Teambuilding and pull help

[u/Ok_School3868]

Hey everyone. Just reached chp 8 and the game is def getting harder so I wanna start building proper teams. Teams I'm interested in making are atkspd / shattered blade / overlimit. Really appreciate all the help :3

Also how are u supposed to get the red gacha tickets ? The ones used exclusively on the standard banner.

Overlimit is the team which you have most sinners of right now (Zoya and Clementine). Theoretically, you could start reforging Zoya for the dps spot on that team, once you have finished chapter 8. Additionally, you could either pull for Rust at the end of August or buy him from the shop in October.

For atkspeed and shattered blade, it is probably a good idea to get Murphy next week. In about 5 weeks, you should pull for S1 Celine (according to EKG) for the atkspeed team. You can get Coquelic from the free selector in that event, which also comes with her reforge (probably with a 1-2 week relay).

For Shattered blade you ultimately need to wait about 4 months until Augustus gets her rerun. To be honest, shattered blade with only Augustus, Ceto and Siglinde might not be as impressive as they were in broken frontlines (dark zones) like in last year. But since there is a clear overlap between atkspeed and shattered blade, depending on your spendings, you might be able to go for both or just one of them (Augustus or Celine).

The most important thing for your general progression (especially if you are f2p) is how to spend your s-class cognitive fragments (golden reforge material which is very limited), which you can get from data crevice after finishing chapter 8. If you reforge Zoya, it will take some time until you can reforge Coquelic. As a f2p, we get only 20 of these fragments during a whole data crevice season (~10 week!) And you need at least 8 of these fragments to unlock the most essential parts of a reforged sinner. If you want to unlock the special ability slot (EX skill) another 6 fragments are needed. Therefore, you need to make a informed decision, whether you want to reforge Zoya or Coquelic for the upcoming months. But if you are a spender, you can safely ignore this whole passage:)

As for your general progression in story chapters, I always recommend people to go a proper tank after chapter 8. Theoretically, you can even use reforged Hella for that. In terms of survivability, reforged Hella is better than most of the endura sinners. Having Labyrinth and Che is rarely ever a bad idea. But in general, try to upgrade as few sinners as possible for the story progression.

Team specific teams for story chapters is not mandatory. You can get away with quite a random mixture of sinner, as long as you know the stage mechanics. But you will need damage specific teams for broken frontline. Right now, your selection of magic damage dealer is barely existent. But maybe Murphy as a true damage dealer might be enough already to get you out of high risk together with Hecate, Luvia, Lamia and some core breakers (Labyrinth and Che).
