Which one should I pick? Tridon is still a viable unit to use now if you want to go up against trials, GGC, etc. However, take not that bc/hc will be heavily resisted so that's one downside of using Tridon. He still has the non-elemental shield and now he has the water barrier which helps tanks enormous damage from enemies but won't help with percentage based damage. His tristat boost is insane as your attack and defense is boosted by the extreme recovery buff. However, he doesn't remove status ailments but only prevents them for 3 turns. He also has an insane HoT buff which also helps.

Argeus, on the other hand is a super high quality sphere with insane parameter boosts and damage boosts. Take note that critical damage won't work against high end bosses ex. strategy zone. It still works well for the spark and parameter boosts. It's best as a Frontier Hunter sphere.

I had this dilemma today but I took Argeus instead of Tridon because the sphere is just so damn cool. For you, you might want to pick Argeus if you want better parameter boosts or if you need of more defensive units, then pick Tridon
