Not really sure what I should focus on right now, I got to Sabaody archipelago but I've been spending most of my time working through coliseum & raids. Should I be spending a bit more time doing the story? I feel like I won't be prepping enough for TM/kizuna content, though it is free stamina?

Edit: for reference, here's my box sans random rare recruits Box https://imgur.com/a/lQ4ckju

Do story at your leisure, there’s no rush for it because there isn’t any updates for the known future. Continue with colo and raid, story units are hardly ever boosted for tm or kizuna and even when they are,there are always better options. Also when sharing your box include the rare recruits even if they seem bad (they may not be bad at all), they’re essential to teambuilding unless you’re trying to do some f2p only thing.

Sounds good, I didn't include the other rare recruits as there was quite a lot haha. I'm trying to stay f2p as much as possible though I did roll quite a bit during the "rookie" sugo

[u/GoldFishPony → u/xAveImpx]

Yeah there may be a lot but a good portion of them are good and useful, only the super old ones are likely to be useless. Story mode is good for gems and after that it’s just kinda there, as almost every story unit is functionally useless (story vivi has a great support but she hates to drop, and the last like 2 islands have ok units to use). For the moment I might recommend not spending gems and saving them, I have no idea of your stamina but ideally you won’t be gemming to refill that until you have like 120 stamina or so so you can get at least 2 copies of a unit per full stamina bar and it seems like you’re doing well with box space, just increase it as you constantly run out of space more so you’re good for now. I don’t know which sugo to save up for specifically, the Luffy/Zoro and sobamask one is soon and has a 2.5x legend rate but the other stuff doesn’t seem exactly great, I don’t know anything of the other upcoming sugos though so I don’t really know exactly how good this one will be.

[u/xAveImpx → u/GoldFishPony]

That's fair, I'm at 113 stam right now, the last bit of gems i spent were to unlock the Zunesha & Hoe ship. I'm not sure right now about unlocking Germa 66 or Megalo though I guess I've got 3 weeks before they disappear again.

[u/GoldFishPony → u/xAveImpx]

I wouldn’t feel the need to rush those 2, I don’t know of any time they’ve been unreplaceable in my experience, in fact I’ve found megalo can generally be switched out for moby dick most of the time
