Thanks Slashley!
Hey everyone, its me again, finally rolled 2 SSR kamihime of same element!!! They are Athena and Tyr. Just wondering if i should keep this? Thx!
The upside is, Athena is basically the best Hime in the game against Water. Unfortunately, she's not much good elsewhere, which doesn't exactly make her a newbie friendly Hime. Tyr is generally good, though nothing amazing until her rebalance which should be soon enough. Even then, that only applies to her Awakened form and it'll take you months to get the required materials for that.
The downside is, no 100% Eidolon means no good Friends. One of those gets you access to high level players from the start, which means that your support Eidolons would always be good.
Personally, I'd keep rerolling for a 100% Eidolon, but it is up to you.
I wouldn't go with Athena/Tyr either, mainly because thunder is pretty unfriendly for a pure f2p. If you want to go with thunder, you really need at least either Kirin (100% eidolon) or thunder aphrodite (while she's still available) to make up the difference. Thunder is especially bad to start because you're going to have a hard time grabbing a flb Medjed if you're just starting now (and there won't be another decent one for a LONG time - you'd most likely have to buy one with eidolon orbs), and already missed the first thunder UE with flb weapons. So it'll also be hard to get a good grid together to make up for being a f2p. All in all, just a tough slog ahead, not recommended.
Looking at the schedule of events coming up, starting up with wind is still viable but difficult (need to get into a decent union asap), while fire is ideal (has time to start up, with typhoon reprint and wrath UE coming), while light and dark are decent because they get to doubledip on greed UEs.
/just my 2 cents
Thanks for replying and explaining this to me! I've finally created an account lol, and so i guess rolling Thor, Gaia, and the eidolon thunderbird isnt good?
So after a great deal of rerolling, I finally got myself a 100%. I ended up with several good quality SSR picks on other accounts. Would anybody be interested in taking the accounts? I have an account with Amterarasu (The good fire one, according to the guide?) and Cthulhu (the good water one) on the same account, one with two Light SSR (I forget who), one with Amterasu (The fire one) along with an SR Fire or two, and one with the 100% Thunder (which apparently is crap for free players, which I am).
I also have one with two good Dark SSR's, but I think I'm going to keep that one in case I want an alt account - or maybe the Thunder Eidolon one..we'll see.
If you're interested in any of them, let me know!
