No need to be salty, buddy.
And yeah pretty much I used to run Ama on everything that lacked B Frames before unlocking D'Art (Except Thunder)

Alright let me make things clear with a little quote:

But that's just personal, you need to make up for what your team lacks with your Soul and EX Skill

Did I ever recommended something on him? All I said was that you have to know what your team lacks and make up for it.
He didn't disclosed his main team but he's lacking Heals in thunder (Pretty standard I'd say) and B Frames in Water and Light; he could really use Sniper Shot on his Mordred to make up for this but I never went out of my way to even suggest a Soul on him, it isn't very difficult, is it?

There was no salt so I have no idea why you're assuming that. And yes, you did recommend him something, your 'personal' order. Please don't try to pretend it isn't. If it wasn't a recommendation, then there was absolutely no reason for you to post it, but you did, because it was a suggestion; a recommendation.

Definitely taking this out of proportion.

Perhaps there wasn't there but there definitely is now.
¿We don't know how to read here, do we?
Ahem What I DID recommend was for him to cover his personal weakness' with his Soul, the line you quoted from me is out of context without the full sentence but then again, we could do with Elementary English lessons over here...
Regardless, what am I doing with my life? Explaining a fully grown adult a simple reply in a game forum.

Thunder teams can't afford to run Sniper Shot on Mordred, or a healer really. They need to have both Ambush AND a B-type Def Down - this means either Mordred with Ambush, Gawain with Sniper Shot or Dartagnan with Ambush. With the exception of Accessory quests - where the player needs to be old enough to make their own calls - Thunder teams need to run a "kill it before it kills you" build.

There's only two exceptions to this, really. One, Tyr. Literally the only Thunder Hime with a Def debuff, allowing you more freedom with your Soul. Two, Sol. Other healers probably won't cut it, as the damage decrease just isn't worth the heals. Sol however, allows you to reach higher survival ability due to cutting damage while also healing it.

In other words, I do find your "not recommendation opinion" horrendously misguided. Please don't point new players towards Andromeda until they cover the basic Soul bases. There are exceptions to this such as somebody rerolling (Dark/Fire) Amaterasu+Ryu-Oh, but even when this happens you should properly explain it so that later, some other newbie wouldn't get the idea of "oh going for Andromeda early is a good idea!11"

But hey man, that's just my opinion. It's not like I'm recommending anything to you.

I used to run Andromeda in my first few months of play. But I had all my debuffs covered with Water SRs and a lot of bosses seemed to have negligible debuff resistance back then (and the game was just easier in general--I don't think I even lost a battle until Ixion Ragnarok). Also, literally anything was an improvement over Siegfried, my first tier 3 Soul. I picked up Mordred to do Ixion, and have rarely used other Souls since.
