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
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
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.
