Yahallo,
F2P player, just beat Goetia with very under-leveled servants (thanks friends) but I'm now grinding to get ready for Shinjuku. As far as archers go, I have an NP5 Arash and an NP4 David. David is a godly support, but I find him lacking in NP damage. I currently have an NP2 Euryale and an NP1 Robin Hood both at level 1, and I'm wondering which one to raise (especially since I have Cas Gil with that nice Arts buff of his).
Secondary question. Wondering who I should stick with for AoE Saber damage. I have NP4 Fergus and NP1 Siegfried both at level 50, but I'm gonna drop one. I know Siegfried can be impressive against dragons eventually and I do plan on raising a Georgios, but I also know that I'm not likely to get him past NP1 and Fergus is more consistent. What do ya'll think?
Both Euryale and Robin Hood are extremly good 3 star art archer.Euryale have anti-male niche while Robin have godly ST np.I think rasing them both will serve you well.
Damage-wise,it is in favor for fergus.I don't have sumanai so i can't say much.But most dragon are rider class so if you want to kill one,you better take an assassin to do it.
Go Gergus, Siegfried is too niche.
Euryale is best against males, because of double charm (skill+NP), aside from the massive dmg. Also, thanks to Whim of the Goddess and Vampirism, she can fill her bar faster, and cause more damage with her regular arts cards.
Robin NP does more dmg, but if the enemy resists the poison, it will be a weak one. He does have a evade post-strenght quest.
They are both good, mind you.
Euryale is better than Robin when the team is built around her, AKA arts stall, not to mention she does massive damage against male sabers and berserkers. Robin Hood is more generalized and doesn't require as much team composition. Neither one is really a better choice than the other, they just do different things and it depends what you want out of a team. However, going back to the arts stall I mentioned before, Euryale and David compliment each other very well so you might want to go with Euryale.
Fergus vs Siegfried is the same issue. Fergus is more generalized while Siegfried is better but usually requires a bit of setup. Probably will want to go with Siegfried since as a 4-star, he's a bit more durable. Raise both eventually, but for now stick with Sieg.
I don't remember which boss, but I had Robin do about 400k damage to one in Solomon (he was either bond 5 or 6, which helped). I can only remember a boss resisting his poison a few times, but it can happen. It might be good to bring a debuff resistance down servant (or a CE on Robin to do the same probably at the cost of damage) if a boss is known to have high resistance. If you level his poison skill to 10, it has 100% uptime (CD matches duration, barring debuff removal).
When I started, I preferred general servants to niche ones. I do finally have Euryale leveled decently, but her skills aren't yet. I'm not very fond of stall teams, but I can see the usefulness.
Robin is a bit of a one-trick pony but is really good at what he does, his NP damage is consistently the highest against most enemies out of all 3 star archers. Euryale can do more than Robin can, but everything she does is more niche, specifically anti-male (stall/nuke). Imo you really can't go wrong with either.
As for sabers, I would go with Fergus probably. In terms of NP damage output, Fergus at NP4 is stronger than NP1 Siegfried, not to mention you will have Fergus at NP5 eventually. The only thing Siegfried has over Fergus at this point is his debuff clear, and they are fairly tied in most other respects.
