- Kerria is a weapon of mass destruction once bloomed and Acacia is a solid crit stacker (+10% for the squad and another 40% for herself).
- Dendrobium is really good at clearing non-boss encounters with even decent squad synergy and Cactace is another solid crit stacker (+15% for the squad) and can deal a LOT of single target damage due to double strike chance and a 350% multiplier on her skill.
- Anemone and Loquat are both great for crit stacking (Loquat has +20% crit rate and +30% crit damage, Anemone has +25% crit rate).
- Both Iberis and Jersey Cudweed provide a little of everything (Jersey gives +skill proc rate, +skill damage, +solar burst damage and +attack; Iberis gives +skill proc rate, +attack, causes pests to miss 12% of the time and allows three non-hit Knights including herself to deal damage as if they were hit Knights).

Thanks for replying, fghk0, phob, and tomitain. Just replying with tomitain's since it's the most recent. So from what the 3 of you are recommending, it looks like it's mostly down to between Kerria and Loquat, as those 2 are the only ones mentioned by all 3. I don't have any trouble with the regular events or campaign. My biggest problem is with the last whale stages and last couple of Concept missions, where there's a recommended power level of at least 600,000 for one of them, up to 640,000. Those are the 2 main sections I can't clear. With that in mind, is Kerria being suggested just because I mentioned her, or is she actually worth it for that content? Or should I just go with Loquat, as all 3 have mentioned?
