More fun red tank, Zephiel or Arden?
Hi all, I'm a F2P player who just enjoys messing around with different characters for PvE play. I was thinking of promoting either Zephiel or Arden to 5* and wondered the pros and cons of each. Thinking Arden looks fun with his follow-up ring and brave weapon, though I imagine he would get completely destroyed by any mage. Either way, I don't have a lot of expensive fodder to upgrade either of them.

Arden is better with less investment, but you are correct, mages absolutely shred him. He needs boots, armor march, or clever movement assists to avoid magic damage at all costs (including dragons). He's a great physical wall, and even most blue units can't take him down.
Zephiel needs a couple key ingredients to be good. First of all, a refined weapon, which can be an investment in itself. Distant counter makes him an absolute beast, but as an f2p player, if you get that skill, it's probably better to keep the og unit intact or put it on your favorite character. He can take a hit from green mages and red mages better than Arden especially with wary fighter, so he's a little more versatile and less dependent on positioning. He won't score a ton of kills, but he's a trooper.
