So my SDE pick is gonna time out soon, and I’m kind of at a loss for who to pick. I’ve narrowed it to the three mentioned, but am unsure which way to go.

Yakumo seems particularly risky with his self-harm mechanic, so I’m thinking that his isn’t a great YOLO choice.

Iphi is a shade setter, and has the blood contract thing that should help me with bosses (I’m not a power player by any stretch), while Sesta is a powerful nuke and wind setter.

Does anyone have any (all?) these characters and able to offer some more insight? I’m F2P outside SDEs, so getting characters is very random for me.

    Yeah, I’m thinking Iphi is probably the better choice for me. The extra lives alone is really hard to ignore. Once you add in the synergies, she’s probably the character with the longest life of the three from a meta perspective.

      Precisely - it’s similar to Alma and Orleya where if nothing else they will remain useful as zone setters, and then once they are there for that, there is quite a bit more they have to offer as well.

      The only downside is that Iphi is quite complicated to fully understand all that she does. The flip side is that more than anyone else in the game, SHE is worth the effort!:-)

      So from a Meta perspective, definitely her.
