    you're missing hte point. We were talking about 3x spirits + level 10 odette as oposed to 3x spirits + level 1 odette + 4 (iron/bronze units).

    The experience difference between the 2 is minimal as i was pointing out. The only thing you're saving is gold at the very best. But then again , how many mini tin cans are you going to use in the first place ?

    Ah, true, forgot to account for the fodder you feed the mini-tin can. So it's most likely a few thousand gold per combine, so I guess it depends on your gold situation. Worst case scenario, you delay leveling up or awakening the unit a day or two due to lack of gold.

    You can debate the value of doing so all day if you like, it doesn't really matter. You're spending the exact same amount of real time by leveling the fodder first anyway so why not? Small things add up over time; whether or not you choose to make use of them for zero opportunity cost is your choice.

    Because the bonus xp gained by that is so insignifiant that it doesn't matter. The value of it is what is actually important....especially for lower levels , with gold troubles.


    Assume gold is not an issue. Do you know how many combos like this you'd have to make just to gain 800 xp ? (the equivalent of 4 level 24 bronze samurais for a single combo)


    16. You would need to do 16 combinations to gain the equivalen of 1 comission sortie drop.


    Realistically , you won't always do that many combinations , and even if you do , the ammount of xp is not high enough to amount to something.



    Which is why the actual gold value is what is important here , because doing it like that you transfer some xp to your main unit while using no extra gold , which depending on the unit level , can be quite high per combination.


    Which is why we were talking about thhe gold value of doing this rather then the xp value

    Usually I farm the event to very last day, but Im gonna stop and grind for Gold Tin Cans. Need lots of $ since I realize awakening a unit ain't cheap LOL

    13 Odettes ain't bad

    Will mincost her. For skill reduction, I won't try it

    She is my 2nd Plat Mage and my first event mage, I think

    Never did take Sasha or Barbastroff for spin

    Nice job on the farming, I am still short by three points unfortunately. I highly recommend using Sasha. Barbastroff is good and is basically a stronger Valerie, but Sasha is great especially with her skill being able to negate enemy damage on surrounding allies. Has saved me a fair bit.

    Think it was discussed either earlier or in another thread but...
    Plat mages:
    Sasha: Highest damage output, skill allows for dodging of physical attacks for nearby enemies (which considering you're usually having mages support a chokepoint, she's likely covering 1-2 blockers and maybe a healer with this)
    Garania: Our signature weapon of MASS destruction, capable of hitting half the map with skill, her damage falls behind a bit but she's a mob-clearer, not a priority-target killer (then, what Plat- mage is?). Also buffs Mage attack and therefore stays competitive to a Sasha or Odette without Garania buff
    Odette: Lower damage output than Sasha but her anti-mage protection covers whole team. Does have +2 cost compared to the others.

    Thus, each Plat mage has their own niche. Anti-Physical Protection, AOE++ and Anti-Mage Protection

    Barbie loses out to Mehlis in damage unless his skill lets him hit more enemies than her skill does (extended range for Mehlis lets her reach more, expanded AOE for Barbie lets him potentially hit more per shot). Assuming equal enemies hit, Mehlis wins and he loses to all the plat mages outside of UP cost.

    After my initial run of awful luck it nearly evened out by the end. 25 runs on the last map for 11 Odettes and 3 Witches.

    Got Odette to -2/+5. A far cry from -5/+16 but +16 is nigh unattainable anyway.

    Bring on the next event!

    Seems like no one mention Cyrus, so Im guessing he ain't special then

    I lvl and Cc Cyrus for male units only maps + I could CR him if I had leftover DC (dat was before I thought of buying Spica LOL)

    I'll invest in Sasha. Thanks 4 da advice

    I never got Cyrus so I can't speak for him but like IvanLedah21 said for the platinums, every unit has their niche. In pure stats Cyrus is a little weaker but with awakening he basically gains rapid fire at the expense of range where as Barbastroff is the exact opposite. In the end it's a matter of preference and practicality.

    And invest in Sasha as much as you can. I may be biased, but she is very good.
