a) If I already have good mitigators like Eleanor, is there any merit in getting Solos even if she's quite outclassed?

c) If I already have Shion and Juno-Seto, is there any merit in getting Feng?

d) If I already have nukers / FH leads like Natalame, Gregor, and Nyami, is there any merit in getting Long?

I'd want to use my UoC on any of these 4 units, really just wondering who'd be best to get.

Thanks in advance! (^^)/ a) Indeed, Eleanor is pretty outdated. However, if she's been useable for you then you don't have to pick Solos. But I highly suggest looking at some newer mitigators (Nagid, Amus, etc. who imho are better than Solos)

b) This question is kind of hard to answer, because having Shion/Ragra/Nyami/Linasera barely affects Silvie. All the units you listed are not spark buffers. Silvie's main buff is her spark buff. So right off the bat, I'd say that definitely get Silvie if you have no spark buffers. Also, Silvie hits harder than any of those you mentioned except maybe Nyami. They're probably equal on that.

c) Feng's main attraction is her niche as the best reviver. However, you have Juno-Seto who already covers that (Even though she's not as good at it, and also Juno-Seto's stats are a bit too outdated/weak for the current meta). So unless you desperately need a reviver, I wouldn't suggest Feng

d) If you're getting Silvie, no point in getting Long. However, Long does hit extremely hard (Probably harder than Nyami, definitely harder than Gregor, and I haven't compared him to Natalame). Comparable to Ezra damage. But his buffs are really selfish and I wouldn't use him except when I needed to deal maximum damage. c) However, Juno-Seto's main problem with being a mitigator and a reviver is that if she actually procs her revive to dead units, that revived unit will not have any mitigation buff and would most probably die after another attack. Unless you have another mitigator in the squad, using Juno-Seto as a main reviver is impractical.

Yes, to add to your point, Feng is the most reliable reviver in the game. But as a Feng owner, that's really all I use her for. Imo, you can still get other units who have lower chance of reviving than Feng but are usable in all other content (example: Galtier).

d) Unless you're making a nuke squad, I'd prefer Silvie just because she's more usable anywhere. Long's niche is damage and selfish buffs. It does make him a strong nuker and it does make him hit like a truck, but with the right spheres, Silvie can also do tons of damage, plus she can be used literally anywhere.
