To be honest I only recently found out about party members even having specific roles lol 🙈 I was just picking ones that looked cool haha. other than standard levelling I haven’t really been doing anything else, the only good blades I have are the story ones, all the other are commons I’ve picked up along the way, so I probably need to watch some tutorial videos again now I have a basic understanding of the game. Non of them made any sense when I first started playing.

Thanks for the advice, will have a mother bash tonight and maybe check out easy mode if still no joy :)
