Thread: Help Request: Team

thank you a lot for your detailed answer! It helps me a lot, i will keep this updated as soon as i have noticable progress, I do not mind having 2x the same unit so i'll go for cc'ing both Iris since I'd rather have 2 good gold healers than 1 good gold + 1 silver. for Sophie i'll possibly wait with er. It is fairly sad that i can not use Imelia, i like her because of her skill, she is the only bandit who actually buffs her defense and after her ability she can simply be healed up again. What do you think about Ertel? I CC'd her and i really like the "Block 3 but able to heal too" but it seems that she isn't tanky enough to be used as a 2nd line tank. (I thought i can put her beind a tank for example to stop everything that is not blocked by the tank and if not blocking healing the tank in front of it).

actually i'd wait on sophie as well. She has monster stats (all angels have naturally high stats) , but she is used different then a normal duelist.
Also , i liked imelia for the smae reason as you. She's got good offense ,AND defense on top of having a big hp pool because she's a bandit. The fact is , her stats are still there , if you don't care about the cost. She is still a strong unit , if you want to invest in her skill , and don't care about her cost. And while there are maps were cost doesn't matter , there are others were it does. Having her non cr-ed makes her a bit more situational for you to use her , then for us , but other then that , as i said , her stats are still good. The problem would be raising her skill , since you would have to invest rainbows in her , and i for 1 wouldn't. But that's your choice again.


There is also a possibility of revival events , but hers would be in the far future if we actually ever get revivals...


As for ertel , i also like the concept of her , but IMO she looks the type of silver that would be a awhole lot better at max skill level and min cost , and while i got a cc50 one myself , i'm not ready to start min costing a low priority silver yet. But she seems rather usefull. I'd love other units of her class in higher rarity actually

yeah I agree it feels rather weak to have ertel to be silver ... maybe one day we'll get a plat of her class :3 for Imelia i guess i'll just keep her for now like she is, if i in some months have enough stuff left and do not know what to do i can still level her up (ignoring her CR and skills). so right now i focus on getting the crystals (when the daily is on), besides that i guess i level up both my archers to level 50 with my charisma also my gold tank (forgot her name) and I like how monica only costs 10 unit points to use (minimum cost woop woop), her skill is 4/5 tho, will definitly level her up and possibly cc her too? also I want to level up marius and cc him.

EDIT: what would you suggest as a set up for me with my units on those 15 slots? which once would be swicharounds? what should I aim for? for now i got this (after our talk):
http://puu.sh/p3SQx/eb56619ee0.jpg (besides that i got to possibly (sadly) replace ertel)

not a bad setup , but u don't relaly need both bernice and leanne at the same time in general , so u can switch bernice for now (leanne after u level bernice up) and get more duelists in there. I'd suggest , u use lyla. She is 1 of the highest dps duelists avaible to us atm. She is still a good duelist. Actually , i'd leave julien out as well , unless u specifically need a 2nd soldier for said map , and i'd place sophie in , since she's an awsome lightning rod (btw , u can use her for Imortal beast after u leve her up and your healers a bit) , and u have to learn how to use her eventually.

Other then that , looks like a pretty decent lineup

got it :3 http://puu.sh/p3TSs/5ec190c086.jpg thank you so much for helping me out! I'll keep working and updating this step by step when i have mention worthy progress, not sure if i want to keep farming for the dancer (for cost reduce, skill up and stuff) i like the idea of a dancer but her range seems to be fairly small

EDIT: now i got to wait for my charisma... *sigh* maybe i should play a 2nd account but... starting without any good units all over again, doesn't sound too much fun...

to be fair cypria is not actually a priority either. Most of us kinda ignored her , but after AW and SAW she becomes a good dodge tank , but untill then , most people use either valks/pricesses/bandits as duelists. Most of us didn't raised her because shes kinda expensive to cc (3 silvers) , but since it's there , u could use it now. You might want to replace her with another unit in the future

I might even use a claduia , even at max cost over cypria if i were u , assuming u lack other princess. She still has a good skill for tanking liches/mages and for dealing with high armor (and mr stuff) even if u didn't leveled her skill much. She still gains mr and true damage even if her booster isn't that big

yeah i used both of them before situational.. i just can not figure out what to actually use as a 15 unit team, i feel like it would be so much easier if we could use 20 in there <.< in the end harder maps require more removing/replacing and i was quite some times at the point where i could need more than 15 units in a map lol, maybe my units were just too weak tho

I'll just make it quick for your short/mid-term goals:
- level Bashira and Iris some more (to around CC40-50ish)
- raise another healer, Bernice, Yuyu, Marius, Khuri
- buy Spica ASAP and raise her
- raise some duelists: Lyla is the obvious choice, I suggest Claudia as well since she's a princess
- raise a third healer at some point

When you did all of this you will have a solid core team that will allow you to do well in most events. Then you can start refining your team by leveling more niche/situational units and AW some units.

Most units were already covered by lolix, but just a quick note about Khuri: She's one of the most useful silvers in the game. It should be noted though that Nutaku is/was supposed to get a vampire hunter event, so you might want to hold off leveling her for now.

Sophie is amazing, but as an angel she is quite reliant on her skill. She has the same skill as the silver angel. You can trade a valkyrie and 100k gold for a silver angel in the trading post, so you could do that later on when you saved up some gold to save some rainbow fairies.

This is a common misconception among new players. Fact of the matter is you will have way more than 15 usable units in no time and you will have to adapt your team depending on the missions, so you shouldn't worry too much about figuring out your "main team" or whatever.

Grats on mincosting her, but unfortunately Monica's skill changes when you CC her. Skills that change upon CC reset to 1/5. For units with changing skills it's advisable to CC them at level 30 before feeding them to a CC'd main unit. Not the biggest deal, just something to keep in mind for the future.
