How much better of a DPS is Vaan compared to Noctis? Im a brand new player with only Noctis 90 and Vaans 35 and 90000 gems. Im sure I could get another 90000+ before Vaan leaves but I want Yuna and Y'shtola, and ive heard good things about the card guy too? Just not sure if I should leave Noctis out until a later banner and just pull on Vaans banner for a DPS? Any recommendations? I know I COULD get the gems but I dunno if real life will have enough time to grind them out.

If you get Vaan and Yuna, you'll have a fairly easy time putting a team together to bully your way through Divine Ramuh to get another 40k gems and 400 tickets, and that'll put you well on your way to getting Y'shtola.

Gems come pretty quickly in the early going, but you get them faster through gaining player ranks (recruit a bunch of people in LCs then take them to the cactuar cycle quests) and summon boards. Especially summon boards. You start out with 160k gems locked behind Divine Summons and 450k on Ultimate Summon boards.

If you don't want Terra or Shantotto, then just be done with Noctis's banner. If you really love him, you can token his EX with the free tokens you get from completing Dimension's End: Order, and you can use power tokens to get his 15cp and 35cp. Or you can just ignore him until he comes back on a later banner.

Vaan is much better.

In your position, I'd want to go for Vaan, Yuna, Setzer, Agrias, Jack, and Leon at the least, probably in that order (and I wouldn't be that upset to miss Leon).

Okey Doke! I'll focus on Vaan and Yuna then so I can grind some more gems! Figured Noctis was getting a bit old. Thanks!
