The big utility effects are Awoken Bind Clear actives and Damage Absorb Null actives. If your leader skill doesn't have an auto-FUA clause then you'll want one of your subs to have the FUA/Bonus Attack awakening to deal with enemies with resolves.Īs you get into mid game (and even just Arenas 1-3) you'll start wanting utility in your subs too. If your leaders have a 2x or higher HP multiplier each but no RCV multiplier then you'll probably want one of your subs to make up for that, usually through Heart Orb Enhance awakenings. Arena 4, Shura 1, and PAD Pass day 26, or trading). If you're running a rainbow leader (requires more than 2 attributes attacking for activation) then the VDP awakening won't be very easy to make use of, so you'll need either an active skill that bypasses voids (like Akine or Aljae) or the VDP latent (mostly only comes from Alt. Once you're into mid game (past Arena 3 and into descends within the past 2-3 years) you'll want at least one big damage sub on your team to have the VDP (Damage Void Pierce) awakening. You'll usually want at least 2-3 members of your team to deal big damage, often through 7c or 10c awakenings. One off-color/type sub often won't be a big deal if they provide enough utility. Does the leader give a multiplier to a specific color or typing? Then you'll probably want subs to mostly or entirely fit that. The first thing to look for is subs that fit any passive requirements. Once you have your leader picked out you'll want subs, of course.
