Avant can be rather situational. You only get rare drops by chance upon destroying certain body parts, most of which are crit resistant. I typically wouldn't advise taking Avant as the lead so you can get the materials you need without worrying about crit damage destroying the main body part before the others do.

Ark is still very, very good in terms of carrying a lead role. You could also include AzYouurai as your friend lead to allow tri-buffs to flow into your squad. OD gauge fill rate isn't really much of an essential buff due to how little it applies to the OD gauge, but Ark also carries that buff already.

For Zelnite, he only increases item drop rates. The chances of capturing units in a vortex is always fixed and cannot be modified by normal means.
