Japanese Iris, gacha reward, 4400, triple target

Of those four, Japanese Iris would be the only one I'd consider "better" than Edelweiss.
Peach and Oxalis more or less on par, mainly due to Edelweiss her relatively low skill activation.
Star Lily just below Edelweiss due to her first passive only buffing one random other squadmember, while her second passive is at "half strength".

Every event girl coming after Mountain Lily is relatively "nerfed" compared to 5* girls coming from gacha. Sometimes by ability, other times by lower stats.
Lavender, Edelweiss and Mountain Lily are as good as it gets for event girls.

Edelweiss is really really good but her evolved ability of +50 spd holds her in line a bit. If she had a % atk power as second ability she would be among the best girls. Basically what Evening Primrose has now Girls with a % power ability can beat Edelweiss in terms of raw power but she still remains a very good all-round 5*, even more so with 4 equipment slots.

I just noticed your helper squad is really similar to mine

Evening Primrose is amazing in Terms of Abilities, Stats and Bloomed Form but DMM could make an even better Girl if they want to...

Imagine a 6* with Bloomed Form and Atk Boost for all Squad Members (20% based on Affection), 1,2 Skill Activation for all Squad Members and 10-15% Damage Reduction for Enemies...That's the Ultimate Unit^^

I think Bride Orchid will become the Ultimate Unit in the future btw.

Orchid/Oncidium, Edelweiss and Toadie make for a very solid base. Not really special, but it's fast and doesn't wither away on pest-maps.

Life steal, atk down and evade are the base of an ultimate unit. Skill and atk up would be bonuses.

To be honest I'll get a 2nd Edel, a 2nd Mountain Lilly and a 2nd Star lilly - beyond that is any girl worth doubling down on?

You could keep every extra event girl locked up until they can be sold for bond crystals.

Yeh I've heard about these, what are they, how'd they work....

Selling or foddering 3*+ girls will give you bond crystals which can be used to buy gifts for reaching 200% affection or other stuff to be added later. Higher rarities are worth more crystals.

Of course it won't be happening any time soon.

She DOES get a bloomed form to help her out later; those are always nice boosts to raw stats. It's not completely ideal, but she does get Gentian's Atk-Boost ability, in chunks of 5%, up to 15%.

oh thats really cool, I did not dare to think that an event girl would get a bloomed form, I expected that treatment to be for gacha girls.
