How do you choose which skills get to use the limited crystallized lore? As a newbie I thought I would never be able to get a skill to level 10. Then I got a couple of skills there and was excited to plunk down the CL. Now I have over a dozen skills that I could max, but only 10 CL and I hesitate to use any in case I might change my mind later. In fact greater hesitation than who to spend my grails on.
What criteria do you folks use when consuming this scarce resource? Desire for a more powerful effect? The extra turn off cool down? Just because waifu/husbando?
Which skills benefit most from the additional 1 turn cool down?
Eg. Having a 3 turn skill reduced to a 5 turn cool down can be great.
Which skills benefit most from increasing the skill level by 1?
Eg. Some skills have marginal improvements by going from level 9 to 10, while others are more worthwhile.
You can also just max the skills of your favourites.
It is just a case by case scenario...Casters greatly benefit for having their skills maxed, they are there to provide support so you want the CD to be as low as possible.
Servants that have Mana Battery 50% is a must as well since you can np from the get go if you give them a +50% CE.
Mana Burst Skills generally is recommended to max level as well if a servant have them.
then there are skills that are a waste of resources to invest into, like guts, since your servant won't live long enough to use it a second time. Instinct skills are also a waste of lore/resource. Same for other skills with underwhelming effects that provide a little healing and debuff resistances...
before doing it just think "would i benefit if this skill had lower CD?"
if not leaving it at lvl 6 it is fine most of the times , otherwise take it to 10.
The skill is the most useful, the one that lets then do their job best. If they have a damage burst "press to win" skill or a skill that I'll want to use often in long fights, like charisma or healing thats the one I'll be maxing.
Things like Drake, Tesla, Lanceturia and Ishtars 50% NP skills are no brainers, Lancer Liz's sadistic charisma and Neros imperial privilege are other skills I deem worth the investment. Mash and Waver are in my opinion the best servants to max all skills for, besides your waifu.
I have only used 1 Crystallized lore and it was on Mash’s targetable invincibility.
My criteria is that it has to be a character I see as a part of my main team, and an ability I see as indispensable.
Look those servant you used the most and those you like the most and make a ranking of them.
The most used Servants and skills are the priority for me such as Mash andTamamo. Then the skills that benefit most from having one less turn of cooldown.
