Say, is it worth the time to farm SR weapons from story mode? If so, what's the best stage to farm the materials for them?

All of the story mode weapons are incredibly poor. You should use them if you have nothing better, but every advent/event gives SR weapons that are better. The average total power of story mode weapons is around 1400 (assault or defender). The average event SR is around 1800 total power. Not worth keeping them for the long run. The only thing moderately recommended from the story mode is the Vine Eidolon (SR) as she has -10% DEF down. If you're going to farm story mode, farm that.

If you're looking for SR assault weapons, farm the catastrophes. Any level catastrophe can give you an SR weapon (assault or defender) with the Ultimate only dropping defenders. When I was first starting my grid, that was the main set of SR weapons I had (for all elements). You can do each level 3 times and make sure to drop into others as much as possible. You only have to hit the enemy once to get a chance of getting an SR weapon.

Oh no, I was gonna use them for skill level fodder

There's no point farming those for fodder, since you can just run the standard/expert raids for fodder much easier.

What is the drop rate on SR drops in raids, anyway? I need loads of fodder myself.

I have some data on this (assumes all elements have the same drop rate and all data from me solo-ing the whole raid):

Standard: 287 raids dropped 61 assault or defender SR weapons (21%)
Expert: 119 raids dropped 14 assault or defender SR weapons (12%) - not sure if expert drops are actually lower or I just have incredibly bad luck
Ultimate: no data, I am not strong enough to solo these yet

Note that Ultimate only drop ASSAULT (ATK up) NOT defender (HP up), although for skill fodder, it doesn't matter.

Got a couple new SSRs and was hoping for some team advice.

Water:
Cthulhu, Sarasvati, Ea, Asherah, Aphrodite, Shiva, Ryu-oh. Was previously running Aphrodite/Sarasvati (depending on if I needed a cleanse or not), Shiva, Asherah, and Ryu-Oh, but with obtaining Cthulhu was thinking of swapping her with aphro/sarasvati, however that would mean no healing for raid fights (for soloing). While my water grid is definitely my best, it's still not quite there, and I still haven't actually bought a main soul weapon yet - largely due storm bow alvand being necessary to get to -50% def down (which after acquiring Cthulhu this morning, I believe no longer will be necessary, however it would still be so if I want to use Shingen's EX ability.....).

Wind
Cu Chulainn, Azazel, Hastur, Gaia, Titania.
I just got Titania, who I'm assuming should replace Azazel and be put in the first slot (or should Cu still be first? Haven't messed around with her yet and still unawakened). The main question is should this comp be running Shingen with EX ability or no? No SS means only 40% def down, which makes me think for now Herc is still the way to go, but that means losing out on Shingen's EX for the smexy burst chaining.

Dark
Thanatos, Satan, Pluto, Hades, Amon-U, and Susanoo.
Just picked up Susano-o and still leveling her, but was curious if she could even be shoved into my line up in any way. Using Thanatos, Satan, Pluto, and Hades atm with Shingen (EX ability), which unfortunately only puts me at -45% def down, but feel like that's better than going Amon + Satan and leaving Thanatos out. Either way, adding Susano-o would mean replacing either Pluto or Hades, both of whom seem pretty necessary considering I have no atk down in my comp with Hades (and my dark grid is severely HP lacking/underwhelming as a whole). I've debated taking Thanatos out and running SS on soul, but not sure if that's worth it especially as I'm still leveling Susano-o.

Fire
So my fire comp is garbage, only have Prometheus and Dakki and using Haphaestus cause fire has no def downs, but can never decide who I want the last SR to be. Currently running D'art with soul weapon, but realized that to clear the rank 5 accessory quest I need to run Shingen for PF (or else I can't drain her rage gauge quick enough), making me think Shingen's the way to go overall, but that means only -35% def down at most running Haphaestus. Keep going back and forth on Themis (for quicker bursts), Kagutsuchi for the explosive ability nuke, and Agni for her fire atk up. Also toyed with Ragaraja, but always seemed a bit too lackluster for me. I could of course opt out of running a 5th fire unit in replace of more debuffs from another element, but not sure who I would use.

Sorry long post. Any help appreciated.

So I'll comment on the two teams I play and let someone else more knowledgeable on the other elements comment on those.

For water your strongest team is Asherah, Saraswati, Ryu-Oh, and Cthulhu. This team is fairly fast, has -40% DEF down, Black Propaganda, orb eat, and has some basic healing. Between Asherah and Saraswati you should be able to speed this team up fairly well. Cthulhu can also be fast, but is usually temperamental as her speed isn't guaranteed. I'd stick Cthulhu first, then Saras, followed by Asherah and Ryu-Oh last.

For the dark team I'd run Thanatos, Satan, Pluto, and Susanoo. There's no healing here (other than Susanoo's self heal), but you've got -45% DEF down, orb eat, speed, damage cut, and damage up. Should be fairly strong. BTW- Susanoo awakened is ungodly in strength. She, on average, does at least 20% more damage than other Dark SSRs. I usually can't find place for her in my team, but I'd take her over Hades and Amon since you have Satan and Pluto. Line up should be as listed up above. Once you up your grid, hopefully you won't be feeling so bad about HPs or healing. You can take Shingen with this team and see how it runs. You'll be looking for Osiris (to replace Susanoo) at some point to make a fairly fast bursty team.

Don't know when it happened, but apparently they fixed Dark Amon's DEF down so it is C frame now.

So I've been scouted by a union, but the problem is everytime I click on the members button to take a look at their players, my game shows me the error screen. I've cleared my cache and everything but it still persists. Clicking on members in my current union is fine however. Anybody else experiencing this?
