid when put into a team with the right people.

Apricot always important in team build with her speed and passive.
Immune shield do help a lot in the fight that enemy turn go first.
But Apricot don't have guts, so she can still faint easy.

Apricot can turn from lose to win with her 1 time immune. Especially in this Nidhogg crazy hard stage or the last time optional stage that boss can 1 shot you no matter how high your def/hp is.

@Myrdin I think your team is great enough and should be able to challenge anything except some broken maps. As now you have more rainbows than me and here I can take on almost everything. As for Sneezeweed vs Habrantus Sneezeweed goes with offense and Habrustus for defense. As you know I'm your polar opposite who play safe and defensive so if you ask me, I would pick Habrantus. But Sneezeweed has higher moe-factor for me.

Edit: What do you think about Rainbow Lantana? She herself is pretty lackluster as a rainbow but her gimmick can help you form a team without rely on skill activation girls too much. If you catch all the swords all teams will get 1.2-1.3x skill act boost and it seperate from chocolate heal node, so you can heal for 6 times maximum. In short, she allow more freedom in create a team. The bad side is... well... I don't like her. But then again I'm not gonna pick her, at least soon. I just want some opinions about this girl.

As I mentioned I dont have all the girls I used in those teams. I have few but of them yes, but most of them I still need to get one way or another.
It was more of me thinking out loud and wanting to hear what you guys who use Counter teams a lot think about the possible setup.

The reason I included Habrantus and Appricot is to actually allow me to challange those maps. That one attack negation can do a lot. And counter teams deal a lot of damage to those broken bosses as is. Sure Phoenix chan would be a sure way to go but.... I dont really like her that much ><
So you think this setup is not good for those maps ? I mean Its still 3 teams of maxed out Rainbows hitting those bosses (again thats a thing that they will be, not what they are right now.) and one mish mash team of rainbows and 5*/promo girls. Thats ought to do something right ?

Sneezweed is definitely geting in... I mean... look at my signature To not include her is out of question haha ~
Its more of a question whether to pick her right now with rainbow coins, and then take Habrantus later when a Ticket gacha comes around, or do it the other way and pick Habrantus now and go for Helenium (Sneezweed, though I like Helenium better in this case.)

I dont really like her. That skill is way to unreliable and gimmicky, and requires to much micromanaging your team setups. Which automatically excludes some of your girls you might wanna be using otherwise. Not a fan of this sort of abilities.

It's pretty solid, so no worry. As for your waifu...

Lantana is useful in single route map like some Aqua-boss map or Whale mission.
The activation her sword give not that powerful if your team have low skill level.
Also her sword panel do remove solar drive panel.

If you lacking of dodging unit, need girl that can boost boss hit Lantana is one of your choice.

I have Apple Tanabata kind of criss-crossing b/w my max debuff team and counter team, as she can do both. Working well with debuff team, except for super broken maps, enemies hit for low 100's, i's really nice pests doing jack-all, while my girls demolish them. And I just got Rainbow Safforn and don't have another rainbow counter other than Apple so she's good for that too. Apple does die a bit too easily sometimes which is a shame, as she has great 2x attack which helps when you need that extra attack, and even sweeter when her skill activates 2x in a row. Feels good.

Missed my chance to get Apricot yesterday, kind of sad. But now I'm going to focus on building a team around Safforn, I can't believe I didn't get her sooner, she is so OP and great design to add as well.

I got killed on them Nighogg(sp.?) EX levels, and absolutely murdered on the last two levels. I was like "I killed U"...but it was reborn again, I was like WTF???

Any suggestions for builds with Safforn focus?
(Guess I really shoulda got that Apricot huh...I'll kick myself)
