I know I love my friends with Anzu and/or Sleipner. Should I switch over to T-Bird? I have no Light so I use both as primaries anyway its just a matter of what order I put them in. (permanent Wind, Water, Fire teams, a grinding/training team w/Anzu, and light/dark/thunder I build and dismantle as needed).

As a side note; I made a killing during the Icarus wind event, (double my normal money). I assumed it was because of MLB Crom Crunch, char atk and hp, because she's not common anymore but I also have echidna up as my dark, so that might have been the reason.
1. Anzu's effect is barely above placebo. It is probably more than 0, but not big enough for 99% of vets to bother (or even notice). I would advise against it, for what I am about to say next (Sleipnir is ok for now, but you'll want an ele one somewhere down the line):

2. Don't think of your support eido grid as a gem income; it is pocket change next to gem guerilla quests (which you should be spamming with HE, depending on your HE stock). Instead, think of it as capital for attracting (and keeping) strong friends. At low ranks, 40/20 is probably the best eido since people have low hp and near nonexistant grids. At high ranks, and especially among the more experienced crowd, ele eidos completely take over. Some of the most competitive people go through their lists and religiously kick anyone running a character atk eido. This shouldn't be a worry for you right now, just know it somewhere down the line (and when you reach that point, your grid is probably strong enough that you'd prefer ele eido too).
