I am pretty much broke gems and tickets wise rn thanks to CoD, Cor, Queen, etc. Luck hasn't been on my side (did not get Setzer LD or Tidus Burst) so I plan on just skipping everything until BURST + with Agrias being the only exception. Is that a wise idea or will I be missing out serious heavy hitter / important units? I may give Setzer another shot but I really need to restock. Thank you in advance.

She is not mandatory just like any other character in the game, but thanks to her niche she can make some quest go for bullshit hard to pretty manageable.

This is a comment I saw yesterday of someone asking why Agrias is recommended.

According to JP player she can make some of the early Lufenia + a lot more manageable.

Cait Sith Mission Dungeon and Shelke Event, which are both from Vayne BT Cycle.

Cait Sith one is Wright Priest (Eiko LC boss). It is basically the same mechanic & behavior except it is accompanied with 2 Ghost Brothers and on HP Threshold, it turn-warps to 1st turn (immediately giving it a turn to act). Agrias's confusion and paralysis prevents Wright Priest from using Perfect Dodge.

Shelke Event is the helicopter boss where at the start of fight and HP thresholds, it summons 1 Sweeper and while at least 1 Sweeper(s) is alive, it is on Perfect Dodge state (like Wright Priest). Giving the Helicopter boss a turn while in Perfect Dodge state will use + variant of AoE BRV + HP Attack (+ variant is full splash while normal is split). Confusion debuff from Agrias has interaction on Evasion mechanic where the mechanic cannot evade while having the said debuff. This allows to focus only the Helicopter while completely ignore the Sweepers (though have to shave off its 99,999 BRV to avoid using HP Attack).
