[D Des]

Got a bit lucky and pulled event Maruoka, need feedback whether to raise her or not since I got lv 99 Enma for talisman.
Or should I waste EXP event item on Kaerigumo instead?? As both doesn't strike as universally useful.

[Folseus]

Both of their tokens seem really good. Judging by how the enemies deal damage in the event map, Maruoka's seems be able to splash really well, and Kaerigumo's looks like it could be a very consistent slow.
