Thread: Ares vs Azazel and some varied thoughts

I found it funny when I read the lack of enthusiasm people here had with the Yatagarasu reprint, while I was pretty excited to at last have a Fire event. Logical, as it was a second reprint, but funny none the less.

My weapon selection for fire is passable. Not great, but I can work with things like the fire from Koihime. The lack of good SSR weapons is a problem. I look the event SSR weapons I have for water and light...

The wait for the Ares Awakening seems sooooo long. Specially with Thor looking me with puppy eyes saying "awake me, plis".

Edit: It depends what is "recently". I began just on time for Halloween, and was too newbie to Wrath. I think I really began on the worst possible moment to main fire.

People didn't care for Yata event because many already got everything of value. This is the third time we've had the event and they didn't restock anything.

Starting right now is the worst possible time for fire.

Oh dear. Reading this makes me kinda sad xD

Just started and fire is my main team

3 months without a fire event, in case you were wondering. If you haven't progressed too late/ don't have a particularly good fire account/ don't have Belial, this is quite a good time to bail while you can.

Having both Ares and Azazel, I can say that I heavily rate Azazel. She's an incredibly powerful kamihime to have if you have the right support for her and fortunately that comes in the form of one of the "must-haves" for any wind team; Awakened Gaia. I do admit she is very hard to keep alive while leveling up since she doesn't get her regen/life drain skill til I think 55? But when she gets to max and with a decent skills rotation between her heal buff and Awakened Gaia's regen she's barely takes any damage from her Overheat DoT and gets amazing benefits that last a very long time for buffs of that kind and effectivity.
I know she doesn't have one as of yet, but I can't wait to get her Awakened form. She's a currently one of my favourite kamihime that I have just in terms of raw power she brings to a more all-rounder type element group but also in her design too.

Fortunately or unfortunately then, I'd stick to that account. Farm up them disaster SR assaults, you're gonna need all the firepower (pun not intended) you can get until the fire events roll in.

The good news is, after the dry period there will be three Fire events in less than two months.

... the bad news is, after that there are many months of no Fire events again...

err..not that long, she'll get awakened somewhere in april (20something) so..about 1 month and 2 weeks or so

Upgrades in KamiPro are much more incremental than players tend to realize. If you take away accessories (which were a new feature added; diminishing returns didn't apply) and the Miracle ticket, my account hasn't grown all that much stronger in the past 6 months. SSR weapons don't make that big a difference (except vs. an R as a primary weapon), especially individually. Primary eidolon DOES matter; if you're relying on Yatagarasu, you're potentially losing out on up to 23% damage. That approaches the benefit a typical player would get from a +100% eidolon.
