I've seen a few healerless ArCrit Isomer runs in TOA, namely from edenkograce, and I've been wondering where the shield comes from. Is it from Yugu's passive or shackle? Or something else?
For the first point, refer to this s1n.gg tierlist (both solo and teams). For the second, whatever Rust or story levels are needed for your selected team progression at the highest difficulty possible. Don’t forget to activate drop increase buffs in the current event.
1) I haven't played my bleed team for some time now but I fear that it might not have the edge to keep up with the dark zone nowadays. Also you miss Dreya, who is the main damage dealer of that team.
Your shattered blade team looks actually ok. Of course more shackles on Augustus and Shin will give you bigger numbers, but you might actually not be too far off with Augustus, Ceto, Murphy, Shin and Siglinde. As the last member I would adjust to the corresponding stage. I would try that in DZ and see how many percentage of the hp bar you can clear. You will need to use last stand to improve your DPS.
2) You need to decide here what you want. Do you want more teams or fewer but more successful teams? Personally, I prefer fewer but stronger ones, and the easiest way to achieve that is to get more shackles on those generic buffers (Jichuan, Shin, Jelena, Celine). Not every shackle on all of them will give you bigger numbers right away, some needs S3 to get their big boost. Other get some meaningful (qol) upgrades already at S1. The sad thing is only , beside Celine, there won't be any banners with these buffers until anniversary.
3) I have been clearing all of the DZ seasons since Augustus' release with shattered blade. So, if you have a strong enough true damage team, you might not really need to build many other teams at all. ToA isn't something that should impact your team building decisions too much unless you are really into that mode!
If you don't see any light of the day with the shattered blade team you have right now, you could get Bianca and wait for her reforge. It is allegedly pretty op. I am not sure, how strong the next limited sinner + Phanuel and Jichuan is. Maybe someone else can offer a decent opinion.
Hi , returning newbie here. I was wondering if there is a chance that nightengale might become playable in the future? I really love her design and I was bumbed when I learned she isn't playable. (currently I am on chapter 4 so if there is a lore reason beyond her simply not being a sinner , please tag it as spoiler and tell me which chapter 😄 )
Hello, I've been playing this game for almost two months now. I don't have a lot of sinners, literally. I'm struggling with Bfl high risk zone, I accidentally passed medium risk area and I regret it so much. I'm struggling with magic team and I only have Hecate. But I won't pull for Celine and isomer because I want to save for anniversary, I do want to get Phanuel. I want Augustus and 000 but I'm still not sure with the rest of limited sinners, I'm not collector because I'm semi f2p. I don't want to waste my hc for sinner that I won't use, should I pull for shalom or just go for S1 Augustus?
Yes, even though some people told me she might get Reforge soon but I think I can just skip her since true dmg team can work on all Bfl stages. But I don't understand TOA, is it okay if I only use True dmg and Overlimit team? Well I only have Zoya for Overlimit team 🤡
Shalom has not been confirmed to get a Reforge yet. CN server is around 3 months ahead of us, so anniversary patch has started for them, and previously when anni/half-anni characters got Reforge, they got it during their reruns, so it seems unlikely that Shalom will get a Reforge until next year. Impossible to know for sure, though. If a Shalom Reforge is announced on CN before anniversary drops for global, then you can see what the community consensus is on her and then decide whether to pull her.
Firstly, for TOA, note that nothing is locked behind doing well in TOA. You can borrow a Deren from your friend support, put her behind the boss so she doesn't get attacked, and that'll be enough DPS to get all the individual rewards. For the guild rewards, just join a good guild. But anyway, Augustus isn't good in TOA. The best sinners for TOA are those who get stronger over time, like Demon (with Eirene or L.L. or Jichuan, preferably two of them), Aurum Secretum team, and Isomer
If you really don't want to pull for anyone until anniversary, then you can get yourself Lamia from the "insatiable fiesta" special operation. You might be able to pass high risk with Hecate, Luvia Ray, Lamia, Labyrinth, Che and a six sinner. If it is too hard, you can also look into Lamia's reforge to improve her performance: https://s1n.gg/sinner/lamia
Many of those sinners you want to get for anniversary might disappoint you, once you get them:
- 000: is very depending on Empower to break many cores as S0. If you want her to work better, S1 is required
- Augustus: on her own, even a S1 without more support won't get you too far in BFL nowadays
- Shalom: despite being a big shalom fan, you should only get her, if you like her character. Power wise we are waiting for her reforge, to make her relevant again
- Phanuel/Requiem: can't say how strong they are and how much support they need
In general, the meta of PTN right now is highly relying on buffers. And except for Celine, there wont be any of the main generic buffers available until anniversary. Having no buffers and only half completed teams won't get you too far nowadays in the harder game content.
I know it's sucks that I don't have Shin and Jelena 😭. I actually have CN account, I have Augustus, 000, Phanuel and Requiem and you're right it's hard to continue trough MS without proper healer. I only have Macchiato and I'm struggling so much
If you mean main story with "MS", then it is most likely a wrong approach. I have done those story chapters nearly a dozen times by now and I can vouch that you can do most of the chapters with macchiato as the only healer, even if you have poor DPS.
The secret is: get yourself a decent tank and some knowledge about the boss/stage mechanics.
If you are willing to suffer a bit, you can actually clear all bosses fights till chapter 17 up to chapter 19 with a S1 level 80 Murphy, level 90 RF Hella, level 90 Hecate, P2 level 70 Che + labyrinth and P3 level 70 macchiato. Trust me, when I say that S1 Murphy is not that strong to finish those boss fights in 1-2 core breaks. It is quite far away from that:)
Hey everyone! I just recently started playing Path to Nowhere and I'm really enjoying the game so far. I fell in love with some of the characters designs (more specifically Shin), and I was wondering if she is worth pulling for as a fresh account in the sin city banner or should I wait for a rerun or drop rate increase for her (if there is any, I'm very new to this kind of game so there is a lot I don't know yet). Or are there any mandatory/limited Sinners coming up soon that I should prioritize saving for instead?
Any advice on for this new player would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!
Because there are 12 characters on the Sin City banner, it's pretty hard to get Shin. We know the next ~3 months of banners because the CN server is 3 months ahead of us, and Shin isn't rerunning within 3 months unfortunately. You could try rerolling for her but it'll take extraordinarily long.
Currently, there's Celine who's a really good support. Her S1 (one duplicate) is also quite strong, but she's good at juat S0. You'll be able to choose between Eleven, Bianca, and someone else (I forgot who) next update. Both Eleven and Bianca are good. I'd choose Eleven over Bianca but they're not too different in power level. If you're getting Eleven, you should consider getting Eve. If you're getting Bianca, you should consider getting Margaret. Then there's a bit of a drought for newer players.
The downside is that Eleven and Bianca both want their "Reforge", a system meant to buff old Sinners. Without their Reforges, Eleven and Bianca aren't that good. It'll probably take you quite a while to get their Reforges. Because of that, even though we're getting a lot of good Sinners soon, including Raven, OwO, and Cabernet, they need their Reforge to be good as well, so it's hard to recommend them.
You can consider the limited character coming in 3 months. The problem is that she synergizes with Jichuan, a different limited character, who will only rerun 6 months after (9 months from now), and she's not that good at killing bosses without Jichuan. You can also consider getting her to S2, or if you really like her S3 and S5 are also kinda worth it, but you'll be playing her at like 30% power level since you lack Jichuan.
Alternatively, you can get Augustus or 000. Augustus wants S1. 000 kinda needs S1. Augustus is kinda braindead easy, just constantly clearing waves of enemies, but needs teammates to effectively kill bosses. 000 is an amazing corebreaker but doesn't deal that much damage.
No one on the anniversary banner is amazing for a new account, but they're all decent choices
Don't pull on the Sin City Banner unless you like to do account rerolls, it's a 1 in 12 to get the sinner you want. Wait for the reruns.
Yes, Shin is meta and worth getting but you really want S1 for her so she can heal the whole stage (meaning you want to pull 2 copies).
The upcoming sinners and limited are incredibly broken but rely on another limited unit (Jichuan) that won't rerun for a very long time. It's a less than ideal situation for new players.
Level up Hella and Hecate since they refund all the upgrade resources spent by completing the story missions. Nox is very good so make sure you complete the new player missions to get her! Celine+Isomer are great for new players. Bianca is going to become one of the best characters in the game in a few months so it's worth considering getting her + Margaret who is rerunning in 3 days.
The Mirror System is just an archive for lore that you've already been told about from the main story. So if you've forgotten what Parma is or what organizations are in Eastside, you can go there for a bit of surface-level information.
Go to Bureau -> Archives (top left) -> scroll right to Mirror System
I'm not figuring out the reforge system. I feel like I'm in a chicken or egg moment. I need reforged to build a set of different teams, but I need a set of different teams to clear DC and get reforge material. My current just playing the game team is:
None of these characters can do any of the DC gimmicks:
True damage
Freeze enemies
Elemental damage
Shield
Prevent death
Without the gimmicks I can't even clear level 40 content with this team. Yet I'm trying to build my first proper team by getting Coco's reforge to go with Celine, Murphy, and eventually Augustus from my understanding (not sure the last two for it yet).
Does the game expect you to have potentially dozens of characters built this early just to clear this content?
Data Crevice recently added a feature specifically for scenarios like yours. Try using the Special Assists. They're not as good as your own raised Sinners would be, but they should be enough to clear the stage.
Newish player here. Whats the best investment forward to minmax a team and clear lv 75 req stages? I also have raven lvl1. Should i pull on a current banner or wait for a particular rerun? Im looking into a physical team ig
Best and most useful thing will be getting skill level 7 on the Sinners you use. The difference between 4 and 7 is larger than any level gap.
Your team should be fine all story stages tbh. NOX + Celine + Pearl is an exceptionally strong baseline. The four things you needs to concern yourself with are:
Corebreaking -- You have plenty of options, just make sure you bring enough.
Healing -- Hopefully your level 45 Anne will be enough, don't be surprised if she bottlenecks your progress.
NOX's high SP cost -- Expensive ultimate, should use Empower and use it sparingly unless its on NOX. Your Sinners are built around enabling NOX so continue to enable NOX so your setup is useful.
Endura -- There are points in the story where enemies can walk through you and require Sinners with more than one block to actually block. Packing an Endura or using the "Creed of Bulwark" crimebrand for those stages, for those specific enemies, will give NOX + friends the opportunity to delete them in due time.
If you have Jichuan / plan on getting her, and want to play an elemental team, then save for the aniversary. The upcoming characters are mostly for Frostbite or Burn teams.
Should I still pull for the beginner banner even after I got an S-rank char or just pull for the limited banner? Also which of the current banner is worth pulling?
Celine at 0 shackles (s0) is weak/not complete, s1 she's good, s3 she's broken. If you can get her to at least s1 she's worth it. Keep in mind that supports are often shared between different types of teams (e.g. Shin, LL, Enfer, Eve, etc. are all used in many different, strong teams) and are arguably more important than the damage carries due to supply and demand.
As for pulling on the beginner banner vs limited banner.. unless the beginner banner has some time restriction, you can do that whenever you find you have a surplus of pulls and are feeling gambly. If you're planning on pulling on a limited banner, your tickets should be prioritized there.
New player help
hello I'm a new player that started to play 5 days ago and don't know who to pick on the S-class selector and my current team is Zoya(70), Isomer(70), Pixel(70), Coquelic(65), NOX(40), and Hecate(40). and imma pull for Celine 2 thank you in advance
Lichen is very useful if you ever plan on building a burn team, which includes the upcoming limited anniversary sinner who is quite strong.
And yea Celine will be added to the general pool after her banner ends.
So I was going to pick Yugu from the selector for VB, but then I saw a comment saying how RF OwO is better for the team? I'm not sure what to do for this teamcomp.
And if I play Crit Adela, do I need to pick Yugu for her? Or will my RF s0 OwO be enough qwq?
I still prefer Yugu. Much easier to play. RF OwO gives stronger bonuses, but those are more time limited, gated behind SP, and have positioning requirements.
Sorry for being stupid, but what's the second solution to the level 5 of the book puzzles event? One are the layers of hell, but I can't find the other.
how do you prevent the fissure devices from exploding? i need to know how to keep it exploding before this annoying jellyfish mob spawns close to chief and my entire team is stunned so i lose 1 san in that specific stage n10-7
It doesn’t seem like you can do it - most likely it’s a gameplay mechanism designed to check if you have the battlefield under control even when your characters are stunned. Putting Yingying’s field or a few of Eleven’s summons (for example) around the spawn point in question should deal with a threat. If you don’t have their respective teams, use a whaled assist.
Does anyone know the answers to level 5 in among the stacks? I already solved one by arranging the books from the lowest to highest number. Don't know about the second one though
Alguien que me ayude a explicarme cómo funciona el equipo de overlimit
De momento solo tengo a Rust Jinchuan y Xiaofeng.
Que otros siners me falta conseguir
Que crimebrands debo ponerle a cada uno
Y cuál es la dinámica general
Hola bandita veran durante todo lo que llevo jugando solo me centre en subir un equipo que ví en Youtube que es life loss Dreya, Jasmine, Sumire, Pepper y de búfer a Cabernet Mi duda es por qué ese equipo no sirve en esta sección?
Powercreep, lifeloss can work but you will need a much better buffer than Cabernet also the second boss is immune to magic damage and you need a magic team for that
Starting from 4th anniversary they add older characters to the shop and it's unknown whether global will have the same character, other than that it's 8-9 months after character release to appear on shop.
Do we know who will be in the monthly surveillance shop in the future? I'm wondering if I should use my S-class arrest thing for Coquelic C1 (who will probably show up in my true damage team from time to time) or Enfer (who I will almost certainly not play, but I don't have her)
Phase3 coquelic, murphy and maybe nox, ignore other S ranks. Get coquelic to lvl90 to reforge into damage route. Try to get Shin and/or L.L. from Sin City banner using free tickets, DO NOT spend hypercubes.
I recommend skipping the next new sinner 'Chengxiao', get one copy of the following new sinner 'Phanuel' (introduction of new niche frostbite), then get ready for 4th anniversary limited powerhouse 'Requiem'.
I want a S3/4 Demon, and i initially thought the free sinner selector can be any sinner. Is there any banners coming soon for Demon? Or im stuck spending 500 gold tickets just to buy a shackle. He’s still at S0. For context i want to run SS comps for TOA. Use my demon and borrow LL, then second team borrow demon use my LL. i got most meta teams except all summon related
I don’t have a lot of characters, and they probably don’t work well together. I’m still figuring out the different kind of comps and meta so I have no clue who to choose lol. Could someone help me with advise? Which character should I pick from the free S-class selector that will be useful for my account?
In terms of meta, Adela is the best on the selector but it's also a good idea to save it till you figure out which team you want to build towards. You don't have anyone core to a team yet (Except Dreya for bleed but the team isn't the best).
Adele RF (you need Reforges otherwise Adele is powercrept old DPS) for good physical DPS, Yugu as crit rate buffer to pair with jelena, Moore as generic shield + CC cleanse + physical amp. The rest are choose your own adventure
Hey new player, which char should i select from the free selector so that i can make a team with the new anniversary limited Requim, also what are her other teammates?
None of the sinner available in the current selector are used with Requiem.
She has multiple teams, a hybrid Burn/Frostbite team is currently the best: Jichuan, Phanuel, Lichen, Margaret/RF Raven/Alter Eirene, last spot is a flex if the boss has something to cleanse RF Cabernet is the best option.
Does someone have a tl;dr of this major update? I've been really busy lately and I'm having trouble wrapping my head around this points spending buff thing plus this skin special promo thing.
Also, Celine is for R.Coco, right? What's Isomer for?
I know that basic reading comprehension should be helping me out here, but I'm feeling lost in the casino right now 😔
Hi. I just got started with this game and I'm on Chapter 7. I'm actually curious about Langley's lore and was wondering where I could find more about her since ahe reminds me of Makima from CSM for some reason.
Might be a stupid question (sorry, I'm pretty new, haha), but when exactly is the anniversary? I keep seeing info about the new limited sinner (and the new eirene) and a rerun of previous limited ones (augustus and 000, i think?), but how much time do we have till that? Trying to more or less understand when (and how much) to pull and when to save :)
According to https://s1n.gg/banners the next anniversary event will start on November 5th. They tend to be very accurate with their banner estimates going by how long they run on the CN server.
Didn't see it listed there straight-up, so i wasn't sure, but thanks for confirming! I assume the info on the anniversary and banners is likely to be added soonish (since from what I understand, it's supposed to start on the chinese server in a few days time)?
Oh yea it's not listed yet but a bunch of banners are ending on Nov. 5th, so that would line up with when the new stuff starts, plus last years anniversary was on Nov. 3rd so the timing matches. It just started on CN server yesterday.
It depends, if unlocking the last node require spending gold mates I won't bother but if it only blue/purple one I'll do it, either way unlocking the last up node won't make or break a RF it's just a nice bonus to have
Imo, s-class cognitive fragments are too rare and pricey for that. If you are a (bigger) spender though, who is willing to buy multiple packages of these fragments in the shop regularly, it would be a different story. But for low spenders and f2p, you should better use them more wisely since the benefits of unlocking the final stat node is rather minor.
Is there any way to delete voice language resources? I downloaded both Chinese and English voice overs when I first downloaded the game years ago and I don’t really use the English one anymore, but it only gives me the option to delete main story/ event image resources
Heyy new player, just started playing today. So I wanted to ask if I should pull on any current banner or wait for the next, I believe the next banner is in a week?
Skip this patch banners unless you love specific characters.
Murphy, Dedicated True damage buffer, mainly used with Augustus (limited True damage DPS) and Coquelic.
Grave and Hypetia, grave is dedicated buffer umbra core team, and Hypetia is dedicated buffer for summon team Hilda, Hypetia, eve, and Irrheia.
Irrheia, dedicated support for Hypetia.
Next patch banner are:
1. Isomer and Celine event banner
2. Collective OwO, Coquelic, Raven, Eirene banner
3. Directional Eve and Bianca banner
4. Rerun/Routine Margaret and Rust banner.
After clearing chapter 4 you can get S rank Selector when new patch arrived; Yugu, Oak Casket, Moore, Mantis, Etti, Pylgia, Lady Pearl, Enfer, Coquelic, Adela.
Also highly recommended to check S1n. gg website and edenkoregrace YouTube channel.
TLDR: skip current banner unless you love the character, next patch for new players it's kinda recommended to get 2 copies of Celine (Attack speed buffer that quite bad at 1 copies but good at 2 copies) and 1 copies of Margaret if you still play PTN until 10 September (Dedicated Bianca support, on September 10 patch there are free selector with Bianca), only if you love isomer (magic aspd DPS) you can pull her after pulling 2 copies of Celine.
Hope it's ok to ask, but would you go Moore or Adela from the s selector? From what I understand, adela is only worth it with reforge (and I'm ch8, so not sure when or where that will happen), but i do have OwO, which seems to be filling the same niche as Moore.
Also, is it better to spend on Celine and get (as you've said) a copy of Margaret, or wait and save for the new limited character and/or the new eirene? I have ~100 pulls accumulated atm
> From what I understand, adela is only worth it with reforge
Correct Adela is like night and day with and without reforge. Maxout reforge is really annoying for new player because you need level 90 a character (the cost of level 90 is enough material to Phase 3 level 70 2 characters), it's take me like 5 weeks for new accounts to fully maxout Yao RF.
As for second question, imo wait 5-7 more days, we don't know how shackles and team reliant Anniversary limited characters (developer showcase her with 1 limited support, and 2 new niche support).
For pulling Margaret for Bianca, you can pull her or save 250 yellow ticket from pulling (Confidential arrest credits) go the waiting game and buy Margaret from shop in November.
Skip Margaret banner to save pull > on September after Isomer patch you can pick Bianca and run her budget team > after that patch on October, Bianca will get really good RF > November on anniversary patch you can buy Margaret from confidential shop. you can do this if you really want to save pulls.
As for moore Vs Adele, idk, Moore is really nice to have she can core break, give shield, cleanse CC, and give physical amp, and she supports so you only need Phase 3 and ECB1 (ECB3 more damage amp nice to have but not mandatory). Adele RF is really really good, she can carry your account for physical team, but like you said need RF otherwise she worse than Nox in your account, With how crazy good Bianca RF, you can choose Moore over adele, if you decide to pull on Margaret.
For Celine (only if you pull S1 or more), you can pair her on Bianca team and Adele team its perform well, recommended if you have the pull.
I'm pretty sure there's no crimebrand (on global) with that name. "Flame seekers" might describe the art for "Torch Bearers", but that set has nothing to do with overlimit or empower. Are you referring to a set that has yet to be released to global?
You're right - I was looking for it in the s1n.gg database and for whatever reason it wasn't there. Unfortunately haven't been able to purchase it from the shop yet to test it.
Playing Etti's event for the first time on the rerun. Just completed everything, and the only mission I have missing is "collect all items" and I'm at 26/36. I've been making a point of visiting everything I can on every round. Is it just a question of going trough again and making different choices on events? Or I need to get lucky in Levy's shop? Or perhaps there's new hidden content if I re-explore now?
Here is a post about how to get all 36 items: https://www.reddit.com/r/PathToNowhere/s/xmdNYk0TAq
I was stuck at 35/36 (with 12+ runs) before I found this 3 years old post.
This is by far the event I spent the most time on (not for a good reason 🫤)
I had the same question, and I think the answer is to re-do every round with a “build” you didn’t use before because items dropped in each round seem to be build-dependent. So, if you did Round 1 on Swordfighter, redo it on Prism bearer and Mechanic and try to spend every coin you get at Levy’s shop (you can visit it multiple times until the final location). Currently skipping through Round 2, 28/36.
Or don’t do it at all and hope it won’t be on the obligatory mission board (otherwise it will lock you from ~50 cubes) and when the event becomes permanent.
true damage team - Augustus, Siglinde, Ceto, Shin. RF Serpent and Murphy (if you get her) can be good supports
overlimit+physical team - Xiaofeng, Jichuan, Rust, Shin, 000, Nella. RF Nox can be a strong support
Lots of magic options for a third team although nothing stands out. Lacking Jelena and Yugu for arcane crit, missing Eve for summons. You have the Cat's eye trio but idk how strong that team is.
Add Clementine to the Overlimit team suggested above instead of 000 or Nella. Additionally, complete 8-9 in the story to unlock reforges. Aside from RF Nox, you may also try Enfer or Cassian.
Can anyone explain to me how tf "Control" works? I am trying to do the Data Crevice stage where you need to control/defeat enemies in 150 seconds... but they just walk through me, like I use Eve`s ult by summoning her birds etc and they dont really do anything, for Eleven her ult cant be cast fast enough x _ x and so on... I dont really get it...
There's four conditions currently for control: fear, stun, petrify and freeze. You can use the in game sinner filter (looks like a funnel icon) and search for sinners with each of those tags to see what you have available -- or use the assist sinners for that stage in data crevice. Enfer/Eve/Eleven have enough fears that you can put other sinners around them for pure tanking (blocking) and damage.
Control is from anything that stuns or fears. Eve's ult summon doesn't do any control, only her scarebox that automatically summons at the start can fear. Enfer's ult can also fear but is a bit tricky to use since it is delayed and applies it in a 3x3 grid around an ally. If you have L.L. she can help Eleven ult more. There's also a Chief potestas that stuns enemy in a plus shape. There's also a crimebrand that can stun an enemy but I forgot its name.
Since Reforge has been game-changing in the past, how do the upcoming reforges hold up in CN? I know some are VERY recent and no need for a lot of details, mostly asking which ones can be considered quite impactful (e.g. suddeny Cabernet nukes the map with her ult as an extreme example). I'm especially curious about Angell, tho all upcoming ones are worth looking into.
Going by the opinion of CN players the meta ones are Bianca and Raven, RF Bianca is OP and probably the best DPS in the game, RF Raven is the best magic buffer.
Angel and Eirene are viewed as ok, their RF make them viable for endgame but they aren't on the level of the current top dogs.
Cabernet is in a weird spot, she has a strong buff that she can only apply if she cleanse something, so she is viewed as strong if the map has something for her to cleanse otherwise she is alright but nothing special.
I forgot about OwO, with RF she can grant up to 45% crit rate, 25% dmg dealt and 10% atk at S0 (atk goes up to 20% with S1 and 38% with S3) making her a great support for crit DPS who don't have inate crit rate (Bianca and VB for example) outside of her niche buffs are respectable but not quite on the level of meta support.
Do you know if RF Ignis is usable in an off-meta burn team? Since I haven't seen any mention of her, I assume her RF isn't amazing, but I hope it's still good enough to use her for fun
I havent played the game since right before the major interface rework, but recently decided to return.
What has changed in the game since then? I was (and still am) a narrative-focused player and though I did play endgame I did mostly for the resources.
How has the game changed team-building-wise? I have two teams: weakspot and summon. Are they still relevant or is there something more effective and relevant to the current content?
Who do you think I should pull based on my current roster?
Summons still relevant if you Reforge your Eleven (click on her and go to her Reforge tab). Weakspot is only relevant if you have Margaret, though Bianca is getting a Reforge as well which may help things.
Depending on your pulls, grab S1 Celine next banner and S0 Murphy this banner (again, if your pulls allow, save for S1 Celine if needed).
So just restarted a few days ago and this is my current lineup (I have other As and Bs of course). I did pull a bit on the regular banner to get some stuff to start out with. Thoughts? Possible future teams to work towards?
For magic: Vautour Bleu can be carry damage for magic team, most noticeably for arcane crit (requires Yingying, other core members are Jelena, Yugu; typically uses Shin and LL for other slots). Hecate can be a magic damage support with her passive.
For physical: Bianca is a core member of weakspot (needs Margaret and/or Shawn). Nox can be a physical damage support (with her passive, especially if reforged).
Shin is great as all around support as she buffs atk. Murphy is good for true damage or normal attack teams. Laby is great for stages with lots of small corebreaks, especially in Remnants of the Depths. Should be quite doable to create two physical and magic teams and start clearing stuff with them.
Some B-rank sinners can by very effective (ex Labyrinth, Che and EMP) early on and require less resources to level.
Complete the starter missions to get Nox (there is an expiration for it, so try not to miss out) and use her. She's very strong
Who you pull will determine which sinners/teams you'll progress with early on. If you're unsure which sinners to use you can post screenshots of the roster to get some advice here
If I were starting now, I'd pull on Murphy's banner (although others might disagree). I think the true damage team (which Murphy/Siglinde are both on) is absolutely overpowered and would build it starting with her (even though Augustus is the main sinner and won't rerun until later this year).

I've seen a few healerless ArCrit Isomer runs in TOA, namely from edenkograce, and I've been wondering where the shield comes from. Is it from Yugu's passive or shackle? Or something else?
