What was worse?

I find Maria to be more useful than Mist.

I'd say Maria because she was never an exclusive. With mist, at least you cant get her at 4*

As someone who has experienced both, I can assure you that getting Mist is worse.

The problem was that there were a whole bunch of 4-5* units

We have only a few true bad units in the colorless or green 5* pool, but we used to have a LOT of bad units there.

I feel getting a 5 star Maria would've been worse.

She was normally obtainable as a 4 star back in the day, (And still is, but now she's demoted to 3-4 star.) so getting her at 5 stars would've been terrible.

I got her a long time ago, and I've used her for quite a while; she serves me well. I got her when my pity rate wasn't very high, so I wasn't aggrivated, plus Spur Def/Res was rare then, too, so I was actually rather pleased when she arrived.

Now, If I got another one, I'd be aggrivated.

Trust me... Maria was a million times worse. This is coming from someone who got pity broken by both. Mist beats out Maria thanks to her c skill being better than Maria's, and thats about it

Getting a maria back then was worse because back then spur def/res was a rare skill to come by
