Wishlist/General Summon Suggestions

Banner Hero Yes/No

No Current New Banner Hero

Wishlist Suggestions:

This is my personal suggestion list, everyone will have slightly different opinions, and I'll try to update this as things change

Note that while this is a kind of "generally useful" list, you can narrow down your preferred options if we know what kind of heros/weapons you already have, and what you prefer to focus on (Colo? Arena? Story? etc....)

Mix of use heros that might be good to get for various reasons:

GENERAL USE (Usable on multiple teams, and in more than one type of content)

  • Tier 1: Eunha*/Beth/Daisy/Dabin/Idol Eva! (Idol Eva is Free for new players from basic training mission later, don't summon if you can get her for free)
  • Tier 2: Gabrielle/Erinia/Noel/Kamael*Tinia and Kamael can often be used as "secondary" raid heros, someone to fill in when a hero is missing or unavailable, due to their debuffs, also both can apply their debuffs with off-element weapons

"SOMETIMES" USE (Usable in multiple places, but not often):

  • Tier 3: J/Kahlor

KEY HERO FOR ONE SPECIFIC MODE (Mostly raid, some key heros are "general" heros, those are not included here)

  • Tier 1R: Randi/Lucy!/Orca!/Wakamo!/Yun!/Callie/Lacrima!

SPECIFIC HEROS THAT PAIR WELL WITH THE ABOVE IN SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCES:

  • Tier 1S: (Useful in a few cases):Chocolate Collector Ameris*/1st Corp Commander!/Miya*/Yuna/Noel/Clara/Arabelle/Andras*/Beach Rie/Tinia* See Kamael note above
  • Tier 2S: (Each Useful in one specific case): Ruri(With her own exweapon or Hakura's)/Vishuvac! (With gauntlet)!/Ameris (non chocolate)/Dohwa!/Nari/WinLing!/Plague Doctor!/Lillith!/Scintilla/Saya
  • Tier 3?S: Mikke!/Kanna! -- Note that the current optimal team for Mikke/Kanna in raid uses Alecia who is no longer available, if you don't have her and her weapon you'll use White Day Girgas in the basic melee raid team, which is not presently useful in raid

Also--Somtimes-Useful rare heros: Knight (with Libera-bow)!, Sometimes Karina! (although not often)

Note that some heros need their exclusive weapons to be useful at all, and some heros just would prefer it for a power increase, also at least one hero (idol eva) doesn't unlock the most valuable portion of her kit until she's been myth evolved (and you've activated her latent awakening that enhances her support ability)

To clarify who needs their exweapon, I've added a symbol after the hero's name:

  • ! This hero is absolutely not useable without their exweapon, they always want to be using it in any/all circumstances
  • * This hero will usually prefer their exweapon (typically in same-element teams) but can be used with other weapons sometimes optimally
  • (No symbol) This hero will use their exweapon whenever possible, it's the best use case for them in all teams they'd be useful in, but if you don't have it, you can make due with another weapon, but it will always be sub-optimal
  • There's no heros who prefer not to have their own ex weapon.
