The results of Choose Your Legends are in: the winners are Alfonse, Bernadetta, Felix, and female Robin. What weapon and movement types do you think they'll have? What would you want them to have?
We're also getting Lumera soon, and a new type of Hero in Emblem Heroes, starting with Emblem Marth. You can Engage with these new Heroes to boost the capabilities of your Specials, and get extra stats that way too.
Will you summon for Lumera or Emblem Marth? Which Emblems are you looking forward to seeing? Which Emblem effects are you NOT looking forward to seeing?

>CYLWinners
>dreams
I wouldn't mind Alfonse in either summoner's robes, or wearing his dads armor but using his mom's tome. He is more fitting as a mage anyways. Armored mage would be nice
>Expectations
He's dressed as his dad, or bruno, and is a cav using their weapon.
>will you summon for Lumera or MArth
Not for Lumera, but maybe for marth. Emblems are designed like seals so you get a lot of value in just rolling for one of them.
>Which Emblem effects are you not looking forward to seeing
All of them. It's just beyond jarring to see IS release a brand new unit type 4-6 months after they released the last one, and there is a good chance we have ANOTHER in the fall with Reginn.
IS needs to slow down.
i have not played in more than 5 years and now skill descriptions look like modern yugioh cards
it's okay you don't need to read any of it
>if enemy dps initiates, you die
>if you initiate on enemy tank, you die
easy peasy
this but unironically
Is it wrong, though
Enemy phase is dead now
Will Emblem Heroes be blessable?
I'll summon for Marth, I would love a 2 CD Glacies, but the one I'm looking forward to is Ike. Love that man. Please God don't let Emblem Corrin have a Vein effect
>Please God don't let Emblem Corrin have a Vein effect
She's gonna have every Vein effect, lol
Like maybe they'll actually have it change depending on the movement type, I think that's how it actually worked originally anyway
id like them to include her draconic hex / gravity effect and the blocking chain attack dmg somehow
God damn it. I'm gonna cry
Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of combat, if unit's HP ≥ 25%, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def/Res-5 on foe, neutralizes effects that guarantee foe's follow-up attacks and effects that prevent unit's follow-up attacks, and reduces damage from foe's first attack during combat by 30% (for standard attacks, "first attack" means only the first strike; for effects that grant "unit attacks twice," it means the first and second strikes). If unit initiates combat, applies [Divine Vein (Flame)]on 5 spaces in a line centered on foe's space (oriented left to right based on the direction unit is facing) for 1 turn after combat. If unit ends turn without combat, applies [Divine Vein (Stone)] to unit's space and spaces within 2 spaces of unit for 1 turn. If a movement Assist skill (like Reposition, Shove, Pivot, etc.) is used by unit or targets unit, applies [Divine Vein (Green)] to unit's space and spaces within 2 spaces of unit for 1 turn. If a Rally Assist skill is used by unit or targets unit, applies [Divine Vein (Haze)] on target's space and on each space within 2 spaces of target's space for 1 turn. If foe's Range = 2, calculates damage using the lower of foe's Def or Res.
[Divine Vein (Flame)]
Applies the following effects on space: Acts as difficult terrain for foes with Range = 2 (moving over this space costs +1 movement; does not apply to "cannot be slowed by terrain" effects; movement cost cannot exceed unit's allowed movement). At start of enemy phase, deals 7 damage to foe, and also, as combat begins, deals an additional 7 damage to foe (effects that reduce damage "during combat" do not apply; will not reduce foe's HP below 1). (Divine Vein effects do not stack; replaces any existing Divine Vein effect; Divine Vein effects applied simultaneously cancel each other out.)
[Divine Vein (Stone)]
Applies the following effects on space for unit and allies: Grants Def/Res+6 during combat, reduces damage from foe's Specials by 10 during combat (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and reduces damage from area-of-effect Specials by 50% (excluding Røkkr area-of-effect Specials). (Divine Vein effects do not stack; replaces any existing Divine Vein effect; Divine Vein effects applied simultaneously cancel each other out. Does not count as defensive terrain.)
[Divine Vein (Green)]
Applies the following effects on space for foes: Foe cannot warp from this space or into this space (does not affect units with Pass skills or warp effects from structures like camps and fortresses in Rival Domains). Inflicts Special cooldown charge -1 on foe per attack (only highest value applied; does not stack). (Divine Vein effects do not stack; replaces any existing Divine Vein effect; Divine Vein effects applied simultaneously cancel each other out.)
[Divine Vein (Haze)]
Applies the following effects on space: Inflicts Atk/Spd/Def/Res-5 on foe and neutralizes foe's bonuses (from skills like Fortify, Rally, etc.) during combat. (Divine Vein effects do not stack; replaces any existing Divine Vein effect; Divine Vein effects applied simultaneously cancel each other out.)

THE RIDE NEVER ENDS.
The year's only just begun, bucko
Base 51 Spd soon by Spring
Brave Felix will have base 52 Spd
I'm not usually a doomer, but it's beginning to worry me a lot. It feels like powercreep is getting faster than ever. I'm hoping it's just like Last year where January just had a huge bump in powercreep, but then it actually receded relative to them.
These added mechanics and powercreep just feel way more unstable.
Nah I feel you, it does feel like they've ramped up and kicked everything into overdrive within the span of a year, and it's just accelerated faster and faster, stronger and stronger
Like the comparison between Brave Seliph (who I thought was pretty strong) and Tea Time Ayra just a year later, he's so much slower by comparison now, and even Ayra can struggle because she doesn't have DR pierce
Every weapon has DR, NFU, Tempo, huge stat swings, to the point where they may as well say "if you initiate combat, the foe just explodes"
I can't imagine trying to even design a tank around all the shit they give player phase nukes. at this point I think IS can't either because they went too far with sword gods and nukes. The only thing I can think of is making more characters like Alfred that just get 20-30 visable defense for existing, but that can only do so much when we now have characters dealing 15-30 precombat chip damage without an aoe special.
I miss when Berkuts lance was good option for some characters.
The only thing I can think of is making Hardy Fighter 4 that lets defensive Specials activate twice against Brave attacks like Negating Fang II, but more often than not nukes also have quite a bit of DR to help them survive so some piercing is necessary too
To the point where now armours need those new Armoured [whatever] Specials alongside SS4 so that they can still get some DR themselves (and it's the new, better, unpierceable DR basically) while being able to pierce through opposing DR
But there's still no answer to losing 14 to 21 (or against Legendary Camilla, even more!) HP right as combat begins
At least not until they print another Legendary or Mythic that protects you from such effects and it just continues the cycle of
>make a giant problem
>sell the solution
>then another problem comes later on
Just, holy shit
>But there's still no answer to losing 14 to 21 (or against Legendary Camilla, even more!) HP right as combat begins
Invest into those medeus stocks. If he can't now then perhaps his refine in two years will.
Yeah, I'm gonna be honest with you here, the game has hit critical mass. I literally do not think they can salvage it at this point. Every update now has shit that counters the strong shit from the previous update, and shit from the update before that is borderline worthless. Units that were broken a year ago are borderline unusable now.
We have simply gotten to the point where there isn't much higher to go. Tanks have to be able to survive such absurd shit that no unit that isn't the newest giga tank buster has any chance of beating it, so we have units that are designed to be able to kill those absurd tanks.
Reminder that Fomortiis, once considered a very powerful and sturdy tank, cannot tank anything anymore, and was only released a year ago around this time.
He's now on a Hero Fest with other units that were (Alfred aside) also once at the top of their game, but struggle a lot now.
%DR is the biggest mistake ever added into the game. It was fine when it was super rare and only on Brave Ike, Seliph, and Sigurd, but when everyone has it, it becomes too much to bear, especially now that people can stack it and some abilities give a baseline of 50.
before DR, if your units couldn't win against someone of the same range type, you could normally at lease kill/chip them with someone on your team that is the opposite range, even with budget units. Now you have some ranged characters with a shit ton of DR that hardly get scratched by budget melee units and are 100% going to murder your team on enemy phase.
I have a few units like base reginn that can somehow still reliably kill enemies after 3 years but I can't understand how. I pity anyone in whale tiers that has to put up with that stuff every week.
The only bright side is that most pve stuff like abyssal GHB don't have enemies with DR, so budget units can sometimes perform in there. The only issue is inflated stats to compensate, and dealing with the boss who does have an insane amount of bullshit.
The countless buffs are also getting hard to keep track of. the new feature will be helpful.
>%DR is the biggest mistake ever added into the game
I thought it was an entirely reasonable necessary evil when it came to what it was supposed to represent flavorfully: dodging.
The swordmaster type dodge tank unit has traditionally been a fan favorite, and that archetype was not represented in a good way in FEH because they were just shitty infantry units.
The problem with DR really came when it stopped being dodge based and started just being... ubiquitous. Having a max of like 40% DR on your otherwise frail sword autist was fine, the problem was when they started tacking massive amounts of DR to tanks. Once again, a lot of our problems can be directly traced back to Fallen Edelgard, who was the first armor unit to get that kind of absurd unconditional DR. We ended up getting more and more of these armors with massive amounts of DR on top of their already higher stats (which tended to be specialized into being defensive, obviously), to the point where extant units could not really compete, so then we had the start of absurd offensive units who could shit out so much damage that if your tank DIDN'T have some amount of unconditional DR, they were fricking worthless, thus creating the death spiral we now exist in now.
Honestly while it was locked to fast infantry units it was fairly innocuous. It mostly just made that archetype competitive with others, rather than making them particularly strong. The problem was when they started putting DR on units who really had no reason to fricking have it.
a low defense infantry melee getting 30% DR is okay in theory, yes, but the issue is that when you have %DR you chance the game from simple arithmetic a 2nd grader could do to having to figure out how the game actually calculates the DR and then doing 30% of 30%=X and then 30% of x% added to the the defenses and calculating that with WTA. It makes what was supposed to be a much simpler, bite sized version of FE into a requiring much more thought just to calculate if your unit can still do 10 damage to a unit with 5hp. it effectively kills a lot of the strategy portion and planning ahead because the equations become much more complicated. the most you had before was weapon triangle to complicate things. Maybe I'm projecting but it feels like it isn't uncommon to hear people just say "I've stopped trying to figure it out and just use the combat forecast" because there is just too much shit going on.
dodge tanking would have been better as some sort of FU denial or even just "Dodges first attack against against enemy if it is faster, once per turn" kind of thing because at least then you could bait it out with a ranged attack and not have to go pull out a calculator to play the game. It also doesn't help when some newer sword units can get low to mid 30s with defensive stats which is low enough to justify the crazy amount of DR they get IMO.
If DR had just been rare, or couldn't stack in any shape, then it would have been a lot more tolerable IMO, but the way IS handled it feels like the most unhealthy option to the point that perhaps it just should never have been implemented.
God I fricking hate DR.
This is why I haven't cared about new units in a long time, they're just another flavor of overpowered that will get powercrept in a matter of months, sometimes even weeks. My main problem with this game is what an anon in the previous thread mentioned, building new units from scratch has become such a titanic effort that no new player in their right mind would ever attempt to do. Imagine starting the game with, let's say, Lon'qu as your favorite character, and you want to bring him to his maximum potential, you'd need:
>220,000 feathers to +10 him
>3260 Dragonflowers
>3 Tier 4 skills minimum, many of them exclusive to one single unit each
>an Ascended Floret from units that are already getting forgotten by IS
>an Arcane weapon from units that are not available in the regular pool
>an Attuned unit to inherit an X skill
All for him to die in one round to the flavor of the month, and he's a sword, the most cattered weapon type in the game. It has gotten so bad that even story maps and Tempest Trials are becoming really annoying to beat, and even trying to complete the orb missions on Paralogues has become a completely miserable experience because seasonals are the main source of powercreep in this game. Engage units are such a spit on the face and I absolutely detest the idea behind them, how in hell can you tell your entire fanbase with a straight face that you need to +10 a unit exclusively available in Legendary/Mythic banners just to receive a whooping +2 on all stats and an improved special skill? And the worst part is that we haven't even gotten our fourth Attuned hero, and they're already releasing a whole new kind of unit.
To add, I just played Pawns of Loki and Jesus Christ it's almost unplayable even on Intermediate, I don't even want to imagine how horrendous it must be in Advanced.
Oh, PoL Advanced? Winter Dimitri gets his buffs off and literally everyone dies
Honestly owning Mythic Gullveig is how you win Porns of Loki now. As long as she's your highest level hero, you plop down two copies of her and boom, you've deleted six enemies.
I'd be fine.. ""fine"" with the speed being high if they lowered their bulk. Give some kind of trade off for frick's sake
Is Emblem Marth gonna have his own set of maps, or is he gonna have to share with Lumera (so no extra Orbs lol)
Which would then mean any new Mythic or Legendary we get would also have to share with an Emblem Hero
>they share
At least with Lumera it makes sense, but now we're gonna get like, Emblem Celica and an unrelated Mythic or Legendary next, damn
>Potent 4 is inheritable by every melee unit except armors and dragons
Pay up goyim, you ARE going to pull enough Marths to +10 him AND give fodder to all your favorite fast units right?
Seasonal unit summon?
I got another Karla, so I can give Flow N Trace to someone at least
I got Duo Byleth. I already got them on the Christmas Banner so that B-skill can be given to someone.
I got milk.
Winter Edelgard, which is sick. I have three in stock now for fodder
>no colorless orbs
>fricking Seadall
At least I finally have Atk/Res Finish fodder to inherit all of Ophelia's skills to my Sophia.
I got tea time Sigurd on my main account and catria on my alt. I like both so it's okay, but neither are who I was aiming for.
>no green orbs
>pull blue
>fricking catria
I got dupe duo Karla. Oh well, wanted Ivy
Didn't get any reds, ended up with a +spd Anna&Anna. Not bad at all.
Wanted L'Arachel
Got Duo Elise
Which is better than I hoped
Duo Linde
Pretty happy with it
duo shamir. I was going for W!Edel or zelgius
I've got summer tharja
Well
They are probably one of the better 4* units you could have gotten...
Rip all the same. These banners are always a tragedy waiting to strike. I really wish they would stop being such buttholes with them and take the garbage off of them.
Reyna...
On the other hand, i can finally stop rolling colorless (for now) on b8%
That ugly useless b***h Flavia
Gimme
HAGs were inevitable...
At least she has tier 3 clash skill
my 2 options from the circle are green or blue, what should I pick
I'd go with green, might be a Wind Claude
Might not be, but it's worth a shot
thanks, its Heather
I cannot wait for his refine, I'm so happy
What's the best color to summon on for the guaranteed 5* one?
Sweet mother of Divine Codes, I might actually be able to get a Brave Chrom merge before we start getting the new codes (whenever that is)
So one of the 2023 Winter 3H units is winning the vote right? And all 3 of them will be at the top
Went colorless because it seems like it has the least misses
Got a yunaka, so can't complain. Excellent fodder.
This is the first time across the entirety of all of these "guaranteed 5*" type banners which I didn't get a 4* or something that is otherwise completely worthless.
Is potent 4 even good? Speed scores are so cracked these days that you probably aren't hitting that 20 speed difference
>colorless shows up for arena ticket
>Innes
>for the eighth time
I'm gonna break something. Between him and Takumi.
I literally know that feel bro.
I think I'd feather him out of spite rather than merge him.
Is it just me or the Lumera+Marth battle was too easy even in Abyssal?
Had to speed stack more than usual to ORKO Marth but the map was pretty manageable, yeah.
wtf, record that fight pls.
You're in luck, I kept their skills locked and I still remember how I cleared the map.
lol that over kill ending. What was the reasoning for Hana going skillless? Wanted to play on hard mode?
That's how I always clear abyssal maps, I started doing it back when Seiros came out. There was an anon on /vg/ who used to post his unequipped Haar clears and I wanted to emulate that.
It makes things a bit more interesting but not exceedingly difficult, I recommend trying it out. It shouldn't be too hard if you use modern units.
Emblem Marth isn't like rearmed heroes of I fodder his skills I lose him right?
There doesn't appear to be anything that implies otherwise. Pretty sure when you use em you lose em
For my Lon'qu is Potent 4 good or do I keep Spurn 4?
Depends on what you want out of him. Potent is a much more offensive skill, spurn is a more defensive one. If you are worried about his durability, stick with spurn. If you want him to kill shit better, you may wish to consider potent.
Got it. Thank you
Whoo yeah got him on the fifth roll
Cheers brother
...should we tell him?
The Ririna.
I want to cum on Lilina's small breasts while Roy watches
So I'm foddering Brave Sothe to Rearmed Ophelia so she can have Flare, A/R Finish, Mag NFU, Special Spiral and Time's Pulse all at Tier 4. Considering I can now give 5 skills, which ones would be the best to give to Sophia and Lilina? Since they're getting the Arcane Tome, I can only pick four of those five skills for each.
damn this homie got brave Sothe and hes wasting him for fodder?? reported to IS for hacking
It was 3AM and I was sleep deprived, ok? I meant Brave Soren, now answer the question please
50 rolls
2 Hinokas
2 Firs
0 Marths
Can't believe I fell for it, what a fool I was
On the bright side that’s some nice fodder
Finished all those gay quests except for the AR ones
My fingers can finally rest...
1x2=53
but how
Skill Emblem
I cant read that
I'm the number 1 Lilina in SD check her there
oh cool, very based of you. thank you. I will look at that
Did someone tested what happens if you engage a unit and then fodder the engage ring?
so what special do I give lumeria? pavise or just a generic damage dealing skill?
AoE specials are fun.
Game really didn't want to give me Marth lmao (I eventually got one)
I get excited whenever I roll Hestia
I'm moronic, somehow I thought that Marth would give +1 in every stats for each merge but it's literally written that it works like dragonflowers so you only get a +2 in each stats. I can live with not getting a +2
In all fairness the tooltip is written all moronic. I thought it gave +1 in each stat per merge at first too.
Yeah
Each merge = 1 stat of dragonflowers
It's a scam
>precharged armored beacon, but sturdy surge became ineffective
man, i really hope the next attuned skill is something useful to her, maybe some DR or healing

https://referendum2024.campaigns.fire-emblem-heroes.com/en-US/
how the frick did she do so terribly in CYL? Even Ash got more debut votes lol
the premise of her book sucks ass, her design is visually very moderate, she has no hint of interest in (You), she's following up on gullveig of all things, her debut competes with her sisters, klutz personality is a tired notion in FE by now, etc
personally it soured me a bit because one of the first things she said was praising alfonse and the book hasn't let up on that either
>klutz personality is a tired notion in FE by now
I swear it feels like that's the third one in a row we got
Weren't Seidr and Ash also kinda klutzy? In general though yeah, it's been done a lot
It's been 2 years so playerbase has declined, and she isn't a big brown cow with massive hips and breasts.
You'd think the praise from that one unique pose would generate some votes for her. But instead others were meming with the snake medical lady.
>drunk half naked snake lady vs scared squirrel
One idea is more funny than the other. Ratty seems like she could turn out well like reginn did, but niddhogr definitely seems more fun in just concept.
Wind Claude but a cute girl.
Stupid and useless Nino!
Played with her in AR today. Lethality should have never been allowed to be precharged.
They could use all secondary class weapons for everyone
Tome Felix for that one weeb class on 3H that uses swords and magic
Lance Bernadetta
Sword Robin
And axe Alfonse to keep the daddy issues tradition.
>Just got a second marth
So what do i do with this
Do i just fodder him
Is potent a good skill?
>>Just got a second marth
>So what do i do with this
Merge him so your Engaged unit gets +1 more stat :^)
Real answer, Potent is a decently offensive B on fast units. I think it's free damage if you're faster.
IS IT EFFECTIVE FOR ME TO USE POTENT 4 ON MY FAVORITE MIDDLING SPEED GHB UNITS
Why'd no one show off the potent 4 restrictions especially since it is usable on fliers and cavalry too this time instead of just the usual infantry unit.
I just realized that with the whole engage shit we might get red emblems as fallen heroes
No shit? There's probably going to be more mechanics or concepts seen in Engage brought into FEH, like more Dragon Veins.
When are the five inheritance slots available?
After the version update
>lodestar rush even has shield DR built in
i see
Literally every new Special has to have unpierceable DR built in, I hate it
Meanwhile Vital Astra may as well just be put on a fricking Grail unit at this point
Post your favorite infantry archer
Takumi, he's so strong! And he can counterattack melee units too. He's the only ranged unit that can do this.
Who the frick is this?
Anon-kun
I’m eitri’s 1# fan. I’m エイトリのトップファン. Nobody can take that from me
Even eitri herself told me she loves me
Everything I’ve done has been for eitri
I love eitri
Nobody else can love eitri as much as I do and eitri wouldn’t even accept their love
エイトリのHusband is an imposter. His eitri isn’t even +10, it’s obviously a ploy to piss me off which it IS working.
However I’m shutting it down right here and right now
Consider your friend request DENIED
I have the rest of my Eitri's unmerged so I can enjoy them in Resort. Also I've had that name for a while but I took a break a little after AHR 2022. I just thought it'd be fun to be friends.
Will we get enough Orbs to spark before the banner expires? I may as well go for Emblem Marth while he's round because being able to turn ANY weapon into a -1 Special weapon is a giant boon to like, 90% of any demote or free unit that just have weapons that give +3 Atk or +3 Spd (remember when they used to give +3 Def or Res too?) as a draw back
How the frick? All beast units all the bonuses. Its literally impossible? Do you have to just keep grinding the mode for cumulative score I legit don't get it after all these years.
Upgrading your Tier is based on High Score, not Cumulative Score
Yeah this PoL was kinda difficult I can agree. Took me 8 tries to get lucky enough to not get screwed with merges. Those Christmas units and Gullveig were a pain if they outleveled you and attacked first.
what kind of score are you ending up with?
are you bringing enough high HP units and having them survive each round?
What are the best colors for the seasonal ticket summons?
They are all outdated as shit so just try to pull for favorites
Can you do a 6x hit if you fodder Potent to a unit with a brave weapon?
Yes
Wild
Damn I only brought low merge mages and bows and made top 600, Gullveig really is the only way to play this mode
>roll arcane weapon
>have a unit who would like those skills
>said unit has no dragonflowers so it feels like a waste
Wait for her refine, it's coming up. Past that, the Ploy skill is fantastic, I love it
>Jill, Luthier and Pirate Vero still months away
Sad.
I was thinking of giving her Arcane Thunder since I luckpulled a Reinhardt with tickets, but I'll hold off til her refine. Thanks, anon! (mine is Resp, +10, max flowers, but a 2019 build)
Np, hope the refine hits what you need
holy shit she doesn't even have a PRF and she's gonna get a refine? I can't believe summer byleth and ingrid are 3 years ago I wan't my boy Hanz to get the best PRF but what are the odds he gets shafted in what 4 years?
Yeah they give demotes prfs after a while now
Same boat but I plus10'd her forma. I got 3 plumeria or whoever the arcane unit is once the 5 inheritance is live she gonna eat good. It may be flower time for me.
tfw flowered but no build
This b***h is going to have a resplendent and refine before a Camilla get a resplendent
>burn arena crests getting nothing but minimal scoring opponents, not even aiming for max every time
>frick up during the streak
>reset and do it again
>ranking ends up overkill anyways
Don'tcha love Arena?
no
why CAN'T my summoner engage for the pointless game modes i can be used in
boooo
Sorry Marth, but i want to Engage with Camilla.
>another 7 years from now
>you will engage with me
M-Marth this so sudden, what would Caeda think?
>oh a character i haven't seen anyone use in a while, i wonder what their refine does
>click it
>wall of text
>close it without reading and just kill them as normal
i don't know why i even bother
What’s the point in emblem marth? No really.
He would be better if he was ranged
GLR loop
It doesn't matter, the engage skill is the actual selling point of emblem Marth.
The unit that comes with it is just a little bonus.
You're more annoying compared to the e-girlcons, dude.
please stop me
What is the issue, do you not like PoL but continue playing, or what?

Why would he get Eirika's tome?

Do you have any unit with Rally Up Spd? You could get Rally Up Spd+ alongside the entire Duel skill ig
Most of my arena core is still Duel 4 shitters so I don't think they're entirely pointless. They're still carried by a highly merged Lego to boost their score to stay in Tier 21 though, but should be fine for Tier 20.5
Honestly, I only won this because Byleth was able to play keepaway with Marth; these four not having stuff like DR pierce and only having standard unpierceable DR can be quite a pain
Their refines can't come soon enough
>only having standard unpierceable DR can be quite a pain
Meant to say only having standard, pierceable DR

This is the least voted hero of the year
Only one person voted for him and said person only voted 1 time
Say something nice to him
Who
Guy who sells you weapons in PoR and RD
Uh, he breeds Sanaki and Elincia all the time!
>AHR isn't organized by color and highest taps anymore
Okay...
When's the main combat manual rotation? I thought it was on anniversary, but I guess not.
Should be Feb-March ish
Can't wait for the update bros, I can give Brave Chrom Atk/Spd Clash 4, Spd Smoke 4, and all of Flow N Trace all at the same time all from Spring Karla
And with just a hundred more codes, a merge!
>NY!FKana already available with grails next update
Nice, I haven't even decided on what build to give her though.
>not voting for Nowi because she's a "child"
>meanwhile Engage Anna, a literal child, ranked higher
>e-girlketes like Sothis and TMS Tiki ranked even higher
Your programming needs some updating, stupid bot.
>spooked by a.fir
boy let me tell you how happy i was to get a floret
was down to my last one
Don't forget to back best mom tomorrow for the voting gauntlet. She needs to make her daughter proud after that terrible upset of being dunked on twice by Altina those years ago. Back the Goddess!
>have to toss marth around like a bawd to my various AA teams abusing the lock function
This is gonna be tedious.
ermmm guys im new do i build fargus or echidna? not too many premium skills. thinking that the fargus mobility would be good for winter byleth but i could also just use echidna as a nuke...? omni tank? not sure what she does
Fargus is gonna be a lot easier to build with no premium skills. Echidna really wants shit a tier 4 DR skill on her b slot. I can't really think of a way of building her budget.
thank you bro should i just follow pm1's build or do you think something else would be better?
PM1's builds are fine to follow, you can just go with them. He gets some shit, but he can give you a good baseline to work with in how to build characters.
i love this board and you are part of the reason why
Another thing to bear in mind is that fargus is just gonna be overall less resource intensive for a new player to build, due to needing way less dragonflowers, so he has that going for him as well.
yeah that's true i'll definitely just go for him since i dont have to refine him too. when someone says "divine code" is that referring to the seasonal compiling things? or does it also include the 1-4?
Both of those things are divine codes.
Fun.
Uh wtf
Isn't a turn supposed to end when all your units already moved
How did you proc Peony's skill when all your units are grey
Change your "smart end" settings.
Yoooooooo wtf ?!
LET'S GOOOOOO
>got every Red except Marf
I’m shocked but not really… at least I got Lumera in 6 pulls
>halloween dozla 2 days in a row
Frick you.
Give them to me, I'm at +3
Got hot springs Sakura
Ngl I completely forgot she existed
Who would be a good hero rises vote? Is ninja Snacki still a good vote for arena meta or ???
Whomever you want and that is newer.
From what I've seen on the Ganker threads, some are saying ninja sanaki, both gullveigs, NY seidr duo, Heidr, Christmas edel/Dimitri, and I think Yunaka as well.
Is Marth selectable for ahr? If he is, then he's a shoo in. Even if you don't care the character, you can get value out if it due to the engage feature, and even then, he has some decent fodder
You can't vote for him.
They anticipated this year's AHR specifically to avoid another Fomortiis situation with Marth and Lumera.
Pretty sure either Winter Edel or Dimi are taking the win regardless.
Ninja Snack, literally any of the Winter units, Wind Tribe Claude
I think any of them have a good chance
Ninja Snack and Mythic Gullveig
I'm finishing my monthly quests and realized I haven't done Arena Assault in the entire month.
Does anyone have an image with the featured 4* seasonals? I need some visual reference to know what's the best color to roll on.
Every color for the 4* seasonals features units from all the way back in 2017, so every color carries the distinct risk for rolling utterly worthless dogshit. With that in mind, I don't think there's any "meta" color pick promising best fodder results. Not to any appreciable degree at any rate.
Those do include some Duo or Harmonized Heroes who got refines though right?
Even if there's a good chance you'll get absolutely nothing (I got fricking NY Takumi lmao) it would still be nice to see what one could get, if such an info graph is out there
Yeah, figured that so I checked what units I'd like and I'm surprised that Spring Myrrh or Delthea are not available. Anyway, I got an Inigo and a Hrid, complete trash, but what's to be expected from anniversary freebies.
>will never get a refine
>will never get another alt because IS only cares about appealing to secondaries
>cursed weapon + movement type combo limits inheritance potential
>new engage mechanic is nerfed on units with brave effect for no good reason
I hate this game, and it hates me
Everyone here is a secondary.
I'm not, I've beaten FE5 like 6 times, and Olwen, Finn and Eyvel are extremely mistreated, and Reinhart keeps getting shit because he's le epic funny tiny hands to the secondaries
You didn't start with fe1.
It just seems just dumb complaint to b***h at a group of people who started FE later, and don't have the ability to go back to older ones
>but emulation!
Is not known to most people. Reinhardt lucked out, and is now fairly infamous from feh. People would rather get another version of him because they known him more than his sister who they didn't use.
I don't know man, it just seems like a really silly way to blame others for not liking a character you like.
When and where you started has no bearing on whether you're a secondary or not, only the degrees of seperation matter. Did you emulate every single FE game last year? Congratulations, you're a primary fan? Does your knowledge of the story and characters come from FEH or some YouTube autist? Then sorry, you're a secondary
They hated him, for he spoke the truth
Did it January 1st before my FEH Pass expired. Not looking forward to next month.
>new engage mechanic is nerfed on units with brave effect for no good reason
Is it actually a nerf? 8 damage lost is nothing when I see 99+ damage in the damage forecast a lot.
Like oh no now it's 91 damage instead.
I picked up this kusoge again in 2021 because I heard she was on 4% banner and receiving a refine in less than a year. The second part didn't happen and now the online for her game is getting shut down.
>Rearmed and Attuned Heroes can equip Arcane and Echo skills from other Rearmed and Attuned Heroes alongside their unique skills
Who benefits the most from this? Aside from obviously the other fairies also getting access to Atk Oath Echo
Rearmed Tana with arcane darkbow comes to mind.
You'd probably want to change her A skill though because darkbow neutralizes penalties.
the only secondaries are those who haven't played more than a few mainlines
so most 3H fans
Engage fans
DO YOUR TRAINING TOWER QUESTS NOW
Talk me out of getting the FEH pass only to spark a new years banner and get NYPlumeria from +5 to +6
I'm not gonna talk you out of it because I'm sure your dumb fricking snuggletime is +10 by now. Took me 4 of her before I got ONE Plumeria.
spending money on a mobile game just for one more merge
Bro, at least do it because you also want the Resplendent. Believe me, those +2 stats, one in HP, won't help as much as you think.
We all know you love your waifu, man. No need to blow money on this dump of a game to prove it by +10 her.
Only if it's Google Rewards + Google Play Point money
Including skills could potentially get that up to 50-60 effective speed so it's alright against most units that aren't built for speed or modern godswords
on one hand, you get a minor benefit of stats just to get closer to +10ing her, and there really isn't a need for it beyond a small feeling of self satisfaction of competition and spoiling your favorite. Don't be like me and fall for the +10 meme. It really isn't needed unless you want to brag to internet strangers. It might even mean less because we have no idea if/how IS takes +10s into account when calculating data.
On the other hand, It's 10$ and you can probably find that in loose change around your house or by skipping the snacks the next time you go to a gas station. In all it really isn't that big of a deal to blow as long as you're not clinging to every penny to stay alive.
no. buy it.
and get based racist xbox resplendent soren
Would Potent 4 be good on units with 40 Spd at max merges/flowers/Summoner Support?
>working on foddering Brave Soren to Rearmed Ophelia to give her some extra T4 skills to recycle
>realized too late that I could have done that and then inherit the skills to my H!Nowi
>H!Nowi can't inherit any of Soren's skills, not even Flare
>she couldn't inherit Rearmed Ophelia's skills either
What's this nonsense? I mean I'm kind of relieved I didn't miss on a chance of giving her more stuff, but damn.
Flare being cucked to Infantry is annoying
fliers get movement skills and...that's it
inheritables are fricked, both melee and ranged have their own flavors of hell, and prfs are their saving grace that also prevents them from getting good inheritables in the first place
>fodder Arcane Eclipse to Spring Severa
>Flare is revealed
>the awkward mix of relief that I don't need to use a second inheritance and annoyance that the new mage special isn't usable by cav mages
Lilinabro, what would you choose between Special Spiral 4 and Mag Null-Follow Up? I'm about to give her some new skills from Ophelia but I'm unsure which one would be better, especially since MNFU also debuffs Spd and she's not the fastest around.
She isn't likely to double naturally with her speed so SS4 is probably better as you should still be able to punch fairly hard with it.
Definitely SS4, go for the one shot
voting gauntlet is a fun place to test builds and get my ass kicked by the latest powercreep anyways
Should I fodder Emblem Marth's B skill to any of my speedy units or should I keep him?
They release new speed skills like crazy, I'd say Marth's emblem ability is a better value when Velocity 4 will eventually pop up
Is it better than Spurn 4 for godswords/godlances?
Do I look like someone who has a copy?
>t. 10.70%
you asked if you should fodder him so I just assumed you have him
I doubt I'll use him besides the Engage mechanic and his B skill is pretty good, that's why I'm thinking about foddering him.
Noted, I'll think if I'll keep him or not. In the meantime I will try out the Engage mechanic.
his Engage mechanic is one of the most busted things ever, slaying effect already is one of the best effects and now you can get double slaying effect thanks to him
Any units that benefit from his Engage ability the most? I doubt the usual godlance/swords can get benefits from his slaying effect.
I've been enjoying it on Attuned Nino. Lets her precharge Lethality and AoE specials for free.
any unit that does not have a 1CD special benifits from it
its useless for those that do since it cannot go lower than 1CD
I was thinking about putting it on my Godaxe. Put GLR on him and he could loop it with TP4 I think
actually, no. tp4 only charges if your special is at its maximum after combat. since you attack once after activating glr this won't be the case. you may be able to charge it in one hit now that you have the marth ring, but tp4 doesn't interact with this.
tp4 still functions as well as tp3, and against dudes with guard which is nice. but it's not really worth it compared to other C skills which improve your matchups against enemies with guard and enemies without it.
I'm not an MLG pro, but Spurn looks better for defensive speedsters, Potent might be better for offense ones
keep in mind you lose the ability to give his emblem buff if you lose him, so only fodder him if its an extra copy
AHR Interim Results
I don't care much for these picks as characters (outside of Altina), so I just hope the winner has good fodder. An arcane weapon or an X skill would be nice
I've been voting for Attuned Peony, really hoping she pulls through.
Same, I think voting for the attuned heroes is probably going to be the best fodder value we could get out of AHR.
>I don't care much for these picks as characters (outside of Altina)
What exactly is Altina's character?
Strong, and
Tough.
Can even strike twice on either phase, too!
It's not so much her character, she doesn't even have a presence in her own game, I just like when crossovers have an opportunity to explore history. Playing such a prominent piece of Tellius' history is pretty awesome, it's like when they added Elimine or that crusader
>it's like when they added Elimine or that crusader
You just made me remember that the crusader lady existed, I can't even remember her name, I don't see anyone using her, I just remember she's a Mythic and that's it
At least Elimine was useful until Freyr murdered her
Ullr. Her refine is probably 6 months away.
Ullr was a solid unit for a while, but she had the issue of not doing anything spectacular, or useful in a way that was harder to powercreep. Altina had the cool TWO SWORDS brave vantage gimmick and won AHR so she gained fans, and eliminated had a busted skill that made her great for pvp modes. Ullr was.....a goo d offensive unit with massive honkers..woo.
Her Prf B having Desperation and Offensive NFU was nice, but her Prf weapon just didn't withstand the test of time. With Ninja Yumi/Whitecap, she at least had x4 at 100% pretty easily, but by the time those were out she could barely make a dent in the Far Save tanks.
I can never spell her name, but I was glad she was added despite not caring that much about Jugdral. I wish they'd do that stuff more often, throw in Soan, more crusaders, and more of the Eight Legends
Yeah, that's what I feel like Mythics should be for, and I'd be down for more of those
Historical characters, ones you only see in the backstory, ones that only join during the eleventh hour
Heroes can actually give you a glimpse into what they're like, but it seems Mythics are mainly just for OCs
That's one of those things I absolutely hate even if I get it. Frick.. Fafnir's Brother (I forgot his name), put in Roland or Athos
I'd be up for that too, but let's be real, there are few characters that qualify as mythic, even in mainline.
They're cool as a concept and to see brought to life but not many would roll for them. There is a reason we haven't had a mythic male background character.
IS had to make base veyle a mythic. And then reprint lumera a year later just because nobody cares about sombron, and engage lacks candidates.
Rafal and Nel could be Mythicals.
technically most heroes mythics fulfill that same idea, it's just that FEH bothers giving them more character
askr and embla were technically mysterious until 6 years in
She’s mythic Brigid
Dual-wielding, dual booba lady
breasts
It sure is
Going to continue voting for duo Byleth because they're the only enemy phase unit left in this game
Oh my god
Are we potentially avoiding morons voting in Fallen Edelgard for a third year in a row?
>Gets a sudden upsurge of last minute votes
>Engage having the highest amount of votes
Not having an actual lord to gather all the votes really ruined the CYL for the game.
I guess it makes sense right
3houses gays are incredibly insular and really only care about that game, so they are just trying to get in the rest of the characters who weren't already in that are widely liked, so they just all voted for the remnants.
As you noted, having so many main characters and not having the benefit of midterms that show in voting order for fans to pile on the most likely character to win resulted in this weird shitshow.
What do you want to bet that INTSYS will take the wrong message from all of this
Yeah, that makes sense to me
Still, I don't think we're not gonna get any Engage content this year, I'm sure we'll get at least one banner with units from Elusia
The mystery is how they'll handle the rest of the Emblem Heroes
Chronogical order? Based on popularity? Who will they have to share with? Will they continue to double up?
God I hope they do interpret this as "nobody likes Engage's characters" because that would ironically be the correct lesson to learn. They're all horrible, phony, lab-grown, focus-tested scrimblos that don't even make an attempt to be interesting beyond being conventionally attractive and seeing people lap them up inflicts psychic damage to me. The sooner they get swept under the rug the better.
literal word salad lmfao
He was just banned and laughed out of /vg/ so coming here to cope over Engage's continued dominance is basically what you'd expect.
this is exactly the outcome i was expecting after seeing the results
on the other hand, you can argue that it's a good thing that the cast isn't 90% deadweight who nobody liked
Only took me another 20 runs or so, but I finally got to swap out Armored Floe for Beacon. So I managed to pull pretty much everything for Lucina I was hoping for. Can't wait to forma her.
What would you consider her best source for NFU? I know she could theoretically make good use of Atk Spd Prime too if stacking the boni from the Wind Tribe Club + Assault Troop + X, although Prime is the one skill option that never came up anyway (so far).
>Distant A/S Solo
>Assault Troop
Is she meant to be PP or EP
Mainly I wanted to give her more offensive PP options, because tanking is not exactly in a good place right now unless your name is Byleth. But I also want to keep her options open for different playstyles. That said, the AS Solo does have some PP utility, even if not as much as Surge Sparrow or similar. And some of what I picked up is really just for fun. She's not going to keep Rally Atk and with a Gambit kit, she's not going to keep Armored Beacon either. But it's nice to have just in case.
Oh, right. This guy exists. I see people heavily invest in plenty of literal whos, but I've never seen anyone build this guy.
I would build him if he retained his original voice actor.
When he originally came out in the Grail shop and when lethality became a special I'd run into plenty of him. Not so much anymore.
a few people built him when he came out, but that was years ago. No idea if they still even play.
Here's my build from around 3 years ago. If I could update him, I'd probably just go the Still Water + Ploy route but I'll see how his refine turns out before anything else
How nice, a BHB of Robin and his daughter
Desert Linde banner is cursed for me. I try to snipe reds but I've ended up with more Ursulas and Byleths than Lindes and Ninos due to circles without reds.
the skill studies with lumera/marth made me realized i've been reading potent wrong the whole time, i thought it was an overkill effect if you were much speedier, but it's more of a catchup effect if you're much slower
It's both
Got a free gregor from the shitty chrom/lucina/robin banner, now Severa has her dad back
This is a silly question, but do Legendary/Mythic units get their remix skills if manual'd before it happens?
I believe yes
Alright, thanks. I don't know why I think they wouldn't
Yeah the Lego/Mythics go straight to the remixed skill sets if you manual them. And any older manuals you have will be updated with the new skills.
>literally no save skills since HOF started
>no useful stance skills
See this is why I'll never give a single cent to this trash ass game
HOF is doing you a favor. Save skills have fallen out of the meta and are going to be worthless until tier 4 is introduced and comes loaded with a bunch of fresh new bullshit.
Aren't they already somewhat T4 skills? Save 3s and your typical T4 skill both cost 300 SP, unless they just have Save 4 also cost 300 SP or something.
They might not be exactly save 4 skills, but it could be something like "DIVINE SAVIOR 3" or whatever those new staff B skills are.
Save tanks really have died, if you're not named Byleth that is
Even Zelgius and Edelgard would rather prefer to move around like actual units and just be player phase behemoths
>save tanks have died
It sucks because most older armors, or demotes, felt pretty much forced into it.
MY Valfonse hasn't seen much use out of TT grinding because everything blows him up. ranged armors are especially fricked because they can't get some of the melee only skills to turn them into better offensive units.
Can ranged armours use Armoured Floe or Beacon? That should help, if not then that's really lame
Maybe related, but I also realize that Guard is also essentially dead
Every new unique Special has the null Guard effect built in, more and more units are coming with Tempo, and now if you want to stop a Special from activating, you need to use Scowl effects (hence why Byleth is pretty much the only Save tank left)
According to the FEH builder they can use Armored beacon/blaze/floe, but some melee infantry have access to the 3 move C skill, and Gambit. moving 1 square at a time used to be fine years ago, but now everyone is so mobile it's a huge detriment. It's partly why save skills exist.
I would have to rely on bringing others to make them more mobile via warp skills/Alear S support, but that takes up limited slots and team building like that is somewhat dead with how characters tend to do almost everything now.
I've sort of wondered what it would've been like if armors had 2 move in any cardinal direction like a lesser Assault Troop. A lot of things about how they handle armor units never made sense to me, Bulwark should've been an armor effect in the first place so armors could effectively act as a chokepoint. They flip between overpowered and useless too easily as it is.
Considering Byleth has the super mega Scowl effect, I feel like armours should at least have access to SOME form of Scowl, it would at least be something when Special Fighter doesn't do shit anymore thanks to Tempo being everywhere
But it seems that's a Dragon only tool (again, Byleth aside)
>Brave Tiki's gimmick got immediately outsourced as an all dragons thing
They really didn't like her, huh?
It's always been obvious. But the most shameless time was when they released ascended Y!Tiki like a month later and she had her same gimmick but better. Also, gluing Y!Tiki to her most recent alt
Halloween Duma came out before Ascended Tiki with the Scowl effect so it was always going to be an all dragons thing. Brave Tiki just got to introduce it. Brave Tiki's other thing was precharging her special at the start of combat which Diamant ended up taking.
They have content planned out likely a year in advance. There's a decent chance it's just bad luck.
>gluing YTiki to her bridal
What is the issue? I have several sisters and when they were younger they wanted to be a good mom, and played with dolls houses to pretend they were an adult. It's a common thing. Seeing the difference between young tiki and adult tiki was cute and a bit disheartening given Ytiki liking marth, and that is something Atiki got over. the only better candidates for a bridal duo/harmonic for Tiki would be Bantu acting like her dad and walking her down the isle, or Naga and getting to see how her/his daughter grew up and is getting married. Bantu might give people the wrong idea so he is out. That leaves Naga, but with Young Tiki you get twice the character you like.
It feels like people look too much into that alt. I thought it was a cute pairing.
it's because the alt is kinda centered on Y!tiki. A!Tiki fans want ISIS to write A!Tiki dialogue that isn't "remember how I was in FE1/3?". It's like only Letting Finn/Shannon/ other surviving Gen 1 Jug character only talk about about the shit that happened in Gen 1. There should be more to the character. Imagine that they finally give Karel his sword saint FE6 alt but he only talks about how bloodthirsty he was in FE7.
Difference is that Karel was a sword saint in the series first and we saw how he was later on. A!Tiki was literally put in Awakening as fanservice. It's massively blown out of proportion because Awakening was their first game so they didn't get that feeling of seeing an old fan favorite again.
but young tiki isn't a fav favorite though
Young tiki was one of the more popular FE1/3 characters, wasn't she?
I think what anon was implying was that Y!Tiki didn't win CYL.
They've always made it clear they do not like adult Tiki, which is a shame
They put her in her young self's clothes, and then release another young Tiki to steal her gimmick just a few months later
Her regular version finally getting a Resplendent a while ago was nice, and Brave Tiki IS gonna get a refine this year, so at least she's got that going for her now
The only solution is to rearrange some of the words in your post.
Resplendent Brave Tiki. Only then can FEH truly heal
her and byleth instilled the fear in me that even CYL art is not safe
Really, and not Marianne? I felt a gutpunch when she got Kusokihara'd (especially when I saved 1300 orbs to +10 her and still did)
I dont understand, whats wrong with Marianne brave art?
The face
The pose in the attacking art
>the face
hmm yeah now that oyu point it out, it does look a bit odd
>attack pose
I agree that one was always a bit silly to me. I dont hate but yeah it could be better. didnt know other people didnt like
It could have been worse honestly, at least the crest beast in her special art looks sick (too bad you'll never see it if you keep her prf special)
I dont see all the fuss armpit gods are eating good and she's a great unit to boot.
>never see the crest beast with her prf special
This is actually the only gripe I have. She could have been a tome dancer with the prf in the dance or some other shenanigans. It could have been on her PRF refine so we could give her better specials but alas cest la FEH.
>Brave Tiki and Sothis need a refine
>Brave Seliph and Chrom do not
This year will be bittersweet
Tiki and Byleth do need the most help
Seliph is still good, but he can struggle a bit, shit's just way too fast for him now, and even his Miracle can't save him, especially against Fatal Smoke 4
Only Chrom has stood the test of time and that's because he keeps getting stronger with more and more status effects he can steal
I would expect Chrom to get a tame but still good refine that brings him up to speed (like with Marth), and hopefully the others get refines that put them back on the map
>moving 1 square at a time used to be fine years ago
It's never been okay. It was so not okay that Armor March came out within Year 1
assault troop sacred seal please!!
forget saves, give me assault troop 4 and make it give galeforce that explicitly doesn't stack with edelgard
Does Potent work with Phantom Speed?
No, phantom speed doesn't affect Potent 4
Thank you!
>bhb with book 1 unit
They doesn't want people to roll decent unit on a 3 man banner, right?
Hey, does anyone know when his refine and remix are?
Probably not until next year. We're still getting through book 4 units, right?
He was released halfway through book 5.
We just finished Book 4 with Triandra.
>Petrine soon
I legitimately can not wait for this. I hope it's good.
Me too, Petrinebro
Roughly 4 months out
>Seiros, Claude, Dagr, and Sigurd refines and remixes soon
>Seteth's refine also soon
Can't wait
So close, gimme that refine
>tfw I was going to fodder a bunch of tier 4 skills to the wrong Lumera
The fricking art looks way too similar for the two of them wtf
her and Marth basically looking the same as before was the final slap in the face of the latest update
Marth is virtually Day 1 Marth but glowing blue,we have come full circle.
hey i just realized, they robbed us of emblem alear
unless they make it the male one instead
Emblem Heroes have only just begun, we're getting Emblem Alear for sure
And Alear will be the first Emblem to imbue your Special with the ability to not only pierce through any DR but also prevent defensive Specials from activating
Damn, Sothis lost again left in a ditch. Guess she isn't as great a mom as Lumera who saved her child. I mean she only saved Fodlan and died. Saving the world≠saving own child's life.
lumera was ahead pretty much the whole time
i think people generally don't like sothis for some reason, not even 3H fandom saved her
IS certainly doesn't like her, that's for sure
>i think people generally don't like sothis for some reason
The story just dropping her 11 chapters in didn't do her any favors. Hopes did something neat with her at least.
I almost feel bad for hoping Rinkah gets a shit refine but then I remember how often she's killed my pity
hi guys what do you think of my team? i tried to go for a flier type team and validar's just there because lysithea debuffls.
i was thinking ashnard can fit in there somewhere if his refine comes out but not so sure. I have a few more fliers if anyone think a full flying team would be better and wants to hear what i have
I'm a tierlet, but it seems fine. Arion could use a better A, or at least T4, skill, but they seem like a decent team.
You could replace Validar later if you want. I don't know what the synergy between Validar and Lysithea are, but if you just want Validar for debuffs then Zephia should also debuff and she is a red mage flier. Aversa does the same thing, but is years older. Wait to see what Ashnard's refine is and if you want him because Arion's flying buff is really nice, and on top of that Arion is a more modern unit. If you are willing to wait, Arion would also save you grails as he should get a few more free copies from reruns over the the next year or two. IS normally gives enough copies of a GHB to +5, but rarely do they do one run and then are done.
holy frick this advice is so good thank you, yeah i know the a skill could be better and i was thinking atk def unity but im not sure if im tryna fodder that off. but yeah i'll look into the units you mentioned thanks a bunch
Is it possible to enemy phase Emblem Marth?
No
It's a one-shot meta. As a general rule I'd always assume that the latest units will instakill anything they touch, so I need to one-shot them first on player phase. And if I can't do that, I lose.
It's telling that my reaction to ever being able to successfully enemy phase a new unit (and not just survive with 5% hp after my weapon triangle advantage) is not "just as expected" but "wow, this new guy is actually really bad"
Emblem Byleth will refresh four units at once

Man this herofest fricking honks. I literally rolled colorless for no other reason than the chance of getting a random etie.
I would have +10'd Fomo on today's hero fest if they hadn't released Emblem Marth.
Now I feel like saving orbs for a +10 emblem is much more important but who knows when we'll get one I care about...
dont save orbs for a +10 emblem. thats moronic
I'll be honest, I'm not dead set on it just yet.
But it's like having a seal that occupies its own slot and also gives +10 dragonflowers to any unit. Seems like a timeless investment.
the main competition would be other emblems
sure, cd-1 is huge, but they could still give us an attuned cd-1, or give the other emblems much more powerful effects
GLR really shits all over my prflet armor's options of blaze/beacon/aegis/pavise/etc
What is the best accessory for valentines owain? My plus 10 boy is about to get some MAJOR bonuses once the HOF ends.
Something chuuni
The black wings accessory would be cool
there's nothing more chuuni than the BRS eye flames
...when was the last time we even had that mode
I miss Grand Conquest, I think that's my favorite FEH mode
I don't intend to use a soul on Owain, but funnily enough I ended up with a very similar build for him. He effortlessly became my second best unit even though I wasn't gunning for it at all, just from picking up some skills here and there so he'd be able to "pull his weight." Flared Sparrow in particular still is ludicrously useful. Anyway, congratulations your successful skill harvest and hope he'll serve you well.
I have him wearing a fish on his head. Happy you're happy fellow +10 valentines chuuni bro.
The winner gers to be in the Smash re6oot.
>every vg has w.edelgard
okay fine i'll just bring a direct counter instead
and no, i won't do the low-level trick because that's boring

I like this
I need fury 6 to come out.
Would it even be broken at this point?
It would be pretty fun to be able to knock yourself under 50% HP in 1 combat from self damage to make yourself a WoM target easier.
fury 10 f.doot is pretty fun but all the 2/4 of the stats really are wasted
maybe an aoe/ploy build might work on someone
It would be cool if the fury upgrade also had true damage based on how low your hp is
They gave damage reflection to a B skill and that used to be unique to Fjorm (and then Hans), I don't see why they couldn't give us a Reprisal/Vengeance effect on hit anymore.
>fury stacking
>vengeance + emblem roy (hold out)
>special spiral
>assault troop 4 (has canto [recall])
i want a human cannonball
nyx and eitri have counter too
>nyx and eitri have counter too
Good call, totally forgot about them
>vengeance
I have had a double wrath barst built since his refine and hardly used. It seems really fun to vengeance bomb people but Fury is so weak nowadays. I'm debating rolling an Emblem marth to pull him out of the shed, need the orbs for other characters next week.
You can move the Emblem Engage buff around freely, right? It isn't one and done?
yep
cool, thanks.
>the mental image of a ring being permanently stuck to a character and the Emblem being almost yandere about it
Heh
I can already feel that they’re going to price jump the FEH Pass just to let us do 2 more pairings. Once they release a few more of them…
>no quarter + emblem marth + slaying + flow desperation
damn i wish i had fodder
>still no summer lindes
Not like this.
show summer linde I'm sorry for you bro the seasonal 4star demotes have been the best chance I ever had at +10ing seasonal units.
Got me to do winter annette while chasing for fodder
I haven't touched her in years not in that way. I'm waiting on an Arcane dagger that doesn't suck before updating her set. She's +4 with flowers and a floret, though.
It's pretty weird that they made the first Arcane dagger to be a generalist dagger when daggers are usually very fast units, you'd think they'd get the Null Follow-Up Arcane weapon first

GIVE ME ONE
PLEASE
My man, if I could I would.
I'm sorry, anon. She's in the Shadow Realm now
How'd your tickets go? I got crap outside of Altina and Dozla
LITERAL unusable garbage and an extra copy of an already +10 unit. Awesome!
Got some free merges (2 dancer Ishtar, 1 summer Noire), some nice units (Christmas Eirika, halloween Nowi) and a nice budget fodder (Christmas Bernie and Christmas Altina)
Not bad imo
Great. I got some fjorm merges, which is one of the things I wanted. The bunny Sharena is also cool because my alt account got one as well so I can use a BW forma on her if I want.
Micaiah merge, a bunch of duos and Plum
Happy with these pulls
You know the rolls are terrible when the game gives you nothing but male seasonals, and Hrid wouldn't leave me alone, but at least I managed to get a Pirate Vero.
I got a free Summer Lilina with the ticket, when I already dumped thousands of orbs to +10 her, it's a weird feeling.
>rally+ fodder
>couple of valor skills
>Hinoka my beloved
>a merge for the H!Henry I haven't touched since 2018
Not terrible. Not particularly good either.
Give me it
That thing
your summer elises
no way
Azura and Leanne are going to feast upon her flesh as soon as the update drops
Not too bad. Outside of Caeda, the second Elise, Palla and Lukas, non of them have been repeats. Also, now my Palla stands at +6
Focused red because that's where all the duos are. Picked up duo Altina, Dorothea, Summer Byleth, and a bunch of assorted trash. Could've been a lot worse, having all of the seasonal units on this banner is deeply evil considering how terrible the early ones are
Holy worthless bunnies, Batman
I got Spring Bruno, Chrom, Kagero, so basically nothing
Though I guess Spring Palla has Disarm Trap at least, that's something
Aside from that there's also Winter Nino, Bridal Lyn, NY Gunnthra, and another Summer Dorothea
Is that it for the free seasonal summons? Or are there still more from those maps coming
Apparently there are 20 tickets in total.
Not a good season for Devourer it seems
>thinking of picking up a devourer for lapis
>all i can think of is the extra dragonflowers i'll be needing to spend every year after each cap increase
I think this build has worked pretty nicely so far for me.
Give me the increased skill inheritance cap already, I want to get on with building my units goddammit
NO, you must wait until 5x XP is over
>need 6 skill inheritance to kill off fallen byleths since i have no CC3 fodder but plenty of DC/TP3
Fug.
>Winter Chroms back-to-back
Imagine if they had just given those prflet seasonals prfs and refines
The rate of refines is already slow as piss. I hope they speed it up.
>the new memento event
Adorable
Are the silhouettes tonight?
It should be a New Hero banner, so no silhouettes
Nope
It's valentine banner
Oh, that's a lot of seasonals in a row.
Dec-Feb, or at least Jan-Feb, tends to be stocked with banners.
Yeah, and now that I checked, we did get a New Hero banner in between those seasonals (Rearmed Reinhardt)
day of devotion is a complete crapshoot in who they decide to pick. maybe it'll be engage this year and we could get the missing retainers?
i'm also curious about whose harem we'll get for brides later. maybe m corrin? but his exclusive supports are flora, reina, scarlet, and anna. that sure is...something
still better than fate royal#2673
>Eve
>Seforia
>Morion
>Hyacinth
>TT Sombron
Would be fun
I'm surprised you still care about bridal banners when they have been utter trash for years.
bridal gullveig soon
You have my attention.
I feel like Summer Gullveig is inevitable
why not both?
Sure, why not
>bridal
the way i see it, there are a few possiblities.
1) Awakening 2 bridal with grom Chrom/ Bridal Frobin, and some others like Aversa
2)Fates bridal with either Mamui-sexual units, or they stuff Camilla, Azura, and Femui in there, possibly shafting Mamui. Femui is a bit due for an alt.
3) new banner altogether, potentially FE7 bridal with Groom hector/Eliwood.
Groom Mamui wouldn't be bad because then he can be paired with fates waifus, but the selection of Mamui-sexual units isn't amazing. We also got Bridal anna last year, a Reina 4-6 months ago, and L!Camilla in december, so that likely cuts on three spots. While IS doesn't care about profits, this would leave Scarlet, and Flora which are niche. Either IS adds stuff like Bridal Femui/Azura or has a Femui-sexual banner which would be even worse bar Femui.
knowing this, and that FE6 got two bridals in a row + with the fact that IS likes to make alts of potential CYL winners earlier in the year, it is likely we get a another Awakening bridal but focused on Chrom.
TL:DR
Groom mamui isn't terrible, but the selection for everyone else isn't great from a certain standpoint. Bridal Awakening 2.0: Chrom'd edition is more likely.
it's hilarious that they know enough to sell only brides instead of grooms, while also making it brides that nobody wants and/or are canonically taken
truly IS are masters of fricking up
>1) Awakening 2 bridal with grom Chrom/ Bridal Frobin
Impossible, Chrom is only for male Robin (Groom Robin continues the trend of only mentioning Chrom) and female Robin is just Grima
2 seems likely though, since the whole avatar + avatarsexuals is something they can roll with
The issue with option 2 is that half the candidates are likely gone if it's doing avatar-sexual candidates. It would be very awkward to get two bridal anna's, two Reina's within 5-10 months, and better options like Camilla would have gotten an alt 5 months previously. IS stopped shoving her alts every 6 months years ago due to backlash.
So who would they shove onto a Bridal Mamui banner knowing those are down for this year? even if we got with Avatar sexuals we would have Scarlet+Flora and that leaves 2 slots open.
Anyone you're gonna try and +10 now?
Edgy Dimitri. I'm trying to save orbs for a +10 L!Camilla though so that might take a while
Hardin, but why is there so much Fallen Morgan?
mia. lute. marianne. B!marianne. nephenee. and nyx. I never have enough orbs
I wanted to finish off some Mamui's/Fkana, but there are so many characters I want a few merges for this year that I might just hold off, or scrap trying to +10 anyone anymore all together. it doesn't help that so many older characters need dragonflowers to function.
I still want to get Farina there eventually, but for the moment I'm running too low on orbs to make a dedicated effort. Just gotta hope I'll happen to run into her, now that she's being demoted.
I wish they would make Katarina a true 4 star, it's been almost 7 years now
other than that I already have both female Morgans and Berni at +10 so if anything I'm only slightly interested in getting dupes for a few 3H characters
>nifl up first
Frick, no orbs. I'll have to wait 'til July, but July has swimsuits, so I doubt I'll have orbs then either.
Also, weekly revival banners really needed to be changed this year. 4% shouldn't still be the best odds you'll ever get to pull some of these shitters.
it's far more egregious that none of those banners have a guarantee
to this day i rue the fact that feh pass wasn't met with enough vitriol, and so we have paid-locked guarantees that aren't even on every banner, and basic gameplay features like autoreplay withheld
reruns don't have a spark for anyone. It's dumb.
I spent 200-400 orbs for 2 Kana's years ago, and it burnt me out on those ever since.
They could at least have a 5%, or 6% with how old they are and how much investment they now need.
Agreed, not having a spark on those revival banners is kinda nonsense
A good 80% of them aren't even good! Either anymore, or at all, so they may as well give people trying to merge them up a better shot
I feel like making them easier to roll for would bring in more money as well. At the moment, weekly revival banners aren't very enticing especially when you can just wait for arena tickets and random off-focus special rate 4* pulls to finish off your old +10s so a lot of people don't bother rolling on them even if they have units they want on them, but if they made a banner with odds worth rolling for, that's more orbs they could suck out of people.
You could just, you know, hide and ignore his posts until he inevitably gets banned.
Report and ignore. Giving shitheads attention is the hole /feh/ is forever stuck in
Maybe we should move to /vst/ or /vrpg/ or something
>700 orbs and still no Emblem Marth
>rolled Ascended Fir and Legendary Hinoka
what the frick man
no spark?
Are there usually no Anniversary Orb deals?
Orb pack deals are only sold on:
New Years
Golden Week (which is in April)
Summer
Black Friday
Starter packs and forma packs rotate monthly, I believe.
Way better than Brave Celica. Plus I already had a copy, so now she's +1 +Spd.
Nemesis Sexo
Another Dreamilla free roll
She's +7 now
Talked about this a bit in /feh/, but what ideas do you guys have for a Nemesis refine? He's coming up soon and I can't for the life of me think of what his weapon will do.
>Make his DR for every hit
>Give him Tempo to match base SotC refine
>Follow up denial
>If unit can double, doubles DR on first hit
>Deals damage equal to 15% of his Defense
Would beef him up considerably
yeah so basically what
said but also distant counter
and also give his weapon savage blow before and after combat
>Dark Creator Sword:
>+3 Def, grants +4 Atk/Def/Res during combat
>get an extra +2 Atk/Def/Res for each ally on the map with over 50% HP, max 6
>get 30% DR on foe's first attack for each ally on the map with over 50% HP, max 90% DR
>remember, Nemesis is slow as shit
>skill refine gives a guaranteed follow-up attack and follow-up denial, +4 Atk/Def/Res
>and he deals damage = 20% of foe's Atk, or 40% if against a dragon or beast
thoughts?
good filename
>Scowl with 25 Res
I'm guessing it's just a placeholder inherit because you'll use her base A. Can dragons get any 500 SP special that isn't Aether?
Just Aether and Blue Flame, I've been waiting for a new dragon accessible special for ages.
Top Reddit authorities say Scowl is a must-have for Frobin THOUGH.
>Top Reddit authorities
penismaster1?
Even he'd say not to use Scowl unless you have like, 45+ base Res at the minimum
does an AA defense give you half points in your arena defense listings?
i'm not sure where i got this one from otherwise, since my defense team with bonus unit hasn't changed
I believe it has something to do with the bonus hero being a "version 7 unit".
What unit do you want the most, but don't have?
Hardin. I want make a team based on his VA
>I want make a team based on
There's a lot of units I wish I would invest in for this reason, but there's typically a weak link or variant I simply don't like that I really don't want to throw too much resources into just for a theme team such as
>base/wind catria for a catria team
>ny laevatein for a laevatein team
>base nino for a nino team
and probably a few more.
Yeah, resources are a complete b***h, I need to dump a bunch into Fallen Hardin for this team, but I can't even get merges for him
Currently Lumera for her Fodder. Her banner isn't giving me her and I already sparked Marth since the engage mechanic gives significant advantage so I prioritized him over her.
charlotte
>don't like her bridal art, especially compared to her base art
>didn't play fates until after her base unit debuted
>by the time i wanted her, all her reruns didn't have pity and fricked me over
Nyx. She's a qt and I liked her a lot in Fates but I've never felt the need to spend orbs on her.
>Is any going to chain fodder once they allow for five inheritance?
I can't wait til the update. I'm planning on killing W!Dimitri and foddering him to R!Chrom who I'll then fodder the newly inherited skills to my R!Grima so I'll then have two sources of Atk/spd Prime 4. From there I'm going to use my extra rearmed spares of those units to further spread skills in my barracks.
Idk if I have anything of that sort
I'm just excited to get a merge for Brave Chrom tomorrow while also giving him Atk/Spd Clash 4, Spd Smoke 4, and Flow N Trace from an extra Spring Karla I got
Can't wait for the update, can't wait for his eventual refine
pass 4, but it lets you overlap one enemy to attack the one behind it
Pass 4 would just have enemy spaces be free, or at least the first one be free + canto 1.
Make Triangle Adept 4 and Cancel Affinity 4 actually worth using
TA4 should inflict the Feud effect and give you unpierceable DR if you have WTA
Not sure about CA4 though
TA4 should give you the Seer's Snare Weapon Triangle, maybe some stats too, like, Atk/Spd TA
It's Duo _____!
ingrid/ilyana
devoted to food
Surtr!
Oh it's Sacred Stones time
Myrrh and Ephraim, so probably Eirika, Fado, and/or Morva I guess
I know it'll never happen, but I'd kill for them to throw in Valentine's monsters. Throw in Fomortiis or a deathgoyle
You'll get gorgon breasts and you'll like it.
No!
Okay, that works too.
Valentines doesn't always have dead dads, or atheist last years didn't. I'm guessing another eirika and lyon alt, but the 5th could be either a dad or someone else.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I honestly can't guess which one's going to be the TT here
Can't be either of those two, at least
Maybe Lyon

hey lads, divegrass anon here, it's that time again to choose your reps to /vmg/ 4cc team, if you don't know what i'm talking about + final poll dates: https://pastebin.com/nr9ujDMN . Last time Burger King on the team so besides him, who else are we sending to the poll?
Draug for general fire emblem as he is currently a God in my Shadow Dragon run.
Schizo fafnir or Veronica for feh specifically as people seem amicable to Vero and enjoyed fafnirs schizo memes.
Personal pick is one of the free OC girls, Fjorm, Eir, peony, Reginn, Ash, seidr, Or ratatoskr. I just like them.
could you specify on which ones you like? preferably with a cool in-game name as well
>specify which ones you like
what do you mean? I like all of the characters listed. They were separated a bit based on what others might like and what my personal preferences were.
Draug isn't as popular, but he is the first knight in FE, and there are some memes around him.
Fafnir/Veronica seemed to have been enjoyed by others in other FEH threads , and are FEH OCs so they better represent the game than Draug.
The OC free girls in the long list of girls are hit or miss. usually someone likes one, but they aren't as widely popular.
My personal favorites are Eir>Seidr>Fjorm=Reginn> Ash>Peony> Ratatoskr
Another option that is fairly popular is Gullveig, she came out last year and won CYL immediately.
>Cool in game name as well
Do you mean like a handle/nickname they can identify as? I'm shit at names, so I don't have many.
I guess Draug could take the title of "THE WALL" from Lukas as Lukas has fallen out of relevancy in FEH. If you wish to feed several moronic shitposter's ego you could label Ratatoskr as "roedor de la pobreza" or poverty rodent/Rodent of poor sales.
Now that the other anon mentions it, I'm not sure if any of these characters have models you can easily rip from the game, so that might complicate things. You could just steal the 2d sprites and make them bigger. I'm not sure how it would look texture wise but might be funny to see.
Here are the wiki links if you want to see what the characters look like. some have multiple versions.
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Draug
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/F%C3%A1fnir_(character)
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Veronica
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Fjorm
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Eir?so=search
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Peony?so=search
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Reginn?so=search
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Ash?so=search
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Sei%C3%B0r?so=search
https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Gullveig
to sum it up, my personal preference would just be a FEH OC as this is a FEH based thread, and the characters are fun.
If they are not possible then perhaps you can rip Azura/Male Corrin from FE Fates ford the 3ds and have Azura pushing a wheelchair bound Male Corrin around. I only suggest this because the last event I saw had some cool customized models with Eirika on Ephraims back.
Camilla, Aversa, and/or F!Morgan are my votes.
Personally, I'd go with Dimitri, he's one of the Lords in Three Houses
He has kind of a savage barbarian look to him after the time skip, and is jokingly called "The Boar" by one of his friends, but he kind of lives up to that title
Plus, he should have a model easily available somewhere?
got it
the problem with too many suggestions from one thread is that not a lot of them are going to join the team regardless due to how the poll works also we're trying to cut down players that are just *insert character name here* , after all it is more interesting if we had something different as a in-game name. But i appreciate the ones you gave me, i will be sure to add them to the poll, the dates are on the pastebin, thanks for the support.
Myrrh will have the Res equivalent of Armoured Blaze, and will have an improved version of her Legendary version's unique skill
Here's your TT unit bro
Valentines gheb.
Man, that'd be sick
>Valentine's Myrrh
>when I'm saving for Spring Myrrh and Delthea
>she will also come with brand new premium manakete skills
I hate it here.
>the best fodder for myrrh will be another myrrh
in a better world, all heroes would give inheritance like rearmeds
She and maybe Spring version post-refine will be able to survive the one-shot meta for all of a month or so, enjoy it while it lasts anon
>fe8 banner
>soulless characters like Ephraim and Myrrh
Yep, I'm thinking it's an easy skip
Anything from the tickets?
I got another 4* Ferdinand, but I also got Summer Fjorm!
Nope!
Damn, I think I can forgive that luck, I've wanted her for a bit
Tea Ayra, but I don't really have anyone that immediately wants her skills. Maybe Bride Catria I guess.
Got two 3* Inigo back to back, that's pretty cool.
Okay!
2 e-girl Rebeccas and Dheginsea
Was tempted to merge my 'Beccas but then I saw her skill list. Ark/spd finish is too useful as fodder.
Nothing.
Summer Fjorm and Duo Linde
I summoned Harmonic Linde and Sara and my first copy of Ike, the one with Heavy Blade 3.
Summer Shez
I keep getting Spring Kageros, I have 8 now...
If not her I got multiple Plegian Dorotheas as well
duo linde and summer shez
a summer joshua and 2 dancer Ishtar's, pretty happy about that.
I know people hated Relay Defense, but I still think some kind of challenging survival mode would be fun. Emphasis on challenging, so not Mjollnir Strike.
mjolnir's would (sometimes) be hell if they let seasonals be included
grand conquests can be a notable onslaught on highest difficulty, but everything released in the past year probably ruins that mode completely, if it decided to exist more than once in a blue moon
Relay Defense could come back now and it'd be completely fine as long as the units it summoned aren't from the last 2 years.
Does anyone keep Sacrifice on Micaiah?
No give her reposition
it could've been neat if we were able to swap during battle between 2~3 of the weapons a character has inherited
These aren’t real double special heroes banners right? Halloween Anna isn’t gonna have her only rerun be on a crowded af banner right
No
They're going to dump 4* blues and Summer Shamir
The last banner will be colorless and green heavy
I can't believe I got a third taimanin laevatine from these tickets, what the frick
It seems accounts seem to have seeded waifus hence why people tend to get multiples of one hero
Dumb sword just loves you
I just got my fourth fricking taimanin laevatine from these tickets
What the frick
I almost feel like I should try to finish her off next time her banner pops up, because I'm already fricking halfway there.
Weird question but when you equip an Emblem, does the unit gain its boon/bane?
Nope
lumera has bonus
>dropping out of VoH despite doing perfect offenses
You hate to see it.
>Staying in Vault by 20 points because of near perfect defenses
You love to see it only had -100 this week, super lucked out
>fail last match
>b***h slapped backed to t21
>couldn’t even get to 27 this weak because of screwing up the last match
It’s over.
One time I was merely 20 points away from staying in Vault of Heaven, meaning if I had a better defense I would've made it and I could have just coasted forever (probably)
A bit frustrating, but ah well
Got a summer Shez from once of the tickets today. Is it me, or is lull spd/def 4 kinda underwhelming? The only thing it adds to lull 3 is an extra -1 spd/def for each unique buff the enemy has, right? I wanted to fodder her off (already had one), but I'm struggling to decide what to do with her
what flavor of lance/axe infantry/cav/armored will ephraim be this time
i honestly hope he's armored for the possibility of better C skills
He's armoured for sure
It's valentines so it's likely armored. Valentines usually has a heavy armor preference for whatever reason.
Surprised to see people say they have trouble with AR. What do your teams look like? I just use a superbuffed Lene on Light and superbuffed Mia on Astra, and if it doesn't seem like they can tank, I use pic related on Light and horse Galeforcers on Astra. I don't win all the time, but I never go through all my ladders.
>Light
Ninja Camilla plonk
>Astra
Save units
I hit the auto create button and go from there.
Same here. I tried getting into things, but cav lines completely sunk my enjoyment
For your offensive structures, just run the defense fortress, the Escape Ladder, and the bonus structure. After years, I finally started doing it and Cav lines magically became easy as piss overnight. It literally is that easy. I thought ditching the Safety Fence would make AR unplayable, but it's completely fine.
What’s up with her face? I feel I seen her in one of those japanese pornos
I only used ~350 orbs for the 4 copies I needed so I'm happy.
Congratulations, now what do you plan on doing?
That banner seems fairly blessed for several people. I'd be tempted to blow more orbs on it for the last two merges needed, but don't want to risk getting greedy past spark given that 4 red situation.
tfw the only thing keeping me from rank 1 is mythic merges
i shudder to think how much the max whales in this game constantly spend
I hope it's a bunch, keep FEH up while I build freebies
I hope we get 1200 more codes before the rotation. I want to give my spooky Myrrh Far Save.
>Takumi shitting up my arena summons
>three fricking NY Takumi when I go colorless
I AM GOING TO COMMIT WARCRIMES UPON HOSHIDO
what a coincidence, i remember i got 3 ny takumis when going for ny camilla on her original run
and i was sniping reds
I got two Summer Takumi on the special tickets. This guy blows.
Good.
It's Duo!
>Canny Fighter
>on Myrrh
Oh come on.
it's kinda nice that they're making more answers to NFU, but at the same time DR piercing is going to run right through them anyways
>it's kinda nice that they're making more answers to NFU,
How exactly? Like I'm just not sure what on this banner is an NFU answer
myrrh's B, which is similar to weaving fighter from w.byleth
?si=_vMYdVkOONOUAzgw
I feel like I would've loved this banner if it came out years ago. Well now there's powercreep dampening my excitement...
How the frick is this even fair I do like the myrrh thou
Alright, what budget bootleg Fighter skill will Vigarde come with, maybe Even Follow-Up
What would his weapon even have? Selena's weapon is pretty much just a watered down version of Legendary Camilla's, and armours can't get that effect
Either way, EASY skip
Lovely looking banner, but man, I do not have the orbs
I'm so fricking tired of Lyon. I get shoving Eirika and Ephraim in every SS banner, they're the protagonists, but why him? He even had to bring Vigarde, we could have got Fado for frick's sake
Every single unit on the banner is a character who has a gorillion alts, except for Selena who has one. What a shitshow.
Why is Selena there even? Is she popular?
Unrequited love unit
Look at the bright side, it's not another dead parents Valentine.
Vigarde is literally walking dead
I love sacred stones but wow I fricking hate this banner
Same here. I'm so tired of more Twins and Lyon. I'm still waiting for another Marisa alt and Gerik and his crew to get an alt. Amelia from Year 1 hasn't gotten a single alt, and I'm very sad she's gotten nothing.
What you're seeing is a scared developer
You mean a Sacred developer?
bro Im just over here starving for Knoll
Where's the update? Wasn't it supposed to be 20 minutes ago?
Same, where's my fricking Ashnard refine
Jesus, look at all that special acceleration on Bernie, saying nothing about the insane speed stacking and auto-proc on her Desperation effect
We win again Bernie bros
>rinkah
>grants Atk/Def+5 and Spd/Res +4 to unit
for what fricking purpose was this even necessary
def-reducing damage is a huge upgrade on its own already though, and she even gets counter
>for what fricking purpose was this even necessary
They are incredibly insistent on every refine giving +4 to all stats, even if the unit doesn't even make good use of all the stats.
These are absurd lol
>No auto follow up
Kinda disappointing, but beyond that it looks pretty good
It's cracked even without it, all the best effects aren't even in the green text. It inflicts:
>-5 A/D
>A/D lull
>follow up negation
>Guard
On EVERY unit within 4 spaces, even when Ashnard isn't the one fighting. They actually gave him Daunt.
>They actually gave him Daunt
Soul
At least a few of this batch's refines alone came with the "neutralize opposing guaranteed follow-up" part so it honestly wouldn't have made too much of a difference anyway
The rest of the effects are still pretty good, I feel
I was b***hing about auto follow up, but lower def enough and he doesn't even need it. I teamed him up with my Def/Res Ploy mage and he hits crazy hard
It's out now. Refines have been posted
Let's fricking go, Rinkah actually got a good refine
>skill inheritance increased
>can't inherit all of Myrrh's skills anyway because Def/Res Scowl is brand new and there's no Scowl 3 fodder
I'm getting sick of this bullshit. Also, I'm damn sure I'll once again be forced to spark for one single copy of her.
He's glowing with health
He just screams prflet
>his smile and optimism: restored
hes staring at me like the Cold Stone Steve Austin meme
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FADO
What's his fodder?
>Duo Lyon and Eirika
I thought male and female Duos were only reserved for parents and children (Hector and Lilina) or different versions of one's self (the Byleths)? Every Duo and Harmonized is just two dudes or two chicks otherwise
>looks at Alm and Celicia duo from a previous valentines banner, or pirate Veronica and Xander
Cmon anon
who's the motherfricker that keeps greenlighting these precombat damage units
+5 to all stats + an extra 20% of unit's [stat] is the new +5 to all stats
>reginn refine is finally out
Neat. My minimum investment reginn still gets use so this will only help her out even more.
Regrettably, it's ass
Time to invest on T4 skills.
>+10
Congratulations.
Did you not want to wait for the free manual in a few months?
Eirika a cute, but she's backpacked and I don't care much for Lyon so I probably won't +10 this one.
you only need ton +5 a duo backpack. That is my new narrative.
Which unit did you inherit five skills to first anons, now that we can?
I now have Mega Chrom
I already inherited everything so I can't show the screen prior to inheritance. But I got No Quarter, Flared Sparrow, Assassin Strike, Fatal smoke 4 and Arcane Devourer in a single go. Kempf had all the prerequisites already.
>look at time
aaaaaand i forgot about VG
All IS had to do is have duo twins for an ez banner, what a waste.
Myrrh and Ephraim would have been insane
Both have already led as duos.
oh right the kiddos banner your right
Alright I’m not mad at the banner just tired. At a very quick glance everyone is still basically the same but made for (insert meta/year) like Myrrh being an armored dragon and Ephriam being an armored Lance. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again give me something different make if they are giving us another Ephriam within 7-8 months make him a magic unit but have him throw the tome at the enemy and have it explode on contact or whatever. At least with everyone else it’s been at least around 1.5 years since their most recent appearance except for Vigarde but he gets a pass as it’s his first alt. But honestly if they wanted Sacred Stones they could have went with the Found family route with Gerik and his group I feel that would work decently enough.
So when is the cure for end turn effects coming out?
So far it's mostly just Seidr/Fomortiis that have it, but it's become really aids, and now Lyon has End turn smoke and the active ability to just end several characters turn on a whim. It just seems like the biggest cancer IS could ever introduce that is only mitigated by how limited it is on units.
And he's done. Sorta, I want to give him No Quarter and maybe a different A skill
>squad assault seal atk/def/res
nice
They really should stop with the "first attack normally means the first hit, but for units that strike twice blah blah blah" stipulation. Just say
>reduces damage from foe's first attacks (including "unit strikes twice") by 40%
what a fricking waste. it shouldve been Joshua and Natasha duo unit. the best canon couple
Next year's desert banner for sure
Jehanna is a desert land, innit
is that like the one desert they havent done yet? maybe we get something cool like ismarie and ascended marisa, assassian dagger unit
Solm is a desert and afaik, so is Claude's homeland. Gaiden also had a desert, but it was a brigand wasteland with no notable characters. Jugdral also has the Yied desert, but it also a wasteland, but for nameless dark mages (maybe they could stretch this one because Isach is pretty close to the desert)
So who won with this refine update?
Bernie, by a long shot followed by Rinkah
>GFU instead of NFU
Bernie is DOA
Definitely not Triandra lmao
Expected of course, but still
Though everyone else got a pretty decent to solid refine
That's my only issue with Bernie's refine, a guaranteed follow-up? When they could have just given her a Flow effect instead, it would've fulfilled the same purpose
>Ephraim, Myrrh, Lyon's billionth alt
>Selena instead of Joshua's mom or some other milf
>Myrrh has a prf skill for some reason
This banner is really mid, soulless units all around
There are so many things wrong that I can't even feel angry or upset at this banner
myrrh has a legendary alt with the same prf so it's only natural
Imma need you to elaborate my fine fellowed Black person
its pretty obvious what he meant
I don't understand. What is supposed to be interesting?
tt seals
isn't the arena ticket update awful because it further dilutes whatever i may have wanted
If you're gunning for something specific, yes
Here's your AHR bros.
It took 7 years, but there's finally a 4th armor unit in the game that I care about. I can finally have an armor team for 10th stratum quests.
What Seals are we getting?
Oh cool
I've given my adult Tiki Dragon's Wrath 4 so I could stack that with another Dragon's Wrath
>Sephiran
Nice, I think I got everyone I wanted off these tickets
Post your first 5 skill inheritance.
Not using atk smoke on him, but while I'm at it may fodder it as well
Forgot the pic
I just need a second Atk/Res Finish fodder to do the same for Sophia.
Oh yeah very nice, welcome to the nuke club.
It's not ideal, but this is the best I could get from this HOF
The skill choices were not kind to me
What were you aiming for? I got an almost identical yield for my Lucy, except I nabbed Assault Troop for a PP oriented playstyle. Distant A/S Solo may not be perfect for Save tank nor Offensive builds, since Distant Dart and Atk/Spd Prime respectively are likely to have an edge over it - but other than that I'm not sure you could've done much better than you have. If anything the problem is that Lucy entered HoF a bit too early, since she doesn't get access to W!Edelgard's special and T4 Save skills aren't even in existence yet. But you gotta make do with what's available. (Lucky for me, I have a spare W!Edelgard lying around but I'll probably feed Lucy Aether to make the most of Gambit. I'll see how that goes.)
I was going for either a meme omnisave tank or just a solid A and C skill in general
> If anything the problem is that Lucy entered HoF a bit too early
Yeah, also the new HOF update would've given us better skills instead of stuff like even def wave 3
Nta but I ended with Petalfall Vase+, Distant A/S Solo, Mystic Boost 4, and Assault Troop, sadly no Gambit 4, not sure if I should redeem, probably not
I do agree that the timing could've been better, I feel like Armoured Blaze would've been great on her at least for the DR
Does anyone happen to know which HoF units we're getting next?
I think the only confirmed unit so far is Female Halloween Corrin, everything else is up in the air.
They usually have matching corrins so HMamui might be on it too, maybe.
IS usually has a demote/4-5star, a grail unit, 5* and now a legendary. Perhaps they won't have HMamui, but I hope they do as mine could use a merge.
can't become lonely in the deeprealms if you have a million twins
Would have preferred getting Emblem Eirika over whatever the frick this banner is, honestly.
>maybe I should roll for Atk/Spd Scowl for Kana
>b8% banner exclusive
I just want to give my dragons good skills, stop making everything so goddamn hard to get. I might just fodder her Halloween father, but this is getting ridiculous.
>want to help kana by killing her dad
She wouldn't appreciate that.
I'm really loving the support he gives just for existing, he honestly made my tanks be able to tank again in AR especially with Mythic Lumera support giving the huge range Divine vein Stone.
>Atk/Spd Ruse 4
???
He already debuffs all stats -6, it's more for the extra penalty effects
Ahh okay. Makes sense now.
Well it is to hit those who weren't hit by the ploy skill since it doesn't have a check. Also the ruse is mostly for the other penalties and not the stat penalty it provides.
Will Ymir or Freyr be able to cleanse Lyon's "frick you, your turn is over" status?
Freyr:
>At start of player phase or enemy phase, if unit is within 2 spaces of an ally, neutralizes any [Penalty] that takes effect on unit or allies within 2 spaces of unit at this time
>>That takes effect
He should be able to clear it
What’s the best self insert
>duo mark with duo preview as Lite mode
>robin/corrin/alear/byleth
>brammimond
>someone already in FEH that shares the same name as you
They’re all +10 btw
Bramimond is the closest thing there is, but whoever looks at your defense would technically see themselves with Eitri.
If that bothers you, go for whatever avatar character you resonate with the most (or your namesake), except Duo Mark since he's a kid, and people who don't have duo backpacks turned off will see Lyn anyway.
I'm being outclassed by harmonic merges, right? or a second harmonic?
roy/eliwood is genuinely the only harmonic I've gone for, and i only have three other harmonics from spooks over time
I think the highest possible score is from using two max merged harmonic units. So, yes, from both merges and a second harmonic.
damn that's rough, but it's not like this mode gives orbs so I'll just take it easy
thanks
You can't pick a kid as your self insert if you're not one anymore, moronbro.
Oh but it’s perfectly fine to pick blue hair red eyes alear? Shut the frick up
You know what, self inserting as a kid might be the right choice for (You), you clearly still act like one.
I was gonna make a joke about you self inserting as Lyon because you sound like a loser but I realize he just boned eirika while you’re still stuck in your moms basement LMFAOOOOOOOOO
>f.kana brought my AA team to ~764
>enemy teams are absolutely dreadful
i regret leaving the comfy 750s
High tier Arena can still be comfy if you have the right units.
Except when they release bullshit like NY!Seidr, she singlehandedly made things 10x worse in the past month for me.
All of you go back to /vg/ please
Not your secret club, little bro
It really likes saying "not YOUR secret club, little bro" a lot whenever this is brought up
Speaking of arena, would five 762 matches be enough to stay in T21? I've got a L!Hector from forever ago and I'd need to beef up his SP kit. Last week required a mix of 766 and 768 matches, but it was also a Version bonus week.
I think 762 is too low. 766 should be safe this week, maybe even 764 but it's hard to predict the cutoff this early.
Last arena week required me getting two 770 and the rest 768 to stay in tier 21. Since this week is all mostly new units save for Hector, Jamke, and Sharena who few built outside of Hector you could get away with maybe doing 766 arena battles.
Last week I did 768 only and was 1300/1800 for staying in. I guess I'll just have to build my Hector and see or I'll ask for ranks on Sunday to see if it's worth trying. At least I won't need to score fish.
More infantry dragonflowers...onegai...
use your celestial stones
you can pretty solidly be t19.5 as f2p, and peeking into t21 every once in a while isn't too far off either
a +10 core can last you a good while, as long as you update their skills somewhat frequently
I already used 600 to get what I was missing for Ike, I still need like 11k.
How do you people earnestly compete in the arena? Do you whale for it? I know I'm absolutely sick of trying to keep up with the powercreep, so I'll forever stay at 18-19.
I just use my faves and cruise in tier 20-21. I wouldn't consider myself a whale since I only buy the FEH pass once in a while. Some weeks are stupid such a L!Camilla and L!Elincia weeks because of warping (most people use oath 4 on Camilla in high tier arena when she is available). I do fit my units out with the best skills if I can acquire it so I can more easily win the battles. Other than that you should save and build up a high scoring unit or at least one broken unit it'll make your life easier in Arena. I currently lug two armor units, a duo unit (flier), and whatever bonus unit we can use for the week.
I do enough to get to Tier 20 (a Legendary and a few scorebots) and since I can't actually stay there I just auto on the easiest difficulty when I'm actually there
I think this is called Tier 19.5, and that's good enough for me
You don't even need a legendary for 19.5, just three +10 756 scoring units (AKA, any unit with a Duel 4 skill and maxed SP kit) and then any bonus unit with at least 240s in all their passives. Reminder that stuff like Escape Route and Wings of Mercy are 240 SP and Drive Attack is 240 SP, no way you don't have a thousand Echidna or Cecilia manuals lying around.
I only do good in arena because I save up orbs for my favorites, they almost never get alts so I end up spending them on +10 legendaries I like when they happen to colorshare.
Now I have 2 legendaries at max merges per season, I'd like to move on to mythics and emblems but I barely like any of them.
Most legendaries (see: lords) are going to get Emblems. Which legendaries did you +10 if you have that many that aren't lords?
Here's all of them. The few that do show up as emblems don't even have their own ring lmao (and I don't really like spaghetti hair Dimitri anyway).
I'd roll for emblem Eirika though, I love her outfit.
Good stuff, anon. It's impressive to see that many merged 8% units.
I managed to stay in T20.5 for now with a +10 L!Eirika and recently a +10 L!Ephraim I managed to save for as a F2P, but I wouldn't recommend it. Probably only a matter of time until I drop.
Once a year I do a full circle merge run on a Mythic banner (okay I've only tried this twice). Pic related, I stopped since I wasn't really hot on Deirdre. But I use the Nerthuz and Shez for my arena core and I've been able to get to T21 every now and then when the bonus units line up. I would have maintained this week in T21, but I used Deidre and should have opted for a +10 unit instead.
>Lumera has the specific vein needed to counter Lilina
Veins are the worst design choice in this game so far, this pisses me off to no end.
I think that turn ending effects are worse.
aren't the only direct aoe counters gotoh and stone vein?
ririna can't just run free forever
Also Winter Byleth
Are Flared Sparrow and Occultist's Strike available for you? Might bridge the damage gap.
You need to use the most optimal Lilina build, AoE isn't anymore. Special is Glacies
It's funny just how much stronger Glacies/Ignis are than Iceberg/Bonfire.
When is the next Hero Merit increase?
Anyone?
I don't remember when it is normally increased but iirc I think it is done every CYL so around August/September.
i finally got someone i wanted from arena tickets aaaaa
Same, just pulled a Mamori merge after 2 straight months of bad pulls (gen 1 units) off of green.
There we go, I just had to damage her a bit with an AoE on a nearby unit, still pretty moronic. Also, I now can't take advantage of the Fury SS for WoM because she now has Finish.

Don't let a silly comment stop you
yeah its a shame how homosexuals ruined Soren. Is such a cool character before the gayification.
I got quints because I’m right.
What are the chances they'll rerun the beach background sometime this summer? Surely they wouldn't run it just once and then mothball it forever, would they? And why are these cosmetics timegated anyway? Just allow me to fork over those 10 bucks dammit.
i don't think a single background or castle layout has ever been rerun
they exist to fomo people into buying them
But I genuinely want that background for my summer units and I can't possibly be the only one. Sure, the price tag, such as is for a basic feature like that, is pretty much a ripoff, so Fomo surely helps to sell it at that price point. But at least the backgrounds come bundled with a bunch of orbs, so whatever. It feels like they're just leaving money on the street by timegating this stuff.

What's wrong with it?
Nothing really, I just thought it was kinda interesting, we have three characters and they've all been paired together as a Duo Hero at one point or another.
It's cute, I like them being inseparable though I'm still hoping for a Julius/Loptous and Lyon/Fomortiis duo
When will Julius get a duo with his sister?
That'd be nice, like a Young Jugdral banner with a pre-possession Julius and Julia duo
Too bad it will be gen 1 only
Hel resplendents not having the bones visible through the glowing segments really killed them for me.
Yeah, they're just costumes but it's lame.
that's why we need the thrasir alt that they're so scared to come up with

Soon to be negated by precombat healing.
Like a reverse Fatal Smoke where you can't be damaged by anything outside of combat except from self-inflicted ones like push skills or Bernie's refine
The more disgustingly frustrating he is to play against, the better. Maybe Lyon's bullshit is what finally sets me free from this kusoge. I've been fed up with the insane power"creep" for months now, but I still need that final push to overcome the sunk cost fallacy holding me in its stranglehold.
This is fine.
I fricking hate it here
I just hope the counter to this mechanic is an inheritable skill rather than stuck to a single unit's Prf.
It'll be a Duo skill, actually!
Worse.
A Mythic OC.
crying and shitting and pissing and maybe cumming
may i remind you of our direct counters to save units?
Green beats red and blue beats green, you should know this by now.

Oh boy, I can't wait to see what special event IS will do for paralogue 100 to commemorate the occasion.
for those wondering the seal from squad assault 79 is atk/def/res +3
There goes 450 sacred seals in an instant. It feels like you're forced to spend Celestial Stones on seals if you want to upgrade old seals now that Squad Assault seals are worth upgrading.
>upgrade atk/spe ideal and the assault seal
>forgot to save for dragon ire
FRICK
pulling as many selenas as I can and giving her red tome to all my red mages
At least they made the TT map easy enough to avoid getting initiated on by Lyon. A horse with Canto in slot 3 will attack the armor unit and Canto out of Lyon's range, then most likely target Lyon on turn 2 without anyone having to get nuked by him.
>https://twitter.com/1000FEH/status/1755135833731105267
>not even been a month
>Altina is already useless
Yeah, that is just gonna happen pretty much every new batch of units. FEH has hit the death spiral of powercreep, where everything is so bullshit that the next set of things has to be so much stronger than it to actually function that the previous units become more or less worthless.
For real, how do you salvage FEH at this point? Any time I see returning players talk about the game, it's only about how they want to turn tail straight away after seeing how hopelessly outclassed their old units are. And how does FEH expect to gain fresh blood when every skill and every weapon is an intimidating wall of text that has five layers of bullshit hidden within? Is anyone among the devs giving any thought to this problem at all?
What I find especially funny is how those anniversary maps with the lvl 5 opponents are really the perfect illustration of the ludicrous skill bloat. The enemy units have nothing equipped except for their prf weapons, and yet that alone is almost enough to hand them a skillset that would be solid on many units from the mainline games. Send out a team of lvl 5 year one shitters in an attempt to clear and they'll get curbstomped in two turns max.
I'm even willing to accept that some degree of powercreep is inevitable, but it has never been as bad before as it has been over the last year. And maybe the situation would still be palatable if you could at least bring old units more easily up to speed as a returning player, but that's borderline if not outright impossible. Just the dearth of dragonflowers alone will frick you over and that's not even getting into fresh bullshit like attuned skills and emblems which are even harder to get your hands on. It's almost as if every new game design decision is trying to answer the question of how to best scare away new and returning players and bleed the playerbase dry.
>how do you salvage FEH at this point?
we are, as another anon put it, death spiraling thanks to unchecked moronic dev powercreep
(me)
you dont its unsalvageable at this point*
Let's say for the sake of argument you're given the position of director for FEH. You get mostly free reign, however you're not permitted to roll anything back what's already in the game and your main objective is to just stop losing players. You may fiddle with the monetization scheme too, but the game is supposed to still turn a profit to whatever extent it does right now. What do you do?
>get a new character from SHSR tickets
>get a dupe of them several times afterwards
feels like ass
myrrh cute
Between the 4* SHSR tickets and the GHBs I've actually run out of level up crystals for the first time ever
Jesus fricking christ it's been like two months and they already made a map that's more cancerous than the winter 3H lords one
How the frick do you justify making a unit that straight up chips off 3/4 HP before the combat even starts
Thank God Duo!Thorr exists and can blast through Myrrh's moronic damage reduction
>984k feathers
>nothing to promote
Give me more Eties, Lapises and Laras. I used to spend excess feathers on Cordelias for Galeforce fodder, but I'm just about out of Cordelias also.
This, but I don't care about any demotes they've shit out lately. Guess I'll start merging up some old grails
Lean hard into FEH Pass. Move auto start to normal gameplay, add sparking to Special Heroes, but add the "spark every focus hero" to every banner if you sub to FEH Pass and also bonus tickets for every New/Special/8% banner, AND ALSO add even more stuff to consecutive months subbed (1 Celestial Stone every consecutive month you're subbed, Floret every 3, etc). Then update the Stone Shop to have more stuff you could want.
Basically give every incentive to keep summoning you can possibly give. The more people spending orbs means the less f2p orbs they'll have on the things they really want, which leads to spending on banners. People subbed to FEH Pass is just bonus money.
Am I moronic, or do you think this is viable?
Not that anon, but I typed out a massive response and at the end I realized that it didn't frick a goddamn thing. I can't fricking do it. At best it froze the game at its currently already broken state. Because all of the shit I can think of to bring old units up to modern stat and skill standards doesn't fricking fix the problem. There is not really any way of freezing the absurd creep of how skills work, and even if I did it would just freeze it at its currently fricking busted state where some units are just gonna be better than others forever. Does it even matter if I say "you can no longer make skills that directly counter other skills" when that just leaves the current set of overpowered nonsense overpowered nonsense forever? Stopping them from releasing skills with more text than exist on currently existing skills doesn't stop those skills that currently exist from being a problem.
I genuinely don't think this is a problem that can be fixed at this point.
I suppose it is inevitably the problem with a gacha game with some amount of PVP content where players have to pit their units against each other. Truth is, it was probably fricked from the start, it just took them a while to get to the point where it was really unrecoverable. If there exists any kind of FEH that is a sustainable game, it probably just needs to focus on single player content and keep players going by releasing more fanservice stuff.
>Does it even matter if I say "you can no longer make skills that directly counter other skills" when that just leaves the current set of overpowered nonsense overpowered nonsense forever?
I figure that the obvious loophole for "can't roll back overpowered nonsense" would be to make it tournament illegal. As in, the worst skills are plainly banned from PvP modes. It's not an unusal measure for trading card games to ban the most busted cards from tournaments and ranked play. Theoretically IS could do the same, disregarding the fact that they deliberately introduce broken skills as a way to lure the p2w whales into spending money and would risk to piss off those same whales by taking away their ability to pay their way to victory.
Yeah, I suppose that is fair. But if their goal is to make money, I highly doubt that it would be a good idea to ban the characters people would spend money on in the only game modes you actually need that kind of power for.
I mean, in the end it's a tradeoff between steady income over a long time period and making big bucks off whales for a short time. If TCGs like Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon can run for decades on end, then potentially so could FEH. But that would require that IS gets a grip on their short sighted greed already. TCGs have powercreep too in order to incentivize people to buy the newest expansions, but not to this extent. They still try to keep a semblance of game balance because they know that scaring off all the casuals is not a winning strategy in the long term.
Part of the thing about card games is that rotating selections of options have been inherit to them since the start. Magic had a system for rotating out old cards almost as soon as the idea of new cards came into existence. Magic players and the like are used to it, so they are able to get rid of old cards without much fuss, plus everybody knows that there are formats where they can keep playing their favorite old cards if they want.
Gacha has no such precedent. If they try it now they risk invoking the autistic wrath of gacha players who have never had to deal with that before. FEH kind of tried it with the year 1-3 (?) restricted summoner duels, but that mode is even more dead than normal summoner duels.
We already have a rotating selection, it's just not the units who get rotated but the skills. Thanks to inheritance there is no reason that you should need to discard your old favorite characters entirely. In this analogy, it's the skills which are the cards and the specific characters are almost like card sleeves. The problem is plainly that the rotation in FEH is too fricking fast and too extreme. Show me one TCG where every single month they release new cards which effectively turn your old ones into fancy tinder? Normally you can expect to have a card remain viable for a year or so. But most anything released by FEH just a few months ago is already flaming garbage. Everyone knows this is unsustainable except for IS it seems.
Hey guys, I don't know who needs to hear this right now, but Duo Lyon's turn ending mechanic persists between turns in Summoner Duels, and also effects units that have already taken an action during your turn, carrying over the Nightmare effect into the next turn.
hahahahahahahahahahahaha
Fricking lamo. Honestly that might be the most intsys has ever fricked something up in FEH.
Yep, and because it's gacha, we have to just live with it!
His prf A skill would have been too easy to counter if you could just have your fastest unit act first, makes sense.
His duo button has no business being that cracked though.

Yeah
Do the japs enjoy the state this game is in? Are they having fun? Maybe this semen slurping game design just isn't for a baka gaijin like me.
Last I read on 2ch was some Japanons not understanding how Potent worked lol
I genuinely dont understand how they think its okay to release something like this
I thought his end then smoke only worked on the enemy with the highest speed. Did I misread it? Who the frick thought that was an okay ability?
That enemy team was set up so all the units have the same speed.
It always feels nice having your first AR defense after updating it result in a Success.
Agreed, but what usually happens after is that every attacker after somehow all have the exact counter to your defense so now the initial success looks like a fluke. And now you are unable to tell if your defense sucks or you got unlucky with all the battles after the first.
I just noticed I have no duo units on my defense so duo's hindrance isn't doing anything. I think that's a dumb requirement for the structure to function.
>No duo dancer
Hmmmm
On the one hand, SD will be less dead when the moronic win grinders flood it. On the other, I inch closer to 300 every time the favor increases and I'd like to hit max sometime without grinding them out.
I got both Myrrh and Lyon in 35 orbs so I'm actually going to go ahead and say these units are based and healthy, actually
>can't enemy phase Lyon because he just denies your counter then shreds through your entire HP bar before attacking
>there is no counterplay to that
>can't player phase Ephraim or Myrrh because they're just designed to actually still be enemy phase tanks in this day and age
>by way of super unpierceable damage reduction
>all three also destroy whatever lame pierceable damage reduction you may rely on, either entirely (Ephraim) or by half (the other two)
Hahaha..... this sucks, man
Just summon Lyon to defeat Myrrh, fricking idiot
bro your W!yunaka or N!sanaki????
Myrrh dies the same way Byleth does, AoE specials.
I flashed her then hit her with a unit with no quarter she died fairly easily.
She's like 10, why would you flash her
How would you design a Armour March/Stride 4?
>armored march
No clue. Perhaps jut letting armor units warp to other armor units within range. Warping is common now so it wouldn't be that big of a deal.
>stride
If unit moves max distance, enemy save effects don't apply, or just give it canto 1.
both would probably have some stat bonuses as that seems to be the norm now.
>Amor Schmove 4
If number of adjacent non armor allies <= 1, unit can move +1 space and gets [Charge]
If number of adjacent armor allies >= 1, unit can move +1 space and gets [Charge]
Armors are just better Infantry, after all
Sorry, for the March part of it, I meant to say unit and all adjacent armored units get move+1 and [Charge]
>Armors are just better Infantry, after all
Well currently they're the worse infantry and can't even bulwark lmao
STILL baffling how Bulwark is an infantry skill when it seems tailor made for armors. They're supposed to be the ones who can hold chokepoints.
>March
Armor ally within two spaces (like Oath 4)
>Stride
2 or fewer adjacent allies (like Alarm)
And like +4 Def/Res for good measure
Oh, I got Spring Est today. I think she's pretty good, she got a weapon refine a while ago and it's got Canto and inflicts Exposure.
>enemy w.byleth, w.edel, l.hinoka, m.gullveig, b.soren, and d.altina
no thank you
>been holding onto arcane downfall for a year, but jade never released
>now vigarde's weapon contends it
i remember last year when i thought effie/hana had surprisingly good inheritables, i guess day of devotion continues that tradition
I'm thinking of giving it to my Shez even though she's perfectly set with Arcane Thrima, just as a treat
Even if it's Atk/Def focused, it's a bit hard to pass up on the free damage
>best paralogue first try without using heaven blessing
huh
Got Ephraim on my free roll, so I decided to do this, even if it wasn't a particularly smart move. But now I'm at a loss at what her best b skill would be, since armor b skills kinda suck because of all of the overlap
Special spiral 4 for DR pierce and keeping armored blaze active would be a good option
Thanks anons, found out that I had an extra Ced that spooked me, so I gave her SS4
Weaving Fighter would be a good start, whenever Winter Byleth appears again; Vengeful Fighter 4 would also be fine
Otherwise I second the other anon, go with Special Spiral 4 so you can at least DR pierce
Did Fomortiis have the ability to shut down a unit's action or movement in Sacred Stones or something? I'm guessing that's what his Nightmare and now Lyon's bullshit is a reference to
Yeah, Fomortiis has a weapon called Nightmare that can put to sleep all nearby units.
Lyon had nothing of the sort though.
he also basically never used it lmao. or rather getting him to use it was a bit tricky
>had to spark to get one single copy of the unit I wanted
>again
>while being pitybroken by TWO Ascended Legyarn and Celica
At least I now have an extra floret, but this is getting old.
I feel your pain. I really wanted to get some Valentine's Lucina merges, so I made sure to target Green as much as I could. Which cost me a lot in orbs too, since a suspicious number of circles had either just one green option or, of course, none at all. I suspect I ended up somewhere at 4.75 orbs/roll, but I might as well not have bothered since the spark is all I got. I'm halfway convinced that IS deploys an algorithm which makes an educated guess what you're rolling for and then makes sure to deny it to you. And worst of all, even a fully invested Lucina would hardly be able to compete with the cancer they just shat out for this year's Valentine, so why do they have to make it such a colossal pain in the ass to get more merges of her? Why the 3% base rate for a unit I just want to use out of personal affection rather than for esports homosexualry? I fricking hate IS and their petty homierdliness.
>And worst of all, even a fully invested Lucina would hardly be able to compete with the cancer they just shat out for this year's Valentine, so why do they have to make it such a colossal pain in the ass to get more merges of her?
I just compared my +7 +25 DFs Fallen Tiki with my now new neutral uninvested Valentine Myrrh. Myrrh completely humilliates Tiki in everything except HP by just 4 points, and Spd which Myrrh doesn't care about, all while having a WAY better prf and exclusive C skill. Looking at older units is just demoralizing at this point because it doesn't even matter if we have Arcane weapons when now newer units are coming with exclusive ABC skills that make them competely superior to every single similar unit before them.
>I really wanted to get some Valentine's Lucina merges, so I made sure to target Green as much as I could. Which cost me a lot in orbs too, since a suspicious number of circles had either just one green option or, of course, none at all
NTA but same
I was at 7% with the next 5* being a guaranteed banner unit and for about 10 summons I got nothing but blue and colorless, not a single green. Shit was so nerve-wracking because I was afraid I would accidentally summon Grima/Owain.
>algorithm to stop you
No it's just poor luck. That shit happens here and there. Technically with it being a computer it's not supposed to be pure and natural rng, but an actively hostile algorithm seems unlikely when IS can hardly get descriptions correct.
You wouldn't get it
Well, I guess I wouldn't, I'm not Sharena
mental illness
who decided to put overlapping saves in front of nukes in the paralogue
i would like to have a word with them
I couldn't beat the paralogue with my faves. Not a ghost of a chance. They all get one-rounded by almost anything on the map. PP, EP, doesn't matter. Had to resort to christmas cancer to get my two miserable orbs. Maybe it's time to uninstall.
I used to beat every story chapter and paralogue with the Askr Trio + free unit of the banner. I think I gave up after the Ashe book, it just got out of control.
>going into that paralogue with the Askr trio and one poverty unit
The mere thought is sending shivers down my spine
how does potent feel on anyone but marth?
i feel like i may be overestimating it because marth just gets to max his potent hits
I haven't had all that much difficulty killing Myrrh honestly. Makes me wonder why I rolled for her though.
I know exactly why I rolled for her. Because she's cute.
Merlinus actually ended up being a decent way to deal with Lyon. He has a ton of HP and extremely low attack which mitigates his precombat damage pretty significantly.
just wait for the dagger equivalent of vigarde's axe and selena's tome
Yeah, I'll probably replace Arcane Void with that when it comes out. Precombat damage actually makes a lot of sense for weak units like him.
>impulsively go for say'ri for fodder, and get extremely lucky
>end up finding her kinda cute
goddammit
Congratulations on your JP wife.
I kind of wish they just kept her speaking JP in the ENG version as it was a funny bug.
i'm spoiled by other games having appropriate accents in EN
but at least bridal say'ri has really interesting enunciation
homazo more than made up for yura's base art
How? You can land bombers on her forehead
Not him, Bridal Sayri looks good and the outfit is really pretty IMO. This year had some nice bridal outfit designs. I'd be tempted to roll for her if I had the orbs to spare.
Updating my AR teams for the first time in years, who are the current best dedicated supports for an omnitank if I want to be dumb and see how far I can take an old favorite EP unit in AR-O? Haven't kept up with Mythics or new staff units so I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch.
Current thoughts are:
>LWeed for Bonus Doubler/Null Panic still in 2024
>FMaria for the revive
>Riev or something to control mov bullshit
>A dancer (one of the fairies probably best still?)
>Seasonal mythic in extra slot
then inherit a Ploy 3 to whichever support here has the highest Res and stack in-combat support C slots on the rest.
I have both Flayns too but 30% DR seems low or just pierced by everything these days, and I assume there are better carry supprt staffs these days (Tina maybe?).
>omnitank
lol
Nothing can enemy phase anymore unless you're specifically an armor unit from this current banner or the Winter banner from about two months ago
Yeah, I'm painfully aware from trying to use these old tanks in any new story/TT/VG
Was hoping they could enemy phase slightly less modern AR teams at least with a full team of supports behind them, even if I'm expecting Maria's revive to do most of the heavy lifting
Right, forgot he existed next to Weed, could try making space for him. Are those two handing out bonus doublers still really some of the best we can get in current year?
I use Kaden a lot. Atk/Spd+6, Def/Res+8, Guard.
YES
YES
FINALLY AHHHHH
Congratulations, don't forget the free merge in the TP section. do you plan on building her?
Congrats, anon. Happy for you, what's her count at?
Good stuff anon, congrats
I think I should prioritize +10'ing my Floreted units so the Florets feel worth it. Was this part of IS's plan? Am I falling for it?
No?
Do you like your floreted units? +10ing is a meme, and with all the extra shit from catch up mechanics like florets/attuned X slots and now emblems, it is way too hard to max it all out. It's really just used to shitpost, or show off if you aren't some whale going for high tiers. If you think you would get joy out of spoiling those units then go for it, but if you wouldn't then don't worry about it.
I do the opposite, where I just only floret my +10 units.
>summer tana from ticket
>hot as frick, want to build her
>no resources
Just roll for a VSelena and give her the weapon, that’s what I did
Summer Tana is a contender for sexiest art in the game
Hate to say it, but omnitanking is dead. My +10 Special 4 Henriette doesn't get the job done anymore... And she's even running Armored Beacon + Eclipse. It's more of a rarity to be able to tank things, and the two best Far Save tanks are Brave Corrin and Winter Byleth. If you're dead set on it, I'd suggest only running Offense Fortress, Escape Ladder, and bonus structure so you only need to bait one unit on Turn 1. If you have to tank two enemies, pray the second doesn't double and you won't need to rely on Maria's revive more than once.
Moment of truth soon, will they increase the number of max wins from 300 to 400 when we'll hit 4000 favors?
Who did you give your free floret to?
I'm thinking of using it on base F!Morgan, but her build is pretty crunchy right now. If I had Arcane Euphoria, I'd give it to her, but then I'd want to overhaul her kit anyway and just don't have anything in mind.
No one
Gonna save them for now since it seems like ascendent are getting rarer and rarer.
They should put 1 of these things on the celestial stones shop
I'm not sure, honestly
Brave Chrom, Brave Marth, Brave Tiki, Winter Yunaka, Summer Shez, there's a lot I could choose from
I now have four florets so I'm seriously considering giving one to Ike, who's just 2 merges away from full investment. If only Genny could get a Resplendent soon, I'd be able to bring back my old Dream Team.
I always forget about these. I used one on Valentines Owain who was like my first seasonal merge project I could afford due to him being a demote. He just got fricking absolutely juiced too because of the HoF. The other one I used was on Hans because lol lmao full investment damage reflection rapist. I should ascend a Fae I got from binding worlds. Absolute fricking monster with rating of 259. If I end up using one it would probably be on my second best boy baby Marth after his HoF, refine, and having had merged him from his demote status.
Post high rating units as someone who used to be F2P for the longest time I imagine that people like dolphins or even whales have 300 rating seasonal armors or something just because they can.
Just got Arcane Euphoria
Who should i give it to
euphoria is better for low speed, high attack units. So whichever one of your units that meets that criteria that you like best.
Marianne
L'Arachel, Morgan, Lute, Linde, Lute (forma de summer), Tailtiu, and Brunya need it most as they are all either prflets or have awful prfs. Pick your favorite amongst them.
marianne
Is Summer Ingrid gonna get a refine this year? I got her, but the whole once-per-phase effect is really lame
August or so
dubs decide who I used dragon flowers one
I don't really care.
Nyx
Canas
Ilyana
alright I have 4000 left. who else?
Joshua for his rad hat
Knoll
he only needed 5, he was already at 15/20
but done.
bramimiond
soren, he’s +10 anyway go all out
Still Nyx
Canas
>100 orbs
>not a single Valentine's Selena
b***h I WANT YOUR TOME AS A GIFT FOR SPRING SEVERA
Sorry to hear that, anon. I got her in 9 summons at 4*
Legendary Ninian is returning this month. Who're her best teammates for arena?
Anyone that gives her "unit cannot be slowed by terrain" for the few arena maps with trenches
Can't go wrong with Cyril, he scores well and it's always good to have an archer in Arena,especially in water season because he easily deletes L!Camillas on PP. At max investment he can also reliably kill tanky stuff like brave Corrin.
The other teammate should be a blue unit, preferably melee so you can benefit from the score boost of the DC seal. Arion should be pretty good even if you aren't running other fliers on the team and thanks to his prf he sort of has 3 mov like Ninian.
I think I’ll use duo Lyon as my self insert.
Self inserting is cringe
It’s part of my dream.
They’re all +10
Here's your VG
WE AVOIDED THE THREE EDELGARD IN THE TOP 8 TIMELINE? FRICK YEAH!
Kind of expected/10
The only units I don't have are Claude or Sanaki, so I'd hope they win, but I can't say no to any of the others I guess
>Want Winter Edelgard's fodder
>Also want her to lose in the first round again
Curse this human heart
>Sanaki is the only red unit
GOD PLEASE SHE NEEDS TO MAKE IT TO TOP 4
>came up with a build recently that needs no quarter
>didn't grab one
>will now have a chance to, or maybe even for free
not bad
Can we get another all green meme dream banner?
Potentially
But IS will probably nip that thought in the bud.
Yeah that's fair, they'll probably put them all competing against each other
Man, that banner was such great value.
Are AHR banners 3% or higher?
Looks like Edelgard's the only one I'd hate to get since her fodder is shit. Claude's a close second, but at least I already have a unit in mind on who I'd give Atk/Spd Prime to.
Watch as some shit units like Claude, Altina or Alear wins this because of multiplier spam
Altina (and Byleth) aren't in this I don't think. It should just be the top 8.
I only have edelgard, dimitri and alear out of these 8, so im content with the results so far, hope those 3 i mentioned fall off in the first round of vg so i can get the most out of this banner
Got everyone but Alear and Claude, so fingers crossed either of them win. I'd also take Peony, and I guess Dimitri for fodder. Was hoping for a free W!Byleth though.
Hmm, I want Christmas Edelgard, but Attuned Peony is good...
>everyone ends up with Winter Edelgard or Legendary Camilla
>have to deal with either even more than I already do
YAAAAMEEERRROOOO
how are you not seeing them everywhere already, they're basically omnipresent
in fact if they win it'd be a good thing, because IS usually releases direct counters to the AHR winner right afterwards
>Edelgard wins
>IS releases a counter for veins
>Camilla wins
>IS releases a counter for pre battle damage
Guess it's time to dump all my votes on Camilla
imagine if they released a galeforce/raging storm counter instead
What would that even entail? "If foe within 4 spaces of unit gets an extra action, action ends immediately" or something?
Sounds like a new Lyon/Fomortiis is on the way
Man, that really is how it is huh.
The AHR is just picking what strategy gets nerfed hardest.
>pick winners so IS makes shit to counter them
I don't even remember Fomortiis being that good but they sure released a shitton of nukes that eat him alive.
I'm fine with fomortis getting eviscerated to be honest. His effect is just super fricking obnoxious.
And now we have an even more obnoxious "end action" effect in its place
Stuff like that makes me wonder if they shit up FEH on purpose or accident. "Everyone has access to a new shiny unit, better make counters" and them accidentally overcorrecting is as possible to me as them doing it to frick with us
It's IS so by accident through sheer moronation
Okay, Camilla's gotta win then
Because countering the as-combat-starts damage means an answer to Lyon
I guess I shouldn't use Trait Fruits on my -Atk Camilla if it means possibly getting a merge for her soon
Intisys should rework the entire game.
Surprised we got another brave unit as a resplendent and so soon.
Her original art wasn't the best but this looks kinda bland
I better get Nifl Hector or my autism will act up
Cool, ig
something about this art does feel pretty lackluster
embla's always a nice one to get at least
Love her face in this art, but I kinda wish they kept her brave pose instead of her default hand on chest pose…
>18 events
>only 1 event active over the last 2 days and it's an autobattle one
Sure is boring in FEHland right now.
My wife
What are your plans for each potential winner?
>edelgard
Shit. Would probably just give Def/Res Ploy to my base Sanaki or something.
>camilla
I'd probably hold onto Deadly Miasma to give to Hortensia whenever she gets in.
>alear
Atk/Spd Pledge to e-girl Mia
>gullveig
Flared Sparrow/Occultist's Strike to Duo Linde probably.
>dimitri
No Quarter to my Attuned Peony and toss that around since I still have a few unmerged copies.
>sanaki
Keep and use.
>claude
Atk/Spd Prime to e-girl Mia
>peony
Just another dupe to add to the collection.
Please don't let Edelgard win. What is it with her and all her alts having garbage for inheritable fodder?
I just want 2 Sanakis to feed her A skill to my legendary and bride Ririnas
>Edelgard
I'll see if anyone can get all her fodder at once but it doesn't seem likely, so that's probably a merge
>Camilla
Merge so I can get rid of my -Atk bane on mine, or I could just fodder that one off and keep the new one, depending on who can use her skills well enough
>Alear
Fodder to... someone, I'm sure someone could put her stuff to great use, since I already have a copy
>Gullveig
Exact same deal as above
>Dimitri
No Quarter to Brave Marth, then I'll pull the trigger and go all out and give him NCD4 and Time's Pulse 4 so he can Vantage, DR pierce, and get past counter denial all at once since I also have Emblem Marth
I already have Dimitri anyway, and even without merges he's just absurd
>Sanaki
I don't have her, so I'll keep her and try her out, see just how strong she is
>Claude
Same as above
>Peony
Give Atk Oath Echo to one of my Shez
Armored Blaze to Cervantes
Dunno, Camilla's shit sucks (comparatively)
A/S Pledge to Joshua maybe
Occultist's Strike to Gharnef
No Quarter to Ashnard/Walhart
Dunno about Sanaki, already have one
Lethality (and Prime) to Ass Joshua
Echo skill to Ashnard
Wait. I think Babby Ike wants Pledge more. He gets it
I don't think winter edelgard has bad fodder, specially compared to the ones before. With the 5 skill inheritance you can get atk/def prime + armored blaze/def res ploy 3 all in one go, which is pretty good for building a merge project armor for pve (specially if you pair it with something like nabata hawkeye's lance or wind fuga's club)
Peony to Validar
I'll probably just keep them around to be honest
>Edelgard and Camilla
Use since i don't have them
>Alear
Already have a +spd copy so probably fodder
>Gullveig
Fodder for Zephia
>Dimitri
Fodder for AFir
>Sanaki
Already have a copy so fodder for the ploy skill
>Peony
Fodder and use.
>Claude
Bench or occasional use
>Edelgard
D/R Ploy 4 to someone
>Camilla
Throw her on someone for duplication for Deadly Miasma and Remote Sparrow
>Alear
If I manage to get two more after this one, I'd have a +10 Alear from L!Cam summoning so two +10 Legendaries would feel pretty powerful. I don't really use that many Infantry so her fodder is pretty much not that useful for me
>Gullveig
Throwing her on someone for duplication. I need more Flared and Occultist's Strike. I want to give Occultist's Strike to Adrift Camilla to make her a mini L!Camilla
>Dimitri
Would probably give NQ to base or NY Cam
>Sanaki
See: Edelgard. I already got one and foddered her to Peony for all of her skills, so maybe I'd actually use this O e
>Claude
Got one as my free anniversary summon, haven't leveled him yet. I can't think of who I'd want to use Prime on.
>Peony
Would immediately give Soaring Guidance + all of Sanaki's skills to Adrift Camilla
That map is obnoxious, the enemy rarely ever actually lands on the ONE non defense tile.
>Finally level new armors from banner and try using them to bait Lyon
>He melts them like butter just like anyone else
Man, I fully expect IS to make their every new unit obsolete one month later, but at least have the damn decency to have your tanks survive going at least one (1) round with the guy who releases right next to them
Have patience man
In a couple of months they'll have released so many counters and units that powercreep him, we won't even remember Lyon had a valentines alt
This fight was cancer. Having to fight the 2 strongest tanks in the game at max investment on defense tiles was not fun. First time I had to use items in AA in like a year.
This may be a thing only I care about but why haven't they uped the barrack space by now? Max is 1100 spaces and we've already reached 1000+ heroes already. I'll gladly spend a few orbs to increase my barrack space if they do implement more space, I'm kinda tired of having to go put any extras in my reserves/turning them into manuals.
Also I should be able to search for skills/units in my barracks AND reserves at the same time, theres no reason I should have to search for skills to no avail in skill inheritance, exit the inherit menu, open my reserves, search there, then transfer the unit I want out, especially with 1000+ units. Manuals take up no space yet I can still search them up without going back and forth through the barracks and reserves
I'm just waiting for HM to increase to 10k and at that point I'm going to assume that's the highest it'll go and finally kill off all my fodder into manuals after capping their HM even if I only have 1 copy of them. I'm looking forward to all the space I'll be getting.
there certainly aren't 1000 useful characters, i haven't had any problems by putting anyone with useless fodder/gameplay into reserves instead
I'm going to build NY Kana for Fates LHBs since I have almost no Fates units. Thanks for reading my blog.
Got a build in mind?
A budget as frick one since she's not a favorite. Probably something like this.
Maybe go with an Oath of some kind, even if it's just a budget Oath
That way you can have Ideal active with the stat buff, even when injured
Kaden is one of the couple Fates units I have and I usually have him with a LInk skill, so she'll be getting stat buffs from him.
see
Even a wave skill might be slightly better because of the synergy and team buff.
Budget? That's poverty level build.
This my dream build (assume ATK/SPD Bulwark 4 is there instead)
For you, at least run... frick me, what can you put on there?
nta but i'm considering giving her my Lumera for atk/spd scowl
It seems like her best skill since her res is pretty high
>have to use Vigarde as the bonus unit next week
Fug
>it's a demote week for me
phew
>there's like 7 different characters i want in green
>get my fifth and sixth spring chroms instead, all of which have been spooks over the years
Build him. You might have fun.
>winter marth
Just you wait. Once Daring Fighter 4 becomes the best fighter skill, I'll be the one laughing.
Isn't his weapon refine kind of alright though? Since tanking is out of the window for Far Saves, he can at least Vantage 'em if he meets the Spd check
with the damage mitigation in play it depends on who is attacking. at base +10/+25 he sits at 65 spd if all his effects are in play, before buffs and skills are included. he will will 59 atk if a spd boon is used so it depends on how much of a glass cannon the attacker is or if they have a sweep effect.
It's that time again, Binding Worlds!
So to help out those who want a built unit I got several units you guys could choose from for the proxy. Just state which one and skills. Due to only being able to set one it'll have be whoever chooses first gets to pick proxy this time.
>Solon
Arcane Eclipse, Flare, Swift Sparrow 3(sorry game won't hand out a finish skill to me), Special Spiral 4, and Time's pulse 4.
>Kempf
Arcane Devourer, No Quarter, Flared Sparrow, Assassin's strike, and Fatal smoke 4.
>Halloween Rhea
Arcane Grima, Aether, A/R Scowl 4, Dragon Wall 3, and Panic Smoke 4.
>Halloween Duo Sothis
Arcane Grima, Harsh Command +, Blue Flame, A/S Unity (also A/S Catch 4 if you guys prefer that), Counter Roar 4, and Guidance 4 (alternatives are A/S hold and Speed smoke 4).

Arcane Grima, Rally up Res+, Aether, Distant Pressure, Savvy Fighter 4, and Speed Smoke 4(or A/S near save 3).
Where's my Summer Oliver? I'm begging you, IS, he's my favorite unit
Oliver is already perfect, no alt can improve on what is already Divine.
True, however I'd like two Olivers so I can bask in two perfect lights. Plus I'm saving a bunch of fodder for a perspective alt
I miss Veronica

>soren resplendent
>he's still talking about Ike
I fricking hate it here and I fricking hate you homosexuals
Only one more free seasonal summon right?
yes, last map tomorrow
I'm gonna miss 'em, even though 95% of them were duds, giving my units random, useless weapons and skills just for the heck of it, is nice
I got one decent unit out of it all though at least with Spring Est, so it wasn't all that bad
New heroes banner when?
In 2 weeks, and then I think Easter is 2 weeks after that
>In 2 weeks
What, that can't be right. I'm talking about the banner that comes with the new story chapter, with rearmed/attuned/ascended (lol) heroes plus a few other schmucks who get added to the general summoning pool.
We just got Valentine's the other day and banners happen every 2 weeks.
Is this her best build, or does she want something else?
is duo mark going to be cucked on a 4 blue shared focus? would it be better to wait for his revival?
maybe? It might be worth rolling just up to the spark. you might get lucky and snag a few extra for cheap.
Gonna use fruits on my -Spd Rearmed Lucina. Should I go with +Atk or +Spd?
Always speed. It's much more likely for a few points of extra speed to make a difference, especially with R!Lucina currently having the highest base speed of any unit in the game.
(Exceptions prove the rule of course. Ploy users might prefer Res over Spd, etc. But that's not relevant for Lucina and tons of other speedsters.)
Honestly wouldn't recommend traiting a Rearmed hero until they are max merged otherwise if you decide to fodder off them later you'd be required to merge the traited copy into a new copy to pass off skills you inherited to them. This is assuming you gave the current copy you have skills to inherit.
You dont have to merge them in a new copy, you can merge a fresh one in a already build one for the same effect.
young rebecca is literally a child. why would they draw the right picture with knowing that? im actually close to uninstalling this game from this weird shit
Bye.

Thread looks normal on my end.
I think someone on /vg/ posted a link here
This one was tough. It seemed impossible when I first played around with it on the first day, but I was bored and thought I'd go back to it and give it another go.
New calendar
I'm dreading whatever level of super bullshit pre-combat damage or mega unpierceable damage reduction that'll come later this month
Which game/setting hasn't gotten a new Heroes banner in a while?

When was the last Fates banner?

The one with Arcane Eclipse?
The longest is probably Archanea, last one was the one with Ganglot and Ascended Tiki. Fates would be the second longest after that I think.

Results
Very grateful for Duo Sigurd and N!Navarre
i wanna build halloween hector so bad hes so chill
My only true duds from my tickets were double Leo and drawing a Winter Sothis because I already+10 her. The only wins I got imo (based off who I liked) were Duo Hector, Halloween Nowi, Halloween Myrrh, Spring Sharena, and Reinhardt. Everything else was just alright.
On another note I guess IS wants me to build Fallen Morgan. I pulled my fifth copy today from the revival banners.
Best I got was Spring Est, everything else was super lame
I even got Bridal Lyn twice, sadly
I axed most of the bad draws, but I'm happy I got the Tellius seasonals I needed and got Dozla up to +4. Now all he needs is Arcane Void
There's no way you can convince me that summonings in FEH isn't seeded.
I got FOUR (4) summer Leo's in a row. I don't know what the odds are of this happening but I'm sure it's pretty fricking low unless your account is rigged to only summon certain units.
U don't liek tormato? xD
Pirate Vero missing from the list because I merged her, and in the end I managed to get my 6th Myrrh merge, so it all worked fine in the end.
These were all of them
Happy with the duos, Tana and Plumeria
Micaiah is +6 so maybe i'll finish her if i have a lot of orbs when her banner comes around
Personally thought I was on a roll up until Duo Palla because I didn't have any of them and now Palla is +6. After that, everything was a crappy dupe except for W!Sothis
Not pictured: 2 Summer Takumi, 1 NY Takumi.
Overall I'm happy with B Tome Valor and a new Harmonic.
Should I put a seasonal unit for the binding worlds or an absolute kitted out unit for budget builders to get a free gimme carry?
I'd vote for the free carry, I only play the mode for the flowers
Same, which is why I'm sad that it's armor flowers this time around. Let me trade armor flowers for different flowers at a 2:1 rate.
I would give you my blue and yellow flowers for just half those greens
shit I guess I should have been more specific. I mean for if someone wants to buy a unit. Would a seasonal merge you might be missing with some cool skills be better than a hall of forma max flower demote unit with arcane weapons and greatest investment skills?
Oh, my bad. I'd imagine that seasonals would have more broad appeal since they'd be more difficult to get your hands on
Should i let it go this way? I got the sparks i wanted but got blue balled hard in the end. I think Vero reruns again this legendary banner and i should start saving for that (I'm currently at 0 orb)
Vero reruns in June.
If you want merges it's better to keep rolling on the Hero fest, it has much better rates than legendary banners.
>july
God I hope Freyja shares with Triandra and not Edelgard.
What? For some reason i thought it was this month, or was it changed? I guess I'll try to keep rolling since I just need 2 more merges for her and Alfred
You're not wrong, her rerun was scheduled for February. And she did get a rerun, on the Hero Fest.
Good luck with you pulls anon, there's still plenty of time before the banner ends.
Thanks, anon. That last dry spell really hit me tho. I hope i can get at least her to +10 in this banner
Finally. Now i need the fodder
congratulations, now what do you plan to save for?
I still have some legendary/mythic units I'm planning on +10, FShez and MByleth for example, so I'll wait for their rerun and summon til spark
If L!Camilla makes into Top 4 in the AHR, she might be sparkable in 2 banners at the same time around late March (AHR banner and Mythic/Legendary banner).
>Orson's lance only gives up to +6 Atk/Def and nullifies foe bonuses
>and that's only if there's literally no ally even near him at all
What the heck is this? Why is this a prf? There's inheritables that are way better than this.
I'd use him coming out in 2021 as an excuse, but that was literally the same banner as Fallen Edelgard who got like 7 Prf effects.
I thought Assassin's Strike and Occultist's Strike were 2-range only until today. I want to build up my Nifl now.
Scowl really, really screws over Wind Tribe Claude, huh
I wonder if that'll hurt his chances for AHR, because a single Scowl effect shuts off his insta Lethality and he just becomes a pretty bog standard ranged flier
>80% DR
>bog standard
Yup
Grim times for this game
It's partially exaggerated, I mean Claude can still inflict Gravity and Canto away so that's cool but like, three of the current banner units alone have DR pierce (50% from Myrrh and Lyon, full from Ephraim)
Emblem Marth has 50% DR pierce, all the Winter units have full pierce, so unfortunately, Claude wouldn't be able to initiate or exchange blows against them without dying, so if he doesn't one shot, he just gets one shot in return
>used to run a slow DC user
>any claude was super fricking annoying in arena
>now i have SS4 and he just dies
feels so fricking good
There are several ways to get around it I believe.
>Run emblem Marth effect to reduce Claude's cooldown then his weapon will exceed lethality with +1 special charge up and cancel the scowl effect.
>Use Brave Robin who will effectively give Claude special cooldown +5 when he attacks and because Claude only needs 3 charges to use his special normally the excess 2 charge from Brave Robin's effect will negate scowl's negative charge effect.
>Use Brave Robin who will effectively give Claude special cooldown +5 when he attacks and because Claude only needs 3 charges to use his special normally the excess 2 charge from Brave Robin's effect will negate scowl's negative charge effect.
Rally Spectrum grants +1 (or +2 for non-brave, non-slaying weapons), not +5
Whoops forgot about that stipulation but nonetheless it still helps to get around scowl.
I was curious for a while if excess precombat special charge beat Scowl like that or if Scowl activated afterwards to guarantee foe specials wouldn't be fully precharged. It's sad to see Scowl lose like that. It should function better to guarantee you won't take a special to the face on the first hit of combat.
I feel like I've had Winter Dimitri still charge No Quarter despite facing Scowl, so it's kind of like
>Dimitri gets 3 charges, NQ is 2
>Scowl removes 1 charge
>it's still at 2, Dimitri still gets to activate it
So in a case like that you'd need like, two Scowls
Scowl Divine Vein coming right up
whales are unironically better than you guys since they don’t complain about every fiber of the game’s existence 24/7.
I bet you guys don’t even pursue arena or AR, you literally have no reason to complain at all
These threads have gotten too whiny recently, even if I agree that powercreep has been going overboard this year.
But I can't be bothered to care too much, to this day, the most common shit I see in Arena is still Duo Chrom, NY Dagr and Ninja FCorrin and too many people don't bother updating their AR defenses (myself included)
Chaos season is the only defense I bother playing around with since you have free reign without worrying about blessings. I don't roll for Mythics just for the sake of AR score, which means I don't have units that allow you a 7th slot on your defense team on Dark/Astra seasons so I don't feel bothered making them when I can't even deploy the max amount of units. Offense, however, is not too bad for me to deal with. Most defenses I get matched with seem to be made by people that don't take the mode too seriously and I've never gone through all my ladders in AR in the "alternating VoH" tier.
Same deal with Arena. I can't get T21 unless I have a +10 bonus unit since I don't roll for Legendaries I don't give a shit about and my highest scoring units are Duel 4 units, thus I just hang out in T18-19 since they give the same orb rewards as T20. Also people that put heavy emphasis on Arena as a testament of skill are ridiculous. T21 depends on how many orbs you spend on bonus units/high BST units more than anything. Clearing 5 maps without losing any units while also being allowed 2 free losses isn't that hard.
>Clearing 5 maps without losing any units while also being allowed 2 free losses isn't that hard.
As someone who straddles tier 20-21 I'll say it is much more difficult than you let on to win 5 maps with the allowance of 2 loses. You are at the mercy of the bonus units available and whatever powercreep that is released recently. I think my team is decently strong but some months when IS decides to drop a busted unit those weeks/month can be absolute hell especially when they add high mobility nukes or Super tanks who can brush off attacks that would kill previously released tanks. Then imagine having to kill these units with sometimes subpar bonus units each match forcing a surrender or reset if they are too powerful for your bonus unit to kill.
Have a Dual Ploy 3 unit on your core. Makes getting the bonus unit kill a gorillion times easier.
Idk, I thought it was more "wow this is kinda nonsense" and just wondering what level of nonsense is next, just wondering how much more bullshit things can become
I'd like to think that most people here at least have some means of combatting said nonsense, whether it's summoning for the new units or improving their favorites to do so
Because, some people still use year one units to this day, so people aren't gonna just up and quit, even if they may be a bit grumbly about the next unit that sends your unit to 1 HP right as combat begins or whatever
I didn’t read any of what you just said. You don’t even give the devs or Nintendo money. Why should we listen to you, let alone Nintendo? If you don’t enjoy the game don’t play it. It’s really as simple as that
I didn't read any of what you just said.
Am I not allowed to genuinely like the game?
Am I supposed to b***h and moan about it constantly and say I hate it while still playing it?
yeah, if you didn’t see that’s hivemind here
also make sure you don’t play any modes besides pve so your opinion is even less valuable
Who said you couldn't like the game? I love it myself, my post was about weirdos who act high and mighty for paying
>complain about people getting angry about the game
>say that whales (who probably +10 every new powercreep at release) don’t complain as much
>get shit on and called a pay pig whale
>”ermmm I guess I’m not allowed to like this game actually”
I think you’re just stupid anon, you’re allowed to enjoy the game just like others are allowed to complain about it
You're supposed to criticize the things you love if you don't want to see them stagnate and become shit, and I think it's perfectly valid to criticize FEH's current state, the secret is to not be a b***h about it
I respect whales ten times more than F2P redditors who keep whining about everything. Whales keep the game alive and they're not annoying to have around, F2Ptards contribute to nothing aside from rigging CYL votes.
True to an extent. The competitive FEH discord has a lot of whales and it’s a toxic shitbin. But you could argue it’s all from the whales who use their unemployment money like Adara and PunishedMatty
>The competitive FEH discord

Hardy Bearing or Mystic Boost for Winter Byleth?
who are you afraid of that he needs hardy bearing?
Hardy Bearing, but I equipped him with Squad Ace BU 3 seal for Dark defense.
>Squad Ace BU 3
I vote we reference them the way the duel simulator does.
Definitely Hardy Bearing
Byleth's biggest counter is any physical unit with Desperation; he'll pretty much kill anything that relies on DR to survive and most units will be getting their specials off on the second hit so they'll only have to deal with 40% DR instead of 80% DR.
Personally, in Summoner Duels, I just overcome him with instant AoE Legendary Camilla since her pre-combat damage is ridiculously powerful.
Either way, Mystic Boost is garbage on him. One of the HP+5, Res+3, Stat+3 seals would be better than that.
Is smol Minerva a good Grail project? I've got feathers and grails and no project at the moment
Only if you're sure you'll keep her up-to-date as the years go by. I have a few grail +10s that I almost never used after initially merging them up and kinda regret it. I'd try to avoid spending resources "just because you have them".
She's currently the best breath support unit for a galeforce setup because the other breath support units can't run galeforce themselves, in that context all she really needs is WoM3 and Galeforce.
>got a Legendary Seliph merge
Nice
I think Emblem heroes were a great addition to the game.
Same, I hope they make them varied enough to help old units find new life. Is there one that could work with slow tanky mages?
Res Preempt so you could still run Special Spiral 4 in the B slot for DR piercing.
Nice, it'll probably be on, I dunno, Micaiah? I didn't play Engage
lets see, their main gimmicks in engage were
>celica: warping
>sigurd: mov
>leif: vantage, and multi-weapon advantage? maybe he'll give guaranteed WTA or something
>roy: miracle
>lyn: massive range snipe and 4-clone chain attacks? maybe they'll just give her brave effect to simulate that
>eirika (+ephraim): solar/lunar brace
>ike: DR + aether
>micaiah: healing, and sacrifice for all allies
>lucina: chain attacks, and ally-protecting, so maybe some DR save shenanigans?
>corrin: every vein ever
>byleth: big buffs depending on weapon/class, and dancing all adjacent allies
dlc emblems which they'll almost certainly include because of 3H alone:
>edel+dimitri+claude:
>tiki: fat fricking stats, and turning into a dragon
>hector: basically just how armors are in FEH
>soren: basically just brave soren
>camilla: even more veins
>chrom+robin: basically brave robin
>veronica: summons heroes, who knows what they'd do with her
Gimme that Ike, he's my favorite lord and that's a sick effect
You forgot to list 3H lords gimmick. Well they had the effect of swapping in-between each other each round and allowing you use of their Prf skills.
>Dimitri: had Atrocity skill and skill that negated 1st ranged attack per combat.
>Claude: had Fallen star and skill that inflicted poison after attacking.
>Edelgard: had raging storm and flame gambit like her winter alt after attacking.
I wonder whether they will be grouped together or by themselves. My money is they will be their own separate engage unit to sell more banners because it'd be a waste to drop them all at once and a hassle to choose who'd be the front unit (obviously it'd Edelgard).
or they make them one single unit that has all of their prfs at once
i'd believe it
I shudder at an Edelgard with the hard hitting damage of Dimitri, the ability to get 80% DR on first hit and then gravity adjacent units, and raging storm to get another turn. To rub more into the player wounds the unit would leave a trail of fire tiles, inflict exposure (to copy engage poison effect), and the unit has 100% DR against all ranged units first attack gg for slow units that somehow don't outspeed the unit.
How far we've come.
very impressive. now show her in SD
>stack DR
>take unit into PvE
>Unit good?!?!?
I'm aware you're just shitposting, but I thought it would be funny to do it again without half skill slots equipped in response. Nowhere in my post did I imply the feat was impressive nor that Mia was an S tier unit. In fact, I was implying the complete opposite; that it's funny how far our units have improved over the past 6 years since LRyoma's release to where what was supposed to be somewhat challenging is now a complete pushover to even a year 1 unit. I'm guessing you just really despise Mia or something to allow yourself to misinterpret my post that severely.

can i see your arion build?
I know you guys like to complain about Omni-tanking being dead but this is how you should be supporting your tank. I bet the most of you just move tank into range and end turn that isn't going to work nowadays. You need to be debuffing the foes as much as possible if possible (Freyr is the GFY unit). And you have to be giving your tank stats preferably from more than two spaces away if the opponent is running Ninja Snacki. Also use the stone Vein if possible it'll save your life if you get hit by stray specials.
Well anyway prior to hitting the record button my tank blocked Nabata Igrene AoE and Nabata Altina who hit her special and did no damage. Their other unit was legendary Robin who I cancelled his skill with his father running ploy 3.
remote sparrow or remote mirror for nyx?
Sparrow, she's going to want to double as often as possible to kill.
thanks Im moronic. RIP to K!linde then
feels good
I'm unironically and non-judgementally curious how much money you have to burn to achieve this result. Do you need to be the King of giga whales to push your team to the absolute limit? Do you get by with subbing to Feh pass every now and then because the actual giga whales are too smoothbrained to pay their way to the top? Something inbetween? Don't tell me you're a f2p homosexual, I don't think I could believe that.
Reaching rank 1 in chaos season is perfectly doable as a f2p
chaos season is free 0 merges needed
regular seasons require 3 +10 mythics
rank 1 always comes down gambling on defences
what kind of arena defense team do you guys do?
>same as offense team, with bonus unit
>mix of favorites, with/without bonus
>meme team, no bonus
>team to ruin others' day, no bonus
>cav line
if you cant beat em join em
Disgusting
yeah I hate myself
Same as offense team.
I wish I wasn't shit at crafting a defense map
Tina is THE ar defense noob stomper
Opponent brings w!edelgard? my entire team now has charge
trys to vantage you with w!dimitri? i dont think so
Didn't have orbs to spark her, had to save to +10 L!Ephraim when he was on the remix banner.
Favorites sprinkled with a bit of fresh cancer as to make it not too easy for challengers. However I can't be assed to build an insurmountable meme defense.
>Arena defense
My favorite 4 units (the first 4 Camilla released). I don't need the extra few hundred feathers, so try harding the defense is beyond gay.
Never cared about tiers, I'd rather have fun
spd smoke 4 for nyx to stack more DR?
Shouldn't her refine be coming soon? She's pretty old. Maybe wait for that before deciding what skills to dump on her.
>forgot about refine coming up
>already gave her remote sparrow
FRICK
if you want to enemy phase too, then remote sparrow is less useful
if you're willing to invest with a darting blow echo instead, then finish+spd smoke works much better, because healing keeps DR potent and your A well then be dual phase
nyx only gets DR in enemy phase from her weapon against magic and staff though
given the state of the game I dont see enemy phase being very possible or plausible though. So im just trying to stack the PP player phase to power up ginnugap to kill on the follow up. the spd smoke 4 would have to only useful if danced for another attack
fair enough, but then you're also assuming that you're going to take a hit to be able to make use of that DR, and surviving up to two counters
I'd also consider a more general use smoke because of which, or just incite or something
I dont get the appeal of incite. can you sell me on it?
If you're gonna be moving a lot then you get more stats
hows that any different than clash though?
It's built into the C skill, ig
What is the fastest turn around for any skill (or status effect) to go from being available on a premium unit to a free or accessible unit?
I feel like the Discord status effect comes to mind, originally on Duo Shamir and then it became available on Kempf's weapon refine like, not too long after that
Brave Tiki having Scowl to Ascended Y!Tiki having Scowl to Scowl being inheritable
I feel like I've unlocked Marth's third eye or something because being able to Vantage and bypass counter denial is pretty neat to see
>NCD B!Marth
You are evil
I'd prefer to have A/D Menace on him, but I had a Zeke for A/D Catch 4 so I was able to just grab D/R Menace. Normally I'd have Legendary Camilla on my arena team instead of Female Corrin so I'd probably run Heavy Blade over Guidance.
Lilith. Free JDA.
If you really want her, go for it. Like anon said, she's not going to be sparkable again and if you want merges or her in general, right now is your best shot. Unless you really want someone from AHR, go for Lucina.
wow cool i pulled juno and got guard bearing 4 and atk def unity but menace sounds pretty strong on arion, thanks for sharing
>arena bonus units are still complete ass for me
i bet as soon as i resign to t18, next week's bonus will be something that could've gotten me into t21
You can always wait for the next week bonus units to be revealed on saturday.
I got one of those Jugdral sword chicks off the ticket, I'm not sure which one
Arena run went surprisingly smooth, despite having to lug around Vigarde.
Ticket gave me a B!Ike merge, got him to +6. I hope I can get a gatekeeper now that he's in the pool, he's eluded me for so long.
Who did you get from arena tickets?
I got Ced
Garbage
Got another Gazelle
Another Velouria, so that's a merge
So close
You'd make it had you fire blessed team. On that note IS really should give us more legendary blessings.
Completely forgot about blessings but I really, really don't want to have to do this again. I'll just cross my fingers and hope I get bumped up, and if that doesn't happen by the end of the week then I'll think about trying again.
In arena you can't be bumped up only down. The only reason a person stays in a tier is due to many others receiving the same score which "expands" the range. So the only realistic way for you to get tier 21 is to use better scoring units or to bless the current heroes your using.
So much for rolling V!Lucina. Any idea when she might next be run on a sparkable banner? Apparently the game has decided that I have to pay the full 160 orbs minimum for every copy.
Would it not be next year? Most units run on their original banner then on a double special banner the same year they came out. After that they are run only on their original banner unless they win AHR.
>Would it not be next year?
With one merge per year I have to wonder if I'll be able to finish her before EOS hits. You think this game will still be around in 2030?
I've completed several seasonal units. It just takes saving orbs until they return the following year. My best strategy to save is to only use half of your monthly orbs for whatever banner you want the rest you hold for that seasonal unit to return. By the time they come back you should have 1k+ of orbs hopefully. And assuming you don't get unlucky you should get them in the orbs you have.
I don't think she'll get another sparkable banner, unless they put her on HoF again or something.
Her banner will eventually join the 4% rate club, but that's like 2 years away, assuming the game even lives that long.
I still have some unfinished maps. Should I dip into my rainy day reserve to try and roll some more even though the spark is used up now? Or would I only be setting myself up for major grief and disappointment?
Her actual banner gets a rerun in a few days I think. If you're going to spend anything, you might as well wait for it. But I'm not sure even that is worth it.
It's not going to have focus charge without Feh pass, is it? Because as you can see, I'm up on two charges for the HoF banner already. Not that it has to mean much, given that I was pity broken three times on my way to 40, but it might still be the better starting point vs no focus charge at all.
All banners(that have off focus 5* chance, anyway) have focus charges, I think.
I guess it depends on how many orbs you can access. If you can somehow grind enough orbs(or if you're willing to pay for them) to have a decent chance to get a 5* it might be worth it to try getting one more Lucina out of this banner. If not, then I probably wouldn't take the risk, but in that case I'm not sure that having 2 extra weeks to get orbs will be of much help anyway.
I was looking at the current Valentine banner for reference which only gives focus charge and spark with Feh pass, but now it dawns on me that the same rules don't apply to reruns. Anyway, I'll go grind some more and see hoe many orbs I can scrape together before I go mad from the tedium.
Don't listen to the other anon. If you want to proof your dedication you have to go +10. You don't want to be a lesser man than
do you?
For the love of God, don't fall for the +10 meme if you aren't whaling which by all appearances you don't seem to do. If you sparked Lucina then all you need are 100 fruits for a Spd boon and 4,000 divine codes to get her manual which you can use as a free merge for negating the bane. Conserve your orbs. If you actually want to USE Lucina and not just merge her, you'll get far more mileage out of rolling for premium fodder. Depending on the final AHR lineup you could use your orbs to roll for e.g. Edelgard to give Lucina Armored Blaze. Or wait for Near and Far Save 4 to come out. Unless you're exceptionally lucky you WILL regret to roll on that banner any further.
>grind out a small mountain of orbs
>go back to the banner before it ends
>very first circle comes with zero green orbs to pick
That instantly soured me on this shit like you wouldn't believe. Fricking game can't even pretend to give me a chance. I regret paying so much as the 5 orb entrance fee. With the shit luck I keep having, it baffles me how anyone could possibly merge a unit to completion without spending insane amounts of money on it. I guess I'll save for AHR then. To hell with non-sparkable banners.
Dang, I was hoping you'd get that merge. Here's to hoping you get the units you want on the AHR banner.
Banners are seeded, moron. Standard gacha procedure. You think they'd just give out popular units no strings attached? Whales get better odds than what is claimed, f2p Black folk get worse odds. Keeping whales happy and spending is the number one priority. Duh.
If that's the case, they've lied in patents which is grounds for suing
Try to sue and see what happens. You have no hard evidence, only anecdotal evidence, and you literally cannot even acquire hard evidence unless you break into IS headquarters (grounds for suing) to get a hold of their confidential data. Nobody is going to do that and nobody really cares anyway. Who's going to have sympathy to spare for f2p Black folk getting deceived to spur an investigation into IS or any other gacha company? You're playing their games for free, you aren't entitled to shit. That's how the common man and the common boomer judge will see the matter.
For what it's worth, I was pointing that out because it's a ludicrous and moronic theory. I do not actually think it's worth trying to sue.
Isn't all RNG in video games seeded? I thought current technology was unable to make things truly random so seeds are necessary to give the illusion of randomness. Whether IS manipulates seeds is a different story though but I hardly find that to be likely at all.
I haven't looked at the FEH Summoning Patent in years, but it theoretically could use a multitude of variables such as time summoning initiated, time account was created, etc to make something as random as it could possibly be.
I'll laugh if the seed was determined the same as Engage's seed was calculated when rolling the ring gacha which was based off the amount of enemies encountered. By abusing this and looking at the rarity prior you could guarantee a specific hero showing up at the rarity of choice.
Further testing is required
>+10 Emblem Marth boosting +10 Marth on a team with +10 L!Marth and +10 B!Marth
Thank you Arena Assault for this magical experience
would potent 4 be better on summer fjorm than spurn 4?
Frostbite Mirror takes all damage reduced into account for damage calculation, so you'd be losing out on the 50% Spurn DR versus the 30% Potent DR plus the flat 5 damage that Spurn 4 gives when defensive specials trigger (doesn't require you to be under an HP threshold, just have a defensive special go off). She's got Frostbite Mirror charged all the time, so you wouldn't be getting anything special out of an extra attack since she deals most of her damage from reflection.
I don't think it's worth it to swap to Potent 4.
this is the second time I've built vigarde solely because my other arena bonus units suck at the time
vigarde with base kit + boots seal did a lot better than i expected in arena
so much for the arcane downfall I've been saving, this axe is ridiculous
>want to give ranged horses fleeting echo
>nino can't learn flared sparrow, trace 4 or occultist's strike for duping
Stupid Nino. Remote Sparrow/Desperation 4/Assassin's Strike/Incite AtkSpd seem to be the best she can do if I want to pass her around to horses.
It's Attuned _____!
Reinhardt.
Again?!
Of course! Reinhardt is the main character of FE5 after all! Definitely not a nothing character with a total of like 5 lines in one chapter
As I was writing this, I realized that Reinhardt actually has more alts than Leif lmao
>Leif: regular, Legendary, Scion
>Reinhardt: regular, Swordhardt, dancer, Rearmed
Legendary Reinhardt next.
FE5 remake will let you recruit him and the fact that he kidnaps children for a foreskin harvesting cult will never be addressed
I was going to try and reply about how FE has recruited villains before and justify it but
>foreskin harvesting cult
kek
I wouldn't mind an fe5 remake leaning on Reinhardt's newfound popularity, but only if they don't retcon him and make him an honorable figure. Doing that would ruin Olwen's arc, but IS wouldn't care
Maybe dishonest popularity would be more fitting. He's a shitty shallow character but people love him because he's le epic tiny hands
>He's a shitty shallow character but people love him because he's le epic tiny hands
I think it's a little disingenuous to say characters can't be popular because they're good from a gameplay perspective. People LOVE Seth and I bet most people couldn't say anything about him apart from "he's loyal" and "he was epic in the Prologue when he survived Valter", but in gameplay he fricks Sacred Stones sideways so people love him.
At least Seth fans played Sacred Stones. Halvan is one of my favorites and he has close to no personality, so I understand what you mean, but 99% of Reinhardt's fans haven't touched FE5, and his popularity amongst secondaries affects FE5's treatment by FEH's devs. As an FE5 fan, it sucks that Finn nor Eyvel have gotten alts at all, Linoan and Dean aren't even in the game at all, Olwen has half the amount of alts as Reinhardt and even Leif, the game's protagonist, has less alts that him. I have no qualms with him being popular with secondaries, but he is actively affecting my enjoyment of this game, so it bothers me
>he is actively affecting my enjoyment of this game
>A character is popular for reasons I disagree with and now I can't have fun
>People can't like a character unless they've played the original game, it's against the law!! never mind that it's a JP exclusive that was released in the most moronic way possible so many JP fans likely haven't even played it.
Thats a fair criticism of FE5 representation, and I can understand your frustration of having Reinhardt affect it. Sucks to keep getting Olwen and Reinhardt in FEH when I sacked her for Ilios in my run.
lol I wish, Olwen hasn't gotten anything since 2018
>game has heavily skewed representation and barely gets units as it is
>calls it out
>"NOOOOOOO I COULDN'T BEAT THRACIA, SO LITERALLY NO ONE HAS PLAYED THAT GAME, WHO EVEN CARES ABOUT IT AHHHHHHHHHH"
I do, and if your filtered ass has a problem with it I suggest you stop being a little b***h
>Olwen hasn't gotten anything since 2018
She got her resplendent in 2020 though??
You cried a more popular character got more alts than your favorites and your excuse on why they shouldn't is because 90% of the people who like him don't have access to his game to remedy the label you've forced on them, never mind that you blow the issue out of proportions in the first place.
You've done nothing but b***h and moan while trying to rationalize/justify your anger with half baked excuses because someone else got lucky. When this is pointed out you don't even deny it but deflect to false ad hominem.
I hope you get the alts you want. Good bye, Anon.
As a fellow fe5 enjoyer, the reinhardt memes only made my love for thracia bigger. Maybe lower your tisms a bit.
Rein's forging bonds like most other characters never treads new ground. His indicision to leave or support Friege is not something he lets on to most anyways.
>He's a shitty shallow character but people love him because he's le epic tiny hands
A lot of characters in earlier titles are written with the assumption that you've watched Legend of the Galactic Herores or general war stories. Tons of people in history have fought on a side they don't particularly agree with for countless reasons, honor included.
>game has heavily skewed representation and barely gets units as it is
Most FE games are like that, fricking FE8 is lord/kete wank the game
>5 lines of dialogue
>helps kidnap children for a demonic cult
>is confronted about it in the FB
>it's ok to kidnap and murder children because muh knight honor
Is Reinhardt the character with the most artificial popularity in the series? Is "honor" the stupidest excuse you can give to excuse yourself from commiting horrible atrocities against humanity?
What exactly is "artificial popularity"?
Artificial popularity is just a word people use to shit on characters they don't like being popular for reasons they don't agree with.
I've seen people use different definitions of it all over the place. "X Character is only popular because they're a broken!!! they're actually shit!!", or "X character is only popular because they have big breasts, nobody would care otherwise!!" and many more.
Being a good unit is a common way people bond with a character in any FE game, you'll often hear that reason a lot on a list of reasons when someone explains why a character is their favorite. Reinhardt just lucked out in FEH as he was busted when SI became a thing, and was 4* unit so everyone could get him. People will come up with reasons to shit on the guy for being successful.
TL:DR
Artificial popularity is a buzzword people use to shit on a character they don't like. Reinhardt being popular because of FEH is perfectly fine.
Artificial popularity is when a character gets popular but you do not like that character
there never was a fe5, Reinhardt is a character created by Fire Emblem Heroes
Oh, I just free summoned Duo Elise. -Atk though. How good is she?
Fodder
She holds up. Gets most of her attack from her B and Duo button. The -Atk won't hamper her. She's got a Flash staff on giga steroids.
I have a +10 one on my friend list and she seems to kill nearly anything she chooses to initiate on.
oh boy oh boy affinity auto battles!
Getting HUGE.
hm come to think of it, thrima + ploy 4 could be a neat combo
>the only axe users with above 40 res are desert altina and baby hector
dammit
Can confirm it's nice. OG Cam went from zero to hero in Abyssal clears.
Finally, I did everything, cleaned all the drills and all those chain challenges in every difficulties
Don't you love how follow-up negation is downright useless nowadays? Anyway, I couldn't Auto because the stupid healer kept recovering Rhea until Myrrh got taken out of Guard range.
Nevermind, placed her on the bottom left square and she Auto'd the map. The stupid healer made this take like 6 extra turns.
>kill Ludveck with Alfonse
Impossible
Anon, your Triangle Adept Axebreaker?
Well, it worked, but I feel like I've lost the moral battle.
Don't feel too bad, that's the bare minimum any of the lame Askr trio needs to finish those quests
That and a whole heaping of support; I usually use Thief Leila for that purpose
ally aoe + exposure is the only thing you ever need for those quests
my alfonse will forever stay 2*
I will force him to make me stay in T21 this week, just you watch
Bride!Catria's brave + bride!Micaiah's dominance + sorcery blade seal on 4* shitfonse does the job for me
>FE5 remake
Have 600 points from a defense too. Is it absolutely over? Can I grind for more points? I thought for once after 7 years I could finally get a crown.
defense points affect nothing but a handful of feathers you get
you should focus on a core of 3 high scoring (melee infantry/armored, or legendaries/duo/harmonics with built in duel skill effects) units at +10
as is, your team is not scoring anywhere near competitively enough
Just sparked my merge project of the mythic banner but i still have the 2nd spark
Which one should i get
>Image limit
+3 Veyle
+4 Hinoka
+5 Micaiah (might get a remix this year?)
Secret dumb option where i get RSonya and +10 Tea Tailtiu
I think I'm finally hitting that point where playing Heroes feels like a chore, and I hate that I feel that way.
Why does it feel like a chore to you?
Probably a mix of streaks of pretty bad luck and just not really enjoying stuff like arena or AR anymore.
I feel you. I wouldn't say it's the game's fault (maybe a bit, the banners so far this year hace been terrible), but I got a new job recently and 90% of my free time has been spent on Infinite Wealth, so I've played maybe 10 minutes these last few days. I haven't done any of the limited battles, and I'm gonna end the tempest trial with like 35k points. Doesn't help that the most exhilirating event is running right now
Any luck with the free tickets?
wanted a Mark merge, but got a free bunny Freyja.
No dice unfortunately, just a few 3* and 4* shitters
Was hoping for Wind Claude but no green Orbs showed up anyway
I got Claude and Sigurd, so that's nice. Rika is climbing up there as a favorite FEH artist
Was hoping for soaring guidance fodder, got spring Karla instead. Still pretty nice, I didn't have any FE7 harmonics before, and now I'm promoting to interval 21 in resonant battles thanks to her.
2 Spring Triandras. Up to +5 and that's probably where she'll stay since I don't plan to roll on seasonal reruns unless they adjust them to either be sparkable or increase the rate.
Duo Karla.
Very grateful since I don't have many good fe7 units for tomorrow's LHB
Duo Karla, which i was happy for about 1 second since i thought she had flow desperation
Spent a handful of extra orbs while using the tickets aiming for Elise for fodder and got Triandra, so that was pretty good.
>elise for fodder
i'm surprised we still don't have a slaying staff, or arcane
emblem marth ended up pretty beneficial if you inherit one of the 3cd offensive specials to any other staff user at least
>i'm surprised we still don't have a slaying staff, or arcane
Because they're not sure whether to make it a Wrathful Staff by default (necessitating Dazzling Shift) or a Dazzlng Staff by default (necessitating Poetic Justice), so they just rather not make any arcane Staff at all
>Slaying
>All stats +5
>Grants unit and allies within 2 spaces NFU
>Inflict [flavor of the month status effect] on foes within 3 rows and columns
>Refine for Wrathful and 30% DR
>Refine for Dazzling and Ignore 30% DR
IS will never do it
Threw in a few orbs and picked up Elise and Shamir
>Get garbage on the tickets
>Really want Desperation 4
>"ehh ill probably get her in a few more summons"
>Get the other 2 Colorless units in one wheel
>Whatever, I'll just get to spark
>40 summons
>"btw FEH Pass only :^)"
Absolute fricking bummer.
That's a rookie mistake, you really should've known better. Although I'll concede that IS is definitely hoping for people to accidentally mistake Feh pass sparks for free ones. Easy enough to overlook when you're inattentive and still unfamiliar with the game.
>Easy enough to overlook when you're inattentive and still unfamiliar with the game
Been here since day 1, just had bad tunnel vision this morning.
I got nothing and my brother got Mark, Karla and Ivy from tickets. Currently trying to keep my seethe under control
Free claude, can't complain
claude, sigurd and lysithea in 90 orbs, claude and sigurd had bad IVs but oh well
It's nice that Nowi and HNowi have been able to beat all the Awakening LHBs for me so far including the Abyssals.
lewdnowifanart.jpg
Vital Astra or Godlike Reflexes?
Vita astra is pretty much obsolete these days. Non-special DR piercing is becoming more and more common, and until they (inevitably) begin making skills that can pierce special DR, GLR is pretty much mandatory.
VA is basically a budget skill these days
Guees I better start saving scrolls to get Lyn's manual then. Idk if changing Neph's TP4 for Spd Smoke 4 will affect GLR's charge.
Having to initiate once isn't that big a deal, that said, the ideal setup-less loadout is gonna have buffer 4 on your b slot anyway.
I've seen some builds with Close Call 4 used instead. I don't have a Severa to fodder so it'll have to do until she comes back in a future banner.
TP4 allows you to keep up GLR with marth ring even if the enemy has guard, wich buffer wouldn't allow and i don't think you wanna run both. buffer is also only on turn 1 which means you can get the charge disrupted.
How does No Quarter compare?
No quarter is a strictly offensive option. Not really comparable on the same metric. It is excellent, but it needs a unit that isn't gonna take many hits.
what happens if I have desperation and vantage on the same unit? if they get attacked and can double do they just make both attacks before the enemy?
Desperation works ONLY if you initiate.
Vantage works ONLY if the opponent initiates.
They do not have any overlap.
FRICK
okay thanks
I think Winter Marth with his refine is the one exception if he wins the Spd check, it's both Vantage and an enemy phase Desperation.
Emblem Marth is also able to enemy phase Desperation too, although Vantage is a bit out of reach (since it would require giving up Potent 4 for those triple attacks)
Thankfully his remix fixed it, but L!Seliph also had enemy phase desperation
Seliph's remix is so insanely good, it's shocking that I never see him. He hard checks anything I could chuck at him, shy of blue defense tanks.
Offensive units are getting way to strong for any tank to keep up and prebattle damage is getting pretty popular
The only thing Seliph's got now is his Null C-Disrupt, but that won't save him against say Lyon who can carve off half of Seliph's HP and his DR in the process
>want to try to solo with attuned nino
>she needs to be within 2 spaces of an ally to function
Fug.
I just cannot do Elibe LBs
could probably give murdock mystic boost seal and some generic fodder and he'd do pretty well
Murdock is a binding blade unit though
I just cannot not do Elibe LBs

is there any chance FEH will EoS anytime soon? No right? I’m just worried….
Nahh, December probably funded it for the whole year. Sorry, anon, the ride never ends!!
Seriously?
I can’t detect sarcasm at all
I was not being sarcastic. I'm pretty sure December was the best FEH did all 2023 long, but I don't have the data on hand to give a completely informed answer.
It would honestly be hilarious if this game EoS'd before we got Nergal or Athos
Speak honestly, how much money spent would go down the drain if they shut down the servers tomorrow?
Not that anon, but I dropped $1000 between my account and my wife's account during Year 1. That money was down the drain long, long ago
Hard to tell. It's a fact that Nintendo has been pulling out of the mobile market, the downfall of MKT being a recent high profile example that no title is safe. But maybe IS are allowed to do their own thing independent of Nintendo's overall corporate strategy?
Then there's the more obvious problem that IS keeps making FEH more and more unappealing to casual players and minnow/dolphin tier spenders, shrinking the playerbase on top of the normal background attrition rate owed to FEH's sheer age. If this was any other gacha, I'd reckon that the end must be nigh. But the one redeeming quality of FEH - which may successfully keep it alive for many more years - is that it's not just a gacha game which needs to turn a profit, it's also originally meant as a marketing ploy for the Fire Emblem franchise as a whole. So if there's any hope for this game's future, it lies with IS's presumed willingness to keep it running as a neverending commercial rather than a self-sustaining business operation of its own.
FEH is still way above where MK Tour was when they pulled the plug.
And I feel like if anything it's the other way around, where FEH gets a big boost from new FE games. The only issue it has recently is that Engage's cast failed to be as popular as IS would like.
go back to your shit general moron
It really thinks this place is its own "secret club"
I think we're gonna get another Attuned Hero, since Ascended Heroes seem to be kill
How does Potent 4 interact with weapons granting follow-up attacks? Does the unit still get the full 80% or 40% extra attack?
>if unit cannot perform follow-up and attack twice, X = 80; otherwise, X = 40
silhouettes tonight?
Next banner is new heroes to
I am now slightly regretting foddering off Ninja Lyn, at least she could do something for today's Limited Hero Battle stuff
Also makes me realize how little Blazing Blade units I actually have built up

you had 7 years to learn japanese
They had 7 years to put dual audio in the game while every other gachas have it no problem.
Why would you give a shit about duel audio if you can't speak Japanese?
I don't get it.
Why are you asking such a moronic question, are you a tourist? You don't need to understand the language to appreciate the voice and acting of a professional. And why the frick would you EVER listen to a low cost american dub in a japanese game? I'd rather mute the game
Oh, you're just that autist. My bad.
Literally who??? What boogeyman is this? Are we /vg/ now already? Just because I said something that has been said for decades on this website? I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, i'll be more careful the next time
He's a moronic weeb
because Treehouse localisation is shit and they change some lines or word for no reason
>Mercenary Battle Axe become Draconic Poleaxe
How would dual audio fix that?
Because English bad!
I'm wondering if the hero quotes in the main story is because IS could not have a set release date planned, and if they decide last minute to introduce a skill that counters current meta they then have the ability freely move up or push back releasing certain characters.
Is there a good combo to use prime skills or are they just garbage? Got a Dimitri and Claude to fodder but can't find a way to get the buffs for the counters to activate.
From what I understand it's all dependant on the weapon. I had an idea for a build using Fuga's club and Assault Troop, the last buff can be outsourced
So, to use prime skills the teammates are the ones who should give the buffs, rather than the unit?
Ideally the unit should supply most of them. Claude and Dimitri aren't exactly comparable to regular units, but they supply their own buffs and easily hit their marks
In an ideal world, you'd supply them yourself. That being said, L!Eliwood or Young Eliwood can grant 3 buffs, so there's something to be said for team building.
They're really good on Infantry units if you can nab Pledge and Oath Echo (reminder to vote for Peony in AHR). You would just need two more status effects, and a Harmonic button or an Askr/Veyle deployment would let you hit that.
Prime skills can be very powerful, but beware that there exists a hard counter to all of them: https://files.catbox.moe/c3i9p1.jpg

New thread:
Isn't the trailer tonight? It'd probably be better to start a new thread after it goes up wouldn't it?
frick off. you couldnt just wait till the trailer tonight?
moron
>people defending a lack of dual audio
Who are you quoting, anon?
You're not even allowed to shit on eng dubs anymore lol. People on this website have always been shitting on eng dubs (and rightfully so) since the creation of this website but now it's a big NO-NO
What's surprising is the lack of mods to just switch the audio files, and just made the dual audio ourselves
Dual audio is fine, I use it a lot myself, the problem is when people think they're better than someone else for wanting or using Japanese voices
I just play this game on mute
Playing it on mute is still playing it on English but you can't hear it!
This, if no dual audio, no voices at all, classic FE experience.
This but because I hate the garbage music that they keep putting on seasonal maps
This. It was hard to open FEH anywhere with sharena screaming the title.
uh wow
i did it (Elincia's limited hb)
https://files.catbox.moe/b3gcwk.jpg
>open game
>no orb as daily reward
>nothing but auto battle modes
>close game
How boring, I already missed two days of the events so I'm already losing orbs. Without a TT one might as well not log in.
Why is every Binding Worlds build exactly the same
any predictions for tonight?
I'm hoping it's Tellius, I've been saving up for Brom
Reaction if it's RD and we get Meg but no Brom?
Sorrow because I hate the Dawn Brigade. Thank God for the beast royals and BK
I think we're due for Archanea so probably Ascended/Rearmed/Attuned/Postpartum/Diabetic Minerva and some scraps like Midia and Xane
It would be interesting to see Xane and his stat copying ability again
he'd probably get something like thief and bonus doubler 4 all in one weapon or one prf
Cecil is in finally in, Xane gets a base form, demote Arran, Ascended Caeda.
Banner with 2 ocs, ascended/rearmed character who already has 4+ alts, and demote new character no one cares about.
You forgot the demote generic cavalry lancer.
>rearmed hortesia and attuned Ivy
LMAO
>first unit revealed is the homogay
And video closed.
I was expecting the gay to show up but i wasn't expecting him over goldmarie, or him being a premium unit instead of a shitty demote
>engayge shit
I fricking hate it here. at least I can skip and continue to save
>rosado homosexual
skip
Thank god I foresaw Kagetsu would be the demote so I sparkled for some skills.
At least he's in and he'll be easy to merge, but...
>still no way to counter precombat damage
frick you IS
holy mother of mid, at least base Ivy is ok
>soaring echo
What in the frick
Ivy just seems like L!camilla but worse lol which yea know makes sense given that Ivy is also just camilla but worse character wise
Except Ivy can teleport easily and run Pass to counter warp bubble without having to give up her prf skill.
Dunno about the character because I haven't read any of their supports. But Camilla is hotter.
Ivy seems similar to Camilla on the surface (busty elder sister of a cold and icy nation)
But she's just kinda more awkward, whereas Camilla goes full on motherly affectionate
>best unit in engage
>demote
lmao mans got hit with the seth treatment
>attuned
I sleep
>arcane staff
Now I’ll roll for that. Is that a new inheritable skill
Why are the Engage designs so fricking terrible? That clown chick makes me cringe on a spiritual level
the price IS must pay for having them designed by a fricking vtuber artist. said artist should kill herself
>easiest of skips
>but they're releasing the arcane staff
MOTHERFRICKER. And every single premium unit is also packed with their own exclusive skill. So I see this is going to be the next flavor of powercreep. Frick this trash.
Would Wyvern Rift work well with Ashnard? I might pull
I'm pretty sure it's going to be an exclusive skill, look how everyone else except Kagetsu have their own.
It's got a yellow border and the other two are special units
Those 2 got one because they are limited time units, and specially the rearmed need extra power from their undertuned prf weapons. And speaking of limited units, isn't it great how half the banner is gonna be stuck in limbo after it ends?
>The closest thing Engage has to a hot guy is free
I guess I should be thankful
I already dont care about this. so whats next on the calendar? a legendary unit?
Hortensia came earlier than I was expecting. I just wish she wasn't a rearmed unit since that means her weapon had to be kept in check a little since it's inheritable to any staff user. On the plus side, since I plan on +10'ing her, that means all my staff units will get a good weapon buff, so that's something to look forward to.
Frick, I just realized that I'm gonna have to have Ugly Clown Chick in my barracks since I hoard arcane weapons
Bro, your reserves??????
I do not use that because I do not understand how it works
I forgot it existed because I can't use Skill Inheritance with it

We need a new thread with the new banner. Whoever made that one was a moron
We really don't. You people are fricking autistic. How fricking petty do you have to be to think a thread is completely unusable because the OP image isn't the banner you wanted it to be? For how much you people complain about /vg/, you sure act like /vg/ often.
>/vg/ out of nowhere
You need to go back
inb4 "secret club"
>For how much you people complain about /vg/
No one here gives a shit about /vg/, and we only complain about /vg/ when their fricking schizos and spammers flood these threads. If you really knew these threads, you'd damn well know we always wait until new banners before creating a new thread, even when we have passed the image limit since a while ago.
The OP never influences discussion beyond the first 20 posts. There is, quite literally, no reason to be throwing this much of a fit over it. As long as it's not an OP by an obvious shitposter like a couple months ago, why should anyone be kicking and screaming this much over it? Even in the new thread that contains the Valentine's banner in the OP image, discussion is currently pertaining to the new banner as normal. I seriously do not understand why you're letting such a microscopic matter ruffle you so much. If you want to stay here b***hing and moaning until one of you make a new ""proper"" thread, feel free, but I'm moving to the new thread currently up where normal discussion is underway.

I could make a new thread if you guys want
sure why not the other thread is shit anyway
It follows the same format as every other thread we've ever had, so I guess every thread we've had is shit.

There's no need
Here you go then…

Is anyone rolling on the newer units? I'm free rolling Ivy because she was a decent character in Engage, but won't spend orbs on her.
