I have tried it with what I have and they just aren't fast enough. Extra damage and UP may be enough but I'm not certain.

I just want to 1 star the thing so I can keep going and get to farming black spirits further down the track. I think you are right though - do the buffs during an event and kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

The fact you're Freemium is even more reason to hold off 'til event time. 4 SCs used to clear ONE map that's never going away is mostly wasteful if you DO clear it and totally wasted if you still can't. Might as well wait 'til the coming Valkyrie event, get as far as you can there, and if you run into issues in the last couple maps, THEN go ahead and pop the buffs and do both event maps and the Wall while they last.

Out of curiosity, since you mentioned an eagerness to farm black spirits, have you pulled a black (besides TP Saki, that is, if you even have HER)? If not, be content with Phalanx 2, it is one of the best compromises between gold/plat spirits and affection at an affordable 3 Stamina, and you should have no issues with 3* if you drop Adele -> Calliope -> Valerie. My AW Yuyu/Adele combo could duo them all without issue, even before the rebalancing patch.

I farm Phalanx 2 plenty as is. Generally I have a lot of gold and plat spirits but very few blacks. I recently picked up Nanaly with a very lucky free daily summon and I rolled Sophie very early on when I started. I haven't bothered with Saki as I have Hina.

For a free player I can't complain though my choice of mages is woeful. I had to buy Cyrus with DCs and he's still my best mage.
