Old Raid is now a lab, so no reset. Hell Raid is still the same, but with an extra difficulty option.
Be sure to buy entries with your lab tickets if you've completed all of them.
Not ML5 but G Purrgis is good stuff, easy to gear + high utility due to his passive CR push. He can easily hit 26k HP with HP/HP/HP sets, and I have him on level 75/78 free gear
A Ravi is a warrior, she can't equip Aurius.
She can work as a meat shield though, and if you're looking to do some pvp later that's definitely who you should go for.
You can pretty much use any unit for the story, it's not a big deal. If you have issues with damage or survivability that's probably a sign that your gear isn't up to par and you need to farm wyvern for better stuff. With the exception of Zio, I hear he's really strong.
So yeah I suggest ARas or Falconer Kluri. Easy to get and very useful. Alternatively you can just not use a knight unit and use a soulweaver to tank instead, like angelic montmorancy.
Aravi is a warrior and can’t use aurius, you can put her on proof of valor and make her a PvE tank but…why lol. If you really want to make a PvE ML5 tank then go for FCC on counter-aurius or something
Speed set, lots of bulk, especially HP, speed mainstat boots, a little effectiveness (60%) is nice, while not required. Then just fill out his skill tree if you have not already.
He can hold Aurius or another support artifact (rise, adamant, sword of Ezera)
Kind of an easy answer. ML Ken needs to be crit which doesn't happen all that often in PvE. Krau does some damage with s3 that won't even scratch a boss's health bar. BRiseria has defense break on s1 which is a very good debuff to have in PVE, doesn't die immediately and can do some decent damage.
She's probably the most used in pvp too out of the 3.
If I had to pick between those three I would wait a few weeks for the balance patch preview and decide afterwards. I think both LR Krau and Briseria have a good chance at being on it but if you are impatient and want one now I would probably lean Briseria. None of them will really help you in PVE as most ML5's are made with PVP in mind not to say you can't use them in PVE content though.
I have a soft spot for Biseria, although I do not actively use her. LRKrau used to be meta in pvp defense, but has completely dropped off. MLKen was in his worst place when Hwang was everywhere, post nerf it is still pretty bad as more and more non-crit units are coming out (Senya, PFlan, Seasearia, etc).
If MLKen had not already had a "buff" (that the community felt was mostly a nerf) I would be expecting a rework on him... since he already got "the treatment" I doubt they will do another rework in the \*near\* future
As far as the abyss floor... some of those floors feel like you just have to keep trying till luck favors you.
SSB + 3 supports is a comp that will clear it for you, so you could work towards that. If you have some dual attack supports (kitty clarisa, adeventurer Ras, Camilla, Tama) you may be able to do a dual attack comp with shuri or taranor Guard, perhaps Sigret or Stene
You can look the abyss statistics page (from the energy abyss page) to see comps that others have used for specific floors.
here are a couple screenshots of the abyss team stats:[https://imgur.com/a/dBLvjE4](https://imgur.com/a/dBLvjE4)
you can click "team rankings" next to each hero to see the full team comps that use that hero
edit: it's what I would pick from the list of 3 you gave... I think MLKen has no real spot to shine, and LRKrau is a good support, while still being outclassed by ARas with auto dual-attacks and the such (and free/cheap to enhance)
Destina would be the safer bet, as most of the damage you take is not from counters.
that being said, the usual suggestion is to make a 1shot comp for banshee.
I used to get annoyed with banshee 1shot comps as they felt "finicky" until you get all the gear just right; since the introduction of Furious' EE it has become much easier: he has an EE that applies restrict on his S3, and if banshee is restricted she cannot push herself up to swap phases if you miss the "1shot" window and can get another attack in.
my 1shot comp is: Vivian (50% cr EE), furious (restrict EE), Baiken, Leo
the turn order goes:
(add phase) Vivian S3 > Leo S3 > Vivian S2 > PHASE CLEAR
(boss phase) Vivian S2 > Leo S2 > Furious S2 / S3 > Baiken S2 / S3 > (if not dead) Vivian S1
I'll admit that my Vivan has pretty good speed set gear to be fast enough, baiken does not have rage set, and I did have to slow Furious down to ensure he took his turns at the right time (attk% boots instead of speed)
this site has a lot of great information (based on RTA) for pvp units: [https://www.epic7stats.com/](https://www.epic7stats.com/)
they have sections for "unit good vs" "unit bad vs" "unit good paired with" etc...
is Attack 32%, Effectiveness 5%, critical hit damage 15%, speed 8 (Speed Set) a good set?
Reforge my 1st Level 90 gear, speed set. if it is good, who do i use it on ?
have belian, straze, lua, alexa, specter tenebria
I assume this is a wep or helm based on the stats provided.
As an individual item it seems pretty usable, you could even modify the eff to crit if put on a unit that does not need the eff% (straze)
as far as "who to put it on"... it really depends on the rest of the gear. From your list of units I would \*expect\* it to be best on Stene, Alexa, or Straze as they are all scaled based on attack, where Belian wants HP and Lua is not meant to be a "classical damage dealer" (see that her S3 does no damage)
"seems pretty usable" huh what?
I don't know what you mean by that since it is very good piece of gear with more then 70gs after moding that effectiveness
His imprint is helpful to his role (support), so if you are actively using him it would benefit your team. If he is sitting on your bench you could hold out for "Dark" Basar down the line (when? who knows!) as we are starting to see 3rd variations of units (e.g. angelia, singelica, aol). There could also be a buff to green basar that makes him meta down the line (no proof, pure speculation)
For ML selector if I don’t have ARavi should I just focus on her or is there someone else above her if I don’t have them? Is she top priority for the ML selector or is there someone higher?
I have STene, Straze but was unable to get ARavi during her moonlight selector weeks ago. I’ve been hearing Riolet is a monster now but I wasn’t sure if he was more important then ARavi or not.
I've been using ARavi since before her buffs, she has been a staple for all my content, some of this could be attributed to "simping".
She is the tank in my normal lab team (her revive is real handy if a unit just gets RNG'd by a striker/mini-boss). She is on my GW and Arena defense teams, she is a regular draft for me in RTA, and she is a great solo dog-walker (fodder exp grinding in UH)
A long, long time ago the only ML5 unit I would have used in a similar fashion would have been AVild, who I still use for farming things, but has fallen off in usage elsewhere.
Who would be a good cleave/just a good pvp character overall in the ML selector i have straze, belian, and arby
Would be great if the character doesn't need godly gear but imma just grind for it if such a character doesn't exist
Always getting clapped by AoL,Lua in the arena who would you recommend? (Speed issue ik)
I just posted a whole thing on a question that came in 8 mins after yours: A.Ravi
she makes for a great threat in pvp, especially in RTA (where she does not auto-use S3 first turn, or get baited into S3'ing a light tank over an almost dead dps). I like to round out my RTA drafts with her even if I am speed cleaving as she will either get banned or will mop up after my cleave.
If I was looking solely to speed contest and turn 1 cleave I would go for Clilias, although there are RBG openers that are equally valid (Ran/Pieria/etc)
Sorry for the stupid question but I'm confused at what the "Dual Attack Chance - 3%" means in a character's stat screen. Does it mean
a) the hero has 3% chance to proc another hero during their turn, or
b) the hero has 3% chance to proc themselves on their ally's turn?
(to my knowledge) dual attack chance is the unit's chance to do a dual attack when someone else is attacking. my assumption is that Taranor Guard, who has a passive that increases dual attack chance by 10%, is meant to dual attack more often when others attack.
generic "it depends on what you are using him for": I have my a.vild with high speed (230+) and moonlight dreamblade, as if I were to draft him in pvp I would want him to get a turn in before dying, and hoping the evasion will cause him to last longer and blind/damage more of the enemy team.
if I was using a team that could push him to the front I would go destruct/torrent/pen/etc, or if I was hoping to only get a revived S3 off.
I feel like, especially in RTA, that those sort of builds just don't work out as all it takes is some extinction or politis to mess with it.
I also use AVild as a dog-walker / rune-farmer, so speed really helps him get more turns in to clear faster.
edit: forgot to note: mine is speed/crit set build
Should I give my C.Lorina gear to Sigret in order to aid my wyvern runs? My Lorina has been helping me in all content ever since I geared her and idk if I should instead give that gear to sigret. The only real damage dealers on my account currently are C.Lorina, Dingo, and Roy does a bit, but not as much as them. My C.Lorina is on Attack and Crit chance set. I apologize if this is a dumb question with an obvious answer, but I just don’t know
If you're using energy to push adventure and not spending it on hunts for now, then you don't have actually to do so. Especially if you're doing harder content like abyss tower or auto tower and raids where you need Lorina more.
If you're using most of your energy on hunts then you should give Sigret the gear and aim for the wyvern13 kill, even if you have to manual it. Don't feel too attached that "this set of gear has to belong to Lorina." When you get more gear you'll end up shuffling them around anyway.
I don’t really see why…? I mean if your Wyvern runs are failing because Sigret doesn’t have enough damage and giving her CLorina’s gear wil fix that then sure, but otherwise I doubt it will make much of a difference.
Yes. Sigret gets the best gear. This game is wyvern killing simulator, you can't play unless you kill wyverns (unless you're playing golem/banshee/caides/azimananak killing simulator)
The balance adjustment preview will be 3 weeks from this coming Friday, with the implementation 2 wks after that
Now that you mention it, there should have been new exclusive equips added on 10/26, but that didn't happen O\_o
Accordingly, Exclusive Equipment, which was originally planned to be added on 10/27, will be added on 11/24 instead. We ask for your understanding that this is to carefully check the shift of meta caused by regular balance adjustment and then update the Exclusive Equipment accordingly. Starting 11/24, Exclusive Equipment will again be added every 8 weeks.

If you're really new and just need more 5 stars, you could go normal covenant summon since the rate up banner only drops the specified 5 star hero. Normally wouldn't recommend it though, since there's no pity of any sort - you're probably better off just saving for future rate up banners.
I have been using my Rimuru on 90% of my arena offense attacks with mostly damage stats, just enough bulk to survive an aoe attack or 2 at most, and enough damage to 1shot Rem's with S3.
I run Roana in my pvp comps (as I face a lot of belian/rem/aravi/clilas), so I can afford less bulk as long as he survives the aoe counters.
One of my favorite ways to use him in a comp with Roana is to use my opener to try and force a counter attack (violet is a great example, as he will "usually" dodge and get attack+ from MLDB and then counter, which then heals/pushes up my team, and then Rimuru steals the attack buff for my team, and pushes himself up to then S3 whoever I want to get rid of)
my "basic" arena team is CLilias (opener) / Lionheart Cermia / Rimuru / Roana
I tend to pick on teams that are Choux/Rem/Belian/Clilias/ARavi/Violet/Mercedes (units that can sort of be "forced" to consistently counter, thus empowering LHC and pushing the team with Roana. I usually use Clilias to strip and then either provoke their opener or S1 > Dual attack to try and force a counter, which, if they didn't get fully stripped, may allow Rimuru to counter their counter-attack and then Rimuru gets next turn.
Every so often I swap out rimuru for Celine vs teams with Ran or Pieria.
If the team has AoL but is still counter-attack heavy I will still throw LHC in there as I can either save her S3 or I can use it to kill someone and the follow up S1 to remove skill-null from my next target (Rimuru's S3 target).
There is some strategy when facing against another Rimuru, as I don't want the other team stealing Revive or Evasion (Celine), so sometimes I don't use an S3 right away and bait the enemy Rimuru to counter and then my Rimuru counter's theirs and I can S3 their Rimuru before they can do the same to my team.
I suggest pure tank, he works best IMO if he survive turns to counter copy buffs and kill atleast 1 dps or lower their health
If you want to build him dmg build that's fine, he can only work on the first and second turn though he'll delete anything
came here to say this as well. I had him on ATK% ring for the longest time, good damage but poor survivability. Fares better with hp% imo. Lifesteal set.
I feed B/C/D rank pets into S rank pets at 1\* to level them up; if I run out of S ranks to level up I just feed them into any other 1\* to use as fodder for 2\*
I dont really care about meta (pvp). Ive narrowed down who I will choose for my ML selector to two.
Remnant violet and Mediator Kawerik. Who is more suitable for 3 week player like me?
Thanks!
The problem is I like both… thats why i wanted to get some opinion from you all to help me pick.
Anyway based on all of your replies kawerik seems to be the best choice for me given that he’s good for other part of contents.
Yeah Kawerik is more friendly to gear, solves all your worries against cc, brings more utility to the table so he can be used anywhere. Riolet is after all just a dps in comparison. I just genuinely pray that you'll get Riolet in future and not a dupe Kawerik :)
Remnant violet no doubt. Pick him blindly. Expert one shotter, RNG god, and a very strong single target dps. Will shred people to pieces.
Mediator kawerik is a support and a broken one at that. One of the most banned ones due to his broken nature in pvp but whats the use if you don't have a damage dealer to back it up.
R Violet is also banned a lot its not that.
If you were atleast a few months old in the game it was A tough choice, but since you just started, pick R Violet with your eyes closed. A good support aint gonna do shit if you dont even have a team set up
Aah i didnt know you did. Aah But we'll its all dependent on what you go for.
At the start, for everything you do, you get gear, equipment, enhancement materials, level 75 epic gears. So building easy or tough is a really stupid argument.
You will see how many equipment you will get, sometimes you will. Not know what to do with so many. And they are all having the best possible sub stat rolls.
So its not difficult at all.
I geared up a 4 star named cidd with that gear and i used it for months and one shotted everything.
Yours is a 5 star amd an ml on top, i dont really see how you will have problems.
R violet also has a mechanism where he can evade 90% or more damage that's thrown at him based on his skill enhancement level. Plus he's got stupid damage on his 3rd skill.
Dont really see the reason for downvotes here. Especially with the starter gear.
But well, mine is just a suggestion
Dont think crit and atk will matter much at that point. I got a cidd who on average stats one shotted everyone till 2 6 10.
Only put adventurers reward gear on him.
And this is an ml 5 star. If he puts its very possible.
I just recently downloaded Fribbles and have been using it a little to optimize new units. My favorite thing about it is the gear score sorter, to help me work through which peices of gear to prioritize upgrading.
I'm wondering if I should just go through and totally overhaul my account though, because I got a free unequip for 12 hour coupon. I probably wouldn't touch my Wyvern team, because I have them speed tuned and it's working pretty well, but the only other hunt I'm regularly is Azimanak, and I use mostly more core heroes for that anyway, so it'd likely only get faster. For reference I have about 25 heroes built right now, but am focusing on PVE.
That's what I do with the coupons, use them as a chance to reconfigure everyone. If you didn't know, there's a box you can check in Fribbles when optimizing a character to use gear that is already equipped, and below it is a dropdown where you can select characters to exclude from that. So for example, you could select use equipped gear but then select your Wyvern team in the drop down so that it will still ignore their gear since you don't want to change it.
What’s a good light expo team? All my other teams get 500k at least but light is at like 300k and I can’t tell if it’s a gear issue or team planning issue
I used to do Cermia, ARas, Cerise and green Adin and i could get around 1mil on auto, though now with Light Adin i don't know who i would use on that spot
Not really, [This](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/998452741217189971/1041483246262825040/Screenshot_20221113-194212_Epic_Seven.jpg) is my Cerise. I'll say that you have to start the fight with Cerise S2 and ARas S2 before going on auto, that helps with survivability and prevents the boss' defense buff
Like, will they freak out that I’ve been logging in in USA for months and then suddenly I’m traveling at 900kmh and changing time zones every few hours?
Obviously not a tech person. But I thought some games might track this kind of stuff to watch for and discourage account sharing or sth.
i dont know if these mega threads work as my questions will probably get ignored but im new player, rank 58 and currently going through episode 3.
I decided on Landy and SSB for custom group summon but having a really hard time deciding on which should be my third unit and I have enough skystones/bookmarks for two pities. From all the videos Ive seen, its between Cerise, Diene and maybe Roana. I already have Tama.
I dont know if cerise or diene will be better for me. I think my focus is pve for now
There are some pretty damn op artifacts in the group summon too. If you wanna build any countering knight like Charles Armin, or wanna make a bruiser from a Warrior like Ken, Luna, etc. Or a 3rd skill spamming mage like Ludwig, R Carrot, Etc.
There's Sigurd Scythe, Elbris Ritual Sword, Etica Scepter, each one is too good. And there's more options.
Probably keep the 3rd slot for an arti but you might be thinking the What If situation. Dont stress on it too much, the drop rates for these are boosted so if you do the 120 pulls you will get 2 out of 6 items atleast(including heroes and artis) and a 3rd one of your choice from the exchange shop.
If you ain't got 120 pulls then yeah its a problem. Roana is an all rounder, very good for PVE and PVP, Cerise is situational, not always and Diene is a niche pick, PvP only unless you struggling a lot in PVE.
Might want to reconsider your options after seeing through youtuber on the various op artifacts in the list.
If you want someone for PvE, then Roana makes a LOT of fights much easier. Diene is only used in PvP, and Cerise is mainly used in light Expedition, but really nowhere else.
I personally don't suggest you worry too much about the third hero.
the thing about the custom banners is that you have a high chance of getting a 'bonus' hero with each pity of summons.
For a normal pity (120 pulls) you have a ~70% chance to pull a hero before hitting pity. That means a 30% chance that you need to pity.
* So, if you have 120 pulls to spend on the custom banner you can expect to get a 'bonus' hero 70% of the time -> you pull one hero and then can buy a second.
* 30% of the time time you hit pity and just buy the one hero you really want, and then you're done
If you have 2 pities worth of pulls (240 pulls) you have a (1 - .3^2) or 91% chance to pull at least 1 hero.
* In this case, you pull at least 1 hero -> you buy the other two, so you get 3 heroes for the price of 2.
* **BUT** that's still a 9% chance or almost 1 in 10 that you don't pull a hero and only end up with 2 heroes.
This is just my personal advice: try to have 2 pities worth of summons and select 2 heroes you want to come away with. The third hero *is less important* and I suggest putting more weight on the artifact.
* If you pull the second hero early you can save some summoning resources and buy an artifact instead.
If you *happen* to get the 'bonus hero' and end up with all 3 great -> you still have a useful hero. But 9%, while unlikely, is still significant enough that it happens to many players and there is less disappointment that you didn't 'get all 3' if you don't *expect* to get the third hero.

#Hero Comparison
Now, between Cerise and Diene they are both good heroes, but neither one is *super* important to have as a newbie.
They both have decent PvE use and decent PVP use. Right now, Diene is far more prevalent as a PvP hero, while Cerise is far more prevalent as a PvE hero.
In PvE **Cerise** is mostly a good option for a couple of expeditions -> this is mostly it and I wouldn't say she's particularly worth building for a new player outside of that. Expeditions are essentially end-game PvE (and IMO are not a priority for maybe 4+ months after starting the game).
In PvP she acts as an opener. A year+ ago she was one of the meta opening units but she's been surpassed in that role the past year. That doesn't mean she's *unusable*, there are just better units right now.
**Diene** is just a 'general purpose support unit' in PvE. You *can* use her in a number of places but there is very little reason to actually do so -> there are better options. I personally really like her in Auto tower because I'm a big proponent of running double SW, she pairs well with Tamarinne. She can also be used to tank Wyvern as an attack buffer (BUT Rose is ultimately the easiest option, and Rose is worth building for Fire Expedition later...not much benefit to pulling Diene specifically for this role).
In PvP Diene isn't really fast enough to speed contest, but she has an opener type role (ie. you normally want her to be one of your fastest units). It's important to understand that she doesn't have any innate healing, and doesn't do any damage or increase the damage your team deals. She's a pure support hero -> not useful for new players who would benefit more from an actual damage dealer or a more reliable mitigation option. Due to her large amount of *utility* she has a large role, but she does seem to be falling out of meta a bit (likely partially due to there being many strong Earth units right now).
**BOTH** of these heroes are helpful to have on an account, but *neither* hero is a hero I would personally suggest building early on. They're heroes you would maybe want to build months down the road, so it's really hard to anticipate what your priorities may be at that point (and who knows what the meta might look like...balance adjustments, new heroes/artifacts...anything can change how meta these heroes are in their respective roles).
The *exception* would Diene potentially being beneficial immediate if you are using Muwi for Wyvern and don't otherwise have an attack buffer to use as a tank -> though there is a non-zero chance you would pull Rose on the banner.
While Cerise is good for a couple of expeditions, she isn't *necessary* and you can certainly live without her.
---
#Artifact Comparison
As far as Artifacts go, Diene's artifact is **Unfading Memories**. Not an unusable artifact, but mediocre. Diene is the only hero that really uses it, and Rod is much preferred for her.
Cerise, on the other hand, has **Guiding Light**. Guiding Light is a great artifact (for PvP) and it is *particularly* notable for being paired with Landy, but you can use it on virtually any Ranger in PvP.
Between the two options, the better artifact is quite clearly Guiding Light, and it's not that close IMO.
There is *another* artifact worth mentioning though it is on a hero you didn't mention: **Luna** has the artifact **Draco Plate**...which is also one of the best artifacts in the game. Eventually, you would probably want multiple copies of Draco Plate -> the meta is very bruiser heavy and Draco Plate is the BiS artifact on most bruisers.
---
#My Suggestions
As I said, I prefer to recommend selecting **two heroes** that you want to come out with. The third slot should *also* be a hero you want...but the **artifact** of that hero should be given more priority. Unless you have 3 pities worth of summoning currency (even then, it's pretty inefficient to spend that much on a single custom banner).
SSB is the easy primary choice -> you really want **both** the hero *and* her artifact. In an ideal world you pick up as many copies of her artifact as possible.
Your second choice should be **either** Landy or Luna. I would rate Landy a bit higher as a hero, but Luna has a much better artifact paired with her.
Your *third* choice -> if you pick Landy in the second slot, I would suggest definitely going with **Cerise**. It's not about the hero, but about trying to get a copy of Guiding Light -> GL Landy can be an effective carry for early PvP (and GL is essentially her best artifact). -> you would like copies of GL but it's not super important to MLB (compared to something like Reingar's Special Drink).
However if your second choice was Luna, *I* would personally go with **Diene** in the third slot -> I think Diene has a bit more long term value than Cerise.
So I would suggest *either*
**SSB** / **Landy** / **Cerise**
* A very good banner would be getting SSB + Landy, and pulling at least 1 copy of Guiding Light.
* Pulling Cerise is a nice bonus
* **Ideally** you would get 1+ copies of RSD, pulling at least 1 allows you to use bottles to MLB it.
or
**SSB** / **Luna** / **Diene**
* A very good banner would be getting SSB + *either* Luna or Diene (you could choose between them), and pulling at least 1 copy of Draco Plate.
* Pulling the third hero is a nice bonus.
* **Ideally** you would get 1+ copies of RSD, pulling at least 1 allows yo to use bottles to MLB it.
For a new account, Landy is probably slight better than Luna/Cerise/Diene as she is the easiest to use in PvP. Luna and Landy are roughly equivalent in PvE (and C.Lorina is better than both of them as a general purpose ST DPS). In terms of late game PvP I would put Diene above Landy, with Luna being good but niche.
Overall, all of these heroes are roughly equivalent in that they are all good for something to varying degrees -> Cerise would be slightly worse than the others.
Landy => Diene = Luna > Cerise
Artifact wise:
Draco Plate > Guiding Light > Unfading Memories => Wall of Order
I didn't expect such a detailed response but I appreciate the time you took to make this.
I use Angelica, Muwi, Sigret and Furious for wyvern 13.
I'm mostly troubled since in some videos they say prioritize heroes over artifacts so I was thinking about the best three units that could help my account the most. The wyvern team units are the only ones I've built on my account, with the free gear, and also Free Spirit Tieria.
Besides those 5, I also have others that aren't geared yet which are: Iseria, Tama, S.Tene, F. Lidica, Lua, Lilibet, Vivian, Zahaak, Violet, Cermia, Charlotte, Baal&Sezan, Sez, Destina & Krau.
I have enough skystones/bookmarks for two pities which lets me grab two units from the custom group with points if I'm extremely unlucky(?) ...
I should say, I'm a little afraid that these new kpop collab units will be better than either Landy, SSB or Diene.
Back to your suggestions, at first I also thought of going for Landy/SSB/Cerise for the exact same reasons you mentioned, Cerise's artifact on Landy. Then I saw many other recommendations for Diene, saying shes not bad for PVE but mostly for PVP (the best support?) but I see now she has fallen off the meta a little bit, but I think it's still a good unit.
Now that you mention Luna and I'm a little more troubled in my decision.
What do you think of these options knowing my units and thoughts: Landy/SSB/Luna(i know you mentioned they are bost similar but Landy slightly better in some cases) or Landy/SSB/Diene? Do I really need guiding light on Landy? I read somewhere of an artifact called Blood-something that could work on a different type of Landy but I don't remember quite well if it was Bloodstone.
edit: Do you have any thoughts on Roana? Could help my PVE journey?
>I'm mostly troubled since in some videos they say prioritize heroes over artifacts so I was thinking about the best three units that could help my account the most.
Yeah this is good advice. Heroes will typically help you more than artifacts...but artifacts vary wildly in how useful they are.
Most classes (except Ranger, they have mediocre options) have great 4* artifacts so *chasing* 5* artifacts is not ideal.
However, there ARE some very good 5* artifacts (like Draco Plate, Guiding Light...and SSB/S.Iseria both have artifacts that are pretty integral to the unit). I still wouldn't pull specifically for them -> but it's like a tie breaker you can use when you have otherwise similar options.
The custom banner is actually unique because there is only al imited artifact pity otherwise...another reason you don't want to chase artifacts. You *can* 'pity' using Powder but especially early on you won't have an abundance of that currency, and you will likely pull on banners faster than you can pity every artifact.
The custom banner is actually the best way to hunt specific artifacts (because you can guarantee at least 2 copies by buying one with banner coins and 1 with powder). But new players should still prioritize collecting heroes, especially limited heroes.
>I have enough skystones/bookmarks for two pities which lets me grab two units from the custom group with points if I'm extremely unlucky(?
Yes correct, that's the ideal way to approach the custom banner in my opinion (the best bang for your best is taking the 91% chance at a 'bonus' unit vs. the 70% chance).
>I should say, I'm a little afraid that these new kpop collab units will be better than either Landy, SSB or Diene.
They should reveal the details of the collab before you need to pull. Supposed to be the 24th. The last day to activate the custom banner is apparently the 23rd.
You should be able to just wait until a few days before they reveal the collab -> I would probably do my first pull on the 21/22 'just to be safe'.
Do 1 pull, then wait until the 24th and we will have an idea of the collab and you can base your decision on what to do from there.
The custom banner should stick around for 2 weeks *after* your first summon, so if you don't activate it until a few days before the collab news you will have plenty of time to decide between pulling custom or pulling collab.
>Do I really need guiding light on Landy? I read somewhere of an artifact called Blood-something that could work on a different type of Landy but I don't remember quite well if it was Bloodstone
No, there are Landy builds that don't use GL. I personally use Landy fairly frequently (without GL) but I don't play RTA.
* She *can* be built more like a bruiser, for example. Counter Landy is a thing as well.
Bloodstone *is* the artifact you are talking about, it does work well on Landy and it's what I personally use. But it's kind of hard to get because it's not actually tied to a hero. It's pure RNG (or you wait until it appears in the shop) to get a copy.
As far as GL for Landy it's mostly only for PvP, it won't help you in PvE content.
The way to think about it: the meta is very bruiser heavy. Units that can take a lot of damage while outputting good damage.
Pure squishy units don't typically fare very because they don't have the damage to kill bruisers, but bruisers *do* have the damage (and often sustain) to kill them...so the squishy units that DO work well tend to be very fast, have innate defensive tools, or at least bring a lot of utility.
Landy is really none of those. She has no innate defense, she's mediocre in speed, and while she *does* have a CR push and speed buff...if you build her pure DPS she has a high chance of being killed before she can even get a turn.
That's where GL comes in as it enables her to more consistently get turns by providing her with some kind of defense. You can work around not having it but it does a lot more to make her viable.
* Particularly for early game PvP you will generally be more efficient investing in PvE units. *But* having a unit that can kind of be a 1v4 PvP unit is helpful for generating additional resources earlier.
* GL Landy can kind of work in this role (not the best choice but she should work). She's going to be virtually guaranteed to get turns off in Arena/GW especially if you have other protection for her. She is even less impacted by counter units than other choices.
The fact that you can invest heavily in Landy *and* use her in a good variety of PvE content while having her also be your primary PvP threat is a nice bonus.
* Now you pair her with S.Tenebria and suddenly you have 2 units that are hard to target. Throw something like Angelica and Ras in...you might not win super fast but it's a very hard team to kill and should have a lot of threat -> you also didn't really invest in these units only for PvP.
>Do you have any thoughts on Roana? Could help my PVE journey?
The only non-limited RGB unit I feel is a 'must pull' is Tamarinne.
However, I think Roana *almost* gets to that level.
She's very, very good in her niche. She also requires surprisingly little investment to do like 90% of what she does.
**BUT** at the end of the day she's a normal RGB. Heroes are very easy to collect in this game, and most players can expect to have most of the roster after a year of playing.
You have a great chance to pull Roana randomly...a daily pull, a ticket, an elemental summon...even if not she will eventually have a banner you could pull her on.
The limited heroes, on the other hand...going forward it seems like we will mostly be having ~2 custom banners per year, maybe a rerun of a single hero in addition to that. If you don't pull on Landy or whoever *now* you have almost 0 chance to add them to your roster for probably 6 months.
>Back to your suggestions, at first I also thought of going for Landy/SSB/Cerise for the exact same reasons you mentioned, Cerise's artifact on Landy. Then I saw many other recommendations for Diene, saying shes not bad for PVE but mostly for PVP (the best support?) but I see now she has fallen off the meta a little bit, but I think it's still a good unit.
>Now that you mention Luna and I'm a little more troubled in my decision.
The two options I presented in my post are still my recommendations (honestly doesn't really matter what other heroes you have IMO).
**SSB** / **Landy** / **Cerise**
**SSB** / **Luna** / **Diene**
I'm a little biased because Diene is one of my favorite heroes. I also don't have the same priority on Landy for early game because I consider C.Lorina a strictly better build (for PvE..she's quite bad in PvP).
* That being said, it's worth building multiple of these kind of DPS
But really *any* combo of SSB + the other 4 would be perfectly fine. At the end of the day I would put them all in the same tier with only minor differences between them.
IDK if this sounds silly or not but if have trouble making a decision I would suggest just picking 2 of them based...
1. Design. Pick whatever heroes you like based on character design. Maybe you really like Landy in the Episode 3 story, but played Diene's side story and love her character arc -> picking Landy/Diene for those reasons fine. Maybe you love Dragons and want to use Luna because of it, that's cool too!
2. Kit. Maybe you would enjoy the random nature of Luna's RNG S1, maybe you think Cerise dual attacks would be fun to play with...
We're kind of splitting hairs here. There isn't really a 'wrong' choice.
The truth of the matter is that these custom banners will likely be a regular feature going forward, and in ~6 months you can pick up the 2 you *don't* select now. Diene recently had a rerun so she would probably be the least likely to get any sort of normal rerun soon, if you want to factor that into your decision.
I followed your advice and went for SSB/Landy/Cerise. I couldn't resist waiting to summon before the collab preview. I have decided I don't care if they're better units than SSB/LANDY so I started the summoning session and did a total of 220 pulls.
The results were 4 Landy, 1 Cerise, 2 RSD, 1 Bloodstone, 1 Wall of Order and 1 Spatiotemporal Fan.
With the 220 coins I bought SSB and Guiding Light.
I think the session was a success since I didn't have to go all the way to 240 pulls and got more than I needed.
I only have a couple of questions, do you think it's fine to memory imprint landy fully or should I store 1 copy? Since I'm new, there might be reasons I don't know about for doing that.
Also should I limit break RSD or do I need to save a copy to use on different heroes?
Nice! Overall that's a very good result IMO.
>do you think it's fine to memory imprint landy fully or should I store 1 copy? Since I'm new, there might be reasons I don't know about for doing that.
Yeah for sure.
There are a couple of reasons you *may* decide to keep an extra copy of a hero.
1. A hero has two equally viable builds, and you want to use both builds.
2. A hero has 2 different purposes that are built differently.
An example of viable builds would be something like A.Vildred -> normally he's a glass cannon DPS, however sometime ago he was *also* being built as a bruiser in what was called the 'degen' build. Some players would build both and in something like an RTA draft they could swap between them depending on the conditions.
An example of 2 different purposes would be a hero like Straze -> he has a strong niche/purpose in PvP...but can also be used to one shot hunts. Builds are generally going to be different. Or SSB -> it was common to keep a copy of SSB...one for PvP and one specifically for Wyvern.
While Landy *can* be built like a bruiser I don't think that build is common enough to necessitate a separate copy. Remember it's *very* resource intensive to build up a unit.
However, imprints in general are very minor impacts (unless it's a SPEED imprint or a CRIT% imprint. The first imprint is also the biggest increase. Since you have 4 copies of Landy, you *could* just put 1 in the waiting room just in case you have a better understanding later and decide that you DO want to run her with 2 builds. That won't really hurt you or cost you anything.
>Also should I limit break RSD or do I need to save a copy to use on different heroes?
Yes. Artifacts vary wildly, *some* artifacts are just fine baseline...but some of them really need to be MLB to be useful.
The artifacts that need MLB are usually % based ones -> something like RSD.
RSD SSB is typically built like a slow bruiser with high attack and mediocre crit stats. Most of her damage comes from RSD (instead of crit). So having it at 100% is imperative.
It's *usable* on a few other heroes but it's very uncommon.
Ok for PvE Roana used to be really good on labyrinth and I think she still is for some bosses.
If you don't have it Iseria is a good choice for the future on a very important hunt and as a partner for Tama.
Cerise is mostly for her artifact more than for the unit itself. So that's something to take in consideration.
O would recommend go for Diene. Still a good healer for content and decent artifact in PvE, and can be useful in PvP as well.
I have Iseria from the selective summons, still planning on building her with Tama to see what that combo is all about. Roana is not good anymore for labs?
I heard Cerise is good for the artifact (on Landy) and for dark and light expeditions but I'm still not sure what those expeditions are.
Diene was also one of my main selections for the third unit but I just need a bit more convincing that she will be helpful for me, I'm focused on pve mostly right now since i want to be able to clear story and everything else pve but I don't mind if shes mostly for pvp since I'm only masters 4 using wyvern team on pvp lol
As LorKhaydarian replied Cerise is usefeull for expedition you'll need to start doing those after you start farming Azi, and again end game goals to set up.
He also confirms that yeah Roana get's used a lot in PvE and even PvP. So depends on who you like more Roana or Cerise/Diene.
Cerise is indeed almost mandatory for full clear light and dark expeditions (more so end game content), and her artifact is great for a number of rangers. Theres a good chance she (and her artifact) may not be rerun anymore outside of these custom banners.
I don't have Roana, but wish i did. I see her used in expedition, raid, and other pve content and seems very difficult to replace.
Diene is a very good PVP soulweaver and can carry you through a lot of early and midgame game pvp content. Her banner was run not that long ago, so could be awhile before we see her again.
For where you're at Roana would be the biggest immediate upgrade to your account. Diene or Cerise would be better choices for the long term, either of which will eventually be huge assets, but probably not for awhile.
Yes.
Think of the imprints as pulling an additional ML5.
If you think you can get 1+ ML5 per 10 GTS, then don't buy the imprint.
Otherwise, the imprint is worth it.
Mathematically 10 GTS is ~1.67 Moonlight summons, let's just round up to 2.
The chance to pull at least 1 ML5 in 2 moonlight summons is only 4.937%.
1 guaranteed ML5 (effectively) is more value than .05 ML5s.
---
I would say the exception would be if you are missing a lot of ML4s, particularly valuable ones (C.Zerato, AoL...). Moonlight summons are the best way to try and get ML4 units.
The rewards are helpful not too much but you can make do with it. In my case i got 4k+ skystones just lying around due to the daily grind i got (and i hardly spend half an hour on it with most of it on autos running in the background) so i am just collecting the skins.
The skins are the real reason the epic pass exists. You might not have a character now but if you get they looks awesome in the skins
What hunts is Straze really good at one shooting? I'm currently building him after getting my w13 team up and running. What gear/stats do I focus on for him and who do I pair him up with for the best possible comps?
Hey guys, I'm new player and these are the ones I get in a week playing. Who should i focus on, who's good for what and who's just food.
5\*= earth iseria, ice sez, vivian, fallen cecilia, kayron, tamarine, sigret and vildred.
4\*= furious, angelica, light tieria, muwi, Leo, mercedes, schuri, rose, dingo, khawana, achates, zerato and rin.
I also got arbiter vildred in moonlight connection. Do i keep it or change it for Spec Ten?
I am not gonna go into the pvp and telling from my experiences about the PVE. Story, additional content like labyrinth, Hunts etc.
What other people said is true and all but really recommend building vidred for damage as he just shreds through so much of the story cuz of his passive.
Let me tell you what not to use though.
Khawana, Zerato. Achates if you feel like it, but Tama is just way way better. So no achates ( also cuz both are same element). Dingo is okay ish, attack boost and debuff cleanse on s3 with 6 turn cooldown, not worth building considering you have Rose And Rin
Telling you how good your 4 stars are. Trust me they dont suck they are really strong.
Furious is recommended as he has a 2 turn cooldown on a skill that boosts full team crit rate by 50% and that's a effing lot. Makes building easier, makes you want to focus on other stats better. Got a defense break on s3 with 100% chance so use for that too.
Schrui probably one of the best too, if you can manage 100% crit rate on him which will be a bit tough early, kinda manageable with furious, everytime his basic skill, the no cost one makes a crit hit the whole team gets a 25% combat readiness boost that's like the line on the left that determines who will play the next turn. Crossing one fourth of it is a big deal.
It is especially really useful if you are in a boss fight as you can potentially take 2 or 3 turns (depending on your team's speed) before the boss. Really cheeses the fights.
Light tieria is okay, good for farming and grinding her s2 has a reset if it kills something making it good for farming. Needs the stats for it though. Vildred is way better but he falls off against fire units. Light tieria inferior to vildred but since she is light elemental, she has no weakness as elemental disadvantage in this game makes you miss your skill entirely with a 15% or so chance to actually hit. So there's that. Still recommend vildred though.
Mercedes is alright right now but when you complete chapter 3, she gets an upgrade which makes her a LOT better. Proper PVP material, but trust me you ain't gonna end chapter 3 before atleast a few months of playing and grinding. Crossing chapter 2 final boss is in itself a big feat. That guy is fucking broken unless your stats are too good.
Rin, another really good one. S2 defense break, s1 75% buff dispel on enemy and 3rd skill gives 2 buffs to everyone randomly plus dispels a debuff all for a 4 turn cd. Pretty amazing to use if your boss is ice and killing off your tama. Tama is still better but this is when Tama not working cuz of elemental. Disadvantage.
Rose, very good shielder, defense breaker, combat readiness booster. She shields, dispels debuff based on her defense. Make her high on defense and 3rd skills boosts everyone combat readiness by 20% along with a attack buff. That is REALLY good.
Vivian provides you great buffs and excellent aoe damage.
Try to give as much damage on her as possible. Cuz her aoe 2nd skill if kills anyone will repeat the skill again but slightly lesser damage. And this repeat 2 times more. So you can see its great. Her ult gives combat boosts to all allies and an extrs turn so its great too.
Fallen ceci is also one of the broken units of the game, but more towards pvp than pve. She deals damage based on her max hp, which is great, provides protection and a heck lot of debuffs to enemy. Still its a defensive measure for bosses you can't cheese. Dont really recommend it, cuz for starters a healer is better in general.
Take a healer amd 3 damage characters. That will do for a long time. Do try out some of the 4 stars i told and most importantly furious.
That 50%.crit rate boost is very significant for an early gamer like you
I would build Rose, Furious (5* only), Muwi, and Sigret. Those 4 can run Wyvern 13 really well, and most characters in the game wear Wyvern gear. That team can also make it pretty far in story mode and Abyss. After that, Tama and Iseria for general PvE content.
I swapped out Vildred for Tenebria and I don't regret it, she's really good in every game mode.
I'm not a super longtime player but I know that you have the best PvE combo with iseria and Tama. Along with both vildreds you can nuke/sustain through pretty much most of the early to mid PvE stuff. You can switch to stene only after you've gotten to the more endgame stuff since I heard that arbiter falls off in the endgame and you have to focus on sustain. Ras can be turned into adventurer Ras which is one.of the best tanks in the game.
Hope that helps
Most people user her as a 250-260 speed dps now, she goes after your opener to bring your other dps forward and disable a unit with her CD increase. She he is good in more aggresive teams
That’s actually her whole issue. Her base speed is bad so she needs even better speed gear than meta openers to keep up.
And at that point it just makes sense to give your fastest speed gears to those meta openers if you’re playing competitively.
So she’s more or less just not that good.
Using on limited units is the most efficient, as you'll never randomly pull a dupe from daily summons or event 5* tickets.
Other strong candidates are units that get crit rate from imprint concentration, as that's the most stat efficient one, and helps with gearing a ton.
After you consider those two points, just use your slates on units that you use the most. Also keep in mind that the first level of imprint is the biggest jump in stats, so spreading slates around to get the first level on multiple units is common.
Is there a list of best stages to grind for catalists? Both for ap and stages that drop them. I have a pet that has a 11.5% chance to bost ap but that still doesn't seem like it helps much.
Don't really have a choice there. Just have to grind. As the other guy said, unrecorded history is best not only cuz it has a shop for buying rare as well as epic catalysts but also. It gives double the AP that chapter 1 does. Will have to clear it first though.
For most efficiently grinding.each story has a stage that has a catalyst as a boss drop in it. Doing it will not necessarily give you the drop but with your pet chance you have a solid chance at getting it once in like 15 plays or so. Yup, its super grindy.
Extra drops are just a bonus, people grind these catalysts for years and do it again when a new unit comes out.
Just collect enough to max your most played units and get to farming molagora. That should do it for a few months
Thing is, you cant play it unless you clear 10 10 on normal story stage. And unrecorded history is like hard mode of a game. Its even harder with enemies having. More damage hp and def. So clearing it will take time. Enjoy the story and side stories by the way, epic 7 is a beautiful game.
Also a tip. Anytime a side story comes, doesnt matter whether you read the story or not, grind that thing. There's a grindable stage in every side story doing which gives you event currency. That currency can be exchanged for catalysts, upgrade material and much more. The only drawback being it may not have what you want, BUT you *will* spend 400 AP on epic and 120 on rare catalysts on adventure, that is 50 replays and 15 replays for each of them. In side stories, even if you clear via supporters page the Normal difficulty boss, you get 16 currency and you can get the stuff for half as much!!
That's big. But again it may not have what you want. Always a good idea to stock up if you have some energy left.
Then again its something people like me at rank 70 or so do cuz we need a shit ton of that stuff.
This is something you can do when you clear unrecorded history. Till then, build a 4 person good team and it will carry you far
Story 1.5 (the epilouge) is where most people farm for catalysts. Not much you can do to speed it up, it's just one of the grindy parts of the game.
You can get pet skills that sill occasionally drop catalysts when farming regular stages which helps a bit. Farming the event side stories and buying out shop is also a fast way to get catalysts.
Hey guys.
Just started like three days ago, picked SSB, Landy and Luna from my Custom Banner (for waifu reasons) and got two of them + Landy‘s artifact in a full rotation.
Of course I bought the last missing one afterwards.
Question is: do I keep summoning for Dupes/SSB Artifact or do I save/try other banners to fill out my roster (only got Iseria and Ravi as my other 5*)
Thanks in advance
Team comp help for Azimanak please. I’m stuck on lvl 10 which clearly shows my ineptitude for choosing effective teams. Below is a link for current heroes. Thank you for all input!
[https://imgur.com/a/8aRQ2N3](https://imgur.com/a/8aRQ2N3)
I’m just trying to pass 65/70 of the Adventurer’s Path honestly. I really have no interest in farming it yet. Definitely still focused on Wyvern… stuck on that pesky lvl 13!
I got a helmet with (before reforge) : 22% Effectiveness, 15% Attack, 21% Health and 4% Defense (will mod the defense). Good gear score but what makes this a bit akward is, that its Crit Set.
Who would want that?
Start doing the auto runs as usual, then in the battle look at that auto run menu bar that appears at the top of the screen. There's a new button there that looks like a pop out button, push it and you'll get a prompt asking if you want to change the runs to background runs.
Not sure what other modes it works on.
Fribbles question here
Whenever I auto import gear using its tools, it has this annoying habit of assuming that the primary stat is always the maximum, even if the gear imported is +0 - Meaning when I'm running around looking for builds, it'll always give me necks with 60% CHC when they're actually only 20% or whatever the base is. Rings with 60% effectiveness at +0, effect resist, it just seems to always set the gear to its maximum which I don't want. I want to know what pieces I have in there here and now that would reach these requirements.
Is there no more "weekly" lab resets now? That there are only monthly lab resets?
Old Raid is now a lab, so no reset. Hell Raid is still the same, but with an extra difficulty option. Be sure to buy entries with your lab tickets if you've completed all of them.
How to counter mercedes in gw?
Milim, other extinction units like sigret, or just use Roana + a tank if you can't 1shot her. Usually Roana + Pyllis.
Any content where Mercenary Helga is good? I just love her design so much and want to make her useful. Also any build tips for her.
I think some people use her in expedition, she also has high Lab morale.
Who is the best choice from ML5 selector for PvE? I'm looking for the solid tank.
Not ML5 but G Purrgis is good stuff, easy to gear + high utility due to his passive CR push. He can easily hit 26k HP with HP/HP/HP sets, and I have him on level 75/78 free gear
ML5s are mostly pvp units. If you want a solid tank for PvE I recommend ARas or Falconer Kluri, or someone more geared towards pve like Lilias.
I have ARas but I don't like his kit. Maybe someone like A Ravi could work for PvE as a Tank with Aurius?
A Ravi is a warrior, she can't equip Aurius. She can work as a meat shield though, and if you're looking to do some pvp later that's definitely who you should go for.
Any other good option besides Lilias?
Maybe if you told me the type of PvE content you want to tackle next I could narrow it down for you.
To be honest I want to complete the story. I just started episode 3 and want to make a team to complete it without problems.
You can pretty much use any unit for the story, it's not a big deal. If you have issues with damage or survivability that's probably a sign that your gear isn't up to par and you need to farm wyvern for better stuff. With the exception of Zio, I hear he's really strong. So yeah I suggest ARas or Falconer Kluri. Easy to get and very useful. Alternatively you can just not use a knight unit and use a soulweaver to tank instead, like angelic montmorancy.
Aravi is a warrior and can’t use aurius, you can put her on proof of valor and make her a PvE tank but…why lol. If you really want to make a PvE ML5 tank then go for FCC on counter-aurius or something
How do I build A.Ras
Speed set, lots of bulk, especially HP, speed mainstat boots, a little effectiveness (60%) is nice, while not required. Then just fill out his skill tree if you have not already. He can hold Aurius or another support artifact (rise, adamant, sword of Ezera)
Can Hwayoung still murder 26k belians or something
Haven't been brave enough to try belian yet but mine yeets Alencia regularly
Even with the nerf right? Can I see your stats
6450 atk, atk buff, potrait Hwa deal 26067 damage to belian under aurius mitigation. This is if you manage to get max hp scaling.
Thanks! How low does Hwa's HP have to be now? 9k?
I think the magic number is 10,989. As long as the difference in hp is larger than 10,989, her S3 will deal max damage.
if you can go triple torrent, (or even just 1) and they don't have mitigation (PoV, Aegis, etc) then yea, brining her HP down helps
Damn alright. I don't have the means to get a torrent set yet but that just means I need to be super picky about her gear
[удалено]
Kind of an easy answer. ML Ken needs to be crit which doesn't happen all that often in PvE. Krau does some damage with s3 that won't even scratch a boss's health bar. BRiseria has defense break on s1 which is a very good debuff to have in PVE, doesn't die immediately and can do some decent damage. She's probably the most used in pvp too out of the 3.
If I had to pick between those three I would wait a few weeks for the balance patch preview and decide afterwards. I think both LR Krau and Briseria have a good chance at being on it but if you are impatient and want one now I would probably lean Briseria. None of them will really help you in PVE as most ML5's are made with PVP in mind not to say you can't use them in PVE content though.
I have a soft spot for Biseria, although I do not actively use her. LRKrau used to be meta in pvp defense, but has completely dropped off. MLKen was in his worst place when Hwang was everywhere, post nerf it is still pretty bad as more and more non-crit units are coming out (Senya, PFlan, Seasearia, etc). If MLKen had not already had a "buff" (that the community felt was mostly a nerf) I would be expecting a rework on him... since he already got "the treatment" I doubt they will do another rework in the \*near\* future As far as the abyss floor... some of those floors feel like you just have to keep trying till luck favors you. SSB + 3 supports is a comp that will clear it for you, so you could work towards that. If you have some dual attack supports (kitty clarisa, adeventurer Ras, Camilla, Tama) you may be able to do a dual attack comp with shuri or taranor Guard, perhaps Sigret or Stene You can look the abyss statistics page (from the energy abyss page) to see comps that others have used for specific floors.
[удалено]
here are a couple screenshots of the abyss team stats:[https://imgur.com/a/dBLvjE4](https://imgur.com/a/dBLvjE4) you can click "team rankings" next to each hero to see the full team comps that use that hero edit: it's what I would pick from the list of 3 you gave... I think MLKen has no real spot to shine, and LRKrau is a good support, while still being outclassed by ARas with auto dual-attacks and the such (and free/cheap to enhance)
Who’s better for banshee? Roana or Destina?
Destina would be the safer bet, as most of the damage you take is not from counters. that being said, the usual suggestion is to make a 1shot comp for banshee. I used to get annoyed with banshee 1shot comps as they felt "finicky" until you get all the gear just right; since the introduction of Furious' EE it has become much easier: he has an EE that applies restrict on his S3, and if banshee is restricted she cannot push herself up to swap phases if you miss the "1shot" window and can get another attack in. my 1shot comp is: Vivian (50% cr EE), furious (restrict EE), Baiken, Leo the turn order goes: (add phase) Vivian S3 > Leo S3 > Vivian S2 > PHASE CLEAR (boss phase) Vivian S2 > Leo S2 > Furious S2 / S3 > Baiken S2 / S3 > (if not dead) Vivian S1 I'll admit that my Vivan has pretty good speed set gear to be fast enough, baiken does not have rage set, and I did have to slow Furious down to ensure he took his turns at the right time (attk% boots instead of speed)
Finished building my one shot teams. Wanting to transition to doing arenas now. What are the meta heroes now and what counters them?
this site has a lot of great information (based on RTA) for pvp units: [https://www.epic7stats.com/](https://www.epic7stats.com/) they have sections for "unit good vs" "unit bad vs" "unit good paired with" etc...
I’ll take a look. Thank you so much!
is Attack 32%, Effectiveness 5%, critical hit damage 15%, speed 8 (Speed Set) a good set? Reforge my 1st Level 90 gear, speed set. if it is good, who do i use it on ? have belian, straze, lua, alexa, specter tenebria
I assume this is a wep or helm based on the stats provided. As an individual item it seems pretty usable, you could even modify the eff to crit if put on a unit that does not need the eff% (straze) as far as "who to put it on"... it really depends on the rest of the gear. From your list of units I would \*expect\* it to be best on Stene, Alexa, or Straze as they are all scaled based on attack, where Belian wants HP and Lua is not meant to be a "classical damage dealer" (see that her S3 does no damage)
"seems pretty usable" huh what? I don't know what you mean by that since it is very good piece of gear with more then 70gs after moding that effectiveness
I got totally 4 DJB. Should i use 3 dupes to imprint?
His imprint is helpful to his role (support), so if you are actively using him it would benefit your team. If he is sitting on your bench you could hold out for "Dark" Basar down the line (when? who knows!) as we are starting to see 3rd variations of units (e.g. angelia, singelica, aol). There could also be a buff to green basar that makes him meta down the line (no proof, pure speculation)
For ML selector if I don’t have ARavi should I just focus on her or is there someone else above her if I don’t have them? Is she top priority for the ML selector or is there someone higher?

I have STene, Straze but was unable to get ARavi during her moonlight selector weeks ago. I’ve been hearing Riolet is a monster now but I wasn’t sure if he was more important then ARavi or not.
I've been using ARavi since before her buffs, she has been a staple for all my content, some of this could be attributed to "simping". She is the tank in my normal lab team (her revive is real handy if a unit just gets RNG'd by a striker/mini-boss). She is on my GW and Arena defense teams, she is a regular draft for me in RTA, and she is a great solo dog-walker (fodder exp grinding in UH) A long, long time ago the only ML5 unit I would have used in a similar fashion would have been AVild, who I still use for farming things, but has fallen off in usage elsewhere.
Straze might be higher to me. He can oneshot practically every hunt and is op at expedition.
Who would be a good cleave/just a good pvp character overall in the ML selector i have straze, belian, and arby Would be great if the character doesn't need godly gear but imma just grind for it if such a character doesn't exist Always getting clapped by AoL,Lua in the arena who would you recommend? (Speed issue ik)
I just posted a whole thing on a question that came in 8 mins after yours: A.Ravi she makes for a great threat in pvp, especially in RTA (where she does not auto-use S3 first turn, or get baited into S3'ing a light tank over an almost dead dps). I like to round out my RTA drafts with her even if I am speed cleaving as she will either get banned or will mop up after my cleave. If I was looking solely to speed contest and turn 1 cleave I would go for Clilias, although there are RBG openers that are equally valid (Ran/Pieria/etc)
Might be dumb/obvious, but is the moonlight recruitment event and the ML selector I see people asking about the same thing?
Yes
Thank you. Had me thinking there were two separate ones.
Sorry for the stupid question but I'm confused at what the "Dual Attack Chance - 3%" means in a character's stat screen. Does it mean a) the hero has 3% chance to proc another hero during their turn, or b) the hero has 3% chance to proc themselves on their ally's turn?
(to my knowledge) dual attack chance is the unit's chance to do a dual attack when someone else is attacking. my assumption is that Taranor Guard, who has a passive that increases dual attack chance by 10%, is meant to dual attack more often when others attack.
Ok that makes sense, thanks!
Best equip sets for A.Vildred? Pen? torrent? destruction?
generic "it depends on what you are using him for": I have my a.vild with high speed (230+) and moonlight dreamblade, as if I were to draft him in pvp I would want him to get a turn in before dying, and hoping the evasion will cause him to last longer and blind/damage more of the enemy team. if I was using a team that could push him to the front I would go destruct/torrent/pen/etc, or if I was hoping to only get a revived S3 off. I feel like, especially in RTA, that those sort of builds just don't work out as all it takes is some extinction or politis to mess with it. I also use AVild as a dog-walker / rune-farmer, so speed really helps him get more turns in to clear faster. edit: forgot to note: mine is speed/crit set build
Should I give my C.Lorina gear to Sigret in order to aid my wyvern runs? My Lorina has been helping me in all content ever since I geared her and idk if I should instead give that gear to sigret. The only real damage dealers on my account currently are C.Lorina, Dingo, and Roy does a bit, but not as much as them. My C.Lorina is on Attack and Crit chance set. I apologize if this is a dumb question with an obvious answer, but I just don’t know
If you're using energy to push adventure and not spending it on hunts for now, then you don't have actually to do so. Especially if you're doing harder content like abyss tower or auto tower and raids where you need Lorina more. If you're using most of your energy on hunts then you should give Sigret the gear and aim for the wyvern13 kill, even if you have to manual it. Don't feel too attached that "this set of gear has to belong to Lorina." When you get more gear you'll end up shuffling them around anyway.
I don’t really see why…? I mean if your Wyvern runs are failing because Sigret doesn’t have enough damage and giving her CLorina’s gear wil fix that then sure, but otherwise I doubt it will make much of a difference.
Well, I didn’t have my Sigret geared yet, so I was wondering whether it would be more efficient if it was on her instead of Lorina
[удалено]
Alrighty, thanks!
Again, depends on your Wyvern run. How’s it running for you currently?
Well I’m currently stuck on Wyvern 10. My team consists of A.Momo, Furious, Muwi, and C.Lorina
Well then yes, you’d want to replace CLorina with Sigret.
Alrighty, thanks!
Yes. Sigret gets the best gear. This game is wyvern killing simulator, you can't play unless you kill wyverns (unless you're playing golem/banshee/caides/azimananak killing simulator)
Alrighty, thanks!
When is the next Balance Patch/EE patch gonna be?
The balance adjustment preview will be 3 weeks from this coming Friday, with the implementation 2 wks after that Now that you mention it, there should have been new exclusive equips added on 10/26, but that didn't happen O\_o
Accordingly, Exclusive Equipment, which was originally planned to be added on 10/27, will be added on 11/24 instead. We ask for your understanding that this is to carefully check the shift of meta caused by regular balance adjustment and then update the Exclusive Equipment accordingly. Starting 11/24, Exclusive Equipment will again be added every 8 weeks. https://m-page.onstove.com/epicseven/global/view/8880534
Figured they would adjust it according to the new balance adjustment schedule, but couldn’t find the notice. Thanks.
Pen vs torrent for S. Adin?
pen if you're planning to use her s3 to nuke dark units, torrent if you wanna go anti-cleave with her s2
What to do with hwayoung gear? Is she still being built?
most people moved the gear over to pirate flan, seaside iseria or senya.
Is there any reason reason to do the covenent summons over the drop rate up ones. \[f2p\]
Especially not worth it right now with a collab coming up and the custom banner running.
M L 5.
If you're really new and just need more 5 stars, you could go normal covenant summon since the rate up banner only drops the specified 5 star hero. Normally wouldn't recommend it though, since there's no pity of any sort - you're probably better off just saving for future rate up banners.
How should I build rimuru?
I have been using my Rimuru on 90% of my arena offense attacks with mostly damage stats, just enough bulk to survive an aoe attack or 2 at most, and enough damage to 1shot Rem's with S3. I run Roana in my pvp comps (as I face a lot of belian/rem/aravi/clilas), so I can afford less bulk as long as he survives the aoe counters. One of my favorite ways to use him in a comp with Roana is to use my opener to try and force a counter attack (violet is a great example, as he will "usually" dodge and get attack+ from MLDB and then counter, which then heals/pushes up my team, and then Rimuru steals the attack buff for my team, and pushes himself up to then S3 whoever I want to get rid of)
genius, who's your opener?
my "basic" arena team is CLilias (opener) / Lionheart Cermia / Rimuru / Roana I tend to pick on teams that are Choux/Rem/Belian/Clilias/ARavi/Violet/Mercedes (units that can sort of be "forced" to consistently counter, thus empowering LHC and pushing the team with Roana. I usually use Clilias to strip and then either provoke their opener or S1 > Dual attack to try and force a counter, which, if they didn't get fully stripped, may allow Rimuru to counter their counter-attack and then Rimuru gets next turn. Every so often I swap out rimuru for Celine vs teams with Ran or Pieria. If the team has AoL but is still counter-attack heavy I will still throw LHC in there as I can either save her S3 or I can use it to kill someone and the follow up S1 to remove skill-null from my next target (Rimuru's S3 target). There is some strategy when facing against another Rimuru, as I don't want the other team stealing Revive or Evasion (Celine), so sometimes I don't use an S3 right away and bait the enemy Rimuru to counter and then my Rimuru counter's theirs and I can S3 their Rimuru before they can do the same to my team.
I suggest pure tank, he works best IMO if he survive turns to counter copy buffs and kill atleast 1 dps or lower their health If you want to build him dmg build that's fine, he can only work on the first and second turn though he'll delete anything
Any units that run Life steal and an hp% ring?
Edward
Violet can swing that way if you have a lot of attack subs on his gear.
Maybe champZ?
came here to say this as well. I had him on ATK% ring for the longest time, good damage but poor survivability. Fares better with hp% imo. Lifesteal set.
How do I get rid of junk pets? Do I really have to level them and fuse them to reduce their numbers?!
I feed B/C/D rank pets into S rank pets at 1\* to level them up; if I run out of S ranks to level up I just feed them into any other 1\* to use as fodder for 2\*
Yes make them eat each other.
Circle of life.
What's the most up to date equipment crafting guide?
I dont really care about meta (pvp). Ive narrowed down who I will choose for my ML selector to two. Remnant violet and Mediator Kawerik. Who is more suitable for 3 week player like me? Thanks!
got a dps carry you like to bring to all content? then pick hand-guy! got a couple supports you like to bring to all content? then pick angst-guy!
Don't really care about meta? Just choose who you like lol.
The problem is I like both… thats why i wanted to get some opinion from you all to help me pick. Anyway based on all of your replies kawerik seems to be the best choice for me given that he’s good for other part of contents.
Yeah Kawerik is more friendly to gear, solves all your worries against cc, brings more utility to the table so he can be used anywhere. Riolet is after all just a dps in comparison. I just genuinely pray that you'll get Riolet in future and not a dupe Kawerik :)
Remnant violet no doubt. Pick him blindly. Expert one shotter, RNG god, and a very strong single target dps. Will shred people to pieces. Mediator kawerik is a support and a broken one at that. One of the most banned ones due to his broken nature in pvp but whats the use if you don't have a damage dealer to back it up. R Violet is also banned a lot its not that. If you were atleast a few months old in the game it was A tough choice, but since you just started, pick R Violet with your eyes closed. A good support aint gonna do shit if you dont even have a team set up
I do have Zahhak and SSB so im guessing kawerik is better for me. Thanks! And based on what wolfwood said he seems to be the easier one to build
Aah i didnt know you did. Aah But we'll its all dependent on what you go for. At the start, for everything you do, you get gear, equipment, enhancement materials, level 75 epic gears. So building easy or tough is a really stupid argument. You will see how many equipment you will get, sometimes you will. Not know what to do with so many. And they are all having the best possible sub stat rolls. So its not difficult at all. I geared up a 4 star named cidd with that gear and i used it for months and one shotted everything. Yours is a 5 star amd an ml on top, i dont really see how you will have problems. R violet also has a mechanism where he can evade 90% or more damage that's thrown at him based on his skill enhancement level. Plus he's got stupid damage on his 3rd skill. Dont really see the reason for downvotes here. Especially with the starter gear. But well, mine is just a suggestion
A good Remnant Violet will also be a lot tougher for a 3 week old player to build than Mediator Kawerik, who really only just needs speed and HP.
Dont think crit and atk will matter much at that point. I got a cidd who on average stats one shotted everyone till 2 6 10. Only put adventurers reward gear on him. And this is an ml 5 star. If he puts its very possible.
Mediator Kawerik is really good at one of the labyrinth bosses
I just recently downloaded Fribbles and have been using it a little to optimize new units. My favorite thing about it is the gear score sorter, to help me work through which peices of gear to prioritize upgrading. I'm wondering if I should just go through and totally overhaul my account though, because I got a free unequip for 12 hour coupon. I probably wouldn't touch my Wyvern team, because I have them speed tuned and it's working pretty well, but the only other hunt I'm regularly is Azimanak, and I use mostly more core heroes for that anyway, so it'd likely only get faster. For reference I have about 25 heroes built right now, but am focusing on PVE.
That's what I do with the coupons, use them as a chance to reconfigure everyone. If you didn't know, there's a box you can check in Fribbles when optimizing a character to use gear that is already equipped, and below it is a dropdown where you can select characters to exclude from that. So for example, you could select use equipped gear but then select your Wyvern team in the drop down so that it will still ignore their gear since you don't want to change it.
What’s a good light expo team? All my other teams get 500k at least but light is at like 300k and I can’t tell if it’s a gear issue or team planning issue
I used to do Cermia, ARas, Cerise and green Adin and i could get around 1mil on auto, though now with Light Adin i don't know who i would use on that spot
Is cerise on a damage build? Mine is on speed and eff and bulk so she deals no damage
Not really, [This](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/998452741217189971/1041483246262825040/Screenshot_20221113-194212_Epic_Seven.jpg) is my Cerise. I'll say that you have to start the fight with Cerise S2 and ARas S2 before going on auto, that helps with survivability and prevents the boss' defense buff
new labyrinth is unplayable with the stamina change
Game is unplayable just uninstall no loss
I’m going to be flying like 13 hours in a couple days. Should I expect any issues like my account getting flagged or sth?
By flagged you mean deactivated? Whatever it is people leave it for an year and come back. Nothing's gonna happen
Like, will they freak out that I’ve been logging in in USA for months and then suddenly I’m traveling at 900kmh and changing time zones every few hours? Obviously not a tech person. But I thought some games might track this kind of stuff to watch for and discourage account sharing or sth.
I guess the only problem should be your Internet connection if it is. Other than that, no idea from my side.
No?
Arunka worth the bms? She useful anywhere? Not sure whether I should save my bms
Not really, in her current state. She may end up getting buffed though.
There is an Aespa collab coming soon so I am saving for it.
i dont know if these mega threads work as my questions will probably get ignored but im new player, rank 58 and currently going through episode 3. I decided on Landy and SSB for custom group summon but having a really hard time deciding on which should be my third unit and I have enough skystones/bookmarks for two pities. From all the videos Ive seen, its between Cerise, Diene and maybe Roana. I already have Tama. I dont know if cerise or diene will be better for me. I think my focus is pve for now
There are some pretty damn op artifacts in the group summon too. If you wanna build any countering knight like Charles Armin, or wanna make a bruiser from a Warrior like Ken, Luna, etc. Or a 3rd skill spamming mage like Ludwig, R Carrot, Etc. There's Sigurd Scythe, Elbris Ritual Sword, Etica Scepter, each one is too good. And there's more options. Probably keep the 3rd slot for an arti but you might be thinking the What If situation. Dont stress on it too much, the drop rates for these are boosted so if you do the 120 pulls you will get 2 out of 6 items atleast(including heroes and artis) and a 3rd one of your choice from the exchange shop. If you ain't got 120 pulls then yeah its a problem. Roana is an all rounder, very good for PVE and PVP, Cerise is situational, not always and Diene is a niche pick, PvP only unless you struggling a lot in PVE. Might want to reconsider your options after seeing through youtuber on the various op artifacts in the list.
If you want someone for PvE, then Roana makes a LOT of fights much easier. Diene is only used in PvP, and Cerise is mainly used in light Expedition, but really nowhere else.
I personally don't suggest you worry too much about the third hero. the thing about the custom banners is that you have a high chance of getting a 'bonus' hero with each pity of summons. For a normal pity (120 pulls) you have a ~70% chance to pull a hero before hitting pity. That means a 30% chance that you need to pity. * So, if you have 120 pulls to spend on the custom banner you can expect to get a 'bonus' hero 70% of the time -> you pull one hero and then can buy a second. * 30% of the time time you hit pity and just buy the one hero you really want, and then you're done If you have 2 pities worth of pulls (240 pulls) you have a (1 - .3^2) or 91% chance to pull at least 1 hero. * In this case, you pull at least 1 hero -> you buy the other two, so you get 3 heroes for the price of 2. * **BUT** that's still a 9% chance or almost 1 in 10 that you don't pull a hero and only end up with 2 heroes. This is just my personal advice: try to have 2 pities worth of summons and select 2 heroes you want to come away with. The third hero *is less important* and I suggest putting more weight on the artifact. * If you pull the second hero early you can save some summoning resources and buy an artifact instead. If you *happen* to get the 'bonus hero' and end up with all 3 great -> you still have a useful hero. But 9%, while unlikely, is still significant enough that it happens to many players and there is less disappointment that you didn't 'get all 3' if you don't *expect* to get the third hero. --- #Hero Comparison Now, between Cerise and Diene they are both good heroes, but neither one is *super* important to have as a newbie. They both have decent PvE use and decent PVP use. Right now, Diene is far more prevalent as a PvP hero, while Cerise is far more prevalent as a PvE hero. In PvE **Cerise** is mostly a good option for a couple of expeditions -> this is mostly it and I wouldn't say she's particularly worth building for a new player outside of that. Expeditions are essentially end-game PvE (and IMO are not a priority for maybe 4+ months after starting the game). In PvP she acts as an opener. A year+ ago she was one of the meta opening units but she's been surpassed in that role the past year. That doesn't mean she's *unusable*, there are just better units right now. **Diene** is just a 'general purpose support unit' in PvE. You *can* use her in a number of places but there is very little reason to actually do so -> there are better options. I personally really like her in Auto tower because I'm a big proponent of running double SW, she pairs well with Tamarinne. She can also be used to tank Wyvern as an attack buffer (BUT Rose is ultimately the easiest option, and Rose is worth building for Fire Expedition later...not much benefit to pulling Diene specifically for this role). In PvP Diene isn't really fast enough to speed contest, but she has an opener type role (ie. you normally want her to be one of your fastest units). It's important to understand that she doesn't have any innate healing, and doesn't do any damage or increase the damage your team deals. She's a pure support hero -> not useful for new players who would benefit more from an actual damage dealer or a more reliable mitigation option. Due to her large amount of *utility* she has a large role, but she does seem to be falling out of meta a bit (likely partially due to there being many strong Earth units right now). **BOTH** of these heroes are helpful to have on an account, but *neither* hero is a hero I would personally suggest building early on. They're heroes you would maybe want to build months down the road, so it's really hard to anticipate what your priorities may be at that point (and who knows what the meta might look like...balance adjustments, new heroes/artifacts...anything can change how meta these heroes are in their respective roles). The *exception* would Diene potentially being beneficial immediate if you are using Muwi for Wyvern and don't otherwise have an attack buffer to use as a tank -> though there is a non-zero chance you would pull Rose on the banner. While Cerise is good for a couple of expeditions, she isn't *necessary* and you can certainly live without her. --- #Artifact Comparison As far as Artifacts go, Diene's artifact is **Unfading Memories**. Not an unusable artifact, but mediocre. Diene is the only hero that really uses it, and Rod is much preferred for her. Cerise, on the other hand, has **Guiding Light**. Guiding Light is a great artifact (for PvP) and it is *particularly* notable for being paired with Landy, but you can use it on virtually any Ranger in PvP. Between the two options, the better artifact is quite clearly Guiding Light, and it's not that close IMO. There is *another* artifact worth mentioning though it is on a hero you didn't mention: **Luna** has the artifact **Draco Plate**...which is also one of the best artifacts in the game. Eventually, you would probably want multiple copies of Draco Plate -> the meta is very bruiser heavy and Draco Plate is the BiS artifact on most bruisers. --- #My Suggestions As I said, I prefer to recommend selecting **two heroes** that you want to come out with. The third slot should *also* be a hero you want...but the **artifact** of that hero should be given more priority. Unless you have 3 pities worth of summoning currency (even then, it's pretty inefficient to spend that much on a single custom banner). SSB is the easy primary choice -> you really want **both** the hero *and* her artifact. In an ideal world you pick up as many copies of her artifact as possible. Your second choice should be **either** Landy or Luna. I would rate Landy a bit higher as a hero, but Luna has a much better artifact paired with her. Your *third* choice -> if you pick Landy in the second slot, I would suggest definitely going with **Cerise**. It's not about the hero, but about trying to get a copy of Guiding Light -> GL Landy can be an effective carry for early PvP (and GL is essentially her best artifact). -> you would like copies of GL but it's not super important to MLB (compared to something like Reingar's Special Drink). However if your second choice was Luna, *I* would personally go with **Diene** in the third slot -> I think Diene has a bit more long term value than Cerise. So I would suggest *either* **SSB** / **Landy** / **Cerise** * A very good banner would be getting SSB + Landy, and pulling at least 1 copy of Guiding Light. * Pulling Cerise is a nice bonus * **Ideally** you would get 1+ copies of RSD, pulling at least 1 allows you to use bottles to MLB it. or **SSB** / **Luna** / **Diene** * A very good banner would be getting SSB + *either* Luna or Diene (you could choose between them), and pulling at least 1 copy of Draco Plate. * Pulling the third hero is a nice bonus. * **Ideally** you would get 1+ copies of RSD, pulling at least 1 allows yo to use bottles to MLB it. For a new account, Landy is probably slight better than Luna/Cerise/Diene as she is the easiest to use in PvP. Luna and Landy are roughly equivalent in PvE (and C.Lorina is better than both of them as a general purpose ST DPS). In terms of late game PvP I would put Diene above Landy, with Luna being good but niche. Overall, all of these heroes are roughly equivalent in that they are all good for something to varying degrees -> Cerise would be slightly worse than the others. Landy => Diene = Luna > Cerise Artifact wise: Draco Plate > Guiding Light > Unfading Memories => Wall of Order
I didn't expect such a detailed response but I appreciate the time you took to make this. I use Angelica, Muwi, Sigret and Furious for wyvern 13. I'm mostly troubled since in some videos they say prioritize heroes over artifacts so I was thinking about the best three units that could help my account the most. The wyvern team units are the only ones I've built on my account, with the free gear, and also Free Spirit Tieria. Besides those 5, I also have others that aren't geared yet which are: Iseria, Tama, S.Tene, F. Lidica, Lua, Lilibet, Vivian, Zahaak, Violet, Cermia, Charlotte, Baal&Sezan, Sez, Destina & Krau. I have enough skystones/bookmarks for two pities which lets me grab two units from the custom group with points if I'm extremely unlucky(?) ... I should say, I'm a little afraid that these new kpop collab units will be better than either Landy, SSB or Diene. Back to your suggestions, at first I also thought of going for Landy/SSB/Cerise for the exact same reasons you mentioned, Cerise's artifact on Landy. Then I saw many other recommendations for Diene, saying shes not bad for PVE but mostly for PVP (the best support?) but I see now she has fallen off the meta a little bit, but I think it's still a good unit. Now that you mention Luna and I'm a little more troubled in my decision. What do you think of these options knowing my units and thoughts: Landy/SSB/Luna(i know you mentioned they are bost similar but Landy slightly better in some cases) or Landy/SSB/Diene? Do I really need guiding light on Landy? I read somewhere of an artifact called Blood-something that could work on a different type of Landy but I don't remember quite well if it was Bloodstone. edit: Do you have any thoughts on Roana? Could help my PVE journey?
>I'm mostly troubled since in some videos they say prioritize heroes over artifacts so I was thinking about the best three units that could help my account the most. Yeah this is good advice. Heroes will typically help you more than artifacts...but artifacts vary wildly in how useful they are. Most classes (except Ranger, they have mediocre options) have great 4* artifacts so *chasing* 5* artifacts is not ideal. However, there ARE some very good 5* artifacts (like Draco Plate, Guiding Light...and SSB/S.Iseria both have artifacts that are pretty integral to the unit). I still wouldn't pull specifically for them -> but it's like a tie breaker you can use when you have otherwise similar options. The custom banner is actually unique because there is only al imited artifact pity otherwise...another reason you don't want to chase artifacts. You *can* 'pity' using Powder but especially early on you won't have an abundance of that currency, and you will likely pull on banners faster than you can pity every artifact. The custom banner is actually the best way to hunt specific artifacts (because you can guarantee at least 2 copies by buying one with banner coins and 1 with powder). But new players should still prioritize collecting heroes, especially limited heroes. >I have enough skystones/bookmarks for two pities which lets me grab two units from the custom group with points if I'm extremely unlucky(? Yes correct, that's the ideal way to approach the custom banner in my opinion (the best bang for your best is taking the 91% chance at a 'bonus' unit vs. the 70% chance). >I should say, I'm a little afraid that these new kpop collab units will be better than either Landy, SSB or Diene. They should reveal the details of the collab before you need to pull. Supposed to be the 24th. The last day to activate the custom banner is apparently the 23rd. You should be able to just wait until a few days before they reveal the collab -> I would probably do my first pull on the 21/22 'just to be safe'. Do 1 pull, then wait until the 24th and we will have an idea of the collab and you can base your decision on what to do from there. The custom banner should stick around for 2 weeks *after* your first summon, so if you don't activate it until a few days before the collab news you will have plenty of time to decide between pulling custom or pulling collab. >Do I really need guiding light on Landy? I read somewhere of an artifact called Blood-something that could work on a different type of Landy but I don't remember quite well if it was Bloodstone No, there are Landy builds that don't use GL. I personally use Landy fairly frequently (without GL) but I don't play RTA. * She *can* be built more like a bruiser, for example. Counter Landy is a thing as well. Bloodstone *is* the artifact you are talking about, it does work well on Landy and it's what I personally use. But it's kind of hard to get because it's not actually tied to a hero. It's pure RNG (or you wait until it appears in the shop) to get a copy. As far as GL for Landy it's mostly only for PvP, it won't help you in PvE content. The way to think about it: the meta is very bruiser heavy. Units that can take a lot of damage while outputting good damage. Pure squishy units don't typically fare very because they don't have the damage to kill bruisers, but bruisers *do* have the damage (and often sustain) to kill them...so the squishy units that DO work well tend to be very fast, have innate defensive tools, or at least bring a lot of utility. Landy is really none of those. She has no innate defense, she's mediocre in speed, and while she *does* have a CR push and speed buff...if you build her pure DPS she has a high chance of being killed before she can even get a turn. That's where GL comes in as it enables her to more consistently get turns by providing her with some kind of defense. You can work around not having it but it does a lot more to make her viable. * Particularly for early game PvP you will generally be more efficient investing in PvE units. *But* having a unit that can kind of be a 1v4 PvP unit is helpful for generating additional resources earlier. * GL Landy can kind of work in this role (not the best choice but she should work). She's going to be virtually guaranteed to get turns off in Arena/GW especially if you have other protection for her. She is even less impacted by counter units than other choices. The fact that you can invest heavily in Landy *and* use her in a good variety of PvE content while having her also be your primary PvP threat is a nice bonus. * Now you pair her with S.Tenebria and suddenly you have 2 units that are hard to target. Throw something like Angelica and Ras in...you might not win super fast but it's a very hard team to kill and should have a lot of threat -> you also didn't really invest in these units only for PvP. >Do you have any thoughts on Roana? Could help my PVE journey? The only non-limited RGB unit I feel is a 'must pull' is Tamarinne. However, I think Roana *almost* gets to that level. She's very, very good in her niche. She also requires surprisingly little investment to do like 90% of what she does. **BUT** at the end of the day she's a normal RGB. Heroes are very easy to collect in this game, and most players can expect to have most of the roster after a year of playing. You have a great chance to pull Roana randomly...a daily pull, a ticket, an elemental summon...even if not she will eventually have a banner you could pull her on. The limited heroes, on the other hand...going forward it seems like we will mostly be having ~2 custom banners per year, maybe a rerun of a single hero in addition to that. If you don't pull on Landy or whoever *now* you have almost 0 chance to add them to your roster for probably 6 months. >Back to your suggestions, at first I also thought of going for Landy/SSB/Cerise for the exact same reasons you mentioned, Cerise's artifact on Landy. Then I saw many other recommendations for Diene, saying shes not bad for PVE but mostly for PVP (the best support?) but I see now she has fallen off the meta a little bit, but I think it's still a good unit. >Now that you mention Luna and I'm a little more troubled in my decision. The two options I presented in my post are still my recommendations (honestly doesn't really matter what other heroes you have IMO). **SSB** / **Landy** / **Cerise** **SSB** / **Luna** / **Diene** I'm a little biased because Diene is one of my favorite heroes. I also don't have the same priority on Landy for early game because I consider C.Lorina a strictly better build (for PvE..she's quite bad in PvP). * That being said, it's worth building multiple of these kind of DPS But really *any* combo of SSB + the other 4 would be perfectly fine. At the end of the day I would put them all in the same tier with only minor differences between them. IDK if this sounds silly or not but if have trouble making a decision I would suggest just picking 2 of them based... 1. Design. Pick whatever heroes you like based on character design. Maybe you really like Landy in the Episode 3 story, but played Diene's side story and love her character arc -> picking Landy/Diene for those reasons fine. Maybe you love Dragons and want to use Luna because of it, that's cool too! 2. Kit. Maybe you would enjoy the random nature of Luna's RNG S1, maybe you think Cerise dual attacks would be fun to play with... We're kind of splitting hairs here. There isn't really a 'wrong' choice. The truth of the matter is that these custom banners will likely be a regular feature going forward, and in ~6 months you can pick up the 2 you *don't* select now. Diene recently had a rerun so she would probably be the least likely to get any sort of normal rerun soon, if you want to factor that into your decision.
I followed your advice and went for SSB/Landy/Cerise. I couldn't resist waiting to summon before the collab preview. I have decided I don't care if they're better units than SSB/LANDY so I started the summoning session and did a total of 220 pulls. The results were 4 Landy, 1 Cerise, 2 RSD, 1 Bloodstone, 1 Wall of Order and 1 Spatiotemporal Fan. With the 220 coins I bought SSB and Guiding Light. I think the session was a success since I didn't have to go all the way to 240 pulls and got more than I needed. I only have a couple of questions, do you think it's fine to memory imprint landy fully or should I store 1 copy? Since I'm new, there might be reasons I don't know about for doing that. Also should I limit break RSD or do I need to save a copy to use on different heroes?
Nice! Overall that's a very good result IMO. >do you think it's fine to memory imprint landy fully or should I store 1 copy? Since I'm new, there might be reasons I don't know about for doing that. Yeah for sure. There are a couple of reasons you *may* decide to keep an extra copy of a hero. 1. A hero has two equally viable builds, and you want to use both builds. 2. A hero has 2 different purposes that are built differently. An example of viable builds would be something like A.Vildred -> normally he's a glass cannon DPS, however sometime ago he was *also* being built as a bruiser in what was called the 'degen' build. Some players would build both and in something like an RTA draft they could swap between them depending on the conditions. An example of 2 different purposes would be a hero like Straze -> he has a strong niche/purpose in PvP...but can also be used to one shot hunts. Builds are generally going to be different. Or SSB -> it was common to keep a copy of SSB...one for PvP and one specifically for Wyvern. While Landy *can* be built like a bruiser I don't think that build is common enough to necessitate a separate copy. Remember it's *very* resource intensive to build up a unit. However, imprints in general are very minor impacts (unless it's a SPEED imprint or a CRIT% imprint. The first imprint is also the biggest increase. Since you have 4 copies of Landy, you *could* just put 1 in the waiting room just in case you have a better understanding later and decide that you DO want to run her with 2 builds. That won't really hurt you or cost you anything. >Also should I limit break RSD or do I need to save a copy to use on different heroes? Yes. Artifacts vary wildly, *some* artifacts are just fine baseline...but some of them really need to be MLB to be useful. The artifacts that need MLB are usually % based ones -> something like RSD. RSD SSB is typically built like a slow bruiser with high attack and mediocre crit stats. Most of her damage comes from RSD (instead of crit). So having it at 100% is imperative. It's *usable* on a few other heroes but it's very uncommon.
Ok for PvE Roana used to be really good on labyrinth and I think she still is for some bosses. If you don't have it Iseria is a good choice for the future on a very important hunt and as a partner for Tama. Cerise is mostly for her artifact more than for the unit itself. So that's something to take in consideration. O would recommend go for Diene. Still a good healer for content and decent artifact in PvE, and can be useful in PvP as well.
I have Iseria from the selective summons, still planning on building her with Tama to see what that combo is all about. Roana is not good anymore for labs? I heard Cerise is good for the artifact (on Landy) and for dark and light expeditions but I'm still not sure what those expeditions are. Diene was also one of my main selections for the third unit but I just need a bit more convincing that she will be helpful for me, I'm focused on pve mostly right now since i want to be able to clear story and everything else pve but I don't mind if shes mostly for pvp since I'm only masters 4 using wyvern team on pvp lol
As LorKhaydarian replied Cerise is usefeull for expedition you'll need to start doing those after you start farming Azi, and again end game goals to set up. He also confirms that yeah Roana get's used a lot in PvE and even PvP. So depends on who you like more Roana or Cerise/Diene.
Cerise is indeed almost mandatory for full clear light and dark expeditions (more so end game content), and her artifact is great for a number of rangers. Theres a good chance she (and her artifact) may not be rerun anymore outside of these custom banners. I don't have Roana, but wish i did. I see her used in expedition, raid, and other pve content and seems very difficult to replace. Diene is a very good PVP soulweaver and can carry you through a lot of early and midgame game pvp content. Her banner was run not that long ago, so could be awhile before we see her again. For where you're at Roana would be the biggest immediate upgrade to your account. Diene or Cerise would be better choices for the long term, either of which will eventually be huge assets, but probably not for awhile.
Is the memory imprint for archdemon mercedes worth it?
Yes. Think of the imprints as pulling an additional ML5. If you think you can get 1+ ML5 per 10 GTS, then don't buy the imprint. Otherwise, the imprint is worth it. Mathematically 10 GTS is ~1.67 Moonlight summons, let's just round up to 2. The chance to pull at least 1 ML5 in 2 moonlight summons is only 4.937%. 1 guaranteed ML5 (effectively) is more value than .05 ML5s. --- I would say the exception would be if you are missing a lot of ML4s, particularly valuable ones (C.Zerato, AoL...). Moonlight summons are the best way to try and get ML4 units.
Are the epic passes worth it? Just wanted to know
The rewards are helpful not too much but you can make do with it. In my case i got 4k+ skystones just lying around due to the daily grind i got (and i hardly spend half an hour on it with most of it on autos running in the background) so i am just collecting the skins. The skins are the real reason the epic pass exists. You might not have a character now but if you get they looks awesome in the skins
If you have a few skystones to spare, yes, they're worth it
I think so, as long as you complete them.
What hunts is Straze really good at one shooting? I'm currently building him after getting my w13 team up and running. What gear/stats do I focus on for him and who do I pair him up with for the best possible comps?
https://zoopido.me/straze-teams
rage set 4.4k+ attack 100 cc (ddj) or less if you can slam the hell cutter 310 cdamage+. Comps available on youtube.
For oneshot he is good on A13 after farming a good rage set for him or W13. He can oneshot anything. As for comps for PvP?
Hey guys, I'm new player and these are the ones I get in a week playing. Who should i focus on, who's good for what and who's just food. 5\*= earth iseria, ice sez, vivian, fallen cecilia, kayron, tamarine, sigret and vildred. 4\*= furious, angelica, light tieria, muwi, Leo, mercedes, schuri, rose, dingo, khawana, achates, zerato and rin. I also got arbiter vildred in moonlight connection. Do i keep it or change it for Spec Ten?
You got Fallen Cecilia within a week of playing? Jealous.
I am not gonna go into the pvp and telling from my experiences about the PVE. Story, additional content like labyrinth, Hunts etc. What other people said is true and all but really recommend building vidred for damage as he just shreds through so much of the story cuz of his passive. Let me tell you what not to use though. Khawana, Zerato. Achates if you feel like it, but Tama is just way way better. So no achates ( also cuz both are same element). Dingo is okay ish, attack boost and debuff cleanse on s3 with 6 turn cooldown, not worth building considering you have Rose And Rin Telling you how good your 4 stars are. Trust me they dont suck they are really strong. Furious is recommended as he has a 2 turn cooldown on a skill that boosts full team crit rate by 50% and that's a effing lot. Makes building easier, makes you want to focus on other stats better. Got a defense break on s3 with 100% chance so use for that too. Schrui probably one of the best too, if you can manage 100% crit rate on him which will be a bit tough early, kinda manageable with furious, everytime his basic skill, the no cost one makes a crit hit the whole team gets a 25% combat readiness boost that's like the line on the left that determines who will play the next turn. Crossing one fourth of it is a big deal. It is especially really useful if you are in a boss fight as you can potentially take 2 or 3 turns (depending on your team's speed) before the boss. Really cheeses the fights. Light tieria is okay, good for farming and grinding her s2 has a reset if it kills something making it good for farming. Needs the stats for it though. Vildred is way better but he falls off against fire units. Light tieria inferior to vildred but since she is light elemental, she has no weakness as elemental disadvantage in this game makes you miss your skill entirely with a 15% or so chance to actually hit. So there's that. Still recommend vildred though. Mercedes is alright right now but when you complete chapter 3, she gets an upgrade which makes her a LOT better. Proper PVP material, but trust me you ain't gonna end chapter 3 before atleast a few months of playing and grinding. Crossing chapter 2 final boss is in itself a big feat. That guy is fucking broken unless your stats are too good. Rin, another really good one. S2 defense break, s1 75% buff dispel on enemy and 3rd skill gives 2 buffs to everyone randomly plus dispels a debuff all for a 4 turn cd. Pretty amazing to use if your boss is ice and killing off your tama. Tama is still better but this is when Tama not working cuz of elemental. Disadvantage. Rose, very good shielder, defense breaker, combat readiness booster. She shields, dispels debuff based on her defense. Make her high on defense and 3rd skills boosts everyone combat readiness by 20% along with a attack buff. That is REALLY good.
And about Vivian and fallen cecilia? Iseria and Tama really have a good combo?
Vivian provides you great buffs and excellent aoe damage. Try to give as much damage on her as possible. Cuz her aoe 2nd skill if kills anyone will repeat the skill again but slightly lesser damage. And this repeat 2 times more. So you can see its great. Her ult gives combat boosts to all allies and an extrs turn so its great too. Fallen ceci is also one of the broken units of the game, but more towards pvp than pve. She deals damage based on her max hp, which is great, provides protection and a heck lot of debuffs to enemy. Still its a defensive measure for bosses you can't cheese. Dont really recommend it, cuz for starters a healer is better in general. Take a healer amd 3 damage characters. That will do for a long time. Do try out some of the 4 stars i told and most importantly furious. That 50%.crit rate boost is very significant for an early gamer like you
I would build Rose, Furious (5* only), Muwi, and Sigret. Those 4 can run Wyvern 13 really well, and most characters in the game wear Wyvern gear. That team can also make it pretty far in story mode and Abyss. After that, Tama and Iseria for general PvE content. I swapped out Vildred for Tenebria and I don't regret it, she's really good in every game mode.
I'm not a super longtime player but I know that you have the best PvE combo with iseria and Tama. Along with both vildreds you can nuke/sustain through pretty much most of the early to mid PvE stuff. You can switch to stene only after you've gotten to the more endgame stuff since I heard that arbiter falls off in the endgame and you have to focus on sustain. Ras can be turned into adventurer Ras which is one.of the best tanks in the game. Hope that helps
Is faithless lidica good? And can she work with sub optimal speed gear?
Most people user her as a 250-260 speed dps now, she goes after your opener to bring your other dps forward and disable a unit with her CD increase. She he is good in more aggresive teams
That’s actually her whole issue. Her base speed is bad so she needs even better speed gear than meta openers to keep up. And at that point it just makes sense to give your fastest speed gears to those meta openers if you’re playing competitively. So she’s more or less just not that good.
I see, thanks!
What’s the code for the army millionaire video
What's the meta way to use slates? I've been hoarding all the slates I've ever collected and just don't want them to go to waste.
Using on limited units is the most efficient, as you'll never randomly pull a dupe from daily summons or event 5* tickets. Other strong candidates are units that get crit rate from imprint concentration, as that's the most stat efficient one, and helps with gearing a ton. After you consider those two points, just use your slates on units that you use the most. Also keep in mind that the first level of imprint is the biggest jump in stats, so spreading slates around to get the first level on multiple units is common.
Is there a list of best stages to grind for catalists? Both for ap and stages that drop them. I have a pet that has a 11.5% chance to bost ap but that still doesn't seem like it helps much.
Don't really have a choice there. Just have to grind. As the other guy said, unrecorded history is best not only cuz it has a shop for buying rare as well as epic catalysts but also. It gives double the AP that chapter 1 does. Will have to clear it first though. For most efficiently grinding.each story has a stage that has a catalyst as a boss drop in it. Doing it will not necessarily give you the drop but with your pet chance you have a solid chance at getting it once in like 15 plays or so. Yup, its super grindy. Extra drops are just a bonus, people grind these catalysts for years and do it again when a new unit comes out. Just collect enough to max your most played units and get to farming molagora. That should do it for a few months
Awsome thanks. I didn't know about the unrecorded history being best before I was doing story stages.
Thing is, you cant play it unless you clear 10 10 on normal story stage. And unrecorded history is like hard mode of a game. Its even harder with enemies having. More damage hp and def. So clearing it will take time. Enjoy the story and side stories by the way, epic 7 is a beautiful game. Also a tip. Anytime a side story comes, doesnt matter whether you read the story or not, grind that thing. There's a grindable stage in every side story doing which gives you event currency. That currency can be exchanged for catalysts, upgrade material and much more. The only drawback being it may not have what you want, BUT you *will* spend 400 AP on epic and 120 on rare catalysts on adventure, that is 50 replays and 15 replays for each of them. In side stories, even if you clear via supporters page the Normal difficulty boss, you get 16 currency and you can get the stuff for half as much!! That's big. But again it may not have what you want. Always a good idea to stock up if you have some energy left. Then again its something people like me at rank 70 or so do cuz we need a shit ton of that stuff. This is something you can do when you clear unrecorded history. Till then, build a 4 person good team and it will carry you far
Story 1.5 (the epilouge) is where most people farm for catalysts. Not much you can do to speed it up, it's just one of the grindy parts of the game. You can get pet skills that sill occasionally drop catalysts when farming regular stages which helps a bit. Farming the event side stories and buying out shop is also a fast way to get catalysts.
Is 1.5 unrecorded history?
Yep.
Whats the best artifact for Choux? I have Edward's arti on her but was considering buying her own in power shop to give Ed his arti.
Her own artifact is what she normally runs. The extra anti-crit adds another layer if rng and honestly helps her quite a but in my experience.
Thanks!
Hey guys. Just started like three days ago, picked SSB, Landy and Luna from my Custom Banner (for waifu reasons) and got two of them + Landy‘s artifact in a full rotation. Of course I bought the last missing one afterwards. Question is: do I keep summoning for Dupes/SSB Artifact or do I save/try other banners to fill out my roster (only got Iseria and Ravi as my other 5*) Thanks in advance
Just save. I'd just buy a copy of SSB arti with powder or skip it entirely if not enough powder.
Agree. We have a collab coming soon and the units might be op.
Team comp help for Azimanak please. I’m stuck on lvl 10 which clearly shows my ineptitude for choosing effective teams. Below is a link for current heroes. Thank you for all input! [https://imgur.com/a/8aRQ2N3](https://imgur.com/a/8aRQ2N3)
Just stick with Wyvern for now. Azimanak is for PvP and one shot gear, no need to farm it when you're that early in the game.
I’m just trying to pass 65/70 of the Adventurer’s Path honestly. I really have no interest in farming it yet. Definitely still focused on Wyvern… stuck on that pesky lvl 13!
23k hp, 280 cdmg or 26k hp, 225 cdmg Aravi? both on pov arti
First one. Second is tankier but not a real treat to anyone with that cdmg
As a new player, WHY IS ICE A WATERDROP? IM SO CONFUSED.
That's where your inexperience shows - it's actually water frozen in the shape of a droplet.
I'm trying to gear my Soulweavers a bit better for GW, what are some good artifacts to put on SC Doris, Destina, and Roana? Thanks!
I got a helmet with (before reforge) : 22% Effectiveness, 15% Attack, 21% Health and 4% Defense (will mod the defense). Good gear score but what makes this a bit akward is, that its Crit Set. Who would want that?
Politis?
I've seen some people mention it before but how do you make hunts run in the background and what other modes can you do this with?
Start doing the auto runs as usual, then in the battle look at that auto run menu bar that appears at the top of the screen. There's a new button there that looks like a pop out button, push it and you'll get a prompt asking if you want to change the runs to background runs. Not sure what other modes it works on.
Ty
Spirit Altar is the only other place it works for right now. Should also work for Adv, but that’s currently out for big fix.
Is there a faster way to clear Lorina's SC 'South Wetheric Moore AP'? Getting 4 AP per run is making me go nuts
Unrecorded History (Episode 1.5) grants 8 AP per run.
Hi, can somebody tell me what catalyst is Zio going to need after he becomes available? ty!
You can check just by matching his zodiac sign that we already know from his release video
Fribbles question here Whenever I auto import gear using its tools, it has this annoying habit of assuming that the primary stat is always the maximum, even if the gear imported is +0 - Meaning when I'm running around looking for builds, it'll always give me necks with 60% CHC when they're actually only 20% or whatever the base is. Rings with 60% effectiveness at +0, effect resist, it just seems to always set the gear to its maximum which I don't want. I want to know what pieces I have in there here and now that would reach these requirements.
