What do people usually use for GZL subs? Would somebody mind looking at my PADHerder and pointing me to the things I should be working on to sub him? I'm beginning to powerlevel him and Athena, so their team should be available in three weeks or so, or sooner if I can get a truckload of Tamadras from somewhere other than Tamadra Village.
My GZL team looks thusly:
GZL/Ecchi(switch with something wood or some such if you don't need/can't use the delay)/Perseus/CuChu/Freyja(Who I realize you do not have, though she's more a placeholder)/[Athena].
Using an Athena for the friend leader helps raise the HP from 'wet paper' to 'low but not ENTIRELY worthless', and also ensures at least most of the team gets boosted even if you're at high HP so you're not ENTIRELY screwed if you heal over/get healed over the 80%.
Sadly, while I want to endorse Michael here, if you're wanting to use Athena(like in my example) he'll convert your light ammo away which is quite sad given how Athena hits like a freaking bullet train if she gets to do her 2-prong thing, just like GZL does. Of course, if you're going double-GZL he'd be able to swap for Perseus if you want different orbs to be changed and/or want light damage.
Thumbelina might see some situational use since she's an Attacker(can be boosted by GZL's active), carries the rare skillbind resist, provides hearts for CuChu to break, and also has a SB and a 2-prong, though I don't have one to test the waters on that one's effectiveness. Her HP is abysmal though, and her high-ish Rcv could very well be a detriment.
