Well I just beat the game for now. Summoned a tree during the rate up a few days ago. Had my last 5 gems and was thinking about summoning today because the only unit I had was 2x Zelnites but hemmed and hawed about it this morning when I played. Finally got a Xenon to go with my Estia and started on the prologue so knowing I would at least get a gem from that tonight I summoned and got my god damn Darvenshel! So now I have Tree, Darv, Lillithx2, Zelnite x2, DX, Zebra, Lubra, Melc, and at least one good unit of every color if needed. 100% F2P. Feels good man. Just need to level that Darv ASAP and I can rape Maxwell as soon as she's patched in!

Was so excited I went ahead and posted but my now useless kickass units are

Kajah, Zephyr, Duel-SGX
Aem
Ronel, Grybe, Emelia
Lucina, Signas, Rickel, Mariudeth
Ramna, Borg, Aisha
and Grah/Karl with Cayenne, Serrin, Hatsune, Deemox2, and Zebra for stuff where they are useful. So stoked I got Darvanshel!

Zelnite batch 6* releases today or tomorrow apparently. Kinda sad about imps and frogs though. Was nice having the top half of my list greyed out in the fusion menu.

Mine should be. I think Maxwell lead plus my best units might put me a point or two over but my Darv is 60/60 so doubt I can beat her until I evo and level him again at least. 6300hp is cutting it a little fine. Thinking about evoing Zel prior to trying as well. Don't have any Sol Creators so while I have the team for it they just aren't ready I think. Lily Matah friend might be enough as is though will have to see. Need another super Metal Parade >.<.

Wasn't on the wiki so I googled it if anyone else was interested. Shouldn't have fed the 30 or so Dragons I got from campaign for xp I guess : /. Fucking unit cap!

14. Darvanshel/Zelnite/Lilly Matah tier:
1 Miracle Totem
1 [suitable element] Totem
2 Dragon Mimics
1 Metal Mimic

Just out of curiosity - with two spheres - I know what the "Optimum" spheres would be.. But is it even worth it to have 5 top end Paralysis Spheres to equip for content thats able to be paralyzed, 5 Top End Curse, and 5 top end Crit? I built a paralysis one last night, but I started to wonder if Im just wasting my time. Any thoughts? If my whole team is spamming 20-35 hits each from their SBB's... thats a lot of hits for a 15% (and depending on the team, up to a 75% chance) of landing some type of effect that may totally negate a boss. For instance, if hes susceptible to Curse - locking him down with curse every round would just make most bosses trivial - much less a paralyze.

I think it's worthwhile if you already have the BiS general use spheres and are willing to increase you item space for them. It would be a nice thing to have but only if you feel like going through the hassle. With that said I've seen people saying status effects are a huge boost on raids so once those are released they may be a must have.

I find status effects rarely stick to bosses so it's a gamble I'm not willing to take. I'd rather work my way around a fight by utilizing my teams SBBs so the Sol Creator is the way to go.

Sphere frogs are probably going to be less available than Burst frogs (I think I saw something that had just one out of all the FH7 rewards given) so I would more than likely focus on which units to start with and move on from there.

I know this is Global - but Ive seen accounts with multiple teams where each unit has two spheres. Hopefully Global will be that plentiful with them. I havent read anything about stacking an effect on a unit either - so Im assuming if you have a unit that has a 65% chance, giving him a 15% chance sphere will actually increase his percentage. Not negate/ignore one or the other. If I have an 80% chance, putting it on just one character might be enough anyways.

Is that how it works? I'm not positive but I think it might just check one time for % chance stuff. I know with chance to ignore armor stuff it's either every hit ignores it or none, you don't get just 1 out of 28 ignoring so it's not checking every individual hit.

You are probably right, but for some reason I was thinking that when it comes to applying an effect like paralysis - that each hit would be taken into account. I dont spend a lot of time in the brave frontier forums (global/reddit) but Im always hoping someone here does to answer questions like that.
 
I'm pretty sure it only checks once to do status effects with sbb's unless you have a random target sbb. One of the fringe benefits of Eric is his random sbb can have a chance to apply each hit. (but cant crit)
