My goals are : Void Mirage, Earth VA, The Uprising Dungeons, Mono squads

I also have a hero selector ticket that I do not know on what unit to use. My units : https://imgur.com/a/5b6KyGw

Thanks for your help :3 Oh, hi there! Nice to see you again! (^^)/

For the sake of wordcount, I'll only be giving you a set of mono-elemental squads as well as for Void Mirage.

This season's vortex arenas all carry unique gimmicks which change player playstyle, the easiest example of which being the Water VA's extra skill lock. Unfortunately, we don't actually know what the gimmick is for this season's Earth VA just yet, so for now I'll just give you a general mono-Earth arena squad. Once we get the specifics, just come back and I'll help fine-tune the squad, mkay?

As for the Uprising Dungeons... well, they require more specialized squads, but again, for the sake of wordcount, we can get into that next time.

Mono-Fire

Blaze OR Azurai (DBB Bonded to Korzan)

Rahotep (DBB Bonded to Neferet)

Amus

Zegstia

Adriesta

Mugen (Friend)

• Set either Azurai or Rahotep as your Lead.

Mono-Water

Jin (Lead)

Tsovinar (DBB Bonded)

Serin

Sennie

Karl (HC filling SP unlocked)

Jin OR Giselle (Friend)

''• You can technically run this squad for Amduat: Night Falls if you'd like to. Cycle through Tsovinar's and Serin's UBBs to grind up DBB shards (i.e. casting one's UBB while leaving the other on Overdrive mode before the turn ends), which you'll use as your main source of DPS.''

Mono-Earth

Wannahon (Lead)

Avani

Nagid

Limilnate

Hetepheres (DBB Bonded to Kawab)

Andaria OR Lydia (Friend)

Mono-Thunder

Vrana

Ma'at

Miriam

Tevarius (DBB Bonded to N'an-Wang-Mu)

Fennia OR Draegar OR Tate&Tama

Vrana OR Paris OR Izuku Midoriya (Friend)

• Set either Vrana, Ma'at, or Miriam as your Lead.

''• You actually have the units needed to run Dekucide, a nuking strategy that makes use of Midoriya's self-harm debuff. If you want to make a Dekucide squad, just reply and I'll gladly make you one! (owo)/''

Mono-Light

Ptah (Lead)

Peter

Vanila

Opal Goddess Tilith

Estia (DBB Bonded to Xenon)

Hakuzo OR Ken Kaneki OR Chizuru Kagura (Friend)

''• You actually have some pretty good Light units - enough to make a decent Dichroma squad, actually! If you'd like one, just reply, mkay? (^^)/''

Mono-Dark

Xenon (DBB Bonded to Estia)

Noxa

Lico

Vohu

Neferet (DBB Bonded to Rahotep)

Set (Friend)

• Set either Xenon, Noxa, Lico, or Neferet as your Lead.

Void Mirage Unit Pool

Ptah

Peter

Vanila

Opal Goddess Tilith

Estia (DBB Bonded to Xenon)

Kranus (Doom Purge SP unlocked)

Lico

Xenon

Any mono-Light Lead (Friend 1)

Chizuru Kagura OR Any Evasion (Friend 2)

''• For Phase 1 (VS Juggernaut), run the mono-Light squad I gave you. Juggernaut will change elements every 3 turns, being immune to whatever element it's currently set to. Use the time it's immune to damage to build up OD, and nuke it with either DBB or a Recast UBB once able.''

''• For Phase 2 (VS Gazia's Barrack), use the same mono-Light squad as in Phase 1. This boss is pretty much just a DPS check. You have to be able to nuke its summoned minions before you get killed by Doom. Each time you kill its minions, it'll refresh your doom counter; however, be warned that this refresh will only continue for three cycles. Once it's summoned its third set of minions, it will no longer refresh your doom debuff. Do note that, for a confirmed but long clear, you can use Sero-Anya's self doom purge buff to bypass this doom nuke; you can then stall for ~100 turns and revive all your dead units using Kranus' UBB once their doom revive debuffs expire. Again, though, this part can be easily cleared with well-timed DBBs.''

• For Phase 3 (VS Gazia, Kranus), use the squad below.

Twilight Squad

Xenon (Lead, DBB Bonded)

Peter

Kranus

Lico OR Vanila

Opal Goddess Tilith

Friend 2

''• You'll want to target Gazia when the Taunt debuff expires, as Gazia'll take less damage when it's up. Make good use of Kranus' and Vanila's/Lico's UBBs, as the battle ends once you push Kranus to 0% HP.''

''• For Phase 4 (VS Kranus), use the same squad as in Phase 3. DBB has made this this portion much quicker to deal with, but you should still be wary. The main gimmick here is that Kranus can only be killed when he says a certain phrase during his attack monologue - otherwise, he heals back to full. The full list of signals are detailed on [https://bravefrontierglobal.fandom.com/wiki/Rift:Andaria#The%20Void%20Lv.4 the Void Mirage wikia page. ]''

''• Your Evasion UBB from either your Friend or Lico is definitely the most important buff here, as it's needed to survive Kranus' high damage output. In addition, Kranus' UBB provides the much needed revive and mitigation buff integral to surviving the heavy damage in later phases. I''

''• Xenon's DBB works wonders here, as it can help deal with the HP reduction debuff. Give Xenon crit-related spheres and buffs so as to better improve his DBB damage.''

Overall, Void Mirage is still fairly hard, but recent updates and the release of DBB has definitely made it much more manageable.

Re: Unit Selector Ticket

As a whole, your unit pool is already solid, so what you'll choose will be based on either Quality of Life adjustments and what content you're aiming to clear.

If we're to consider the first, I'd recommend Gwenevere, since you're lacking a decent Mitigator. Nagid's alright, but he's been powercrept a fair bit.

If we're to consider the second, I'd recommend Ophiuchus, since you can normal attack nuke certain late-game content like Traversing Eternity.

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I hope this helped! (^^)/ Thank you so much ! You already helped me tons with the BF2 dungeons (that I nailed \^^/).

I have my Osiris as an earth mitigator already, do you think he could be good enough as an earth mitigator ?

Edit : there's a whole fire screenshot that didn't make it. I also have : Ellie, Al-Akqat, Annette, Yan&yuan, Baelfyr, Cayena, Aesys, Czorag, Seria.

Same for earth units : Fang, Bjorn, Honoka&Hisa, Osiris, Lydia, Lugina, Armaiti, Fuu

Sorry for messing thins up with imgur ! Yo, congrats on clearing the BF2 dungeons! Go off, fam! v(^^)/

If you're comfortable with running Osiris as your mitigator, then you should be fine without Gwenevere - but do note that, aside from her great synergy within the Earth element, Gwenevere is considered by many to be one of the most slot efficient units within the Earth element. It's fairly hard to come by an Earth mitigator who not only heals and deals with ailments, but also provides offensive buffs like crit, after all - the latter of which you're missing somewhat, unless you want to keep running Wannahon.

I'll make you some updated mono-Earth and mono-Fire squads in light of your new unit pool as well! (^^)/

Mono-Fire

Czorag

Cayena (BC on Spark SP unlocked)

Aesys (DBB Bonded)

Seria

Ellie

Mugen (Friend)

• Set either Czorag, Aesys, or Seria as your Lead.

Mono-Earth

Wannahon (Lead)

Lydia

Osiris (DBB Bonded)

Armaiti

Bjorn OR Honoka & Hisa

Andaria OR Senbonzakura Miku OR Lydia (Friend)

• You can also opt to run Lydia or Armaiti as Leads.

I hope this helped! (^^)/ Thank you much :3 I'm struggling with the Void Mirage, I can't seem to get past the last phase of Kranus

Btw, the phase vs Gazia is actually quite easy to cheese with Vanila's taunt haha Yeah, Vanila works wonders, haha. Bless that unit - she's just a powerhouse!

What problem are you facing in Phase 4? Are you unable to keep casting UBBs efficiently, or is it a lack of damage overall? I struggle a bit with OD fill when my Tilith or my Xenon dies and I also feel like I lack a bit of damage x) In that case, add into your UBB cycle Peter's UBB, which'll give your squad a Recast buff. With the Recast buff, you're able to cast 12 SBBs instead of 6 per turn, allowing you to efficiently build up OD gauge to set up for UBB casting. Should you opt to go this route, your new UBB casting cycle would be as follows: Peter > Vanila > Kranus > Loop. At the very least, though, cycle through Peter & Vanila's UBBs; Kranus' UBB can just be a case-to-case basis depending on which units are dead and which are alive.

Another idea would be to run a Recast friend who also provides an OD fill buff (e.g. Ken Kaneki), and to swap out Peter for an OD filler like Ptah. This would actually be the most optimal choice, as it would allow you to increase your aggregate squad OD fill.

Finally, consider equipping OD filling spheres, like Vrana's Calling, Chrysalis Zeta,  and Vesper Argentum. The former is the most accessible, the materials of which are found in the Raid category of the Event Exchange Hall; note, though, that non-Thunder units won't receive the parameter boost. (^^)/ thank you ! I'm currently doing the R7 raids to get Vrana's calling ! Thanks for all your insight, I hope I can clear it before the event ends ^^
