Thread: So many units, so little fodder... (advice request)

To be fair, this may be because the best one I have leveled is Cloris, and in my experience she's not particularly impressive in terms of DPS, and I only use her on those maps in which she's used in the vid guides. If anyone's going to be a decent witch, though, it'd be Despera. Also, I never noticed Affection increased her range, which is interesting. I'm a sucker for extra range so that matters to me.

Besides, no point in discharging anyone for Rainbow Crystals unless I have enough units for the rest of the 600...

Like Kayfabe said, Cloris is a really bad example of witch because she's not CR-capable without the whaling-reward gold Bond Fairy or Time Fairy, both of which have better units to use them on. On top of that, without maxed skill she's flat-out inferior to Yuyu. Better witches are Yuyu, Belinda, Adele and Despara. Yuyu is the cheapest (AW Yuyu is same cost as silver Calliope but hits harder and faster with more range), Belinda is a stronger but more expensive Yuyu that is an event unit, Adele buffs all team members' HP by 10% after AW and has Attack 4 like Despara (just doesn't have the 1-sec initial) and Despara is your go-to early magic damage monster with the added benefit of slow effect.

If Cloris is who you think of when you think of the class, it's natural to be turned off, but there are numerous uses for the better witches and they're a very reliable class in many cases. Adele and Despara are on my deployment team 90% of the time (Adele is pretty much 100% due to her team buff). Yuyu has since become much more situational.

truth is that yuyu is not that much worse then belinda actually because she has increased damage for being an elf and increase attack speed as well.


Actually the main difference comes for the AW passives , since belinda will have 7% more damage over yuyu. Excluding that,at max level , belinda hits for 533 , while yuyu at max hits for 535


Ofc with 7% damage increase belinda will have higher dps , but the difference is not that high (at most under 50 damage)

Meh, I personally think of Yuyu as a cheaper Belinda (due to AW -1 and gold vs. plat) without the Witch buff. I don't use either much, though, due to having AW Adele and Despara (I used all 4 on War of Magic though, that map that used to be a complete nightmare was cakewalk lol). Having AW Belinda on the team if you use those two though is great (which means Yuyu becomes MUCH more situational since you already have a Range Up witch in team), and since I use both for early magic damage frequently on some maps, having their attack buffed (especially Despara since you can essentially think of her as having skill on from the get-go; 7% buff receives the 1.9 multiplier for her so her attack with Belinda and skill is over double her stats page attack, even more so with AW Aria/Uzume and Prince around)

technically belinda is cheaper (assuming u maxed cr-ed her during event) unless u have a cr yuyu (not that easy to cr since premium)
That being said yuyu can be buffed by a number of units which is kinda cool. She gets belinda's buffs if in the same party. She also gets sherry's and even olivie's buff.

Good point to make. If you have AW Sherry and Olivie, then Yuyu may outclass Belinda in performance (since if both are deployed Yuyu is getting buff too) since Belinda gets neither buff. Buffs like Uzume, Aria and Prince don't count since both get those.

Side Note: My Yuyu min-costed ages ago, so I tend to forget her original cost is 14 (13 after AW), because mine is at 10 lol.
