Main Team Help?

I love my boys to death and they serve me well with great syngery, but I’m feeling like something is lacking from their usual spark. I’m struggling with their specials right now, along with Legion’s build, so any pointers to fix up this group would be greatly appreciated!

Reinhardt’s strictly player phase, Azama is a mix of chip damage and tanking, Ryoma’s strictly enemy phase and Legion’s a mixed phase damage dealer/glass canon/whatever Reinhardt and Ryoma don’t kill he cleans up.

They are all my Merge Projects: if I can get merges for them I will merge them, and if there is room for IV improvement I will go for it - I will go the extra mile for these four, so there’s no real boundry for the skills they need except the RNG.

Azama looks fine, though you could give him Savage Blow seal for a bit extra pain.

Ryoma- if you want to-
Slaying Edge(Def)
Reposition
Bonfire
Steady Breath
Swordbreaker
Atk Smoke
Close Defense

Legion- Let him get into Desperation, and then destroy what lives with Moonbow
Giant Spoon(Spd)
Reposition
Moonbow
Fury
Desperation
Anything
Flashing Blade

Reinhardt- Give him Lancebreaker, and merge him into a +Atk one. He can also go with Heavy Blade+Moonbow once he's +Atk.

Let it be known, I have never, ever, ever gotten a plus attack Reinhardt. If I did, I would def change him out.

My worry with Slaying edge and swordbreaker is that it doesn't have the distant counter Raijinto does and keeps Ryoma from killing foes that may overwhelm him if he doesn't strike first, which I felt was key to him being such a good enemy phase unit, but I see what you're getting at with it - I may invest into bonfire, though. Atk smoke may take a while since my only owner of it is currently on a team.

Huh, never though of flashing blade on Legion... I might investigate that, see if I can't look into maybe breath of life for Legion or something?

If you want to stick with Raijinto, then I would give him the Distant Defense seal from Azama. To help him deal with mages better.

I don't have anyone to give Azama Distant Def as an A skill, so for now Ryoma will take Close Def.

Man, I need to power up my seals!

Thank you!

Triple post. Lol.

Rip me...

Now I just need a +Atk Reinhardt

May RNG take pity on you.

When it does I will have many legendary Hector, Libra and Azura at my disposal

I'll start with the specials because you asked specifically.
- Kindled-fire balm is fine; the alternatives are imbue for a bit of extra security if teammates are taking damage and he isn't or miracle, because with guard and 36 def and all that HP he's probably going to achieve it.
- I'd like a lower cooldown special on Ryoma. Glimmer is reasonable if you're trying for OHKOs (it's a gamble with the benefit of firing often), otherwise go with either draconic aura or bonfire (without buffs they'll currently do the same damage).
- If you're using giant spoon, you probably want something that activates more frequently so you can take advantage of that +10 more often. Moonbow probably does quite well here; my general sense is that moonbow is one of the specials that most likes the +10.
- Moonbow is the conventional special on Reinhardt, especially with QP., and it works.

Couple of other points:
- Love to see players going for the characters they really like. Full support.
- Nice touch on Azama with the distant + close def
- You'll probably want to change the IVs on Ryoma I'm guessing? That looks like -spd, which I guess is ok if for some reason you want him to get doubled, because that's what's going to happen nowadays with this amount of speed unless you're against dragons (besides flying Tiki or F.Grima) or slow tanks such as armours.
- I'd give Reinhardt either a breaker, or wings of mercy if you want to be fancy. Swordbreaker would really help this team - Ayra, Karla, Soleil, Hana, all these swords that would double and bust Ryoma just drop like flies against Reinhardt.
- Are you trying to tank red mages with Reinhardt? Why does Ryoma have res tactic?
- Your current Reinhardt has an atk bane, so keep looking for one with an atk boon unless you're trying to do that funny owl tome thing with him (he does do it better than most blue mages)

Fire Kindle balm does jack most of the time since I kind of keep forgetting to heal until after it's use has past, so I'm considering heavenly light as an exchange.

I'm thinking bonfire for Ryoma, since I really only swapped it off of moonbow because I liked the animation and it looked prettier (and more fitting for Ryoma, but I'll probably flip to Bonfire).

Ok! Legion's a bit of a wild card since I was initally going to have a four legion team but then fused them all so he has. a lot of stuff under his belt I don't remember having, so I bet Moonbow's in there somewhere.

Ryoma and Reinhardt are subjected to IV changes as my fricking luck in the RNG allows. Let it be known I have never pulled a + attack Reinhardt, and if I ever do it will be a sweet miracle that will also grant me Legendary Hector.

Ryoma still has that seal from my attempts at the fire garden and I forgot to change it. I will def fix that.

Reinhardt tends to also have Lancebreaker but I might have changed it for a challange and never fixed it, so I'll see about trying that too.

Thank you!

Four-Legion team sounds funny. I'd be delighted if I encountered one in arena

I have actually found a Four Legion team! All of them were four star and base kit, but it was hilarious. Wish I got screen shots.

Your Reinhardt looks like he's -Atk. You couldn't have gotten 6 -Atk Reinhardts in a row.

I confess to being stupid and fusing non bane Reinhardts because I didn’t look and thought my Reinhardt didn’t have an attack bane. In fact, it’s possible I missed at +atk and didn’t notice...

You can make fun of me, I’m really stupid.

EDIT: I’ve had this -atk Reinhardt since the first banner he was introduced in. I wasn’t serious about the game until shortly after the PA banner. He is a walking diaster.
