Refinement

Whose weapon should I refine?

I have Soren (-HP +Spd), Lyn (-Def +Res) and Minerva (-HP +Def) ready for refinement.

I'm also working on Felicia, Raven, Caeda and Marth, but I need to 5* one of them first for the weapons (I have all of them 4* merged on a low level so far, however, all have good IVs).

I don't really like promoting Caeda and Raven, as I already pulled them on 5* before they got new weapons. I also don't have feathers left, I tend to burn them immediately to my arena team.

I have around 400 Dew now, who should I go for?

If I had to rank them in terms of general usefulness of their refinement...
Caeda (wingsword makes her an actually useful red flier)
Felicia (super mage killer and cooldown)
Soren (Good IVs for Owl refinement and he's very versatile)
Raven (cheap cuz he only really requires fury in his A slot to be great)
Minerva (bomb-build only, really)
Marth (drive-buffer)

But yeah, refine the ones you like best or the one you think you'll use. I never use Felicia so her weapon would never be high on my refinement list, for example.

Well if you had to rang them in who actually benefits the most from refine and where ur precious dew are better served...its looks more like:
Raven: that boys a monster
Caeda: she gets most of her power from wing sword and i have not felt the need to upgrade her yet but definetly will sometime
Minerva: she becomes really versatile for different mixed phase builds.
Owl tome: is mostly for enemy phase sets and maybe with guudance, still too niche
Marth: good buffer i guess
Felicia: she gets most of her power from her base weapon some builds refine for spd bece she apreciates the stat more than the effect

Of the three, my vote is for minerva. She basically has neutral offensice and physically defensive ivs. Shes really good and versatile. And even with LnD she can tank thanks to her good spd. Shes really good with mixed teams thanks to the tactic skills

-atk +hp myself

Ok, I guess I'll promote Caeda next time I have feathers left. I have one on 4* 40 with 800 SP left, so she will be done soon after promoting her. I actually really started appreciating her, she can kill Grima very efficiently (and he is very common in my Tier). And I don't have any notable red fliers currently...

Next will be Soren and Minerva then. Can never be bad to have one more Rein counter for Assault.

Thanks for the advise!

you will not be disappointed with Caeda. I just upped her to 5* a couple weeks back (i wasn't even sold on her, just wanted to see what she was like with that wing sword)... shes AWESOME.

Her A skill is Fury 3, and all 3 of her allies have Goad Fliers. her ally bonus is with Myrrh... so shes sitting at

39 HP / 58 Atk / 57 Spd / 26 Def / 39 Res consistently, before getting into any kind of seals or armor or cavalry attack bonuses.. I'm debating giving her summoner support to bump her up even higher now.

I put a Dragon Fang special on her so she can gets the +50% Atk very quickly which loads her up with an 87 attack after one attack.

Current team is
New Years Azura (Hagoita also gives +2 def/res to allies, not counted in the above stats)
Cordelia with Firesweep L+
Myrrh with distant counter & Iotes shield
Caeda with Wing Sword

Sounds great!

I wanted to try LnD with Fortress Res on Seal to prevent self-damage Def is not worth saving anyway, I have Cherche and Subaki for that. I'll see if that works. And I'd love to give her Hone Fliers...

However, thanks for the good example!

Report

yeah the only thing with LnD is the loss of Res. She can tank the hell out of green mages at 39 res (34 neutral + 3 from fury + 2 ally support) and can make use of some of the ploy seals ( i run her with either a -5 def or - 5 atk ploy on the enemy).

Plus going from a +3 def from fury and a -5 def from LnD, she takes 8 extra damage from counterattacks. i just dont think it's worth it. even with the 6 damage after attack from fury, its better than 8 during the attack possibly causing her to die. second attack always triggers desperation too since she will likely be under the 75% threshold.

so pretty much either bait one green unit or a red (NON BRAVE!) sword user, and she can pretty much clean house after that.

Report

Well she ends up with 38 Res the way I wanted to use her. Including Ally Support. Nonetheless I admit that visible 39 Res are great for Def Ploy. I should focus more on that.
