Choice File

The Choice File selection menu. Remember that you can scroll down!

A Choice File is a special summoning resource that lets the user choose a 5★ demon (+ their archetype/color) from a specific lineup, which may include both fusible and non-fusible demons.

Choice Files are generally given out through events or the Shop, but some are available permanently, such as the 2nd anniversary choice file in Comeback Missions.

Anniversary Files[edit]

Free files containing fusibles[edit]

Only 2nd anniv and Special (2.5 anniv) choice files offer standard fusibles.

"X" means the demon is available to choose, while "-" means it is not available.

Deciding what to summon[edit]

Being able to choose a unit is extremely valuable in a Gacha game, so you should be very careful about what you select from a Choice File.

Some guidelines:

  • If at all possible, try to AVOID choosing a fusible demon. You could just farm Magnetite and make them later - the choice is better spent on a non-fusible demon that may be difficult to get otherwise.
  • Choosing a good, non-fusible demon that you don't already have should be the highest priority.
    • Rather than picking them already in their ideal color, pick them in a color that has a good gacha skill. You can then shift the color to the one you actually want, while keeping the good gacha skill.
  • If none of the non-fusibles catch your interest, or if you just already have all of them, then pick a duplicate that can help with Spirit Merge paneling. Make sure that the demon you choose actually has good panels, though.
    • If going this route, pick a color that has a good gacha skill, and use a Blank Genome on the gacha skill before spiritizing the demon. This gets you more value from your summon.
  • If you're actively summoning on a banner, wait until AFTER you're done there, just in case you pull something that you would've otherwise selected from the choice file. This then lets you pick something else from your choice file.

Once you've decided who you want, check the Tier List and Non-Banner Demon Tier List for which archetype colors perform best.

Common case: Special Choice File (2.5 Anniv)[edit]

Special choice file (2.5 anniv)

This file is the one most-frequently given-out through events, so it's common for people to make decisions based on this one.

Demons

Good demons to pick:

  • Priority 1: Daisoujou - Acts as a Cleric (ailment-immune cleanser), which is a very important role. Pick him in Teal Teal (to harvest Void Dark Zones for your Aura Gate team 2), then shift him to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 2: Yoshitsune - Good Phys Phys attacker for PvE. Pick Red Red or Yellow Yellow , then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 3: Alice - Good Dark Dark mage that can also inflict Mortal. Pick Teal Teal , then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 4: Mot - Good support for Democalypse. Pick Yellow Yellow , then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 5: Huang Di - Not a good demon, but can be turned into a strong sword for Tokyo Abyss or Battle Tower. Pick Red Red or Yellow Yellow , harvest the skill, then turn him into a sword.
  • Priority 6: Metatron - Tanky DPS with strong support effects, such as Repel Pierce and Revive Ban. He's fusible, but is very expensive, so getting him here can be useful as a shortcut. Pick Yellow Yellow or Purple Purple , then shift to Red Red or Teal Teal .
  • Priority 7: Michael - DPS with lots of support effects, such as Light attribute affinity down, buffs and debuffs for the team, healing, Evade Mortal, and Bulwarks. If paneled, he also offers speed and an extra Press Turn. He's fusible, like Metatron, but is cheaper (5+5 instead of 5+Vishnu). Pick Teal Teal .

Skills

If you're mainly looking for good gacha skills:

2nd Anniv. Choice File[edit]

2nd anniv choice file

Similar to the 2.5 file, but you CANNOT pick the following demons from this file:

The priorities therefore change slightly:

  • Priority 1: Red Red or Yellow Yellow Yoshitsune, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 2: Teal Teal Alice, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 3: Red Red or Yellow Yellow Huang Di, to make into a sword.
  • Priority 4: Yellow Yellow or Purple Purple Metatron, then shift to Red Red or Teal Teal .
  • Priority 5: Teal Teal Michael.

3rd Anniv. Choice File[edit]

3rd anniv choice file

Similar logic to the 2.5 file, with the following notable additions:

Demons

Good demons to pick:

  • Priority 1: Frost Ace - Strong Physical Ice Ice DPS that grants team-wide Might. Very useful for Avarice 14, and in other content when paired with other Physical attackers. Pick Red Red , then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 2: Masakado - Strong slow DPS that can inflict Mortal 3 times per battle. Pick any color (depends on which auto-buff you want), then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 3: Masakado for his sword. This sword can inflict Mortal 3 times per battle, and is good in Tokyo Abyss and Battle Tower. If you do this, then make sure to harvest his skill before turning him into a sword!

Skills

Notable gacha skills:

Update Choice File[edit]

Update choice file

Compared to the 3rd anniv file, Flauros is now available.

  • Flauros is good for Phys Phys Democalypse, but probably isn't worth picking, since the file has several more-important options.

Notable gacha skills:

5th Anniv Special Choice File, and Update Choice File 2[edit]

5th anniv special choice file

Demons

Compared to the Update Choice File, this adds Raphael, Gabriel, and Uriel.

Good demons to pick:

  • Priority 1: Red Red Frost Ace, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 2: Raphael - Acts as a Cleric, and is especially useful for Sloth 14. Can also work in both Force Force and Light Light Democalypse. Pick Red Red , then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 3: Uriel - Provides buffs and debuffs when running a 3-angel team. Can also work in both Fire Fire and Light Light Democalypse. Pick Red Red or Yellow Yellow , then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 4: Gabriel - Does good DPS, especially in a 3-angel team. Can also work in both Elec Elec and Light Light Democalypse. Pick Red Red , then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 5: Masakado - any color, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 6: Masakado for his sword.

Notes:

  • The three angels here are core to the Archangels team archetype, so there's incentive to get all three if possible.
  • For PvP, archangel teams are highly dependent on Metatron M to perform well.

5.5th Anniv Special Choice File[edit]

5.5th anniv special choice file

Demons

Compared to the 3rd anniv Choice File, this adds Tenmas: Asura Lord, Mahakala, Indrajit, Yama, and Asura.

This is the ONLY free choice file that offers Tenmas, so you should probably pick one of them.

Good demons to pick:

  • Priority 1: Asura - Vital for farming Deceit 14, as he can trivialize the first wave if he's Teal Teal . Pick in any non-Teal color (depends on the skill you want), then shift to Teal Teal .
    • Alternatively, can be turned into armaments that hard-counter Physical teams: each reduces the enemy's crit rate by -60%, and the shield also counters with an AoE and buff removal when the MC is hit by a Physical attack. Get the shield first, then the sword.
  • Priority 2: Indrajit - Good Elec Elec DPS. Casts Repel Almighty Magic upon the party scoring a kill, which can counter The 10th Angel in PvP. Pick Red Red or Yellow Yellow , then shift to Purple Purple .
    • Alternatively, can be turned into a shield that also casts Repel Almighty Magic, but only when the MC scores a kill.
  • Priority 3: Asura Lord - Good DPS and buffer for Phys Phys Democalypse prelim. Also helpful for challenge fights that require using Almighty Almighty. Pick Red Red or Yellow Yellow , then shift to Red Red (for Democalypse) or Purple Purple (for using his Almighty skill).
  • Priority 4: Mahakala - Good generalist DPS for Democalypse. Especially good for Fire Fire DPS. Pick any color, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 5: Yama - Good generalist buffer for Democalypse prelim, and a good Dark Dark DPS. Pick Red Red , then shift to Purple Purple .

Skills

Notable gacha skills:

6th anniv special choice file

Demons

Compared to the 3rd anniv Choice File, this adds: Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Vairocana, Atavaka, Hecate, Master Therion, and Masakado A.

Good demons to pick:

  • Priority 5: Red Red Frost Ace, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 1: Red Red Raphael, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 2: Masakado A - Helpful for PvE, Democalypse, Hell's Park Underside, and he isn't offered on most choice files. Pick Yellow Yellow or Purple Purple , but shifting his color afterwards isn't very important.
  • Priority 3: Red Red or Yellow Yellow Uriel, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 4: Red Red Gabriel, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 6: Masakado - any color, then shift to Purple Purple .
  • Priority 7: Masakado for his sword.
  • Priority 8: Masakado A for his shield, which gives 1 extra press turn when you go first.
