Choosing your first UR unit in SD Gundam G Generation Eternal is one of the most important decisions you’ll make as a new player. Since this game allows you to reroll your pulls during the beginner banner, it’s worth taking the time to get a strong unit that can carry you through the early and mid-game. This guide breaks down the top UR units in the reroll banner and which ones are worth keeping based on terrain coverage, weapon range, and overall utility.
Top UR Attackers You Should Prioritize
1. Exia
- Terrain Coverage: Space, atmosphere, ground, underwater – excellent range.
- Combat Style: Close-range focused with multiple melee weapons.
- Why Choose Exia? Covers almost all terrain types, making it versatile across missions. However, it’s heavily melee-focused, which can be a drawback in wide-area maps.
2. Sazabi
- Terrain Coverage: Poor (only two and a half terrains).
- Combat Style: Excellent ranged attacks with wide weapon range (1–5 tiles).
- Why Choose Sazabi? Despite the limited terrain use, its powerful long-range weapons make it a reliable attacker. A solid pick if you don’t mind being selective with mission types.
3. Crossbone X1 (Custom)
- Terrain Coverage: About 3.5 terrains.
- Combat Style: Balanced with critical damage boosts.
- Why Choose Crossbone? Good stats and a versatile weapon set. It’s a great third option if you can’t get Exia or Sazabi.
4. Unicorn (Destroy Mode)
- Terrain Coverage: Decent across multiple environments.
- Combat Style: Balanced mix of beam weapons and buffs.
- Why Choose Unicorn? Not as flashy as Exia or Sazabi, but consistent. Includes solid passive skills like increased attack and damage reduction.
Best Support-Type UR Units
Supporters don’t need to be your first UR, but if you happen to get a good one, here are solid picks:
1. Freedom Gundam
- Strengths: Excellent support skills including “Full Burst” for high team-wide impact.
- Why Pick Freedom? It’s one of the few support units that can deal solid damage while also helping the team.
2. Nu Gundam
- Strengths: Fin Funnel barrier, special damage boost debuffs for enemies.
- Why Pick Nu Gundam? Great for setting up big damage plays by weakening opponents.
3. Phoenix
- Strengths: Covers all terrains and regenerates energy.
- Why Pick Phoenix? Highly versatile support with useful sustain mechanics.
What About Defender Units?
Defenders in the reroll pool aren’t great.
- Gundam (original) lacks terrain coverage.
- Torpedo-type units have niche uses but are not ideal as your first pick.
Unless you’re desperate, skip picking a defender as your main UR—better ones will appear later.
UR Units to Avoid as Your First Pick
1. EZ8
- Why Skip? Poor terrain compatibility, restricted movement, and generally underwhelming.
2. Striker Custom
- Why Skip? Entirely melee-focused with weak range coverage. Lack of flexibility makes it harder to use in varied missions.
Your first UR unit in SD Gundam G Generation Eternal sets the tone for your early game. Prioritize versatile and terrain-flexible attackers like Exia or Sazabi, and support units like Freedom Gundam if they appear alongside your main attacker. Don’t rush into spending premium currency too soon—more powerful banners are likely on the way. Take advantage of the reroll system, be patient, and aim for a strong setup that will carry you far into the game. Happy pulling, and good luck building your Gundam dream team.
