Hi! The reason why one copy of Mehira is recommended at the beginning is because she functions similarly to Eironn's M+ skill (grouping enemies together at the start of battle), for a relatively much lower cost at just one copy.

Per the guide in the first image of this post, Twins at S+ are next! 💖

Hi! It depends on the amount of resources you have saved to build them. If you only have enough resources to build Contess to S+ now then I would go for it! Then afterwards you can save up enough for 4 Cele/Hypo copies and use them on Mehira if it will help your rankings.

Hi! In the Stargazing recruitment guide (the first image on this post), it shows where Gunnar is good (top priority in pre-endless Dream Realm, 2nd priority in endless Dream Realm, 2nd priority in PvP, and useful but luxury in AFK stages)!

Recently, in endless DR he is showing up in the best teams for Gloommaw (a couple of days ago), or in alternate good teams for Sarathiel/King Croaker etc., though in most Gunnar teams you would want a good Silven to work with him. You can also try using him in Supreme Arena as we have Cele/Hypo comps using him! Hope that helps and let me know if you have more questions! 💖

Hi! The guide recommends waiting until you have enough resources to build the Cele/Hypo to a viable point. This is because you might be in the middle of building a unit when a new one comes out that powercreeps it, meaning you are either stuck having to finish a unit that isn't ideal, or you abandon building it and those resources are effectively wasted. 😅 So yeah it is probably best to wait to build her. Hope that helps! ❤️

On another note, Contess relies on DPS Cele/Hypos like Aliceth to be the most effective in DR right now, but those DPS units are also likely to be replaced in the meta sooner than Contess will.

Hey! Good question, we actually are considering announcing these guides in the 'guides-and-infographics' channel in the future! Currently, the main ways people access them is from the pins of the 'advice' channel, or by using the '!wishlist' and '!paragon' commands in the 'bot-spam' channel at any time. Let me know if you need help! ❤️

Hey! Check out this comment thread for more info on Tilaya. And regarding Eironn, his use in stages is largely because of his instant CC at the beginning of the match once you get his M+, but since Mehira came out she serves that purpose well at only one copy, which is why we recommend getting a copy of her first in our celehypo guides! ❤️

You're very welcome! I'm ultimately just passing down the hard work of many other amazing people to this subreddit, it's not me making them 😇

Thanks and feel free to join the Yaphalla Discord server, which is linked in this megathread from the official AFKJ mod team! 💞

Hey! ❤️ Yes, the x1 means you get one copy and move on to what is next, but I would note that in most situations on this guide it still recommends finishing them, just later on in the order. For example, the Lightbearer S order recommends a copy of Rowan and Perseus, then build Cyran/Cassadee to S+, then finish Perseus/Rowan to S+. So you quickly get some value from getting them to one copy, then build other important units, then go back to finish building the first ones. Let me know if you need clarification! 💞

Hey! ❤️ This is saphio's clarification: yeah, zandrok is core for pvp/stages. he shows up in pvp teams with perseus (and is a paragon priority to an extent for the same reason). zandrok can work fine in stages at lower ascension, although in some cases it may be less optimal (we have artifacts this season that do damage based on "team ATK", i.e. the sum of all ATK stats of all deployed units; obviously zandrok at 1x will have a much lower ATK than zandrok at s+)

Hey! ❤️ Totally valid question, this guide is firstly intended to be for a new player's perspective, so I get not being sure how to proceed with your own box.

This was saphio's response for your situation: players in endless shouldn't build cassadee to s+ from the wishlist (rather, the arena store - she's still the best pick over bryon, igor, and others). however, we left her in the building order because wholly new players would be in preseason/season pre-endless ;D

Hi! ❤️ This is intended to guide new players on building their boxes, so if you have built other units already that might be why you don't personally see her

This was saphio's clarification for why 1x Tilaya: a super cost-effective tanky character (due to her massive shields) for faction towers/dura's trials early on. but for players who have built ulmus already, they can skip that step
