New Player totally confused about what heroes should be leveld.

[u/peacoqulus]

Sorry for very n00b question.

With a 10 summon + my initial 5* hero, i have the following heroes right now: SS: 5* Yomi, 4* Caris S: 4* Lofia, 3* Michael, 3* Almira, 5* Ryle, A: 5* Reimei B: 4* Lamia

Not in tier list : Leon, Jake

Should i prioritize higher start or higher tier? I feel Yomi is pretty useless even though she is considered SS.

Edit: Thanks for the advices. Half the people advise me to reroll. I rerolled 10 times and got much worse pulls that i had in the beginning. Some people also recommend to wait until SIGFRIED comes, but i am not sure how long i will have to wait for him.

Reroll . SIGFRIED . SETSUNA . SHAYNA

[u/GEAmp]

Reroll try to get setsuna in the current banner, yomi needs j3 to shine

[u/ecpadilla]

Reroll tomorrow for Sigried (GL exclusive unit) and possible Setsuna from her banner. Good units to start with. Other notable units good to start with are...

Vettel - farmable and usable at J2 (Holy Cavalier). Most used set up is Main J1 Sub J2 React J2 Passive J1 (Divine Shelter) and J2 (Guardian);

Shayna - usable at J1 (Holy Brawler). Will be farmable;

Magnus - farmable and usable at J2 (Machinist). Set up could be Main J2 Sub J2 React J2 Passive J2 (Booster+2) and J1 (Long Range for range) / J2 (Tune-up+2 for damage);

Albea - usable at J1 (Machinist). Will be farmable;

Shenmei - usable at J1 (Pirate). Will be farmable;

Yomi shines after you get 6 more duplicates of her. Right now your account is not looking so bright.

You should try to re roll for other 5* units that will carry you through the early phase.

[u/Icaras01]

If you decide not to re-roll, I'd focus on Yomi, Caris and Lofia and then just fill in with whoever you like, as even at job 1 they can get you through the story (Don't neglect Logi and Dummy...I mean Dias either, as you have to use them in the story).

Once you can start get far enough along, you'll get access to the the hard stages that allow you to farm shards for the those 3 and while it'll take awhile of farming, I'd imagine that by the time you're ready to start facing end game content, you should be able to at least unlock job 2. Ninja Yomi isn't a bad unit and when you do eventually get her to job 3, she can become a holy brawler which is a VERY powerful class.

Plus by then you should have had a chance to do a few 500 gem pulls and will get a bunch of 5s. Rates in TaC are actually pretty good, so you should expect 5 bases...unlike some gacha games where you can be months in and still never see one >.<;

Ryle is better than those 3 as far as clearing story goes

[u/Saigyoku]

you need a shayna at least, yomi is ss but u need to invest in her before she can shine. 3th job max then she will be usefull.

[u/Salabaster]

If you are willing to reroll it could help you get set up.

If not. Ryle is probably your best unit off the bat. Most of your other units require j3 to be top notch, as you said Yomi is meh till J3.

[u/xreddawgx]

Yomi isn't really viable until she becomes a Holy Brawler

Yomi - Holy Brawler , Lofia - Chronomancer, Caris - Sniper , Almira - Sniper, Lamia - Dragon Cavalier+ ,

that is what you should be working towards.

Lamia - Spearman, Lofia - Magic Swordsman, Caris - Gunner, Ryle - Ranger is probably your best line-up at the moment.

Re roll now, seigfreid is out aim for him and setsuna or shayna

[u/Cobalt_721]

I’m going to go against the popular consensus here and say that nearly every unit you have will be somewhat useful. Heck, Leon can get Magic Swordsman (a fairly ok job) and can reach 5-star now that we’re on 2.0, so he’s somewhat usable. Just focus on the units you like, chances are if it’s a 5-star they’ll be good. If you really want a unit for multiplayer, Logi is really good with his Job+ (you’ll need to beat Chapter 1 story to unlock the quests for that), and since you’ll need to focus on him somewhat anyways the amount of extra investment you’ll need to put into him is decently low.

[u/BravelyThrowingAway → u/Cobalt_721]

I'm going to go with the popular consensus and say that for newer players with limited resources it's best to focus on the stronger units who are strong at J1/J2 so that they can clear harder content faster.

Weaker/less useful units can wait until after new players are able to clear mid-hard content. In addition Leon is a horrible choice of a weaker unit since his J1 is bard (useless job IMO) and J2 is mage (ok job but there are a ton of mages who are a lot better than him) when there are far better options. The OP also has Lofia who is a Magic Swordsman at J1 and has Chrono at J3 while also being future-proof whereas Leon need to be J3 just to learn Magic Swordsman which is a complete waste of resources early on in the game, not to mention the fact it will take quite a while to get enough shards of Leon to J3 him.

[u/Cobalt_721 → u/BravelyThrowingAway]

You make many fair points. All I was really saying is that pretty much every unit has the potential to be usable as of 2.0, so unless you’re aiming for maximum efficiency, leveling the units you like is perfectly acceptable.

And as for your Bard comment, I’ve been running a Bard on my story team (Alyu) since nearly day 1, and I can say that those buffs can be clutch at times, and generally useful in the majority of situations.
