Building around an AAA monster

I wanted some advice and info on the form I currently use as my main/defensive team and how I should go about tweaking it like which skills would best benefit it and should I stay with the species combo or mix since a covert down and brute down max debuff would probably screw this form completely up?

The current formation is what I have in my signature and are all maxed in terms of lvl, Elite Dragonborn+(8 ), Vaca+, Cybele, Elven Heroine+(6), and Dahlia+(5). Formation stats are ATK: 58967, DEF: 60328, HP: 71064 before buffs. (Also I know the skills are pretty low lvled, working on stacking stuff for them atm)

With the IPD and health up from Dragonborn and Dahlia, Cybele can take some hefty damage and still manage to bring down a few monsters on her own but it seems this form lacks any damage besides Cybele and Vaca. One thing I was wondering about is if I should keep Dahlia for her health up skill or replace her with Star Rhea (I think that's her name and she has DEA) or just keep her and replace Elocutionist Vaca with Star Rhea and try to also obtain Blade Emperor and switch him with Elite Dragonborn?

The only other thing I was wondering about is if I should continue to use Elven Heroine for her agility up or if I should get rid of her all together for something that can actually do and take damage?

Anyways I appreciate all advice and critiques and please by all means give me any suggestions you may have

Get rid fo the B+ and get lindwurm for agility. You can get one maxed on skill for under 40 ep. (probably under 30 on the forum).

He's using the b+ for agility i presume and the brute combo

Yes, get rid of her.

@Xcalibre- What Boomy said, the formation is all brutes though I'm not sure if I should keep agility in the form or opt out for another skill and stronger brute. I can kill pretty much any A+ formation I come across since Cybele will one shot any of them even when debuffed heavily in attack and getting the first move means I can at least take out 2 or even 3 of them before they can retaliate. With as much defense as I have got going on, taking out Vaca and Cybele is pretty tough, even against some strong AA I've seen her take no more than 12k damage and she has more than 36k hp so she can tank some serious blows.

@ryesteve- Hmm I was thinking that but I wanted to make sure. You have any suggestions that would be a good replacement for the agility skill that a high bp or rank brute would have? In the final build I will definitely have Blade Emperor but I have heard of another strong brute with 39bp though she's A+ she has DEA like Star Rhea, which would be better to have?

Also thanks for the input man

If you could get an eifu and skill max it, thatd be a good addition

Missed the species combo!

@ryesteve- Cool, what skill she has and bp?


@Xcalibre- It's alright, I wonder if anyone else has a formation similar to this with Cybele?

If I am the one who building the formation, I would go different direction. Rather than using brute combo, I would just go 4 AA+ with Cybele. Following AA+ for convert are very cheap so no need to use $ either.

dru+ (ipd) - under 10ep
leech+(ipa) - ?
vaccum+(health) - around 10ep
death blate+(dea) - around 15ep

Hmm that might be a good way to go till they release more AA covert brutes with the skills I need and I do have Vaccum already though he's not evolved yet. I got a few other covert AA cards but the problem is getting them evolved at the moment.
