Early Team Tips

Team Building

Hey all, just started playing this game this week. I'm really enjoying it so far but am pretty confused about what I should be doing.

Some of the better units I have are: Destina, Vildred, Aramintha, Lidica, Yuna, Requiemroar, Shadow Rose, Clarissa, Lorina, Shooting Star Achates

Currently have Destina as frontline and Vildred as my first 6 star. Have no idea other units I want to use though.

I understand that I would need several different teams for different PvE content, but I'm wondering what units I can invest in as all-rounders that can be effective in many types of content.

Also, what things should I be mainly focusing on in PvE?

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks :)

Keep leveling fodder with Vildred and make a full 6* team asap.

You will want to use Clarissa. Start working on a Wyvern team as you will want to farm some decent speed sets first as they make content much easier / faster. You can get Crozet from connections to tank, Specialty Change Montmorancy, Aither and Clarissa should work ( or swap a healer for another dps if you can, Alexa with joker is very good).

Goodluck!

Clarissa is definitely worth upgrading, as a very well-rounded warrior offering both solid damage and def break she can definitely work as a potent component for most of pve teams, especially wyvern hunt. You definitely should invest in shadow rose too, as she is both a great CR manipulator(CR = combat readiness = turn order during the battle) which is useful in pve and very important in pvp and is also a very reliable def breaker. Rose being a knight also means she can equip quite a variety of support artifacts.

And yes, hunts are the most important pve content so far, allowing to farm crucial crafting materials and other resources, wyvern and golem are two most important hunts. Elemental types are very prominent in this game, bringing for instance water type characters to fight earth type is utterly frustrating, so generally speaking you want your team to have types effective in the content you are aiming for, blue and red characters vs wyvern, green and red vs golem and so on. Light and dark type characters are effective against any other elemental types offense-wise, however light is susceptible to dark and vice-versa in terms of defense. Focus on pve, but don't neglect arena too, as it gives a solid amount of skystones (commonly referred as ss) both as the first promotion reward and every Sunday with arena weekly rotation. Not only ss, but it also gives you conquest points, which can be exchanged for great seasonal gear and some rare materials in the shop.

Have you built a consistent w11 team? (Manual/auto?) This should be a high priority since speed set gear is really important for all aspects of the game.

I would definitely put Clarissa in your main team. Get her to at least 5* and 4* awakened. I started the game with Vildred, Destina and Clarissa and I've used them for a lot of different type of content.

For a starter team, go with a tank, DPS, DPS, support or tank, support, support, DPS.

Tank is usually your healer.

DPS you have Vildred for wave clearing but might have troubles when fighting bosses.

Because of this you either need a (1) need a secondary DPS that focuses on single target dmg such as Lorina - but she needs decent investments to be really good or (2) have a unit that is able to do Def break, build them very speedy (200 or more SPD)to go more often or 11 SPD faster than your dps, with 55% effectiveness. For starters I recommend Taranor Guard, the one with the spear as he has 75% to inflict Def break. Other notable is Clarissa, but you'll need to mola her a bit. Shadow rose is also a good choice as she can strip and Def break.

Last character I recommend to go with a support. Someone who can apply buff to the party. Personally I will go for atk buff, crit buff and SPD buff. Since you have Yuna, I recommend to build her speedy for her to keep her buffs up.
