My thoughts exactly. C Kadilen is much more useful and usable overall than both Silvaria and Elradir. C. Marjana is also extremly useful and needs the stats buff more than Lewena and Tahir. Devana also needs a boost for damage, while Kara can manage as she is ok, while Vivica is too slow to prioritize.
Yeah that was my thinking too! My biggest debate was C Marj or Lewena because I am planning on fielding Lewena on my Defense team once she is fully embelemed. But I will probably collect enough aethers for her by then.
Lewena, Kara and CKad, you have a very good base for a defense team right there.
CMarj is nice but will not be on def, when you get Lewena ready. Still a nice choice.
Kara is a taunter and they get hit a LOT because it is their job to get hit. More def/HP is what they need. You´ll probably use her both on def and off, so definitly highest priority.
Devana is also a nice choice, but again not for def. Also her hit is crap anyway, improving her stats will only marginally improve damage. Certainly lower priority than Kara.
CViv is also not a bad choice but I don´t think she´ll see as much action as Kara.
Grace is definitely the alternative to CKad, basically a choice between off and def, so see above…
I have Tahir. I pair him with GM and it is pretty much a death sentence for a hero. It would be even deadlier with cMarjana. cMarajana does noeed to be LB to give elemental defense down.
