@Mace1370 How many openings do you have? I guess it just depends on if Ard is taking a break or not. Sounded like it a couple weeks back. I can't blame ya, I go through some ups and downs with the game as well. As I don't really want to take back over the PA guild, maybe we should just ping them to merge over? Seems like half our guild is non-PA folks and constantly ask for Catalysts for aid... lol. Not sure how many active PA folks we have.
Is it important to make same element teams? Or are synergistic teams (like bleed or something) better? My last gatcha was Dragalia which is very element focused.
Element comps tend to not really matter out of pvp and even then you can use it to lure the AI. Synergy and gearing outshine elemental advantage in most areas outside of pvp and probably abyss oh and for damage dealers. But even in abyss you tend to bring in healers that may be at elemental disadvantage because the used healers are pretty much all water. The hunts are the primary area where it can matter but even then people use elemental neutral characters or characters that trigger wyvern because they trigger more cp push than the wyvern gets. Like ML Purrgis.
Some examples of pvp using elemental disadvantage is using someone like SC Incquisitor to draw krau S3 because he cant be one shot.
Hahaha, I bought a couple things of mystic medals on the vendor dude. See where this is going?
Anyways, Spectre Tenebria in 3. Woohaw, makes up for Dizzy (who just got 6 starred) in 120.
This almost makes up for the bullshit at work today where everyfuckingthing is onfuckingfire.
So two Sols so far, about to get my third junkyard dog, which should make farming the records a little easier which will net me another Sol and another junkyard dog.
Burned about 30 odd leifs and levelled a pile of fodder while doing so. Holy hell, I need SO MUCH FODDER. That said, I'll come out of this with 6* Dizzy, 6* Sol (who will be close to a "free" 6*.

I think that makes up for your next 3 pity pulls. Pulling ML 5*'s early is really lucky haha.
Is it important to make same element teams? Or are synergistic teams (like bleed or something) better? My last gatcha was Dragalia which is very element focused.
There are only 2 units right now that have skills that benefit same element characters, SC Hazel and Khawana. There are characters that can deal extra damage if the enemy is debuffed or buffed, so you can build synergistic teams around that stuff. Keep in mind, they tend to be boss specific as some bosses have retaliation to debuffs and other mechanics like it.
The only PvE mechanic that penalizes elements are the Hunts (and maybe some abyss floors). And even then, as Jubal mentioned, many folks take ML units in anyways as they can be really good. The main way elements come into place is the disadvantage/advantage piece. Fire bests Earth, Earth bests Water, Water bests Fire. When doing PvE farming or PvP, you'll want to be mindful of those combos.

The penalty if you attack the wrong unit type is a 50% chance to miss, which means you do 25% dmg and none of the additional debuffs or effects of an ability on the enemy will occur. Attacking an enemy you're strong against leads to +15% crit rate, and I think +15% more damage.

Finally hit Rank 35 and unlocked the Pet. Picked the fat little Dragon and it's got two B rank abilities, one for Greater Runes and one for Common Runes in Spirit Altar. Did the free adoption afterward and got a dog with S rank 7.5% chance for extra gear drop in Hunt, so that seems pretty good. Gonna need to look at a guide before delving into this system though, seems really expensive to mess up with.

It is! I got a decent 3* pet for runes (S greater runes and A common runes) and good 4* pet for hunts (S additional gear and S extra materials), but I only merge pets once in a while. Basically use my free draws every day and hoard any tickets I get from the World Boss for special pets that are exceptionally cute.

I’m definitely burning out pretty hard, but I’m still playing for now. My level of caring has started to plummet severely though.

Yeah I don't sweat switching them and only every once in awhile try for a 4*. I have a 3* B rank with chance for event currency (never seen another one of these). And a couple S Rank for hunts and lobby. Lobby is mostly enhance equipment related since units I grind to level and I don't see much equipment (always have stuff to level up for the gear conversion machine lol).

We have 4-5 openings iirc. It would be awesome if you or anyone else would apply. We'd really like to fill out our numbers. We're looking for people who are interesting in improving, want a more challenging GvG experience in a stress free environment (i.e. we want you to try, but no one is going to bash you or be toxic if you lose), and are willing to be active in the guild and on discord.
The guild is a really great group. Everyone is really nice and supportive and there are multiple veteran players who have a lot of experience and really help improve your builds and understanding of the game. It's probably the best guild experience I've had in a game to date.
Had to stop cranking out dogs, just overwhelmed by how many I have. We need a free stamina weekend so I can turn all of these into 6* heroes. Or an event that gives out a zillion stamina.

You could always pick a low stamina cost story stage and just crank it out for 2* units. Then once you've awakened your silver dogs to level 21 3*, feed them to the gold dogs or leveled silver dogs.
Aren't all stages 8 STA @ normal difficulty? I've just been pushing through normal guilty gear stages at the moment, mainly because it nets me both units and doodads to buy more Sols and artifacts. I was doing the higher difficulty 12 STA of the same stages, but I found my units levelled too fast for the amount of fodder units I was getting so I was perpetually starved for fodder.

Yep, if I remember right though, there are normal story stages that drop more fodder than normal. Grinding the 8 stamina stages for the event is the best way to go if you are still working towards those rewards.
You want to run what your stamina can support. Your dailies should supply enough to play for awhile at 8 stamina. But that said the currency drops arent linear. You get much more for higher stamina. And using the artifacts.
At the moment, I'm running Sol w/ his artifact and Dizzy with hers. She's levelling up at the same time but I'm pretty sure Sol hit 50 last night. Grind grind grind!

Normal difficulty is the most efficient stamina cost per experience gained, so is the best difficulty to run if you want to maximize leveling up heroes and fodder.
Hell difficulty is the most efficient stamina cost per event currency gained, so is the best difficulty to run if you want to buy things from the shop for the least amount of energy spent.
If you are early game you should run the stages on normal since you often need to level up units at that point. Once you progress more into the game, leveling units is no longer the bottleneck for progression (i.e. you will have multiple level 50s or 60s sitting around with no gear or molas), so hell difficulty is the best.
I'm able to auto Hard so that's where I'm sticking to get currency since I basically only just got up to speed in the final week. Still need to buy a copy of Sol then decide if I want to go for the remaining two copies of Junkyard artifact or pick up as many catalysts as I can get my hands on.
I would give you all my gear for a single piece that can roll critical chance or attack% instead of pumping everything into effect resist on all the red pieces.

So Elphelt looks fun!
S3 debuffs then sleeps and decreases defense, plus gives an extra turn.
S2 increases crit chance for all allies and, if you kill the enemy, decreases defense for all other enemies.
S1 is a 75% unable to buff.
That seems pretty awesome. But then the madlads are putting Ray out finally the week after (I think) who is basically Destina and Angelica rolled together. Bastards.
Also, Elphelt's artifact is a single target def break. That might be worth pulling on the banner for itself.
Yeah she's good enough and limited, so I'll be pulling. Her S3 makes ML Baal and Sezan cry even more... She has 100% chance to put dispel like them, but then has a 100% chance for sleep and defense break, can SB for 'ignore effect res', and gets another turn. Her only knock is with farming, her animations are long lol. Otherwise she looks great for both PvE and PvP, having a good base speed of 115.
Her artifact is also pretty decent. The only downside is it'll need a lot of investment with bottles (or get lucky pulling) since it's only around 45% with 1. But could be useful for fast rangers to give them more utility.
Ray coming after is kind of a FU to players. He looks amazing, sort of a ML Basar lite but with 110 base speed (fastest SW so far).
Anti Charles. She is strong/safeish anti Charles which makes her pretty top tier heh.
As for Ray following people have been asking for more new heroes more often on reddit heh. Its one of the more common things i see people whining about on reddit and official forums.
For me the shining star of the patch is being able to choose mystic medals or skystones for your weekly arena reward.
And Ray.... I may have dolphin a bit for Ray. Not because he is good. Which he looks to be a no nonsense fast healer. But because his animations are some of the best in the game I think.
eh, there are folks that complain about anything. Having 3 or 4 weeks of repeats, I'm sure folks were asking for new units. I doubt anyone was asking for a repeat limited collab with 1 new limited collab unit and then a desirable RGB unit run the week after. This is pure greed on SG.
Looks like ML's getting some tweaks as well. Time moving from 4 weeks to 3 weeks and no new 4* ML units till all the ML 4*'s that haven't been included get a run. Also seems you can now choose Skystones or Mystic Medals as a weekly Arena reward.
WHY?! She is one of the more op single targets they have put out. I guess people just dont know the game and dont know that sleep makes you 100% chance to crit so you can build her extra fast and hard hitting at 50% crit and setup the rest of your chunky 50% crit team to finish. And remove one of the biggest pvp threats in the game with charles.

Did I read somewhere that the next 4* ML in rotation was Shadow Rose? Because she's I think the last one I want and I might have to go in for her.

But don't you know they "censored" her S3 animation and so she's awful now?

Yeah and her with Sasha arti could be lots of fun!
There's always folks that will complain since they hold every new unit to Dizzy or SSB. Elphet looks great, she has a role in PvP and should be pretty good at PvE as well. She looks ready made for A11-13.
EDIT: Also her artifact could work really well on Cerise.
Does bring up a question around what goes first mechanic's wise. If I have Dizzy with Iela Violin, if it proc's, does it remove immunity first then apply her debuffs or does it hit debuffs first then strip?

Edit: I had her on candlestick forever. Swapped her to idols for W13.
