They're both good, I personally think Rat has a bit more value? Unless you have 0 good Erunes and want to Fa HL, but in that case just make Seox 5* tbh

Taking the discounted spark...
Primary: Mahira, Anila
Secondary: Rosetta
Tertiary: Io, Monika, any summer units
Please come home: Agni
I am not discount sparking, but my 100 rolls plus Mukku got me 14 total SSRs, which felt nice. 8 moons (1 dupe AK-4A), 1 new character (water vampy!), 6 summons (two of which are usable, a dupe Typhon and Morrigna). Altogether pretty solid haul, thanks KMR.

Hahaa, too late!
In any case, I also just got Rei, and have some of the other suggested Faa characters, so I’ll be reworking my HL team and getting used to them for a bit anyway anyway.
Vikala suffers from being in an element that is super crowded at the top end, and Hype is good and all but it isn't cap break. If your grid is weak (and even if it's just "good") she's an amazing damage steroid, otherwise her niche is high def fights where her dodge is also useful (aka Fa HL, where her dispel passive is also really good). Granted, she's perfectly useable elsewhere, but dark is one of those elements with too many good characters and people get crowded out unless they hyper specialize in a particular niche (the niche is usually murdering things dead).
Rei is excellent... but! To really take advantage of her you need to be racing high end content (BHL, basically), if that's not your thing then she's not as valuable and becomes another one of those Perfectly Fine dark characters.
Anila will immediatly make magna fire feel 200% better to play. She drops off in the super high end Agni and Racing setups, but her kit is just so loaded that even whales find a use for her in some places. She's probably the best QoL pick of the bunch.
In conclusion, pick Rat because she's adorable.

Rat is also one of the things that frees Magna Dark from absolutely having to press the Zooey button, if you hate that. (Incidentally one of the easier ways to power through the Hector solo) Also she's year limited, so she should be the highest prio selection if you could.
I have... a lot of new toys from today's nonsense. Grand Katalina, Rosetta, and Noa are just the tip of the iceberg. Also got some really good summons like Michael and Gabriel.

I've been having fun watching the speedkill leaderboards, Started out at 11 turns, 41 seconds, fairly standard dark lucha strats with JP ping, now it's down to 9 turns with some crazy tormentor build (but the fastest clear is 5 minutes and 23 seconds).

Rank 150 achieved. Is there any particular reason I should uncap further immediately or can I stick around for a little longer. Joining coop seems like it gets harder at higher levels and I want my grids to get better before I hit that range.

Always uncap immediately. Ranking up unlocks content to improve your grids, and honestly the rank capped M2 trains are usually a horrible deal (you can always make your own as well). The truly annoying trains that can take 1-2 hours are must faster and less annoying at high rank anyways; the difference between an open UBAHA train and even a r150+ train can be insane. Also, ranking up unlock special EMP nodes for your main character classes that can vary from "meh, whatever" to absolutely game changing. The team HP nodes at 155, 185, and 210 are particularly amazing, giving your entire team a very significant HP boost.
this might be an unpopular opinion but i kind of wish that there were a lot more calls that only buffed allies of X element, just to focus the nature of choice paralysis and make the process of identifying what calls you want on your team a smoother, shorter process
Yeah, I basically just always use a set template for each element of Primal/Element, Shiva, Bahamut, Freyr, Alexiel/Arcarum SSR and never touch anything else because those are all solid to use. I don't know if I should use a different combination or when I should, because while the basics are thoroughly researched and shared it feels like anything in high HL level or Primals in general are scarce resources unless you run a bunch of sims yourself.

So, things we know about Drang, from just this event and the main story (excluding anything revealed in fate episodes)
1) he’s either still or just used to be not fond of his family

Need help deciding on next up

New Characters: Fire Siegfried, Chat Noir, Sara, Lennah, Summer Jessica, Grea, Korwa, Aglovale, Mahira!!, Summer Sandalphon (yay ), Forte
Dupes: Zeta, Beatrix X2, Eugen, Dark Sarunan, Aoidos, Nemone
Summons: Ca Ong, Bahamut!!, Raphael (2nd), Metatron!, Anubis (2nd), Nyarlothtep (sp), Zephyrus (2nd!)
Spark: Vajra
Anni tix: Holiday Magisa
Of Vikala and Dark Ferry, I lean toward Vikala since she's rarer and disappears for an entire year (even though it's nine months from now)
Edit: both tend to get tucked away for a good while, Vikala for longer, but Ferry’s weapon is also very useful (at max level).
I think I’ve decided, it’ll be Ferry
Primary: Mahira, Anila
Secondary: Rosetta
Tertiary: Io, Monika, any summer units

Spark Selection - Mahira
I hit rate for literally the first time ever! Wide mix of stuff, nothing gamechanging unfortunately.
Hahaa, too late!
In any case, I also just got Rei, and have some of the other suggested Faa characters, so I’ll be reworking my HL team and getting used to them for a bit anyway anyway.
SSR summons: Zeus #3, Lucifer #2 (stoned my first), new Cerberus, Garuda, Tsukuyomi, Bonito, Kaguya #3 (Yay FLB), Marduk
Characters: Noa (grande), Heles, Ferry (grande) #2, Tabina, Cain (grande), Io (grande), Aletheia, Light Silva
Also got 11 gold moons.
Rei is basically mandatory if you have or want to make a Hades team now.
Vikala is...well I don't know much about her actually. She's not bad, just not on the same level as the other two.
Rei is excellent... but! To really take advantage of her you need to be racing high end content (BHL, basically), if that's not your thing then she's not as valuable and becomes another one of those Perfectly Fine dark characters.
Anila will immediatly make magna fire feel 200% better to play. She drops off in the super high end Agni and Racing setups, but her kit is just so loaded that even whales find a use for her in some places. She's probably the best QoL pick of the bunch.

They gave away 100 free draws today, which is a 1/3 discount to a spark

My seventh Reunion, third AK-4A, second Gambateinn for noteworthy weapon dupes
And no summons of value
I'd complain about it being a real shitpile of a spark, but it was almost entirely off roulette draws so whatever
April Fools is saved
Which probably has its origins in the UBHL 6-man OTK.

1) he’s either still or just used to be not fond of his family
2) ferry is his great aunt
Feel free to correct me on these
His Grand skill fate is the only thing that really gets into his origin
