All the details on the key choice between Helion and Lunara in Aniimo, including what the best option is.
Aniimo has plenty of creatures to collect as you explore the world of Idyll, and, like many other creature-capture titles, the first big decision is choosing between Helion and Lunara.
Aniimo offers a choice of two creatures to begin your journey with, both of which have the potential to be key assets on your team, and, naturally, you may wonder which is the better option.
If you’re on the fence about which to choose, we’ve outlined the best choice and noted the key comparisons between them.
Should You Choose Helion or Lunara in Aniimo?
The choice between Helion or Lunara when starting your journey in Aniimo is a personal one, and ultimately comes down to which you prefer, but of the pair, Lunara is likely your best option.
While both have many similarities, a big difference between the pair is that Lunara is a ranged attacker and can sustain its own HP, whereas Helion is a stronger close-ranged DPS, with significant damage output.
Lunara is the better choice at the start of the game though, as it can fit into a wide array of team compositions, so you’ll have the freedom to shape and evolve your team as you see fit while you progress in the game.
Beware, though, as, as it stands, the choice is final, and there’s currently no way to obtain the starter that you didn’t select, though this could change as the game evolves.
