User blog comment:TonyXD/Type Rant: To raise or not to raise./@comment-26464145-20150711090807

I'm with you on this point, I started Brave Frontier on the EU server, when it was tiny (Sefia&Kikuri were just released!), in those times I remember that the bosses weren't that hard, so breaker was loved by everyone, by me too. For almost 1 year there was no problem to kill bosses, so I had only units with damage and i was like "F*** it, I don't need those healers, they doesn't even deal damage..."

I played for like 7 month on the european, and I saw all the beautiful realeases on the global/japan server and i wanted to play with them so I played on the global server. Very fast I understood how important was a balanced team with tankyness and stuff, bosses were really hard (Trials, sub-bosses in the quest), and I started to follow advices on the wiki (<3 you guys), they were saying: "Anima is the best, you have more HP for tanking", and I was like "what? who needs tanking? more damage are better no?"

Today I played for almost a year on the european server and 4-5 month on the global and I totally changed my mind on the types of units, recently (2 days ago) I've just beaten Zevalhua on the Trial 005 and I'm proud and I thank everyone who said that damage are not necessary, and they were right.

The fact is, In one year I still think oracle is the worst type ever and I'm dodging as much as I can this type, but now I'm opening my arms to 7* units in guardian, because I know the skills of my team and I know that damage is not the problem. When you need some damage, just imp your unit or get some better spheres. The fact is that it's you who decide which type is good or not for your team or wahtever you want to do. You are the one who imp your units and give them spheres, but listen to others advices can be helpful, and youtubers aren't always objectives on this point. I preffer, for example, read Linathan's spotlights on some units and then make my own decision, I take a lot of time to watch details on units.

But a point is important, we focus on some unit because "Oh, this unit in breaker type has so low defense, it can be usefull." Again, imp and spheres are the best way to get rid of those problems, or probably, fill the gap.

Finaly, my preffered types are anima and guardian for sure, and i dislike breaker and absolutely hate oracle, but yet, i don't have the possibility to get 150 gems like we see on the videos of youtubers, so I keep the unit until i find better.

And I just realised that I've talked for a while so here's an invisible potato for you if you have read all my comment :)
