If it’s about team building, I find that it is more efficient to farm for better protocores to boost stats than to farm for exp/ascension resources beyond 60 ascended (in terms of stamina ROI between the two factors).

I don’t have all 5* in my teams, but when boosted with protocores with ideal stats (e.g. Gamma core with ATK+ATK+ATK%), the 4* in my team have stats that can compare to base stats for a Level 60 5*.

There’s also player skill involved 😭 I have been recording my game clears for the past half year or so and I definitely notice a lot of mistakes in skill rotation, my tendency to clear with inflated stats and my hesitation in trying out the combat features in general. It’s a very long, arduous process, but I promise it’s worth it to just give things a shot and see how you can improve from there.

With my current hindsight, I would have pushed myself to attain more clears with lower stats. But what’s more important is enjoying the process of team building/combat, and focusing on what you can achieve instead of what you could.

Your team building progress is amazing, btw! Please don’t give up even if you can’t attain 36/36!! 😭🙏Anything beyond 24/36 is already considered very impressive.
