I 100% did read it, and then I reread it after your post, and BOTH times I came to the same conclusion...you said to save up to 50SC first THEN to read the guide you linked and well..

The plan you linked does NOT say to get box expansion first. That guide says (tl:dr style) 20-25 first rolls, save 100 for events/second rolls, THEN the excess over 100 goes to boxes (admittedly mentioning you can skip the middle part, but that still delays buying boxes by 25 SC or 50 SC if I followed your advice and didn't read it until then). At least for me that is a huge difference.

So, again thank you for the guide, but it's a bit rude to tell me I didn't read something that I did even after I told you I did.

BTW please don't take this as me being hostile just not a fan of being called a liar. I still really appreciate all the help.

Of course as has been mentioned around Castle Retake is when you will normally be forced to CC units.

3. I personally have not used fairies to level any of my units outside of what I mentioned. Haven't gotten everything I have to 50CC50/50 yet..

9. Yeah it is for later after you have your core. Granted I'd probably have around 2000%+ if I didn't raise girls affection simply to do that.. Guess it is a benefit of being here from day one.

10. It is for the benefit of your own level and your units level as well as gold to level said units. Doing something like Return to Ruins will eat up your gold like nothing else despite level units faster.

12. All the male only maps can be beaten with extremely low level iron units from what I remember doing. They aren't at all hard. Only think I needed chrristopher for Mens Battle 3. Even then I never leveled anything.

2. Fair enough. Thanks!

3. Save fairies. Check.

9. Thank you for clarifying. Seems like a solid plan.

10. I will take this as don't stall out to long on the road from Pastoral Gate to Tower Overwatch, and to that I say I will do my best.

12. Thanks for the heads up. I wasn't exactly planing on "leveling" those units, more so just holding on to, and cost reducing, them. That would give me some 10-15's to use for the missions. Is that reasonable?

BTW I would really like to thank you again for all the help!

blame lafate then, since he didnt specifically mention box expansion first. but after some time I came to the conclusion as to how to use my SCs:
50 SC -> roll for early unit. save up to 50 (because I dont use as many and I dont buffer as much as lafate), then I completely ignore summons until I have max box expansion (because of stampcard, it's now a good idea to save up to 50, then split between bursting for box slots and for event expenditure), save up to 50 again and throw 30 for 2nd barracks and rest on events, and then the rest is free-for-all.

I'm already pretty far in on spending 1 SC at a time on box expansions, but as soon as I'm done I will save to 50 to burst spend for stamp card(second barracks and event) and take it from there. Thanks!

Well it has been a week since my last post so I though I would give you guys a bit of an update on where I am. I wanted to do this both to make sure I'm progressing at a reasonable rate, and to get any remaining advice you guys are willing to share.

I guess I will start with what I have completed, and follow with what my plans are (so you guys can keep me on the right path).

Progress

Strategy Lesson Quest: Complete
Urgent Mission Drill: Complete
Story: Every 3* up to "Tower Overwatch" except Return to Ruins (Using to farm levels and fodder)
Challenges: Farming "A Gigantic Enemy" for Gold Spirits (All 3*ed except Mens/Womens Battle up to that point)
Daily: Failed Thursdays decided to put off a week, but completed easy and normal for Monday and Tuesday.

Plans

Story: I want to push on to "Castle Retake" once I have a few 50cc30ish units (does that seem right?).
Challenges: I want to push on to "Phalax 2" at a similar time (I read I will need a witch CCed does that sound about right?)'
Daily: Attempting easy and normal dailies this week while I gauge what I will need for the hard monday and thursday dailies (advice welcome).

Lastly, I would like to update you guys on my current "army", my current resources, and my plans for both.

Army

->Open Spoiler<-

As well as a mincosted Russell, Wilfred, and Bergan

Resources

About 200k gold

2 Spirit of Iron
3 Spirit of Copper
31 Spirit of Silver
26 Spirit of Gold
2 Spirit of Black
2 Spirit of Rainbow (any advice on who to use this on?)

2 Platinum Armor (level up rewards)

CC Fodder

->Open Spoiler<-

Gifts

16 Ruby
36 Crystal
137 Bouquet

Plans

I figured I would use the Plat Armors on my top priority CC's to get from 40-50 (advice welcome) and use the reserve of gifts to rush 100 affection on them. As for the rest of the spirits, and gifts, I'm open to advice, but for now I was gonna use spirits to get units from 40-50 for CCing while holding 3-5 of each in reserve and probably just using gifts on CCed units.

I'm unsure about CCing priority right now only because I can't quite farm platinum spirits which leaves me unsure about what to do. Also, I don't really know how valuable Marr and/or Sasha are. I have been unsure when to use Marr over Iris/Alissa and so I'm also unsure of their CC priority. Sasha seems strictly better than Valerie, but again no access to plat spirits. Not to mention when I get them I don't know what my plat CC priority should be since I have 4 now instead of the planned 2 (or 3 once I got Spica). Going in my CC priority was...

Silver: Leeanne - Soma/Daniela - Alissa - Valerie >
Gold: Katie - Cloris - Iris >
Platinum: Bashira > Spica > Cypria >

But now I'm thinking about it is more...

Silver: Soma/Daniela - Alissa - Leeanne - Valerie >
Gold: Cloris (for Phalax 2) - Katie - Iris >
Platinum: ??? right no clue at this point.

Also, it seems important to combine these for more of a single priority list since I can do both Silver and Gold units right now. Maybe something like...

Teir 1: Cloris - Katie - Iris With either Soma or Daniela before, or after if you guy think that is better? (Also, which is really the right choice Soma or Daniela? Visually I like Soma way better, but if Daniela is way better I would settle.)
Teir 2: Leeanne - Alissa - Valerie
Teir 3: Elaine - Calliope > 2nd Leeanne - Phyllis - Eunice

I took the time to see what units I already have the CC fodder for and well it seems silver archers is the big issue I have 4 but I need 9 for Bashira (3) - Soma/Daniela (1) - Spica (3) - Marr (1) - Cypria (1). Also, I'm not sure if after using these 4, for let's say Soma/Daniela and Bashira, I should save until I have 3 for Spica OR if I should CC Marr and/or Cypria before saving for Spica?

Cloris, Kaite, Iris, Alissa, Vallerie, Elaine, Calliope, Phyllis, and Eunice I have the CC fodder for already, BUT CCing Vallerie will delay Sash.

The first Leeanne can be CCed with the third one I get from 3*ing "Castle Retake" once I get to that point, and the second one is a mystery since I have no more guaranteed Heavies.

That basically covers everything.

Well, it looks like I created another wall of text sorry.

TL;DR Update of progress and plan. Advice wanted.

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.

actually you should already rush to 1* skip castle retake by this point because leveling every unit (when you don't use them was somewhat pointless, but nvm. I guess I should edit my guide again. my fault, sorry.)

using EthEternal videos, you can actually 1* skip the necessary maps and just rush to phalanx 2 map which drops affection items + gold + plat fairies. and yes you probably need a cc'd witch.

as for marr, I'd say she's a bit hard to use since pre-AW and at lower levels, her heal will pretty much be lower than a healers. although her heal might well be better than a healers in poison maps.

as I've mentioned in my guide, soma vs daniela is a very minor thing. daniela has a better skill and higher base attack, but loses out on base 30% affection so actually spending effort to level her up would be a chore. but generally, the difference is negligible since you'll want to be using bashira and spica more often then these 2 temporary archers. and yes, silver archers are always the issue early game, since the game only gives you enough silver archers to cc bashira and 1 silver archer with iirc.

cypria is seriously a low priority unit aside from getting her to 250 atk to 1* skip castle retake.

as for cc'ing, there's no real need to rush everyone to cc together or leveling them all to 50 the way you did it to 35. what you actually needed to was to level units up 1 by 1 and get to the more efficient farming maps (fiery oasis 30 charisma map, and so on) while leveling whatever units you might need to use just enough to get past whatever map you were struggling with.

Have to agree with Sora here. I wasted a ton of time trying to level up everyone in groups and man it put me way behind. Focus on Katie first and then your HAT. Which in your case is Iris, Bashira, Leanne. Then after that I would get Elaine, Cloris, Val, and Soma up next. From there get a second healer, witch up and then a 2nd tank. That should give you a good base and you can then mix and match from there.

Also no need to save affection items. Use them on Katie, Iris, Bashira, and Leanne. Even getting them to 50% affection before cc helps a ton.
