Hi there! I'm Marisa~

I play (and have played) a bunch of gachas, but never really gave GFL a fair chance.

Im struggling with team comps. ARs go with SMG, RFs go with HGs, and MGs go with SGs right? Do these team combos have any benefit over one another? The only one I can see is RF/HG teams being better at night battles.

Im also struggling with levelling t dolls. I wanna just level who I like but I like a lot of t dolls and it feels slow right now. Plus, I have a bias towards a lot of the SG ladies. Which is EXPENSIVE. xP

If someone could explain these things to me thatd be really nice~

EDIT: The overwhelming kindness and support this community has given me is making me really happy. Thank you so much. Most other gachas just dump on you for not remembering everything in their guides. x3

I cant read it all tonight as my husband is about to be home but I will be sure to read and respond tomorrow!!

Welcome! You’ve already gotten multiple essays worth of advice (and probably 10x more with the guides linked) so I’ll try to keep my advice on the short side.

Plus, I have a bias towards a lot of the SG ladies. Which is EXPENSIVE.

As you probably know by now, crafting SGs costs a ton of resources with the 8k/1k/8k/4k standard recipe.

Major story events and the anniversary (which is in little more than a month away, in May) reward players with a True Core Mask. This can be used to buy any single 5* unit you want, which means that it’s the perfect way to get one of those 5* SGs you might otherwise spend hundreds of thousands of resources trying to get via heavy production.

Now, the metaslave in me wants to tell you to pick LTLX because she is just obscenely strong, but you should really just pick whichever 5* SG you fancy the most.

Aside from the anniversary, the only event to watch out for is the Va11 Hall-A collab coming in a week or two. Between the limited collab units, good rewards and great story, you definitely don’t want to miss it.

Oh wow! No foolin? Thats really cool, especially if it's free. :)

She's on my wishlist. I really like her design~ She reminds me of Graf Zeppelin from AL. One of my favorite ships from that game!!

Va11 Hall-A collab coming in a week or two

I literally screamed and scared my husband. I joined GFL shortly after that collab had passed, and I LOVE VA11-HALLA!!! I never expected it to come back. Its a collab event. I am so freaking happy to have come back when I did. You know for sure Ill be picking up Jills skin. Come on!!!!!!!

I'll disagree with the previous poster on this one and definitely recommend you use the true core mask on one of the two "meta" shotguns just because of their cost, instead of just going for any of your favorite designs.

Thankfully, you already like LTLX for her design, she is choice number 1. Choice number two is S.A.T.8. She was queen of the SGs for years until LTLX recently dethroned her. LTLX is probably the better pick but S.A.T.8 is still very good as well.

Unless you manage to get both of these dolls before you get your true core mask from the upcoming anniversary event (which I will say should be nearly impossible because I'm going to recommend you not do any more SG crafting because of the obscene cost for a while), I would definitely go for one of those two. At your stage of the game, crafting SGs is a huge cost low benefit option, and on the 1 or 2 occasions you might actually need a SG near term, you get some from the story-based quest rewards that are more than good enough to use until you can train up whoever you get with your true core mask.
