What is best?
Every character is different, but there are some general rules
Attack auras are all that matters, even from refined versions, as long as you can trigger them.
Freya sphere for characters with HP based damage, limited to just Porom & Lenna
Other spheres are useless
ATK Aura D spheres
These are generally the only D spheres you ever need. ATK aura is best, just make sure your character can reliably trigger it!
mBRV, iBRV, & HP Aura D spheres
Freya sphere is the "best" D sphere for characters that deal damage based on their or the party's HP stat, such as Porom and Lenna. The rest are relative junk.
