Thread: How important is it to have a mono-element team? (noob questions)

Oh boy, that's one long post. Let's go in order then.

1. This game is all about stacking bonuses (weapon grid, eidolons) to boost one element. To show you example: On dark disaster raid my wind kamihime from wind team (garuda 40%, friend garuda 35% and bonus from weapons grid ~22%) were doing 12-13k dmg while brynhildr who is just sticking in as healing support was doing 5-6k. There also is difference between elemental bonus and character bonus on Eidolons. Elemental bonus is better than character bonus, if bonus from your weapon grid is more than 40%. Because they are counted differently.

So if you can assemble one element team, then you should do so. If not then at least go for dual elemental team (like fire/dark, wind/water, that eidolons support)

2. Sol can go anywhere, she is great. I was calling my water team a "team" when I had only 3 water kami's... soooo... 3 of single element?
Since you have more than that I see no reason why not to go with fire team. Unless your fire SR and R really suck, then I would consider dual element or something else.

3. Defensive and offensive weapons? No idea, unless it's referring to weapon skills, which brings us to
3a. How much they count? Lvl 1 R = 0,5%; lvl 1 SR = 3,5%; lvl 1 SSR = 6,5%. Each skill level is 0,5%, which means that Rare max out on 10%, SR on 13% and SSR on 16%.
Weapon skill are called x assault and x defender. X being their elemental name which also takes their rarity into account.

4. Luck. Luck and money, or only money if you have it more than you will ever need and want to use on something stupid. That's basically how you get SSR kamihime.
There are sometimes things like guaranteed SSR gacha once per account (so far was only one, no idea if they will reset it like premium half price 10 draw(they will probably do it)) plus there might be something like "choose your SSR" ticket, no idea though if game will last that long but looking on how it fares so far I would say that chances are high that it will.

5. The advent events do return, Apocalypse will soon be returning if they didn't change anything. But as far as I know raid events don't return. So Garuda and Apocalypse? Yeah, they will return. Jorm? Probably not.
