Takeaways

• 😀 Prioritize building characters that are easy to obtain and can progress you through the campaign, such as Nomi and Momoy.
• 😀 Nomi is a powerful AOE character who can wipe out large groups of enemies, making her essential early in the game.
• 😀 Momoy is also a great AOE character, but her rarity may make her harder to obtain compared to Nomi, so focus on Nomi if you're starting.
• 😀 For defensive units, Subaki is recommended as she is a strong and versatile tank capable of carrying through many stages.
• 😀 Yuka is another strong tank, and although she’s a bit expensive, she’s a good option to complement your team.
• 😀 For red-type AOE damage, Muki is highly recommended, as she has a larger range and can be used in multiple game modes, including raids.
• 😀 Akari is another option for red-type AOE, but her range is smaller compared to Muki, making her less versatile in some situations.
• 😀 If you need a blue-type AOE character, Chis is one of the best free-to-play options with a decent damage multiplier and great utility.
• 😀 Muki and Chis are considered future-proof characters, meaning they will remain useful long after the early game due to their versatility and strength.
• 😀 Karu is a great healer to use if you need AOE healing, and if you don’t have her, Serena is a solid alternative for single-target healing.
• 😀 The overall strategy for new players should focus on obtaining strong, low-cost units for AOE damage and reliable tanks to progress through the story stages efficiently.

Q & A

Which characters are recommended for new players to build early on in Blue Archive?

New players are recommended to build characters like Nomi and Momoy for AOE damage, as well as Subaki for tanking. For healing, Koharu or Serena can be used depending on availability.

Why is it important to be cautious when building characters in Blue Archive?

It’s crucial because resources in Blue Archive can be scarce, and once a character is built, you cannot reset or recover the materials used. Building the wrong character could waste valuable resources.

What makes Nomi a good character to prioritize in Blue Archive?

Nomi is a strong AOE character with an EX skill that can clear large areas of enemies. She’s easy to obtain and is highly effective for progressing through the campaign.

Why is Momoy considered 'racist' according to the video?

The term 'racist' refers to a viral song associated with Momoy that includes offensive language, specifically the N-word. However, this is unrelated to her gameplay usefulness.

What are the key differences between Muki and Akari for AOE damage?

Muki has a wider range and is more useful in certain raid scenarios, making her a more future-proof character. Akari, though good, has a smaller circular AOE and is less effective in some situations compared to Muki.

What makes Muki a safer choice compared to other AOE characters?

Muki is a 2-star character who is easily accessible and useful both in the story and some raid scenarios. She has high AOE damage potential, and her skills are strong even when at lower star levels.

Why is Chisi recommended over other Blue type AOE characters?

Chisi is recommended because she has a high damage multiplier for her AOE abilities, and she’s available in the story stages, making it easier to farm and level her compared to other characters like Haruna or limited options like New Year Muki.

What are some drawbacks of using Haruna as an AOE character?

Haruna's AOE range is limited, and her EX skill cost reduction to 3 can be expensive to achieve, requiring her to be leveled up to EX5, which may not be feasible for newer players.

Is Hina a good AOE character to prioritize in Blue Archive?

While Hina has strong potential, her high cost (7) makes her less ideal for early players. Characters like Muki or Akari are recommended instead because they are more cost-effective.

Which tank characters should be prioritized in Blue Archive?

Subaki is a top-tier tank that can carry players through most stages. Yuka is also a solid tank choice and can be used as an alternative, depending on the player's roster.
