Well, this is convenient. I decided to grab that Light/Dark pack, because it's only money right, and I got a Light Fairy. Obviously it will take me awhile to get it to where it is worth a shit, but when it is I'll definitely make it my shared creature if anyone wants to use it.
Right now I need to decide what my next 5* will be (I currently have Water Warbear, Fire Inugami, and Water Epikion Priest). Some of my potential candidates are as follows:
Water Werewolf
Water Mystic Witch
Wind Sylph
Wind Magical Archer
Wind Living Armor
Fire Living Armor (A)
Fire Phantom Thief
Fire Lich
Fire Yeti
Some of those are quite a ways from being ready to 5*, which obviously affects my decision-making process a little that I'm not detailing here, but am I crazy to think my next one should be the Fire Living Armor? Aside from it being the only one Awakened already, I sort of feel like a second "tank" creature would be nice to have since my Water Warbear pretty much has to be in every group that isn't a cakewalk, and he's not always the right element for the job. Also, I've got him entirely kitted out in 3* Guard runes with Def %, and the concept of a creature that only needs one stat, period, to be effective is sort of appealing to me as well. Anyone have any real experience with it though to know if it is as good as it seems?
My natural 4* creatures, the Sylph, Lich, and Phantom Thief don't really thrill me that much, although my Sylph is max level since it was the first 4* I ever pulled and was my best creature for a long time. Fire Lich has a high rating on that site, but I see a lot of discussion about it not being that great, and it doesn't really excite me much either. Fire Phantom Thief also has a great rating, but the only xp it has is from the building where you put them in it for free xp, so I don't even know wtf it does. And farming the stuff to Awaken any of those does not thrill me in the least.
Thoughts?
EDIT: Crap, just saw the info about the upcoming patch. I guess that could make a big difference in my decision too. Guess I better read it, and hope I haven't dumped any creatures that are suddenly awesome.
