The important factor here is how much you're willing to invest. Thranda is easier to farm than Yjer considering she's frequently appearing in Gacha. Thranda's attack animation is better at PVE than PVP because it's kinda slow compared to other girls and has splash damage. While Yjer can do both decently in PVE and PVP but it will take a really long time and lots of money to rank her up.

- Elnora is better than Chharodi. Hands down. If you're choosing a Ranged character then go for Elnora.
- Meryl's attack sequence is slow and so long. You're better off with Trisha. Not only she's the easiest to star up among all girls you can easily farm her weapon shards unlike Meryl's which I still don't have even a single shard. Although her ult can go high and low, her ult has a whoooping 2000%+ multiplier.
- Emily's Fire Shield is meh. Why does she have to fight melee when she's a Magic-type character? In Arena it works for melee but pointless when she's against another mage or archer. It's even more pointless in Tower in Trials. So yeah go for Naladia.

And you ended up with the cookie cutter team, Elnora Trisha Naladia.

Their shards are hard to farm. It's not even accessible in Normal/Friendship Gacha. When they appear in shop they're always priced high. And when they appear in event, it's better to farm the shards for 3* girls like Claire, Isabelle and Khalis.

I have to fully disagree with this. Claire is very hard to kill in PVP. In Arena a high battle powered Claire is almost impossible to kill. Not only that she can heal a nearby ally. In Tower of Trials, you can just run around and heal whenever you're low on hp.

For Khalis, she would own any melee hero. I have 230k Trisha dying over a 170k Khalis in arena. In Tower of Trials, just micro things up (run around and attack, with her Hunter's Mark +50% damage her normal attack would hurt like crazy) or just around and cast ult and bam you just took 1 enemy.

Isabelle is also hard to kill in arena. I swear I hate this girl when she cast her ult. She's tanky and can heal when she attacks. If you don't have an ult by the time she casts hers, then you're pretty much dead. In Tower of Trials, I experienced wipe out several times with this girl. One ult from her can kill all 3 girls of yours if they're low on hp. The only way to counter this is to use the invincibility time during an ult. Also, Isabelle and Khalis are the best companions in dungeon runs because they can easily kill the boss you're hardpressed to finish regardless of element.

You can just look on what characters other people use. There's a reason why you see these characters more often than other girls in Arena/Raids.
