Looking for some team help and advice

Hey guys. I’m pretty new to the game. Been playing for about two months. I think I may have messed up a bit focusing too much on leveling servants and neglecting their skills. I feel like I’m having trouble putting together good teams for the hard content and I don’t think I should be as I have a good variety of servants and CEs (I’m not F2P but I think I’ve had amazing luck as I got Jeanne, Altria, Florence, Kintoki, Shuten all with 1 ten x’s summon each and got 4 golds in one pull once)
I was hoping to get some advice on the best comps for different types of teams with what I have (A/B/Q/Supp). I have most of the standard 3* and below servants. These are my 5&4 *s:
Sabers: Altria 90 (6/4/2)
Rama 50 (2/2/-)
Siegfried 50 (3/2/1)
Eon 34 (3/-/-)
Archers: Orion 80 (5/2/2)
Arjuna 58 (2/1/-)
Atalante 1 (1/-/-)
Lancers: Bathory 70 (4/4/2)
Cu is only other good one at 40 (2/2/-)
Riders: Anne & Mary 60 (2/2/-)
Martha 60 (4/2)
Casters: Dress of Heaven 80 (2/2/2)
Helena 60 (4/2/-)
Assassins: Shuten Douji 80 (2/2/1)
Hassan 100 P is lvl 80 (8/4/2) only AS I had for awhile
Beserkers: Florence 80 (1/1/2)
Kintoki 70 (1/1/-)
Tamamo Cat 50 (4/1/-)
Heracles 25 (1/-/-)
Lancelot 24 (1/-/-)
Beowulf 1 (1/-/-)
Avenger Jeanne 70 (1/1/-)
And Mash is at 60 (7/7/2)

I was really hoping to get your advice about the best way to build the different teams with what I have and some honest feedback on who I may be neglecting and over leveling. I definitely feel like I’m lacking good support servants but maybe I’m missing them right in front of me or I am neglecting some 2 or 3 *s who could really help. Any advice would be really appreciated! Thanks a lot!! **I’m even struggling with the 2BP raid and I doubt I should be...

You have some solid servants, especially towards doing damage. Looking at your servants and seeing their levels and skills + how many servants you have in the same category I can see why you are struggling.

Simply use this formula works in most things in this game, take the 2BP raid for example.

Formula is when creating a team to have one damage dealer servant, a support and either another damage dealer who is effective e.g. have a lancer because the hands are archer OR have a support and preferably has an AOE NP if not that's fine.

Now luckily for you, you have an abundance of amazing damage dealer servants that can take out pretty much anything i.e Kintoki and Jalter so for your sake I'd make them your leading damage dealer. Just get them up to max LV. Simply as your support have a Waver from your FL. He makes life easy for you trust me. On the other slot it depends on what you want/have/need.

Like ask yourself this if I have another damage dealer will they optimise the team or would they be a detriment and make the entire team suffer. Like as for me I prefer safety over damage. So for me I like to have another support as well to help the team aka Waver or Helena which you have. If you want to have any damage dealer then having someone who has an AOE NP is ideal.

If you want help on making teams around certain card types then that's easy. Say you want to build an Arts team, for me I look at the formula once again. Damage dealer[my servant who is going to abuse their NP] a support and then either a support or damage dealer or a hybrid in both.

So looking at you team who I'd pick would be Shuten/Jalter - Waver or Tamamo Caster - OG Saber or Waver/Helena depending on if you pick Waver/Tamamo in the second slot.

People say Jalter isn't optimum in an Arts team as she is SO much better in a buster crit team but her NP + 2 arts card and her passive in gaining NP every turn makes it hard not to pick her. Tamamo and Waver are obvious choices, Helena as a support is really solid, really like her. OG Saber can be a NP damage dealer but her role as a hybrid is what I like best. Can boost attack, give stars and also has a solid NP

Hopefully I made your life a little easier with this.

Yes, that was definitely VERY helpful. I certainly am not lacking for damage dealers so it was good to get some insight on who the best supports are and that I shouldn’t just be trying to go for a team of all damage dealers. That was a mistake on my part so I’m glad you pointed me towards some good support servants such as Waver/Tamamo caster. I also was definitely over looking Helena as a support too. I didn’t think I had much to work with in my deck so knowing she can be a solid support with a friends list Waver will help. You definitely helped open up some options for me, I really appreciate the advice!

There's a guide here on Gamepress regarding team compositions.

In my experience for playing for six months, I've been fond of Buster smash. I didn't have the need to switch servants during story as I have Heracles and Kintoki plus Waver for defense buff. While it is better to level your available servants, I suggest stick to one consistent team at a time. I only have 11 max leveled servants with skills properly raised. My rule is stick to the team I am comfortable using with, regardless if they will sync or not.

Here is my insight based on what you want to know regarding specific team compositions. Raise Heracles, Nightingale and Kintoki for consistent damage dealers. They fit on Buster teams. With supports like Waver or Mash, they can survive a little longer. If you want to deal more damage, Rama and Jalter is useful for their buster crits. Again, Waver will be your friend along with Hans.

Orion will be your main damage dealer and Helena as support if you want to go Arts team. Orion has a high passive crit damage thus Waver and Hans will synergize with her.

I'm not really sure on Quick teams because my only properly leveled quick servant is Atalante. If you want to go quick route, pair her with Anne and Mary along with your assassins for star generation like Cursed Arm Hassan, though Hundred Face Hassan and Shuten will likely work on arts team due to their NP card.

As for the 2BP raid, your team can be Jalter + Altria + support Waver. If properly leveled along with their skills, Altria may one shot hands due to her NP and Jalter will finish Ibaraki. This can be done with a minimum of two turns.

In terms of leveling the skill of your servants, at least make your main team 4/4/4 if not 6/6/6. I tend to raise my servants skill if they are on support tab so they will be much useful to my friends. Hope this helps.

This will definitely help. The team set up you suggested for the 2BP raid finishes her on the 3rd turn each time, thanks!
I was really going back and forth on which of my damage dealers I wanted to focus on and which type of party they would work best in. I’m glad you pointed out Orion as being a good damage dealer in an Arts team cause I was starting to sour on her a bit but I was cramming her in more of a buster team, so I have been doing her a disservice.
This will definitely help me in the 2BP raid. Reading through a lot of the info in here I saw a lot of people not very high on Alteria saber and I was beginning to think I shouldn’t have been focusing on her. I was definitely going with two high damage single target NP servants in the raid causing me to waste both my NPs on the arms. I’ll be switching over to saber to take care of that now. Thanks a lot for the advice, it was a huge help.

I would like your opinion on two follow up questions if possible. 1st) for leveling up skills is it better to just grind out the best drop zone from this site or is that just to inefficient? From the few events I’ve taken part in these first two months it is certainly easier to get bulk items from them. But waiting for events when I could use the skills now feels like a waste. Just not sure if it’s worth grinding all my AP on low drop odds and burning Quartz to keep at it.
2nd) outside of Merlin who it is clear every one will want, do you have any advice on some of the upcoming banner roll characters that would be worth me focusing my Quartz on? Would like an idea if you guys know some of the upcoming servants who would be the best fit for my team where I am lacking. Can’t afford to focus on them all sadly haha. I missed out on Waver and am at least hoping that I have the luck to randomly draw Tamamo caster one of these times. She’s the only one that jumps out to me but I don’t know enough of the servants that well. Thanks again for the advice!

I hope you can roll for your own Tamamo and Waver at some point, because Tamamo + Waver + Orion is a guaranteed win on 3 BP. There would be a Rashomon rerun next year so it is possible you are more than capable on doing 3 BP consistently. I wish I have my own Altria, because she can be paired well will Jalter. She provides attack boost and crit starts while Jalter boost greatly her attack boost.

1. I tend to dedicate two or three days of farming materials in a week. There are some consistent drops currently available. I have completed every free quest and there's nothing much to do. What I do is I farm 30 AP embers for mana prisms every Monday and Thursday, farm QP every Tuesday and Friday and farm materials on Wednesday, Saturaday and Sunday. Although inefficient somehow, I ran 40 AP training ground two times everyday for some materials. You could also look here on this spreadsheet for material drop rates. It is compiled in one Excel tab. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_SlTjrVRTgHgfS7sRqx4CeJMqlz687HdSlYqiW-JvQA/edit#gid=1639355282

2. Becasue I am fond of buster servants, I suggest roll for Raikou. She is a Berserker dedicated for fast farming due to her AoE NP. She also can cit hard due to her crit star absorption. Any buster crit servants will shine with Merlin, so she is definitely a good pick. Ozymandias is also a buster servant. He is a good boss killer and can offer decent support to all alies. Altria Archer is also self suffecient due to spamming NP, though she shines more if paired with Tamamo for Arts team. Nero Bride can also deal decent damage as well as support for allies can also paired with any servant especially Arts for NP spamming. If you have some extra, go for Scathach for boss killing. In particular order of their summon banner, Scathach - Raikou - Ozymandias - Altria Pendragon - Nero Bride - Merlin.
