Thread: Kamihime General Discussion + Q&A

Up to you. What you value? You should know the encyclopedia - on short term, there seems to be two Fire events, two Dark events, two Thunder events, and one of each of the rest.

Do you want to just spend one week before each event working on the counter element to that? Or will you prioritize some events more than others? Like maybe you'll prioritize single-player Advents since nobody can help you if you fail? Maybe you'll focus on the Wind raid to get more MvPs? Or perhaps focus on perfecting your Grid for one of the Union events?

There is no real answer, I'd think. It's all up to what you prefer.

That reminds me, what should I start using for Fire teams?

Obviously Yamaraja and Awakened Svarog due to buffs (and yama's debuffs), but there's brynhildr (healing/buffing), Dakki (same as bryhildr more or less), Awakened Ares (damage and currently needs fire mats to break limit), and Acala (well, she's only rage nuking for me anyway, maybe bursting too since she can charge it). Also working with Agni and Konohana but.... yamaraja covers both of them and then some...

and no 100% eidolon but.... lv100 Echidna is 60% dark/fire so that's still a lot.


also have 1 more slot open for weapons, but i'll get to that eventually. at this point, i don't mind waiting until the next fire event to stick an SSR in there (and another SR assault if the SSR is skippable like andram's)

Got a party advice question myself as well. Only real element I'm super confident in is water, but wondering if there's any kamihime I should be saving jewels to try and get for any comp or just spend them asap. Kind of text heavy below but short version is good water comp with 4 SSR, meh wind comp with Azazel and A-Gaia, Dakki for fire, nothing for lightning, Michael for light, and Amon (Unleashed) + Thanatos for dark. Not sure if I should save jewels to grab something specific or just get more of anything. Unfortunately no great Eidolons but I do have Ifrit and Archangel.

Water
Shingen, Sarasvati, Asherah; Aphrodite, Ryu-oh
Any specific water kamihime coming out that would be a great addition to this? Also should I get a soul weapon (and replace soul with someone else) or just save/wait for Shingen's to come out? Grid is Assault (L) x3, 1 Pride weapon, Assault (M) x 4, Defender (S) x2 (from Illuyanka Breaker and Snowpack Hammer), and 1 Defender (L).

Wind
Herc/Andromeda (or someone else?), Azazel, A-Gaia; Oberon, Iblis
Have Principality, Ramiel (wind), Krampus, Guan Yu, Maeve, Cronus, and Hermes that I could swap in. Grid is all over the place - working on finishing leveling a couple things.

Fire
Pretty garbage but currently I have
???, Dakki, Kagutsuchi, Agni, Raguel
Have Brynhildr, Ceridwen, Motu, Ragaraja, and Kishar to swap in

Those are the only real comps I can do anything with in part due to weapons. Thunder I have no SSRs and nothing really good for SRs either tbh.
Dark I kinda want to make a comp around as I just recently picked up Thanatos on top of Amon (Unleashed), but not really sure what to pair them with (soul and other SR kami) - have Rangda, Hypnos, Lu Bu, Bastet, Pharol, Pale Rider, Eligos, Tsukuyomi, and Beelzebub. Also, only have 1 or 2 MBL dark weapons atm.....
Light I have Michael. I have 7 SR light kami but nothing really leveled or set yet other than Michael. Light I know I have a lot of MBL weapons just not leveled.

Those are both Character Atk, so they're not very good once you get your Grids going.

Your Water team seems extremely Burst heavy, but without Herc or Cthulhu, you're not going to get to -50% Def. But if you want to use Herc, you'll need Snow Raphael for B debuff. Still, the team should work fairly well even as-is.

With Thanatos and SSR Amon, your Dark team should be quite well off offensively. Beelz is always a welcome addition to the team. It would be nice to have some defensive tools, but both Hades and Pluto have already been released so... good luck with that, I guess.

As for saving Jewels, it doesn't seem like there's anything of particular interest for you in the near future except maybe Chemobog to further up the damage output of your Dark team. If you're interesting in having a look, the encyclopedia in Sanahtlig's toolbox gives you a quick peek on all the upcoming SSRs. It's not like you'll ever find what you're looking for with Jewels even if you save them up though, so eh

Some months later, Thanatos and Amon U wouldn't be compatible with each other since Amon's frame changes to C frame
but then again that's gonna be awhile before it comes to the nutaku version

For defensive options you can always go Joan + BP or Sniper shot or VoF (to ensure debuffs hit and if you're gonna bring Lu Bu instead)

So maybe something like

1. Joan/Sniper shot + Thanatos + Amon + Beelzebub + (anyone you want, maybe a damage dealer like Rangda or another buffer like Bastet) + 2 himes of your choice in the backline

or
2. Joan/BP or VoF + Thanatos + Amon + Beelzebub + Lu Bu +2 himes of your choice in the backline

but yeah like I said, you're probably gonna have to reorganize some time later

How do people even get so many/specific SSRs anyway? I mean I haven't been playing for that long so I know I missed out on a lot due to lower initial pool to draw from, but outside of spending a lot of money (SSR kami/Eido draw every time it's up) I don't see how anyone could get such perfect comps for multiple elements. I mean I know miracle tickets exist, but to my knowledge only one of those have been offered so far. And with being a grad student who's trying to have a social life, the amount of extra spending money to my name is rather small so pumping hundreds of dollars into this is not happening. That being said though, if/when a miracle ticket becomes available again, is there any one kamihime jumping out to you that's a must have given what I currently own? Either to replace someone in my water comp or dark/wind that will significantly (as in massive, not just kinda helps) improve any comp?

@BlazeAlter thanks for the info I'll keep an eye out for that.

two MT thus far. and luck, ofc

The only way is whaling.

This forum focuses too much on absolutely perfect teams... but uh, I shouldn't be the one saying that. I'm extremely guilty of that myself!

Hundreds? Considering how each, random SSR Hime will cost you 200 bucks on average, try thousands. Probably tens of thousands for perfect teams in each element.

That should be soon, but until we know exactly what Hime are in it, it's too difficult to say.

We'll have a thread for it once Nutaku releases the next one, we'll see then.

Oh didn't even know MT were restrictive to a set of himes. Interesting.

Those people you're referring to... well they either have many SSRs because they whaled, or they got lucky with their jewel draws.. RNG is a big troll sometimes (to the point where one can spend 30k jewels and get absolutely no SSR, or something like a random person getting a 100% eido or core SSR hime with just a premium gacha ticket)

The next miracle ticket is probably gonna be on late july or early august
If you decided to go improve dark with that ticket, Pluto is a good kamihime to look out for, because not only does she give you great buffs (20% atk + 30% dark atk + 30% dmg cut/20% Light RST), she's also good DPS (can double/triple attack almost every turn if you have enough blocks stored, and she uses all those blocks up when she bursts to deal even larger damage)
Another one would be... Satan probably, cuz she'll get her awakening some time in August, and some people prefer using her over Amon Unleashed and she would go well with Thanatos since they have different frames for their def downs (means you wouldn't need to reorganize team in the future), plus she has orb reduction and high DATA rate i think (I don't really have her lol)
and I can't really recommend Hades since you would already be using Joan, and that's about all I can recommend for dark I think... since Chernobog nor Berith wouldn't be in 3rd miracle ticket anyway
edit: Forgot about my own queen, Osiris
Get her if you need a healer that doesn't die easily and if you want to burst early

its restricted to non limited kamihimes, and himes that were only released before it
like how Thanatos wasn't available during the 2nd MT because she was released a week later after the MT was
