yes, you were wise and started a new topic for your “troubles”, my post, were in a big topic:
Like you see, my roster isn’t quite good as yours and you get in trouble in ascension materials, so I suggest, you can choose, wether you start to leveling 3 or 4 stars, but 4 stars only to 3/60, then you need rare ascension materials to last tier. My opinion, first 3* because its quicker.
Its cheaper and faster to raise 3* to 3/50 (maxed out) than 4* to 3/60 (waiting ascension materials to last tier)
I think you have found the post which gave you as much recruits, wooden swords and pack pacs to get feeding material to you heroes?
