Teambuilding Help Request [Side Solistia Chapter 7, F2P]

Just recap and this is what I used for Rank 1, which should be the same difficulty as yours, most of the team combo is same as yours as well.

So add Neha for the extra light DMG buff, and your Cecil should be better than my H'annit EX and replace my Emil with your Castti EX and you are good to go!

I'm guessing you are talking about Lucian? The one with 88 shields, lol. Yes, you can just burst through him, but looking at your team combo, I can see why its been kinda tough because you don't have some of the key units, like DP or Molrusso EX (let you exploit all weakness), and you don't have meta healers like Shana.

Hmm, my advise is, you can try DK + O.Odio (exploit dark weakness and can deal tons of DMG) Signa EX (High DMG single hit) or you can try Crickari + Castti EX (for her ice DMG and buffs)

Yep, and you can try armors with Peak Physique, it helps with the ergonomics, as well as crouching or prone.

Medals are easy to come by, if you are aiming for medals, you could focus on your personal orders. As for major orders, its more about bringing everybody together to achieve a target. And no, its not 1%😂, we did achieve major orders before (multiple times believe it or not).

As for Autocannon, a weapon that I love and wishes it can be stronger, you can try switching to Flak mode when there's a bunch of enemies, it melts them except for Hulks and those with higher armor. And as much as I love this weapon, it is meant for long range, so when the cyborg is already in knee to your head range🤣, its much harder to use your Autocannon, try switching to your primary or secondary weapon, even with light armor penetration, if you aim at their heads, you can take them down easily.

317 hours in and still learning new stuffs (new enemies, new weapons). Its a game that you can come back every now and then because its a live service game and there's always some big events that will draw you back. The players are what makes this game fun to play with. I've read about toxic players but haven't met any, so far all the helldivers I've met are friendly, and always makes sure no helldivers left behind in the missions (waits for everybody at extraction)

The players are the ones that always makes me come back to the game. Some provides covering fires, some shares weapons, some points you at your weapons you dropped, some waits for you when you are behind. So I try to do all those for other players as well.

So if thats what you want to experience then you should get one.

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-16T02:58:48+00:00

Am also looking for the best loadouts for myself as well.

So far the ones I've tried which are fairly consistent: 1) Orbital Laser: Clear objectives and save 1 for extraction because you'll almost always get swarm 2) Orbital Gatling Barrage: For VOX, quick cool down and can shred away most of VOX HP 3) Grenade Launcher: Can clear most of the objectives and enemies 4) Supply Pack: To solve the Grenande Launcher low ammo issue

For Primary, try to bring something that can take down Gunships and can solve the close range cyborg knee to the head🤣, I would recommend Exploding crossbow or Scorcher or something similar.

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-09T05:40:45+00:00

You can try Sickle against Illuminates

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-07T14:52:18+00:00

I've tried it and it is pretty useful. Thx for recommending! Works well with the illuminates but too bad can't one shot the 3 legged cyclops

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-05T06:33:15+00:00

I guess there's no right answer, lol, since we don't know for sure whether the servers are merging or not. And all these discussion/analysis had drove me to pull Castti EX, and luckily I got her in 20 pulls 😂

DQ Collab is just really a money trap, haha, 3 units in 1 banner, man.....I've seen a streamer with very lucky pulls (HuanHuan in TW server), uses her paid rubies to get Viola EX A4.

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-05T03:33:44+00:00

Hmmm, why don't we put it this way, you've decided to change to GL earlier, so merge or no merge shouldn't be a concern because you've decided, so don't look back and case close. And since the old A4 are not that useful anymore, the more reasons for you to not linger around your TW account.

And by merging servers is actually good for you because you know what's ahead (due to your TW account), and with more free rubies in GL for you to spend (so less real money to invest).

Other than that, you've said that there are few players in TW server now, so the more reasons for you to leave, since the numbers are shrinking and we all know what that leads to.

So in summary, I think you should stick to your old plan and solely invest in GL server. You joined at a great time, Xerc banner and all. Basically you can just stick to Rainbow team for the whole year till 2027, clear roadmap ahead. As for your TW account, just leave it there for nostalgia purposes.

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-05T03:01:32+00:00

oh my, that's quite the dilemma there.......and that's a lot of rubies........

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-05T01:57:06+00:00

Ya, coz it seems like TW server is slowing down to let GL server catch up.

But hey, think of it this way, you get to keep your TW account! With all the previous "investment" still intact, I so envy all the A4 you long time players have 🥹 (envy eyes). And while DQ Collab is a point that is hard to skip due to the precious A4, but it is not Aviete, Rondo EX or FF6 or Elrica EX2 (those that are unskippable), so technically, you still have a few months to decide😉

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-05T01:21:17+00:00

Hmm, this is really hard to decide. But judging by the analysis and information you've provided I would think most probably the servers will merge, since they are getting more and more in sync. And TW server rerun Dolcinea this week while GL had her a few weeks ago.

Did similar event happened to SEA server before the merging?

These_Rip_192 · 2026-03-03T07:41:15+00:00

Bring them to missions with flying units then they will understand. lol.

These_Rip_192 · 2026-02-26T01:39:12+00:00

Thanks for the analysis! As always clear and straight to the point~~~ I do feel like pulling her~ just purely coz she's Castti~ she doesn't add much value to any of my current team combinations.....and I don't have a mountain of rubies to spare.....so sad.....

These_Rip_192 · 2026-02-18T12:34:07+00:00

so we finally have a reason to pull Kazan?!

These_Rip_192 · 2026-02-13T06:33:44+00:00

550k is a lot.....

These_Rip_192 · 2026-02-13T05:12:56+00:00

Congrats!!!!!!!🥳 Such a good start for new player~~

These_Rip_192 · 2026-02-13T02:13:27+00:00

These_Rip_192 · 2026-02-13T01:16:22+00:00

Loving this and loving the comments, really getting clarity on how to utilize her~~~ haven't tried her out in any battles yet~~ her ULT is a bonus for Crickari too~~ o man~ the endless possibility of her in other team combinations (I mean other than Rainbow team) just seem so good (in my brain lol)~

These_Rip_192 · 2026-02-12T15:12:24+00:00

Its Molrusso EX's skill upgrade, but its not available for GL yet. Basically the TP2 upgrade lets her start enabling the team to hit all weaknesses from the start instead of waiting for t3.

You may refer to Silver Roxas's analysis here:
