    So my (shitty) analysis of the units I managed to get. Have 6 more pulls coming on Sunday from CA:

    Gildorf we know
    Reihard: Possibly one of the best multi-enemy trial leads? 35% stats + status negation LS + DEF conversion, element DT-10%, +10 BC instant fill (same as Sacred Crystal).
    Malbelle: Good for lead for Elgif farming and bring to single enemy trials instead of spark buffer imo (instant fill +12 BC when needed on BB). Otherwise probably not that useful. Spark crit is (1.5 + .2*.5) per sparked hit instead of 1.5. Not great. If you can maintain her SBB 100% of the time it's a 1000% SBB buffing BBATK by 200%, but it's rare for things to A) live that long without wiping gauges B) live that long in general.

    I also got a Limera but she's now just a shitty Reihard so meh.

    Pull time!!!

    got a Gildorf (O), Claire (L), Drevas (A), Reihard (L), Dupe Tora, Klaus (B), Dupe White Dragon, Aaron (G)

    Haven't been keeping up so I don't know how good Gildorf Drevas or Reihard are. Claire and Aaron are older units that I never got before. Klaus seems...eh...

    Gildorf is a great nuker. Drevas is a unique niche unit that actually excels in the Beiorg raid mission. Reihard is "meh".

    Aaron is one of two dark type mitigators in the game; the other being Laberd.

    Klaus is Bestie +1 which will matter when we get water FG.

    Also Hushi I disagree about Reihard being meh. 10% Elemental damage down that stacks with mitigation AND def conversion and status null on BB means good news imo. His SBB gives same mitigation that Gazia LS gives against all but light / dark.

    Refer to my earlier post about shortfalls of his defense conversion buff.

    110% of the time, a 30% Atk > Def buff will better than Reihard.

    Status null is a moot selling point considering that there has been a status cleanser/nullifier unit in pretty much EVERY 7* batch and a butt load of legacy 7* units got it as well.

    His elemental mitigation is a very niche thing and isn't quite the same as a Leader Skill since it can be buff wiped.

    Personally, I wont do anything with only a status cleanser. I bring null or nothing. Curse landing fucks BB gauge even if you can clear it next turn.

    Buff can be wiped and yes there is better DEF conversion, but I cant think of a time I've ever brought anyone solely for DEF conversion, it's always a nice bonus (Reeze). +10 BC instant fill is great as well for trials.

    Overall I think he's more useful than anyone else besides Gildorf and Lafiel this batch. Klaus will get used for water FG and Grahdens EX and then go away forever, Malbelle may join my FG or Elgif team, probably not. Isterio I don't think I would use unless I was aiming for a spec debuff for one fight.

    Also do we have any light status null 7* besides him? I know I don't. Light FG is coming up as well. Cant depend on Krantz since you need him to heal from what I've read.

    Does Aurelia attack? I know since Charla doesn't you cant use her for light FG. Rinon could substitute then.

    aurelia sbb does attack, looking up on everyone i got, Malbelle is my priority, sadly no gildorf for me. Lafiel and Klaus are my next ones to raise.

    Also to note the 2 Elgifs I got were both negate Ignore defense effect...yea...

    Looking it up I can already see Gildorf looks to be a SBB beast that is also a spark buffer, so I can def. see him for boss runs and such.

    Klaus' big thing is sickness, which is pretty niche. Level him up as a battery for Raid I guess.

    Unimpressed with Reihard. Def boost based on 10% HP, 10% reduced damage to 4 elements, and a bunch of status negation and immunity. Only thing he's got going for him is BC boost on activation. Would've been better served if he just had mitigation BB boost and status immunity and he'd be a Narza +1. Also LS is just raw stat boosts and not much else.

    Drevas doesn't look that impressive unless I'm missing something.

    I use drevas for the Paris EX trial, and for Beiorg's RC6. Drevas has a 10% mitigation against thunder element on SBB that stacks with standard mitigation, you can be super tanky w/ Eldora leader which provides an additional 15% thunder mitigation, so you get 75% total mitigation against beiorg. Drevas like Vishra also has a counter-status infliction which has a pretty high chance to proc, it's random status, and Beiorg is susceptible to status infliction.

    All RC6 and newish GQ / Summoner Trials require more than standard mitigation so yeah Drevas/Limera/Reihard etc all have their uses.

    Especially GQ where you get forced to take shitunits with you, like the new one. But god damn the sphere is A+.

    Beat Ark Trial, on the third time. Kept getting nuked down, in Round one, but 75% mitigation cleared it and round two was a breaze.

    Regarding Aurellia, she doesn't hit hard at all, and her BB has a DoT, so it does do damage, for three rounds. Either way, her damage is pretty negligible, but if you have a Def -> ATK conversion, then her Rec -> Def buff helps the rest of the group significantly.

    I have decided that gates with 4* units are traps. I'm not touching them.

    With "add status ailment to attack" is it x% per hit or x% per turn? I.e. On a 40 hit SBB is it 40 chances or 1 chance?
