my struggle with Take / Tish and Shingen is that they each have weaknesses that needs to be covered, making the team vulnerable to in certain situations - necessitating team swaps. this is especially the case with fights that have mechanics - usually some kind of enemy buff that needs to be cleansed or debuffs that need to be blocked. the extra DEF down is helpful too since some of them miss or on CD during multi-stage fights. you also don't depend on another teammate, which makes soloing Dark Cats much more bearable.

I think the absolute beauty of Light is that each Hime excels at what they are built to do. Some can be played multiple ways (such as Takeminakata), but most fit their required role very well. The changing of one or two Himes helps the team switch focus gives you the ability to handle different triggers. They are also an element that can do debuff content and can transcend to non-debuff content by switching Himes on their team as needed. Being able to create a team for a specific boss is a big plus and other elements struggle with that flexibility (like Dark). Others are naturally built slow and struggle to get a full team up to fast burst speed (such as Water). Light may not have the pure awesome fire power of Fire and Thunder, but gets a lot of flexibility for different content.


My current favorite teams are:

General Content: Shingen (Ambush), Shamash, Tishtrya, Sol, Michael
Burst Content: Shingen (Encourage Inspiration), Takeminakata, Tishtrya, Sol, Michael
Debuff Content: Shingen (Ambush), Tsukiyomi, Tishtrya, Sol, Michael
Wing Rag: Joan (Saint Breath), Shamash, Tishtrya, Sol, Michael


As you can see, small changes can truly create a different team and team capability fairly easily in Light. I struggle to get that flexibility in my Dark, Wind, and Water teams (and my Fire and Thunder teams suck balls so eh).

This. I literally find every single light SSR I pull to be useful in at least some situations (except Atum, I never use her, maybe if you have neither Sol nor Tish. Atum gets buffed later though, so maybe I'll use her then.)

Outside of AQ5 (and of course tower), I have yet to find a situation that can't be solved with my light teams.

disclaimer - i do not main light, nor do i main other elements

claimer - if a person (want) to be top on Light, said person needs to manual shit

Have you ever hear about L.Athena, Mike, Sol, Vishnu aab comp ?. With a good grid that comp can take care every solo content. But yeah if you want to MVP a rag with vets, you better manual it, who doesn’t anyway

With a good grid that comp can take care every solo content.

"solo" content is by default "no-contender"

Have you ever hear about L.Athena, Mike, Sol, Vishnu aab comp ?

i am really sorry, but i just play the game)

FYI Atum was just buffed. I have her and can confirm.

Do you use her not that she's buffed? Is she any good?


Dejnov.

I don't have Tish or Sol, so she's the best healer i have. Her heal got buffed to 3247 HP for me (i have one ascension UE staff) and got vigor and and barrier added. Her heal cooldown resets after burst. Also ability damage up and affliction up to her first ability.

She seems pretty decent to me, but again i don't have some of the other good healers to compare.

Abi 1 - added abi damage/abi cap up and affliction rate buff
Abi 2 - buffed heal to 3k cap (still only 20% max HP, so good luck hitting it without accessories), buffed barrier to 3k, added 50% vigor buff
Abi 3 - buffed healed amount to 50% max HP (probably no cap)
On burst effect added - resets cd on abi 2.

Atum is now pretty solid damage buffer (50% vigor buff is no joke).

After some more testing it looks like the healing is a % of max hp, not a flat number anymore. My rough estimates are somewhere around 20% of max hp without ascension.
