Thanks you for all the help for everyone for the advise about Saffron!!, for this im really sucks in this type of choices x

Help!

I'm not too sure which 6* to get, since I already made the painful decision to not get gorgeous Lycoris. I'm debating between Kerria and Saffron right now, both seem OP, but I can't decide which way to go (considering Mei Plumblossom and Anemone, but not as close as those 2). I like Kerria's skills better, but pierce is probably one of my weaker ones, and I'm getting worried about the whale ships. I'm looking at end-game mostly, which I know is way in the future, but I'm mostly focusing on their bloom stats and abilities. This is what I currently have

Hit:
Flowering Peach, Viola

Magic:
Dogwood, Nerine

Yeah I know, not much. I know Saffron can be bloomed right now, but that doesn't matter to me, since I know Kerria will be bloomed 'eventually'. I like Kerria's absorb HP on her ability and that I can make her a tank for my teams. Does anyone have any input, or are there other 6* I should be looking at?

I would get the awesome Saffron since blooms might take forever

My personal favorite is Snowdrop and I wouldn't trade her for anyone.

can someone explain why everyone keeps talking about saffron? is it only cause she has a bloom? cause her skills don't look impressive to me vs other 6*

She has both dodge and counter when bloomed. Counter lets her deal damage when hit based off of her defence stat and dodge let's her avoid being hit. Give her taunt and you have one of the best defensive units in the game.

Exactly this. Put defensive equipment on her (the Sandersonia set is pretty good, the "Drop of Sunshine" set is the best until we get EX equipment), ampy her (focus on hp/def first), add Taunt and Saffron becomes a beastly tank whose job is to be the first one on the squad to die, but not before wrecking enemies with counter-attacks (counters trigger when she dodges too).

Speaking of equipment, she's the only unit I can think of whom I would actually not recommend equipping any whaleship gear on since the defensive values aren't great.

Theorethically you can achieve similar effect with Nightmaher, Evade and Counter as well.
Now granted Saffron has defensive buffs, Nightmaher has Skill activation, so you are trading some durability for increased damage, but there is that option if you dont need a full fledged Tank, rather something like an Off tank, that can still take good amount of punishemnt but improves your overall damage potential thus eliminating the enemy faster and alleviating the necessity for tanking.

Other than those two there is no other 6 who has Evade + Counter skill combination (I know that, coz I looked and written down all of the Evade 6* when I was putting down my Evade team for DMM)
