Thread: Should I start all over again?

Element balance has shifted over the past month. On one hand, the ATK debuff cap nerf has made Sol somewhat less useful in off-element teams (but still important if she's the only healer kamihime available to you). It's also increased the importance of spike damage to avoid rather than facetank punishing Rage Overdrives. On the other hand, Light is catching up to other elements in terms of growth potential, with Light Tsukuyomi soon to be available with Miracle tickets, and SSR Artemis on the distant horizon. Water started with a monopoly on strong SSRs, with 2 available for the first Miracle ticket (including the all-important Cthulhu), and this lead is beginning to subside.

Further balance shifts may also be impending, unique to the Nutaku version. This is purely my speculation, but I suspect Mars and SSR Cybele could be available with the next Miracle ticket, based on how the first Miracle ticket was handled. These characters, grabbed early, could drastically boost the power of their respective elements.

In short, in the age of Miracle tickets and ATK debuff nerfs Sol doesn't get the unqualified recommendation she used to--but her potential to found a Light team is useful in itself. Starting with one of the top-priority core SSRs for their respective elements is equally viable, and starting with a +100% eidolon is the best option of all.

Of course, if you roll Sol + a core SSR for another element, you get the best of both worlds. That requires an ungodly number of rerolls though. So yes, I'd stick with the Sol + Hades account. You can pick up Satan, SSR Amon, or Thanatos with the next Miracle ticket and make a very nice Dark team with that. Michael is good for a Light Burst build, but she won't be much use without both Sol and Tsukuyomi. In the meantime you'll be stuck with an incomplete build that won't be very effective, especially without Diana.
