    Maybe I've gotten really lucky then. I haven't worked for any of my shock cores since the first time Shisui RC6 came around.

    Looks like a nice Shusui pt, for me is:

    Avant - Lead
    Lambard - Friend
    Semira
    Tridon
    Charla
    Iris

    Reliably survivable and I can nuke past a stance, if I want to UBB on another stance besides Supreme, or Avant UBB on Supreme stance for even more damage. Got 46 million contribution, with 2x ATK/DEF potion uses. Might try swapping Tridon/Iris, for Hadaron, to see what it's like without a bit more defense.

    Shusui takes reduced critical hit damage so Hadaron won't deal nearly as much damage as he usually would. Just an FYI

    The only thing that lands unresisted and for full damage on Shusui is Spark Damage actually.

    My only two DEF boosters are Tridon and Hadaron, so that's why I considered swapping them. If I dropped Iris, I could put in Ciara, for the + ATK and keep the shield + Defense.

    Yeah that's an option. Survival mode would be with Iris (that Fire mitigation is helpful), damage mode with Ciara.

    The +Light Damage Nadore has, is that a straight +% to the final number calculated in the damage formula, or does it go in under elemental modifier?

    Looking at defensive-ish options for future RC6 that hit harder so Gazia lead + Reihard or Limera for 10% elemental damage + then Nadore for DEF/REC boost and if the light damage boost is decent it starts to make sense to bring Rouche over Zeruiah.

    Nadore's +75% elemental weakness damage goes under elemental modifier and it only applies to Light units attacking Dark units. Keep that in mind.

    Shusui was a bitch today. DoT + Regen/spike heal was leaving me at 1/3rd health, where yesterday, it was leaving me at 2/3rds health; my team never really had a chance. Somehow, nobody joined my last raid at all, and I lost a battle because of it...

    So I'm working on making Malice Jewels, Phoenix Crowns and working on mats for that War Demon's Blade. Are these the current meta-ish speres aside from all the ones that trigger extra skills? I guess that Demon Striker is nice to but ain't nobody got time for that.

    Pulled a Hadaron and Gildorf recently, both Guardian but I'll take it.

    Demon Striker is amazing, you should put in the time. It is pretty essential to pair with Phantom Gizmo on your mitigator for one enemy trials.

    And yes WDB / Occult Treasure / Beiorg / Revelation Book are meta. Also trial / GQ spheres should be gotten.

    Deamon Striker is worth it, but you do have to stick it on someone who can make good use of it; usually a high hit-count unit, like Reud, to generate the extra BC/HC. I actually use Phantom Gizmo/Sacred Blade on my mitigators, and that pretty much guarantees BB every turn; SBB with a decent BC+ drop or BC on hit buff.

    AFAIK it goes by drop count, not hits, and DC for SBB is reasonably standard across the board.

    Edit: oh nvm Reud huge DC on sbb, it's his BB that is the same as Laberd / Krantz.

    BC is based on drop checks. HC is on hit counts.

    Reud doesn't have high drop check on SBB, he's got a huge hit count on his SBB.

    My understanding is that, for BB/SBB, they are related:

    For BB and SBB attacks, the drop checks per hit are almost always simply 1. This is generally a balancing check against the AoE and higher hit counts factors.

    So a higher hit-count BB/SBB nets more drops, which Demon Striker increases, which is why I put it on Reud. I'm rarely in content that requires me to do normal attacks, and if I am, I'm usually nuking something down and not using said BB/SBB.

    Funny enough, they excel in Arena and are free, slightly weaker alternatives to Chrome (Seria), and Avant (Karl) as subunits (not as leaders).

    Series's SBB has the same +80% spark buff as Chrome, and a better BB fill on spark buff.

    Karl has the same HP > attack buff and +200% BB mod on his SBB like Avant. Karl's SBB can go up to 980% damage mod with consecutive uses.

    Hmm, I thought Grahdens/Owen came out before Seria 7* (but not Karl 7*), I guess I got it all confused. Dang, I was hoping for them by now. Soon...
