Best 4 Star Units

Special thanks to the COTC god of wisdom Shizukatz for his notes on useful 4*. He made a fantastic video on reviewing all 4* units here.

During the global launch, most players won’t have a full roster of 5* units to use. You’ll need to raise 4*, and probably 3* units to supplement your team to take advantage of different weapon/element types.

I want to stress that all 4 star units are useful because of weapon and elemental advantages. The list below is therefore subjective but educational.

TLDR

• Sigrid, Trish

• Pia, Barrad, Devin

• Kurtz, Asylte, Wingate

• Shelby, Merrit

• Lucetta

• Any Cleric

• Peredir

• Any Dancer

Best 4 Star Warriors #

Sigrid

• 3-star passive reduces Sword resistance of all foes for 3 turns, complimenting heavy DPS sword users like Fiore

• Has 3-hit Sword skill to help break fast (breakfast is yummy)

Trish

• Can restore HP to an ally

• Pretty tanky, gives self Regen and absorbs 10% of all damage dealt when attacking

• 3-hit Sword skill for breaking

Best 4 Star Merchants #

Pia

• Incredible 15% Physical Attack buff to front row ally while taunting all the enemies

• 3% leaves bonus – farming OP

• Can debuff Spear Res of all foes

Barrad

• Single target Spear DPS king (like a Spear version of our DPS god Fiore)

• Can self buff ATK, Spear damage, and Regen

Devin

• Can taunt all foes and counter physical attacks

• Self buff DEF and Regen

Best 4 Star Thieves #

Kurtz

• Can debuff enemy ATK, Wind Res, and Speed (great synergy with Scarecrow)

• Can heal ally

Asylte

• Can debuff Ice Res of all foes and raise Ice Damage of paired allies (great pairing with Sofia, but be warned, Asylte won’t increase Sofia’s Ice Damage up any further)

• Multi-hit Ice and Dagger attacks for breaking

Honorable mention to Wingate, a dark Thief who can raise damage to broken enemies and lower any enemy’s shield points.

Best 4 Star Apothecaries #

Shelby

• Put her on the back of your team to raise Ailment Res of front row by 50% (4 star Rita has the same passive)

• 3-hit Axe skill for breaking

• Can cure paralysis and weakness, granting immunity

Merrit

• Put her in the back row and give Regen to your front paired ally (hp battery bank)

• Can heal ally

• Cute as hell

Best 4 Star Hunters #

Lucetta

• 3-hit Bow and 2-hit Ice attacks for easy breaking

• Debuff all enemy Physical Def and this duration is extended by passive

Best 4 Star Clerics #

So all of them are great even if you have 5 Star Cleric Millard. Ramona for pure healing and regen, Cedric for healing and bleed passives, Menno for healing and to support your wind DPS units.

Best 4 Star Scholars #

Peredir

• Can reveal weak points of foes, great if you don’t want to memorize their weak points or follow a guide

• Put him on the back row and let him stay there to use that 1* passive

Other notable ones include Laura (lightning DPS), Noelle (10% EXP bonus and debuff EATK/EDEF), and Heinz (dark DPS).

Best 4 Star Dancers #

All of them are useful for their buffs/debuffs and utility. You can’t go wrong with pulling Dancers!
