Try Expert difficulty at 16k attack power.

Not too choosy over standard and expert



since my team is weak, sometimes, I need a jewel for expert mode or sometimes, I win w.o a jewel barely

I've been thinking about eidolon vs bow, and which I would max limit break if I could... I am thinking it is more important to limit break the bow than is it the eidolon. You eventually need 60 element specific weapons, and only 36 eidolons. But do you even need 36? Only one eidolon skill applies to the team, right? So it seems in the long game you only need one perfect eidolon in each element, or 6 total. Phoenix isn't perfect...

Is the decision really that easy? Always max the weapon?

From my perspective, the stats on the Eidolon are more important.

I don't run a team with Light or Thunder, so it's not that I'd need her for my "main" slot. But a fully uncapped SSR Eidolon in the sub slots is going to give a lot more stats than the alternative, as otherwise you're just using material exchange Eidolons or praying to the jewel gacha every few weeks.

Comparatively, for weapons I can easily farm the Disasters every single day until I have a proper set for my team. They aren't endgame weapons, but we're not anywhere near endgame content. However, between now and then they'll keep my squad more than competitive.

Unless one has a Light-based squad or they plan to use the Bow-based Soul (when it comes out), I don't see the point in going Weapon over Eidolon.

The difference isn't really health, just damage. If you have a way to avoid/heal around it or you can just zerg through her it shouldn't be a problem at all.

My team with 10k Attack was doing Standard originally because I assumed I couldn't do Expert yet, then I just had extra stamina to blow before a level up and I went for it. I lost most of my team, but it wasn't especially worrisome at any given point. I just blew all my summons at every opportunity and kept a close eye on my skill rotations and it went fine.

I am well on my way to 6 squads, one of each element. My best KHs are Artemis and Beelzebub right now, so the bows are going in every squad.

Also, it's 6x6 eidolons because of the 10% stat bonus for a kamihime matching elements with the eidolon.

That's funny, I had the exact same two one my first account. I actually have gotten Artemis three separate times on that one, literally 1 every single time I pull the jewel gacha.

Beelzebub's a beast though ya, she makes pretty much any team great. One tip that I completely spaced on until someone here pointed it out (you may know this already) the Defense Down status is dispellable with status removal. So if you cast Brynhildr's status block skill before it or any status removal skill after, you can keep the Attack Up without the downside. Changed my life, haha.

Don't have any dispels except for Amon's weird Kiss that doesn't work. I do substitute out Beelzubub's ATK up with Arthur's, and make sure I am running double Apocalypse. Those 2 rounds remove about 60% of Phoenix's life.

Oh, Amon's skill is translated/described inaccurately. It blocks 1 negative status effect from landing, not remove a pre-existing one. So if you use Devil's Kiss first, it'll then block the defense debuff from King of Flies' Dignity.

Yeah, I'm a dummy. I meant to say Amon instead of Brynhidlr, they're both maids so I forget which one I'm thinking of sometimes, haha.
