Thread: Which Bandit Should I level First?

Hi all,

I have been meaning to level up one of my Bandits for awhile now but have been to busy leveling more important units first. I am leveling Calliope up at the moment and really only have enough time to level on more unit beside her for this new event, which is going to be one of my Bandits. I am undecided on who I should level though, so I am turning to the community for your wealth of knowledge.

Now first off this Bandit I need to use has to be able to withstand a hit from one of the armored calvary in this weeks event G mission (Dance of Shadows G), which in a guide I watched they used Mortimer (Silver Unit) who would cost less than my other two platinum Bandits. I am not sure if I should try to level Bergan (Bronze Unit) as he may not level enough to with stand that hit and may be a waste of time for now.

My other two options are Princess Bandit Imelia (Platinum Event Unit) or Lyla (Platinum Unit).

Now I will eventually level all of them up but I am going to level one for this event and really only have time to do one right now. I was thinking on leveling Mortimer due to he would be easier to level and his low cost would help in the event. But would I benefit more from leveling one of my platinum units, I can work with their higher cost and feel I may get more out of them for other events.

I guess I could say the same as Mortimer due to him being also Male I can use him in the male only missions.

Edit: I also forgot to mention I have Eunice (Silver Unit)

What do you guys think?

Don't think a bronze Bandit will do you all that much good.

If you have MANY Eunice's you could level one up and cost reduce him a couple of times so that he's your emergency low cost high HP damage sponge.

However, I would work on Imelia, That is assuming that she is the same cost (or lower) than your Lyla... They're generally comparable units, but Imelia has a bit better skill and her awakening gives her 10% more HP (as well as other bandits on your team). Did you manage to cost reduce / skill up her at all? Lyla is by no means a bad unit, but Imelia certainly replaced her in my roster...

Though again, I don't know how good a quality Imelia you managed to snag (mine is min-cost / max skill so it was a no brainer for me). Lyla is by no means a bad Bandit, very good offensive bandit for sure, but Imelia just outshines her that little bit due mostly to her skill and awakening passive.

as sakob said , it depends a lot on how much u cr-ed Imelia , since she actually tanks , compared to lyla. That being said , lyla is 1of the highest dps duelist in the game , so shes also worth leveling. She will simply outkill what she can't tank. So , if your imelia is at least at cr2 , i'd prob go for it , if not , lyla.

Wouldn't bother with bronze bandits.

Sadly I only have one Eunice, Can't remember what I did with the other ones. Though I do have two other mortimer's.

With Imelia I managed to Cost reduce her to the same cost as Lyla, was still building my team during that event so I was working a fine line between the event and leveling units thus why I only got her down -2 points. I got 300 Souls during the event so got her skill to 4/10 and -2 cost reduction.

So by the sounds of it my Imelia and Lyla are pretty much head to head in terms of stats but seeing as I have a head start with Imelia in terms of her skill and she will be more of a benefit due to that skill she would be my best option.

I will level her then and when I get around to it, I will work on either Mortimer or Eunice. Thanks for your input!

Yeah I only managed to CR her to the same cost as Lyla and at the moment guess I would be seeking a Tank rather than DPS, though I will be wanting to lvl her up later, just after the better choice one at the moment. Thanks for your input!

don't cr silvers at your level. U will need them as fodder , and they aren't that easy to come. Keep them for later ,and when you have a decent core , then you can start aquiring min costed silvers to mess around with. I did the same mistake at the begining , and trust me...wasting silvers can set you weeks behind...especially if the next event doesn't drop that exact silver class

Yeah it was something I did at the very beginning as well, now I am a little more cautious with my silvers though I do use some for other methods at time but usually only ones I have acquired a fair few of Such as Calliope. Was getting a lot of her during my SC summons. I am using most to CR the Calliope I am training now but trying to save the rest should I need them to CC some of my other units.

watch the video you're using, see if you will be able to have extra UP. if you will, level Imelia. if not, level mortimer/eunice. it's just that simple.
