Discussion Weekly Advice Thread 31/08/2026
Welcome to the WAT, summoner! Post questions regarding team composition, content progression, game mechanics, or anything else in this thread. If you are able to help your fellow summoners, please take some time to contribute to the community and answer some questions yourself as well!
A lot of helpful guides and resources can be found in the subreddit mega wiki.
Please also make sure to check out our FAQ.
If you ask a question please give ALL relevant information!
- Your monster box: Upload a screenshot to Reddit directly or an image hosting site like imgur or use swarfarm. Sort your box by "Grade" and try to include all 4*s and LD nat 3*s.
- Your current progression: Where you currently are in the game, what your teams are, what content you need help with and what you have tried so far.
- For ToA, which enemies are on the floor you're stuck on.
- For PvP, indicate what rank you are trying to achieve, i.e. currently F3 want to get C1 Arena. For RTA also share your rank percentage.
The less people have to ask you to clarify or look up to help you, the more likely you will get a (fast) response.
Beginner friendly/farmable PvE teams
- GB10: Vero (L), (2A) Kro, Shannon, Belladeon, Darion or Vero (L), Fran, Loren, (2A) Kro, Shannon/Lapis
- GB12: Vero (L), (2A) Kro, Shannon, Belladeon, Darion or Vero (L), Fran, Loren, 2A Kro, Shannon/Lapis/Akhamamir/Sigmarus
- DB12: Verde (L), Vero, Loren, 2A Spectra, Fran/2A Raoq
- PB12: Verde (L), (2A) Belladeon, 2A Raoq, 2A Kro, 2A Kahli/Riley/Eirgar (L -> R -> Boss)
- SB12: Fran, Loren, 2A Kro, 2A Raoq, Ling Ling
- NB12: Fran + 4 multihit DDs: Pick from Icaru/Raoq/Kro, Kung Fu Girls, Loren, twins (Shaina, Sabrina, Talia), Abigail, Scarlett (unawakened)
- SRB12: Verde (L), Shaina, Sieq, Astar, 2A Raoq
- ToA(H): Fran (L), Vero (also possible L), 2A Spectra, Mav, + Loren/Shannon/Mellia/Tyron
- R5 solo teams: Check this thread
- R5 stat minimum: You need 25k HP and 1.5k DEF for FL units and 20k HP and 0.8-1k DEF for BL units. Healers and your cleanser should have 100% RES after lead.
- Rift unit options: Xiao Lin, Theomars, Fran, Colleen, and 2A Kro can be used in most of your rift teams. FL Mav/Bernard is good for Water rift and Lapis is good for Fire and Dark rifts. Twins are great in all rifts.
You still need appropriate rune quality and turn order! Do not expect to beat a dungeon just by having these units.
Common speed teams

General tips and answers to Frequently Asked Questions:
- NEVER feed non-farmable monsters! (you can feed dupes for skill ups)
- Save your devilmons! In general you do not want to give devilmon to 4* units, Sigmarus and Jeanne are the best early game candidates. Veromos does not need devilmon.
- Best summon stone targets: Tyron, Lushen, Shaina, Sabrina, Talia. For PvP Khmun, Skogul, Galleon.
- Check the events for free energy, mana, and other beneficial stuff. To find the current event pages use the button below the energy/mana counter in-game.
- Lapis can farm Faimon Hell on the free 6* level 15 vampire/revenge runes provided by the challenges. She should be your first 5* and probably 6* as well.
- Shield sets can reduce the HP/DEF requirements on other units and multiple shield sets will stack to form one larger total shield. Each set contributes a shield equal to 15% of the base HP of the monster they are equipped on.
- White artifacts from B2 are cheap to upgrade and can give you a massive stat boost early.
- Hall of Heroes (HoH) should be attempted as high as you can climb. Reps like Rica or Verad can help a lot. Mid/late game players can get 5 extra copies of the HoH monster using almighty scroll pieces after each floor at the small cost of 2000 guild points for each extra monster.
- Most nat 5*s are PvP exclusive and should be set aside in storage till you make some progress on PvE. Some exceptions are CC units like Rica for ToA, cleansers like Anavel for starter R5, and Perna for rifts.
- Dimensional hole energy should be spent as soon as possible, always try to stay under the energy cap (recharge rate: 1 per 2h). 2A Kro first, then Spectra or Raoq.

First, we sincerely apologize for the confusion caused by the September Wallpaper Coupon.
Regarding the monthly Wallpaper Coupons, some regions use an annual calendar format, while others receive monthly wallpaper images along with the coupons.
As such, monthly coupon rewards are configured in advance, and the September 2026 Wallpaper Coupon was originally designed to offer [Water Scroll x3 and Mana Stone +300,000].

Furthermore, to ensure all Summoners receive the same rewards, the September Wallpaper Coupon reward will be updated from [Water Scroll x3 and Mana Stone +300,000] to [Legendary Water Scroll x3 and Mana Stone +300,000].

Summon Ella from Blessing
Turned my double dupe blessing into a double new. Chose Ella for RTA as she seems pretty good right now. Some of the Asia SWC players seem to use her a lot this season. Need to study some drafts to find where she fits. Overally happy it wasnt another dupe.

12th Ld5 if counting dupes. She marks the first collab that I've gotten 2 LD5 from. So happy that i don't have to go through another 1k dry streak.

Discussion Ariana (Light Pudding Princess) isn’t completely useless!
Debatably one of the most underwhelming LD nat5s to date, but is super strong in this siege offense! I use this offense all the time in g3 siege. Very good into any defenses that don’t have resets - Ex. Carcano Lora X , Moore Savannah X, Dark Ciri Diana Eshir. Hope this helps out a bit for those thinking this unit is completely a storage guardian!

I got Water Fern today and the only one I don't have is Water Frieren. I decided to pick her from the free nat5 quest so I can fulfill this achievement. Also, this collab is my first collab where I got an LD5. I love this collab so much. Thank you and good bye Frieren!

Discussion Is she the next big thing?
She has a similar s3 with Dark monkey king pre-buff. Dark monkey king was considered a meme unit cus he cannot land stun consistently despite having an absurd base speed. He was never even used in the CC meta. But then com2us decided to give him a cleanse block, 2 hits with both debuffs activating per hit and a higher chance to land. It is right now the most consistent CC and setup in the game.
Hilda on the other hand seems like she's heading to the same path with her s3 being buffed to 2 hits and higher chance Her S3 altho has self lowering CD, it is not consistent to begin with as it is only a 1x hit 70% chance on a 6 turn cooldown. To put in perspective, Shi hou's S2 on a 3 turn cooldown and self cycling (all or nothing) its a 75% chance and we all know how inconsistent that stun is from our daily rta and from us watching swc.
I'm bringing this up cause so many units now are so over tuned. And it seems like com2us's way of buffing things is making it similar to one unit who is op or lowering or reverting back buffs they previously gave.

I just returned after a decade of not playing, and i must say... I'm enjoying my playthrough right now. I'm playing for about a week now and I don't know what to prioritize.
I'm currently working on fusing the dark ifrit and farming b10 dungeons for runes.
I've been doing the Summoner's Way quests. Currently don't know what to pick on the RGB 5* selector
Can I have some suggestions, please?' What should I build next?

Other Summoner's War Guessing Game #682
How this works is that I will give hints of any kind that point to a certain monster, your goal is to guess who the monster is. How few hints can you get it in (make your guess but make sure you still read them all)? No cheating with the monster box either! The monster will be in its current state as of September 2026.
Yesterday's answer was... Seren, the 2A Dark Harpu
Hint #1: This monster’s awakening bonus is in speed.
Hint #2: This monster can harm an ally with a skill.
Hint #3: This monster can decrease the enemy’s defense.
Hint #4: This monster can reduce an ally’s cooldowns.
Final Hint: This monster can increase its own attack bar.

Rune Why are there no proper rune filters?
How come there is no in-game option to filter runes by set, rank, colour, etc..?
For a game with such a huge amount of stuff. It’s amazing that they never added a decent rune filter.
Pretty much every other gacha game has something like this as standard.
