Re: (Nutaku) Milenium War Aigis (English Version)
Well you got to look at it this way. Not everyone is up to your level yet. Hell I started day one, and have pretty much used the same team(with the expection of Iris, Bellinda, Chydis, Bernice, and soon to be Aria). I'm not even 50CC50 across the board with my primary units yet, and I'm one to the top people along side you in this version. A lot of others regardless if they are not the vocal minority that post on forums and what not still need a little bit of time to get situated.
I'm not sure that's quite true as you have gone well beyond many players by trying to level "all" units, though that may be only specific to female units. I'd wager to say many more are in the same boat as Clavat_k, especially among free players. There simply aren't that many units given outside of events, and no single unit really takes that long to level to a decent level. CC40 is good enough for every map in the game outside of specific challenge maps. Would be curious as to the consensus if more players do have most of their regular units to a level they are satisfied with, than those that don't. We can only guess of course.
A perspective on amount of units leveled since game start. I've got 23 units over level 51, 13 of them are lvl 60 or higher. 13 that are above level 30 (most around 45) and 7 more above 21, many of which were CC'ed but left below lvl 30 after CC, as I wont use them anytime soon. I've not maxed any units (outside of golds) as it takes a good deal more to max them, and currently there is no benefit to doing so. Higher end maps may warrant it, but at that time there will be more farming maps as well which will better enable the leveling higher units.
As to three starring everything, already done that except for 3 maps total. Those three being challenge maps, the last 2, and War of Magic. Of those, even if all my units were at max level, I don't believe it would make much difference, as their mechanics almost call for Awakened abilities due to the abilities themselves, or because of the stats required to pass them.
Think I exaggerate? I'll put it this way, despite my many levels, my units levels and even building units for Dwarfs and Giants 2 (5 rogues specifically), I still loose. I don't just barely loose or miss it by a little (something I'd wager has happened to many on WoM, simply cause priority isn't set for the wolves), I out right get OWNED, as in no chance in hell of even thinking about it. My units may as well be level 20, pre CC, trying to beat Immortal Beast type owned. Watching a fully developed level CC51 HA (female with max affection) get two-three shot, is a bit humbling to say the least. Simply put, we'll need quite a bit more "content" before the current challenge maps get beaten by anyone, me or otherwise. The Devs do love their blockades apparently.
TL : DR - I'd be curious to know if more people are in the same boat as Clavat_k having almost all units at a good enough level to pass any mission map currently in the game, or if many that didn't just recently start are still struggling to level their units. And in the latter case, I would wonder if its cause they lack information like some of the guides that have been posted in this thread (and added to the OP).
Doesn't do any good for me to complain, was just voicing my disappointment is all, as I think the next event will likely be at the same challenge level as this one, meaning many may actually blow through it because of such a gap between events. To each their own of course, and hey if they are enjoying the game, whether event or no, it's all that matters.
The game is more about breakpoints than getting everything to a specific level.
^ Very true. I know all too well on that.
Wow, seems like in the future there'll be lot units I will be wishing for... maybe it's time to save some crystals and say bye to Lyla, Garania, Deine, Liana and Victoria... If I can endure the urge to try and get them
