Returning player here, and struggling

Discussion

Hey guys, I'm a player who left just shortly before they added Fushu. I came back roughly a week ago, and am honestly just lost.

My I1 Phantasio and I2 Psyche feel like they hit like wet noodles in Ensemble Act. I can barely get 1% damage on lv 90, not even 0.1% on Lv 110.
I got I0 Flora, and even she feels pretty underwhelming, especially against singular bosses. What's the deal with everyone using her and somehow dealing millions of damage even with the same team as me?

I've also seen some people using weapon loadouts with Foldover Dexterity and Arrow Abundance. Where can I get these? The demon wedge casket shows me that I get them from a blueprint, but I can't find the blueprint to save my life. Even a Google/Youtube search hasn't yielded any results.

Has it been made easier to get wedges to +10? Last time I played, getting wedges to +6 or +7 was already a struggle due to the amount of resources you needed and difficulty of acquiring blueprints.

I've been solely farming weapons this past week, since Thorned Requiem is recommended for Flora. What is so good about it? The effect seems pretty meh to me, and you don't want to use ranged weapons on her, no? Should I rather smelt a lot of weapons first? Back then, it was much better to get your characters to i6, though a dupe or two of Embla was considered decent as well.

Overall, what would be the recommended way to go for now? Should I just try to i6 Psyche, Truffle and Fina? Are Phantasio and Tabethe still worth it? What about i7 Rebecca? Would it be better to get Arclight Apocalypse and Dreamweaver's Feather to S5?
