Best Candidates for Merge Project

So i had a Post before but its older and wont get answers anymore so heres a new one:

I'm torn on who to put on my main team that i also use to Complete these Insane Chain challanges im only missing the red slot im planning on Merging as far as possible and yes i would have a Spare Hector/Nepheene but still am f2p bound
Also consider that i kinda want a mixed semi tanky unit to survive the chain chalanges that matches well with a healer. Those are my current options, the number is the total of copies i have:

7 Athenas
11 Selenas
6 Soleils
11 Lon'Qs
9 Firs
11 Caedas
11 Hanas

All of them i have with IV's i like (+atk for slena/caeda/Fir) defensive ones for the others(superboon on def/res for Soleil/Athena)

so who would you pick and how would you built him/her? i also do have all sacred seals available. ty for any suggestions.

If you're looking for a tanky (I'm assuming a physical tank?) unit, then Fir, Lon'Qu, and Hana is most likely out since they're probably the squishiest of them all.

Selena is pretty tanky, 32 base defense, and you have 11 of them, meaning you can get a +10 Selena.

agreed Selena was my first choice especially with the high res too but the thing with Selena is
1. with plus 10 and a defensive oriented Wo-dao+ at 47 might wich is not alot
2. one of the older low BST units (but thats ok as they are easyer to access)

Really like the statline i do actually have -hp+attack selena but wouldnt fury wither her down too fast, as for every ranged attack she takes she gets 6 "bonus" damage?

Report

Yeah, Fury is for getting her into Desperation range, allowing her to double units (if they don't have Wary Fighter or something) and charge her special faster. If you're wanting her to tank ranged units as well, then Fury might not be the best decision if it doesn't fit your play style.

Of course, you did say that you'd be running a healer, too, right?

Report

aye i normally go with the standart healer + Quick reposte or alot of speed thing and baiting/countering the enemy and the healer would help to hold her in QR range

Report

I recommend Fir, her new weapon is really good and she's fun to build. She has great Res, so she will be a good mage tank, her HP pool is also pretty good.

Report

I don't use anyone here but Soleil so I'll give what I can.
Since you have a super boon for Soleil, and several spare merges, she makes a very good user of a Wo Dao or Slaying Edge and Distant Counter to be a very good melee duelist and green mage check. Without offensive boons, she still shines as the hardest hitting red sword in the game, and she still has pretty good spd as a bonus. You can give her Fury 3 to boost all her stats, run her with Desperation or Vantage in the B Slot depending on what phase you want her to be, and an atk or spd smoke skill in C. She appreciates short CD specials like Moonbow, and Glimmer, and obviously a Dual Rally, Repo, or Draw Back would be good assists. SS could be Close or Distant Defense if you do give her Distant Counter, or Heavy Blade to use longer CD specials and make use of her sky high atk.

Edit: a spd or a defensive stat refinement on her sword is also a good idea.

Report

She would still double quite a few enemies, but with the inflated stats in CC she may have trouble. Wrath would only be really useful to have her kill an enemy she shouldn't really be fighting in the first place. Quick Riposte is also a very good option on her, especially against ranged units if she has Distant Counter.

Above all, go with your favorite unit of the bunch. All of them are nice and can serve you well.

If you don't have any preference: Super biased here, but Hana makes an excellent merge project--especially since you already have 11 copies. (I already have her at max merge, so I can attest to how well she works.)

If you don't like Hana [ :( ], you can go with Caeda or Selena because you already have the 11 copies. They are both tanky, though Caeda is more of a Res tank, and Selena leans to the more physical. But if you still don't like those two, then Fir is pretty nice with her high Res and great Proficient weapon.

Report

the Favourite would actually be Athena (Character wise) /she has defensive superboons but i see were your coming from to only invest into units that you have 11 of for the maxed +10 (wich is kinda my worry too) Soleil would probably be the choice but as shes only 4-5* and i only own 6 im kinda hesitent

Report

You can still build them up even if you don't have 11 copies. It takes a while to get the 200,000 feathers to fully promote them, so you can still pull the extra copies in the mean time. Also, all of them except for Soleil is available in the 3- and 4-Star summoning pool, so they should be easier to find.
