Squadron Chemistry

When your unit reaches Lv.50, it gets an added special effect in the appearance.

Oh so they're using augmented gear that has glowing effect? Seems cool.

I kinda like that we can modify our Squadrons to our personal preferences a bit.

You want scrips, wait for Scrips Chemistry.
You want 100% sucess rate for Lv40 missions, wait for stats bonis.
You want materia, wait for materia chemistry.

What I wanna try is, to have at least all three stat bonis at 15% or above, while the others can have materia and scrip chemistrys, cause the items will be useful in Stormblood, scrips might be important in 3.5 for new master books, and materia is great too.

The difficult part here, is to get the right conditions. for the main squad.

Nvm, changed my mind.
Here is what I do with my Squadrons (all need to be Lv50 for that):

1. First thing to do in the week: Lv40 mission, sending out Members which chemistries that don't fit my needs, or can be improved. Usage of Mission Affinity is pretty welcome.
2. Lv 20 missions with affinities, changing classes as necessary (those members need to level up to 50 again after that)
3. depending how many days of the week are left, deploying all other open mission with right compositions just to hope for RNG to give some extra cookies.

The boni stats I mentioned above are kinda useless, unless you want that Lv40 items more than any extra rewards. But because of the fact you can only clear one Lv40 missionper week, its not needed at all.
For me, I kinda like to receive materia, Gil, seals, MGP etc. I can adjust the chemistries to my needs, which is probably DoL / DoH materia, scrips and gil

Also, certain conditions are much more useful than others. The two ultimate conditions are "an active member" and "at or above a duty's recommend level". At lv 40 both are active all the time. The "above 50" condition sounds like it can also be be active if the member is at lv 50, but I need confirmation on that. the priority is as follows

1. an Active Suadron member
2. at or above a duty's recommend level
3. Above level 50 (only if it is triggered at lv 50, if not is useless at that point)
4. accompany with different race
5. same class (MAR, ARC and CNJ got the highest stats so you might want to have two of each)
6. different class
3. accompany with same race
7+. conditions like "if 3 are of same race or class" in certain ways it can be useful but only if you are able to recruit certain members

You want to have every race in your Squadron to take advantage of certain Affinitys
