Character Card Help

So I Have 19 Characters, 18 have "S" Grade cards and one has "SS". I want to know the best way to maximize the usage of my character cards and the sets.

[b]Warrior[/b]
Demon Slayer = +3% Abnormal Status Resistance
Demon Avenger = +3% Boss Damage
Hayato = +6% Critical
Kaiser = +40 STR
Mihile = 4% Weapon DEF
Zero = Increases EXP obtained by 8%

[b]Bowman[/b]
Mercedes = -4% Skill Cooldown

[b]Pirates[/b]
Angelic Buster = +40 DEX
Jett = +8% Summon Creatures Duration
Cannon Master = -4% Death EXP lost
Thunder Breaker = 4 additional damage per character level
Xenon = +20 all stats [Can be used for either Pirate or Thief]
Shade = Minimum Critical rate +3%, Maximum Critical rate +3%

[b]Magician[/b]
Evan = 70% chance to recover 8% MP for every attack
Luminous = +40 INT
Kanna = +3% Boss Damage
Beast Tamer = Monster Defence Ignored 6%

[b]Thief[/b]
Xenon = +20 All Stats [Can be used for either Pirate or Thief]
Dual Blader = 4% Avoidability
Phantom = +3% Meso Gain

[b]Sets[/b]
3 Warrior Cards = +8% Max HP to Damage
3 Magician Cards = +8% Max MP to Damage
3 Bowman Cards = +3% Final Attack Damage
3 Thief Cards = +3% Max Critical Damage
3 Pirate Cards = +6% Ignore DEF
3 Explorer/Cygnus/Hero/Resistance Cards = +7All Stats

From this information, What character cards can be used to get the most benefit from the 3 sets available? I Don't stick to a specific class after 165 as I get bored by then.

You only really got 10 cards that are worth using imo.

I would go for:
Demon Slayer/Demon Avenger/Kaiser (Can switch DS or DA out for Zero when grinding.)
Angelic Buster/Shade/Xenon
Kanna/Beast Tamer/Hayato

The HP/MP to damage things calculates your clean HP/MP, without considering any + or +%. It then takes the % you'll get from that and will add that in the final damage per line of damage you do. The increase to damage is so minimal I wouldn't specially use Evan for it to get the mage set.
Status resistance% and boss% always come in handy, the +stats from the other chars are very nice as well. Hayato and Shade should give you +9% min crit and +3% max crit damage total. Beast Tamer for the extra PDR

[quote=cameron0]Thanks for the input guys! So I have thus gone with (so far)
Set 1: Cannonner, Shade, Thunder Breaker
This gives -4% EXP loss at death, 4 additional damage per level, +3% Min/Max Critical Damage and 6% PDR from Set

Set 2: Hayato, Demon Avenger, Zero
This gives +6% Min Critical Damage, 3% Boss damage, 8% extra EXP and 8% of Max HP added as additional damage

Set 3: Kanna, Beast Tamer, Evan
This gives 3% Boss damage, 6% PDR, 70% chance to recover 8% Max MP each attack and 8% of Max HP is added as additional damage

Opinions?[/quote]

So -4% exp loss at death isn't very useful. It's not an absolute value. So normally you lose -10%, it's NOT 10%-4% = 6%. Its 4% of 10%, so you still lose 9.6%.

[quote=cameron0]If Thunder Breaker is a useless card, the only other character card I can use is Xenon. Would that be better?
What do you think of my current character card set above?[/quote]

I'm just going to go off the basis that you're maining Xenon because that's your BasilMarket profile char. Because remember, there are better usage of your character card DEPENDING what character you're playing.
Yes, Xenon is heavily needed because the +20 str/dex/luk helps HEAVILY and it fulfils your pirate set too so you get the 6% PDR which is always good.

Set 1:
Kaiser, Zero, Hayato,
Or if you tend to boss more often, than switch out Zero with Kaiser since I'm going to assume you won't need the extra exp% gain

Set 2:
Angelic Buster, Xenon, Shade

Set 3:
Kanna, Beast Tamer, Evan

[quote=Kaneusta]Thunder Breaker is a useless card, don't include him. It's basically +4 damage per CARD level (B,A,S,SS)

Anyways, it really depends on who you main. If you main a Xenon, having Kaiser/Xenon card in is a must, if you main an Evan- they aren't needed unless for the set effect.
What class are you maining?

Kanna, Shade, Zero, Hayato, Beast Tamer, Demon Avenger should be necessary no matter what class you choose though, I don't know how well the MP recover thing for Evan is.[/quote]

[quote=cris1000]I have almost the same set except no Evan, you probably want kaiser, hayato and demon avenger in 1 set, kanna beast tamer and evan i guess for the 2nd set, and xenon ab shade for the 3rd one.[/quote]

[quote=leopard16]Set 1: Demon Slayer, Demon Avenger, Hayato/Zero (Warrior set)
Set 2: Cannon, Shade, Thunder Breaker (Pirate set)
Set 3: Kanna, BT, Luminous (Magician set)
Set 4: Merc, Xenon, Hayato/Zero (Random)

I forgot how many sets there are but the first 3 are your priorities.[/quote]

[quote=MrMoogle]Personally, I'd do: deck1: Zero, DA, Hayato, Deck2: Shade, Xenon, AB, Deck3: Kanna, Beast Tamer, Kaiser

That gives: +8% exp, +6% boss, 6% crit, 3% min/max crit, 60str,60dex, 20 luk, 20int? (does Xenon do int too?), IED 6% x2, which is about 11% ied, 8% hp as damage.[/quote]
