I would like your opinion on Edea. I see there is a lot of hype for her (which I was once apart of), but I no longer see it. Her BB and SBB give status aliments, but there are many bosses that resist. (I'm excluding Raid. I'm thinking in terms of Trials and GGC.) The next thing I have a problem with is her extra skill. Upon release, she required her sphere to remove status aliments. That's ok, but her sphere doesn't prevent them. So she has to equipped with a second sphere that nullifies aliments. This is problematic because most people equip thier mitigators with a second sphere that can help get their BB back faster. The only sphere that does both is the Star of Hope. That is a very high FH reward. This also becomes a problem because her BB cost is actually higher than the rest of the mitigators. Looking at this, I don't find her as deserving of the hype as she gets. (Though in my opinion, the units in this update are kinda bad. Alice has good abilities, but using them all to the fulliest ability is a pain, and Loch is just a nuker... nothing more, nothing less.) What do you think?

One more thing, I hear that Edea may not need her sphere to cure aliments. Could you look into that? Is it a change that Japan recieved or is it just hopeful wishing of other players. (Sorry for the long dialogue.)
