== Eidos Scouting ==
Eidoi are generally obtained through a dedicated scout banner. It uses the same pull currency as the character scouting.
Duplicate Eidos pulls are converted into Ether which is used in the [[Ether Exchange Shop]].
For the pool of scoutable Eidoi, see [[:Category:Standard_Eidos_Scouting]]
==== Should You Pull? ====
Generally, content difficulty-wise, most units are pretty capable of clearing content without the need of Eidoi. So the biggest draw of the banner is to access more stills exclusive to the system.
Since it's impact is not necessary to clear content, and competes with character pull currency, it is not recommended to go all in.
At the very least, do enough pulls in order for your party to be fully slotted with Eidoi, even in most cases it is simply an HP bump.
