Hey guys, so I thought id open a new discussion on using Valianites efficiently. I've been playing this game for a month now and was thinking to use my Valianites for the 3* Hero Selector. However, I've noticed that despite getting the hero you want, sometimes the faith you get is disappointing. Moreover, I am quite happy with my hero pulls as I got Sven on the 3rd day of the new event and also have:
-Vincent:Guardian
- Lucielle-:Arcibishop
-2 Ronan: Mind warder, Rune Magus
-3 Faye: one 5* Paladin, one is going to be Holy Defender and other for limit break
- Sven-Berserker
I have other 5* as well but those are heroes with bad Faith and generally weaker.
I currently have 16 valianites and am thinking of using the valianites to get the 5* equipment selector to complete my Titan's Might Set as I already have the ring and sword. The 5* set are quite important but I do want Cybella as I really want an archer. So my questions is, to all the veteran players out there, what did you use your Valianites for? Is there certain situation where you need to use your Valianites differently?
Re: Recommended use for "Valianite"
In my personal belief, the prioritization should be:
Heroes > Equipment > Faith > Limit Breaking
1st Priority (Heroes) - I believe that having a varied pool of heroes will help you in any aspect of the game. There are certain heroes best used in arena, events, raids, etc. so having a decent variety of heroes is definitely my priority. Get that 3 Star Hero/Summoner Selector if you believe you lack in support/firepower specially you mentioned you still dont have one archer. It doesn't matter yet even if they have bad faiths in the early game.
2nd Priority (Equipment) - The next thing heroes need are those equipment as they rocket their stats up. Get those 5 star equipment selectors specially if you already have 2/4 or 3/4 of a set and have a smile once you get those bonus stats in completing them! It doesn't matter yet if these equipment sets have bad suffixes (e.g. Champs sets with Wizardry, etc.)
3rd Priority (Faith) - Now that you have decent pool of heroes with decent equipment sets, it's time to fix the Gods in which your heroes worship. Get those pixie selectors and Have your Mages finally worship Athena instead of the mighty Hera! I usually try to reroll their faith with 5 star fodders before deciding to buy a pixie as they are cheaper!
4th Priority (Equipment 2.0) - After correcting your Heroes' faith, it is now time to correct your equipment sets' suffixes. You dont want your assassins/ninjas wielding complete 5 star set equipment with all wizardry! Go reforge them with 1 valianite. It might be costly but who knows when will Lady Luck strike?
5th Priority (Limit Breaking) - Ok, I get it, your Faye HD has good faith (Kratos/Hercules) and decent equipment sets (5 Star Sets with "Of Defense") so what now? The next challenge is to get them to their maximum potential at level 40! Go back to those 3 star hero/summoner selectors and brag those Level 40 Avatars!
6th Priority (Costume) - No explanation needed. Those little stats and unique aesthetics do not really add any in-game value for now (Personal opinion).

Re: Recommended use for "Valianite"
I generally agree with Ferico's list, but I would like to add on that sometimes exceptions exist. The guiding principle should be where the Valianite expenditure makes the biggest difference to the entire team/squad and not just the performance of one hero. That is why heroes take priority due to their generally unique skills and auras. In fact, I think linking the right auras together have more of an impact in PvE than faith or equipment.
For example, I rely on Gunslinger Cybella for my 3-archer trigger team backline... spending that 10 Valianite to change her faith to Hera boosted her trigger rate by 11% at least and it was noticeable.
I think another case would be where you need your bad faith SDD (single damage dealer) to maximize damage and your bad faith Guardian to be as beefy as possible, so it would be good to boost faith there. It makes as big an impact as completing a set (or even more) as it has teamwide implications.

Thought point 4 and 5 can be concurrent running, since LB use gold only. The other priority u need to think of is the aura direction. It may not that critical, but it does affect ur formation when u want to link up all the 5 heroes.
