Newbie Freya Question

8 years ago

Hey everyone, im kinda new to the game like 4-5 days old and recently i got to the point where i must choose a path for freya.The problem is i dont have many other units, my only other 5* potential unit is luthor and i have no idea what could be the most useful build in general for freya...im split between berserk and dragoon.

Go for freya dragoon. She has better mobility and her stun may prove useful to you in story and in gold mines, which are important since you just started out.

Go for Berserker/Warlord/Gladiator, all 3 which are perfect for her class except for Dragoon. 

If you need a jumper for gold mines, you can get a Lancer Fiona to help with.

I have a Gladiator Freya and I'm enjoying using her for PVP. She's tanky enough and her skill hits in a line with DOT and stun. But all in all, It just depends on what you want your team set up to be. Berserker Vincent is arguably better than Zerk Freya if you manage to LB him. But if you want someone who hits hard from the get go then by all means. She's squishy though so prepare some support. Dragoon for some stun locking. It's kinda fun shutting down hard hitters with her Skill/Aura.

Currently have a 3 star Freya with Ares faith. I already have a Freya Dragoon, and I was considering using the new Freya to just limit break the Dragoon.
Now I'm considering making her a berserker instead, because of your comment. I would just like to request for more information regarding your post as to why you think Berserker/Warlord/Gladiator are perfect for her, while Dragoon isn't. Information/stats/facts would greatly help me justify my decision.
Thanks for the help :)

Okay before I give more information to back up my previous post, I would like to say that if you have a 3 star Freya with Ares faith, please please don't waste that faith to be a lb fodder, most of Freya's classes are actually really good and you could slot two different Freya in the same squad to work well!

Why I think Freya Dragoon is bad is because you're basically jumping out of position and stunning for one turn (which is a really low duration since it's just one turn!) without any shield to help, so you'll probably be aimed and killed by the next turn easily in arena or even PvE (although most of the time in PvE, you want to maintain your formation for auras), Vincent has the shield to actually shield him from being out of position so he can actually do a follow-up from his new position. 

Gladiator is really good because she stuns and burns the ground for two turns in a row, meaning that they're guaranteed to eat the entire burn since they're stunned!

Warlord is good as well because of her Command Aura and pull utility both combined in a unit.

Now, regarding Berserker, I used to think Vincent > Freya because Vincent has 'better' drawbacks (-20% HP per turn as opposed to losing defence) and a 'better' aura, but after owning a Freya Berserker, I have found out that neither of those are totally true, with proper units beside your Freya, revenge aura actually has a 65.7% chance of retaliating and stunning the target instead of 30% plus with her defence already that low (she's on low end 2k), a 30% wouldn't hurt her defence much as compared to a penalty on a way higher def unit since percentage scales, while Vincent takes off 40% of his max HP no matter what. 

Of course, if you're able to MLB a Vincent or even have a Vincent and plan to make him into a Serk and MLB him, by all means go ahead with skipping Serk on Freya but if you're unable to, a Berserker Freya would bring immediate returns in both Arena and PvE (especially Capitol 3). 

Speaking from your perspective, you're relatively new, so a hard hitter from get go like the above poster mentioned would benefit you the most in your stage of the game, unless you want to leave it to the premium rolls for Vincent (which isn't guaranteed, by the way).

My gladiator with 2 friends buffing her, can easily burst down enemy in a row with her skill.
If I got more Freya with ares or Zeus faith, I would like to go on Freya Berserker to combo with my trigger team

You're successful in convincing me to turn my 3-Star into a berseker or Gladiator. I'll mull over this decision as I wait for more Job Quest keys.  :mrgreen:
Information regarding why I should one over the other would be insightful as well.
