I ended up building them all because they're really cheap to build like, seriously, it's cheaper to max out every single 3-star, 2-star, and 1-star than it is to max out a single 6-star, and now you can actually follow the low-op clear tutorials

OK. If I am to talk about 3 stars. VG raise fang, don't Vanilla and plume. theres a few LS stages that want more vanguards but courier, vigna, are just leagues better. Medics, Raise ansel, not hibiscus. ansel's occasional double heal and range make him useful even with other options, wheras hibiscus is just underwhelming. Defenders. Cardigan Has HP, Beagle...has defense, spot can heal others. IS, I would recommend using a gummy instead if you are lacking medic vouchers. I sorta prefer cardigan of the 3 because HP pools are still valid in a variety of situations. whereas spots use is when you want to stall so you can just stop attacking. which is useful in some situations. but if you are using him as a source of heals? use jaye or gummy or podenco. or a medic Supporters. just orchid. she functions. Snipers. Kroos. the other two...? no. go for 4 stars or higher. Guards. uh. I mean, we got arene who is better than midnight by alot (and frostleaf is worse but...) 4 star Centurion would be estelle which ability to e2 would go leagues. do we have a 4 star melantha? I guess melantha is good. the other two you won't have a use for. Casters. steward's special targeting make him clutch. Lava?I wouldn't bother with, use pudding if you need AOE arts.

@marielcarey4288 Жыл бұрын
I strongly doubt Adnachiel deserves to be on the same tier as Steward or Ansel, he sucks. Probably bump up Ansel and Steward, or bump down Adnachiel and Beagle. Consistently low damage really isnt good, especially on a 3 star, and he cant do the single job of an anti air sniper right either. Midnight seems alright, Beagle i might just not be using enough but shes extremely outclassed by Cuora, who's a free defender, and not much pricier to range with a way better s2 to boot. Or is she still free? I do not remember. I also believe youre underrating how good Fang and Cardigan are. For Cardigan, the self healing comes in handy. For Fang, the dp recovery is respectable, she blocks, and is relatively tanky. Also i remember Plume being pretty good for newer players, thanks to her low dp cost and sub class, she's quite important for the early game where you actually have to think about dp. The abundance of slugs and weaker enemies really helps her too.
@AlbRomano Жыл бұрын
While Cuora is no longer free, her 4* status makes her quite common anyways. And to be fair to beagle, Cuora still outclasses the 5* ops, and even Hoshiguma, on occasion. When it comes to defenders, new players also get a guaranteed Dur-nar, giving them a more offensive option. That same hand pits Hibiscus against Gavial and Fang against Courier. The recruitment system used to dish out Spot and Popukar's upgrades in Gummy and Estelle, but after more ops were added to the pool they became much more rare. Kroos is still the GOAT.

Thanks for the compliment! Though it's a coincidence that I have covered many lesser-tiered operators, the mediocre bit actually comes from the fact that these guides are simple (no data graphs, comparisons, etc), just a quick, (hopefully light-hearted) how-to sort of thing.

My 3 stars either got maxed immediately because I loved them (Kroos and Fang. Specifically) or I intentionally avoided building them until I was trying to follow a guide with my higher level units and despite my efforts my better operators were either too expensive or just didn't do the same job from the guide I was following (I'm looking at you, Midnight)

@Calvados6569 ай бұрын
Even if you dont do it immediately you should absolutely build every 3*. While it may not be cheap to build when you first start they will become cheap pretty quickly as you progress and as the video points out they all lean into their roles particularly well and are cheap to deploy. I built out and max pot all mine fairly early (though I didnt realize how good Malantha was and she ended up being one of my last to hit E1, 55 I also got a Franka early so there is that) and never regretted it. If you intend to use low end guides when you inevitably get stuck you are likely going to have to build them up anyway unless you get lucky on pulls so you might as well get it out of the way early if you can.
@Calvados6569 ай бұрын
If you get any if the following you can likely put off on building the 3* equivalent though just be aware the cost in both LMD and materials will increase exponentially should you do so: [Vanguards] Texas 5* and Scavenger 4* is a direct upgrade over Vanilla Zima 5* and Courier 4* is a direct upgrade over Fang Reed 5* and Vigna 4* is a direct upgrade over Plume [Guards] Franka 5* and Matoinaru 4* are direct upgrades over Malantha Lappland 5* and Arene 4* is a direct upgrade over Midnight Specter 5* and Estelle 4* are direct upgrades over Popukar [Defenders] Cuora 4* is a direct upgrade over Beagle Nearl 5* and Gummy 4* are direct upgrades over Spot Cardigan doesnt really have an obvious upgrade as she is a bit unique but Matterhorn 4* is probably the closest thing to a direct upgrade. [Snipers] Greythroat 5* and Meteor 4* are direct upgrades over Kroos (though Kroos will always be viable even with upgrades available, shes just that good) Adnachiels talent just makes him too unique to have a true direct upgrade Meteorite 5* could sort of be considered a direct upgrade over Catapult but Meteorite cant replicate Catapults 30 seconds of doubled AoE size. [Casters] Gitano 4* could be considered a direct upgrade over Lava but cant replicate her helidrop potential quite as well. Steward like his friend Adnachiel has a unique talent that makes it hard to give him a direct upgrade [Medics] Folinic 5* can increase her range by 1 tile and Myrrh 4* can heal extra allies more consistently but Ansel can increase range by 2 tiles and passivly heal extra allies without relying on skill activation (though the extra heal is RNG dependent as a trade-off) Hibiscus... Pick any single target medic. Literally any. Probably the easiest 3* to pass on if you want. [Supporters] Most decel binder supporters can be considered an upgrade over Orchid (unless their name is Earthspirit) but because of how fast Orchid can attack and thus slow targets you wont see a true direct upgrade to her until 6* Angelina with her S1 and DEC-Y module at stage 1.
@novatopaz98809 ай бұрын
I'll just say to this, while I'm here: The template for upgrades is about right, though I'd say Matoinaru doesn't really feel like an upgrade to Malantha simply because her skill options are ones which *reduces her defense*, when their minor defense is sometimes the only thing keeping them alive, and the other is just... A *cardigan style heal*. It's effectively a malantha for casters, when Malantha can already do for cheaper. Though, I guess that's personal opinion engrained from knowing the mechanics of the game, and how *bad* 0 defense is for that. You have to give me something more than +120% attack to make me consider building it worthwhile, lol. Like Franka's defense ignore talent getting buffed. That, and Steward technically does have a upgrade: It just so happens it's unfair, because it's a 6 star which has the option to do so as her S2. I, of course, speak of Coebe. But well... It's a skill. Not a talent. But it's the only "true upgrade", you could say, of steward. But otherwise, yeah, not really fair to say anyone is a direct upgrade of him otherwise.

Man, poor stewart. He has a niche, but it's filled by amiya for the entirety of the time you'd use him. Also worth mentioning: Cardigan is the only 3* operator you can't get from recruiting, which is really unfortunate because I greatly prefer her over beagle for a decent chunk of the early game. Never really understood popukar. She always seemed way too squishy for me to use, without enough damage to feel worth it, and you can get quartz (I know what you're going to say, I find her durable enough for the comparison, shush) for free using red certs. Any chance you'd be willing to make a similar list for no-gacha units?
