ended up getting stuck as Euden a couple times last night when I joined some eHMS rooms only to find everyone else was ranged too, so it's a good thing I practiced baiting this weekend
...almost got a clear as him too, even though I died near the end, but for whatever reason I decided to take a screenshot and
locked my phone

Which is the easiest, or at least easier HDT weapon to try and work towards first?
I finally got my OG Euden a Inferno Apogee Sword for HMS.
Hes currently at 5,964 might (HP: 2122, Strength: 2367) with Resounding Rendition and Glorious Tempest, and for a dragon Im still using Ifirit until I can unbind a better dragon for him.
I'm not 100% sure that sword's good enough. Well, it looks like it'd be stronger for you than a MUB 5.3 after bane is considered (and still even about the same as a MUB 5.3 would be with Agni/Cerb), so it's
probably ok. But it's weaker than a Chimera, which is weaker than an HD1. So make sure you're playing the best you can to make up for it, haha; you're likely going to be the weakest person on your team from a stats perspective. Honestly the might will likely be a bigger problem, because that's very very low for getting into good eHMS rooms, but I'm guessing you haven't maxed him yet...? It's kind hard to tell without more info on your facilities + augments. (And you won't be using either of those prints, fwiw.)
Anyway, a 0UB HD1 weapon requires 18 high dragon tails and they drop 1-3 at a time from Expert, 3-5 per Expert weekly. So in the absolute worst case where you have weeklies, you get a weapon after 9 clears (9 drops of 1 + 3 weeklies with 3). Best case, you get it in just those 3 weekly clears. Without weeklies, obviously, that's 6-18 clears per weapon/unbind. So we're kinda talking "what's the easiest dragon to get a few clears in", then?
And that sorta depends on your units, so if you share that we can give more specific advice. In general, though - eHMC is probably the easiest to handle with just Void weapons so it would probably be a good fit. eHBH
should be similar given the Void bane buff to 30%, but I can't really speak to how well that goes; guessing it's fine, but you might as well do Mercury first to get a 0UB HD1 if you can help it, since HBH can get pretty dangerous if you let it get near the end. eHMS has the harshest dps requirements of that cycle, and previously required MUB 5.3 (don't do this) at worst if you didn't have an HD1; your Void
might be fine since it's been buffed, but worst case you can go get a Chimera weapon if you really want to start there. I think I'd suggest eHMS or eHMC first as a result; they're also mechanically easier than the others so they're probably easier to clear more when you're just starting ont hem?
Meanwhile, eHJP needs an HD1, so you'll
have to tackle eHZD first for that cycle. Thankfully, eHZD is not much worse than Standard, and assuming you can get the early break you need, you will probably have to worry more about surviving than timing out even with an all Void room. I found both of them to be relatively easy to farm in pubs once I had an HD1, but getting to that point can be a little frustrating.
