Title: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Moon Girard on January 18, 2017, 11:28:47 pm
Figured it's better to have a thread for this instead of always posting in the nintendo thread about it.

Game release on Febuary 2nd for Android & iOS
Main Site: https://fire-emblem-heroes.com/en/
(https://i.imgbox.com/4Ui4mmGr.png)

What is this?
A Fire Emblem Gacha game Battles are like Classic Fire Emblem Battles but with much less units on the field.

What's Gacha?
Gacha=Gotcha it's a lot like Gambling basically it's using Currency to Summon a random Hero to assist you.

Quote
Don't link your account when it asks.

1. Play the tutorial and the three prologue missions. You'll have 18 orbs.
2. Go to the main screen and click the owl. You'll get 2 more orbs. You have 20.
3. Summon all five units, using 20 orbs.
4. If you like the units, great. Link your account and continue to play.
5. If you don't, either:
---- iOS: Delete the entire game
---- Android: Go into MISC settings and clear data, this will save you 40 MB of download, or just delete the game.
---- Rooted Android: File navigation to data/data/com.nintendo~/ and delete the shared_prefs folder. You only will have to re-download 0.1 MB.
6. Repeat 1-5.

Base 5 stars if your looking for them
Ryoma, Lyn, Lucina, Tiki: Dragon Scion, Leo, Azura, Hinoka, Linde, Hector, Minerva, Takumi, and Elise.
Camilla, Robin, Roy and Marth are also good units while not being 5 star based.

I mean it's in the NA trailer and on the main site so I'd hope they wouldn't be that stupid to decide to Censor it after having already shown it off.

Also Camillia's art isn't on any of the site but it's in the code for all the sites except for Japan's

If you're a cheapskate or don't have a strong attachment to particular characters it's easily bearable.

If you use these freemium games as for waifu collection then you're fucked pretty badly.

Post by: Byakko on January 19, 2017, 01:18:03 am
The gameplay isn't the selling point in those games, it's the collecting and the stats maxing. You'll want all your characters to be 5* with all maxed skills, and you'll figure, oh, I have a bit of money, I can pay a bit for the first, then a bit more for the next 5, then a lot more for the next 10.

Post by: Speedpreacher on January 19, 2017, 01:54:16 am
The MMO loop of lording something you have over someone else can get addictive. "Ohohoho, I've got Rare Summer Bikini Lucina! You jelly, fella?"

If you go in with a set character that you want to have and the odds aren't in your favor prepare to question your self-worth a little.

If you find your self rerolling for a 5 Star base or your favorite character your probably gonna get addicted also depends on your luck at pulls.

Post by: Lost_Avenger on January 19, 2017, 09:25:56 am
I'll definitely give this a chance. Really hope they expand the size of the maps when the roster eventually grows. Kind of kills the experience when everyone is close to each other and there is almost no real strategy. It is more of a fire emblem arena melee.

As for them being addictive, I've spent a couple thousand on summoner's war and a couple hundred on record keeper. Some of them are a dollar here or there and they add up. Some of them are packs that could potentially put you ahead in the game. You can usually get by without spending in most of them, but it usually comes at the price of falling way behind when other people can potentially have either better pulls than you or much better resources to work with that you would normally need to grind for hours to get

Post by: Moon Girard on January 24, 2017, 01:35:39 pm
So they have revealed the top 3 so far
Next thursday they have another ranking update
1st is Lyn 2nd is Lucina and 3rd is PoR Ike

Thank god for Lyn Lucina being number 1 for females would be such a snooze fest Wonder how much the vote is split between the two versions of Ike.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 24, 2017, 02:42:27 pm
...well, at least ONE of my votes is in the top 3 right now... #GoTeamLyn
Still, crossing fingers that Caeda gets enough votes to become playable alongside getting on the calendar (hoping that a yet unconfirmed character getting on the calendar increases the chance of said character becoming playable).

Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 24, 2017, 05:42:07 pm
Are you sure? The center unit has a sword icon instead of a lance icon, and last time I remembered, Caeda's default weapon was a lance, a staple for Pegasus Riders back in the old days...if I remember correctly.
Man, it has been years since I last played any Fire Emblem...
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Moon Girard on January 24, 2017, 06:00:22 pm
Her starting weapon in the first fire emblem is a sword it's a odd callback but that's definitely her, you can see her full artwork in the direct behind Marth and in the trailer behind Camilla.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]

wtf shouldnt the votes for ike and marth be combined
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Moon Girard on January 26, 2017, 09:18:19 pm
Marth should since he looks identical in both games but I see why Ike isn't since it's a special outfit I can only imagine the people who are voting for young Ike would be pissed if the votes were combined and buff Ike got the outfit instead since it is the most recent design and vice versa which is why it was dumb to include multiple versions of a character(in certain instances it would make sense like the black knight) on the poll as it just splits votes.

Just so you guys know, Lyn and Lucina are so far ahead of every single other character that voting for pretty much anyone else is almost a waste.  If I were you I'd settle for one of them, but it's your vote and I can't really tell you what to do.

i download the Qoo version and then when i went to the play store to check if it was out it only list Uninstall and Open guessing that's fine.
Also wow my second summon got me a 5 star Cordelia would prefer an actually 5 base though so guess i have to reroll still wasn't expecting a 5 star so quickly though.

Base 5 stars if your looking for them
Ryoma, Lyn, Lucina, Tiki: Dragon Scion, Leo, Azura, Hinoka, Linde, Hector, Minerva, Takumi, and Elise.
Camilla, Robin, Roy and Marth are also good units while not being 5 star based.

Well I hope I get a single 5 star base and/or plenty of great non 5 star bases to make up for it.
Really reminding me of Brave Exvius now.

I joked in my head that I was going to get the Waifu Squad and aim for Tharja, Carmillia and Lucina and then accidentally get a Tiki in the process...

Well somehow I got 2 Tiki's and the rest are meh dudes...one is a 3 star, the other is a 5 star...

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Moon Girard on February 03, 2017, 06:40:51 am
Yeah Luckily Robin seems to be a good unit so the only real downside is having to get him from 3 stars to 5 stars.

Well good news for you guys it's still possible for you guys to reroll if you still want to even if you did link to your mynintendo account found a way to do so when trying to transfer my Lyn account to my iphone unfortunately i lost my Lyn account dicovering this though. But if you go to account management and hit delete all data it will unlink the mynintendo account and allow you to link the mynintendo account again when you get the roll you want only downside is if you got the 10 free orbs from the mynintendo rewards you can't get those again.

3* Saizo
4* Jagen (lol)
4* Clarine
and 5* Tiki

There's a lot of 3 & 4 stars, but screw it.  I managed to get Tiki on my first try, I'm keeping this result.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Darkflare on February 03, 2017, 07:20:38 am
- Sending heroes home
- Greeting your friends
- Given by heroes randomly in the Home menu.

I believe 20 is the cap. You have to prestige them into the next star to continue leveling them up.

if your marth is too powerful (i assume he has a high star rating) and eating up all the exp you can go to equip skills to give him a shittier weapon

Anyone know if it's worth it to spend time and exp leveling up 1 or 2 star units?
Curious since the daily battle thing is only giving 1 or 2 star units, and I was wondering if they're good for using, or just for fusing.

So... is there a use for having 2 of the same 5* unit? I pulled 2 Tikis. It didnt let me merge them.

Do you have both of them favourited?
The game won't let you merge units if they're favourited, and the game auto-favourites 4 star+ units by default.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Lost_Avenger on February 03, 2017, 09:24:19 am
Yup, now they are merged, thank you. Also, found out that if you are overleveled by a certain number of levels, you stop gaining experience. My lv 20 units started gaining experience in the last couple chapters again.

Wish it used a password system instead of linking to a mynintendo account i feel bad about tossing this Roll but i just can't stand Roy.

Got a 5 star Camilla and tired of rerolling with Roy being the only 5 star i get so here's my ID 9817579472 also added a list in the first post with all the IDs posted so far.

That's why I kinda wish unit trading would have existed in FEH, because while you got two instances of Roy you hate, I on the other hand am in dire need of a Roy.

Trading would defeat the purpose of Gacha so i can see why they don't i just wish more companies making Gachas followed Namco's password route where you can assign a password to an account then just give the password to someone else allowing them to retrieve the account without having it be linked to a personal account/social media account.

Damn, so reminding me of my terrible luck in Brave Exvius...

Re-rolled for a good minute until I got units that was atleast good enough and no Base 5 stars.
Finally got a great 6 star DPS(Chizuru) from a Rainbow Crystal thus destroying a good chunk of the early game with her alone and then after forever, I got another Rainbow...fucking Rosa who is way outclassed by my other healing units by the time I get her.

Even today was nothing but disappointment and I shouldn't have bothered outside of getting a 2nd Zidane.
Atleast this game isn't making me want to hurt someone atm.

I got Female Corrin(Is there seriously a male version in this game? Because I only seen Male Robin so I'm guessing that they are the canon(?) versions for this game at the very least... until they get released possibly down the line.

Male Corrin is in he's a 4 star with a sword and Female Robin shows up in Chapter 4 as an enemy she's just not summonable yet. Also Takumi is ridiculously strong he's so damn hard to beat in PvP it's like he's a 4 man team himself.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Lost_Avenger on February 04, 2017, 07:19:54 am
Takumi is broken. He is what mages should be. Marth is op too, but not quite as broken.

Is there a way to make it so you can set your units before a battle like in normal fe? It would make the game better imo. That and increasing the stamina cap or reducing stamina costs.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Darkflare on February 04, 2017, 07:52:24 am
Edit your team and change their order.
Of course, you'll have to know how the stage sets them up.

Yea, the stamina cost is ridiculous in later levels and this becomes more noticeable when you go to the training tower. Right now, the stamina costs are halved for about 2-3 weeks.

Oh and when you realize how you'll suddenly find yourself scraping for orbs. I know they got to make their money but damn.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Hyogo on February 04, 2017, 06:44:57 pm
Regarding orbs, I feel like they should've done it like some other games do, watch an advert, like 30 seconds to a minute long and will reward you a free orb per advert watched, maximum of 5 per day.

This way it'll be a little more forgiving to those who don't feel comfortable investing money into the game and only managing to get 3 star heroes.

Also if I wanted to start over, how would it work on Android? Would I need to make a new Nintendo account so I can link it? or would I need to make a new google play account?

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Xhominid on February 05, 2017, 12:14:07 am
I'm still slowly going through the game, but I do echo the thoughts of Titlin and Hyogo some.

It's honestly the best time to re-roll and get a 5 star period. Before there's any chance of more units clogging up the summon drain(and variants) so I honestly do have to say it's best to re-roll now until you get one so you won't have to worry about trying to get a 3 star or worse to 5 star anytime soon.

And as for Hyogo, I absolutely agree on more ways to gain Orbs. It's weird that they only have one real way to get them...and it's in such a little amount(one per stage? Even with Hard and Lunatic, that seems very small for how quick stages can be completed and how big the summon pool is).

Maybe I more used to the Brave Exvius way, but there seriously need to be more outlets, including PvP and dailies in getting a good amount of orbs, like 5 orbs for completing all the daily tasks for a free summon atleast.
I know there will be updates, but it really should have started that way at the start.

So I gave in and bought some orbs, I got:

Lyn (5*)
Cordelia (5*)
Female Corrin (3*)
Male Corrin (4*)
Olivia (3*)

Really wanted Azura/Takumi, but I'm incredibly happy with this roll and will be good off summoning for a while. Guess I'll just use the orbs I get from now on for EXP bonuses and what not for the time being (which I should have been...).

Yea, the stamina cost is ridiculous in later levels and this becomes more noticeable when you go to the training tower. Right now, the stamina costs are halved for about 2-3 weeks.

Dang, it's only an event? I only skimmed through the patch notes and thought Nintendo was kind enough to change the stam costs for the training stages. Guess I know what I'll be spamming during this event. Heaven forbid I'll have to wait around 4 hours for my stam to fully recharge so I can grind the same 4-5 training/story missions before waiting another 4 hours after the event ends...

I can see most of them being up there. Not sure what a 5* of some of them can do. I know Lucina can kill dragons easily though. Pretty much anything that one shots a Tiki is A+ imo. Takumi is probably top 2. Havent seen a 5* Ryoma yet, but I get wrecked by him if he goes first in story so probably up there
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Andriod]
Post by: Moon Girard on February 05, 2017, 09:36:15 am
Takumi and Ryoma are the 5 star bases you'd see after a few months when power creep started in other Gacha's and IIRC they can't nerf them because of a law Japan has so they just steam roll most of the content as it's not balanced around them they should of held off on releasing them the game is already generous handing out 5 stars as is.

Anyway new mini event starting tomorrow(today?) (https://www.reddit.com/r/FireEmblemHeroes/comments/5s6974/new_mini_event_starting_tomorrow/)

Seems to suggest the last part of the ??? stone is opening up with special maps that have 2 difficulty. Clearing them gives an orb. You can 6 orbs a week, It goes on for 5 weeks and you can net a total of 30 orbs in total.

Havent used a healer yet. I pucked up Draug. He isn't as amazing as Hector, but he isnt bad either. Im tempted to build Nowi over Tiki because of her lightning breath that can hit ranged targets too. She isnt as godly as Ryoma though. Im also building Lilina, but Ive had 4 level ups in a row without a single point going into ajything, but skill points.

Also, Anna ends up decent if you build her up stats wise. She is lacking in skills though if you guys dont get one of the top tier axe users. Her stats as a 5* are higher than Camilla iirc

*3-Star Male Robin (complete with cinematics)
*3-Star Nino

Who knows, maybe I'll FINALLY get Roy next time.

In other news, I also completed today's and yesterday's event battle, so I also have Lissa and Donnel to go with Robin.

Lucky Duck. I really want to have a team with Burning Blade, Awakening, and some other heroes. The only cinematic I got is Male Robin's...

OK, so there's going to be an update that will reveal the final option. You'll get an announcement that will talk about a mode that puts your team against a powerful summon. I think the first one is that narriccist guy, you even fight him in the story.

The results are in for the Fire Emblem Heroes “Choose Your Legends” vote. Ike and Lyn came out on top with 33,871 votes and 49,917 votes on the heroes and heroines charts respectively.

Those two characters won the poll, but Nintendo is showing its thanks in another way. Roy and Lucina, who were next in line for the male and female sides, will also be getting their own “Choose Your Legends” versions.

Goddamn, the Narcian battle in the new special map is tough. lv25 for the first one, you're fucked if you don't have a flying unit because you go through a bottleneck, they just wait for you with archers, mages and flying units, and if you don't one-shot them on each battle you're probably losing one unit, and therefore the whole fight, on the next turn. This on the first week after release. Assholes.

Ok, real talk. Yea, one can easily see how this fight is pretty nasty with that sole choke point being incredibly covered well by the enemy. I was very fortunate to have a team that wonderfully counters that defense. I had my Minerva rile them up by taking out their archer and then have her retreat to heal while enduring the counter attack from the green and blue mage which thankfully did scratch damage due to having an axe and the holy vestments ability triggering. Narcian was shot down quickly by my Tharja when he came over to attack. Now THEY came through the choke point and it was a matter of lining up the right unit for the right enemy.

How come you didn't get the 2 star Subaki from the same day? anyway post what you got for units i'm sure you have a team that can clear the lvl 25 one which will get you a 2 star Narcian who you can then use as the flyer to clear the lvl 35 one though at that point there is probably no reason to beat it other then to say you did or sending him home for feathers since your Narcian would be a 4 star at that point.

Don't skip the massive leveling needed inbetween to get him to that level, seriously. I only now realized that I could use 2000 feathers to up my chars by one star (I thought I read 20000 from a post here earlier and I didn't check) but that it would reset them to lv1, and I'm not sending my only relevant flying unit, 3* Cherche back to 1 from barely reaching 24, plus the leveling system is pretty difficult and irritating. Either stack up on the correct color and shape of gems for one specific character, or play 50 levels with him getting one-shot for half of them to rise by one level per battle if you're lucky.

Oh by the way, could a mod fix the topic title plz ? "Android".

Post by: Byakko on February 10, 2017, 04:07:31 pm
Ooh, got it. And only 200 to go from 2 to 3. ... But most of my cast has a red cross that forbids me from upgrading the low level ones, without telling me why, just going beep (fuck you too, game !) and I'm certainly not sending those above lv20 back to lv1 without an explanation. Do I need to raise everyone to lv20 first ? Because that's just going back to the annoying leveling system.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on February 10, 2017, 04:14:50 pm
yeah, they have a red cross because they're under level 20. you could spend shards to quickly level those characters up to 20 (or close to 20) it's not like you can use them for anything else afaik
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on February 10, 2017, 04:22:50 pm
The shard colors are rotating each day or so in the training tower, apparently. It does force me to wait a whole week if I don't have any for my character (maybe a bit less than a week if "universal shard" is something that can be used by everyone, we'll see tomorrow, but it's still pretty bad)
So this system that makes you wait a week, at launch period, with a weird leveling system, for a high level quest (well, high for launch period), they're not exactly making this easy.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on February 10, 2017, 04:33:13 pm
if you've beat the campaign you probably got a shitload of shards by now. you get 1500 for each chapter you beat on hard from the quests menu (this is only after beating every campaign on normal). you will however need badges, and those rotate on the arena each day like you said. some days you can get badges from every color
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Moon Girard on February 10, 2017, 04:35:43 pm
The rotating Badge system is pretty dumb if you ask me having to wait a week to get a certain badge type to advance my character is such a dumb design.

Don't skip the massive leveling needed inbetween to get him to that level, seriously.

Of course but if he doesn't have the orbs to summon/luck to summon Minerva, Camilla or even Cherche or Beruka,  leveling up a 2 Star Narcian 3 times is his best option if he wants to beat the Hard one. Since Subaki or any other Blue Flier he could get stands no chance of Killing the archer and Tanking the hits from the blue mage and then Narcian since he not only has the type advantage but also Lancebreaker, If he can beat the Normal map i don't see much of a reason for him to beat the Hard Version if he just wants to get Narcian since the 3 star version might have worst stats on level ups and max stats then the 2 star version anyway.

Edit: Now that it was mentioned if he didn't stack up on green badges he wouldn't be able to advance Narcian high enough anyway since the event ends on the 14th and Green badges won't be back in training tower till the 16th i believe.

Oh by the way, could a mod fix the topic title plz ? "Android".

I find waiting for the badge rotations to be bearable. One day of playing through the training tower only should give you plenty enough badges/great badges for the specific type you need (without using stamina potion). With a stacked team, you'll get a good amount of great badges playing through Lunatic. I'd focus on finishing the story on all difficulties for orbs though so you can roll for potential 5*s if you don't have a fairly good team yet.

Actually, I don't even know why...eh, whatevs, I just hope the level, the stats and the type of my unit is what matters the most in the end.
Now...about what units I have:
*Default Story Mode characters: Alfonse (Lvl 7), Sharena (Lvl 3), Anna (Lvl 9), Virion (Lvl 9), Matthew (Lvl 2), Raigh (Lvl 5)
*4-Star: Cecilia (Lvl 14 already), Eliwood (Lvl 2), Ogma (Lvl 1), Fir (Lvl 1), Henry (Lvl 8), Female Corrin (Lvl 9)
*3-Star: Nino (Lvl 12), Male Robin (Lvl 1)
*1-Star Event Characters: Subaki (Lvl 9), Hana (Lvl 1), Felicia (Lvl 1), Lissa (Lvl 12), Sophia (Lvl 9), Donnel (Lvl 1), Gunter (Lvl 1) I do plan to do another last summon before the summon event is over, though, so that may improve my chances for at least the future...

Hopefully they are better than in stones. They were probably the worst lords Ive used (outside of Roy if he doesnt have his sword). They had really low stat caps and were more or less paladins. I assume they are mounted units in heroes?

Thanks, gonna train my Robin to up to snuff then and team him up with Lissa (really helps that she can heal AND deal damage), Henry and especially Cecilia. I mean, I already managed to bring Robin to Lvl 9, so I seem to be making solid progress...I hope.
In other news, nice to see Ephraim and Eirika again.

Yeah, you really have to have a solid team to take on the hero thing. I made it with the skin of my teeth, but they barely scraped 30. You do have some good units on your summon roster, just train them up.

Funny note: I only had Olivia just to bring up Sheena to two spaces. She gives others another chance to move so yeah, she's my anchor when you think about it.

lol no. Lissa barely does any damage and can barely even finish off the weakened targets her teammates attack. She's better off having Gravity so she can at least limit the movement of anything that manages to attack her or paired with a unit that lets her attack and then have her move out of range.

Also, I strongly recommend you use some orbs on your castle to increase XP gain. Later levels take forever to go up without an upgraded castle.

I just recently upgraded mine. I only have 2 lv 40 units so it is worth it. Id recommend doing your initial reroll and then the next sets of orbs you get should probably go to your castle.

Edit:
Another thing I would recommend is that if you get 2 of the same character you like as a 4 or 5*. Dont get rid of them or combine them. Save one in case you get badly rng screwed stat wise like mine did

healers can be useful sometimes, they can deal magic damage (shit magic damage but it's something) and can help you out if youre in a situation in which you can run away to heal and then come back to win the stage. also serra's skill boosts the speed for all your characters, which can get you out of a jam

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Lost_Avenger on February 12, 2017, 08:10:13 pm
Takumi is op. He can counter from any range and iirc, he does more damage as he gets hurt and he isnt weak to any other color(with some weapon exceptions). Hector is probably 2nd and his only downside is his res and movement. Leo is probably 3rd or 4th with Lyn or Tiki being the last of the top 5 people. Leo and Tiki have aoe damaging skills(with both also being good against Hector). Lyn can attack again if she kills something. They only had counter for Takumi that I have seen so far is probably Robin.

Id also put Ryoma, Nowi, Lucina, and a couple others up there since they can counter some of the top tier threats, but arent as godly. Imo anyway. I think the 3rd-10th or so are pretty close together.

That was my 152nd roll :p. First double 5* roll since double Tiki, but I paid for those orbs(2nd account is on bluestacks cause my tablet wont play it. It crashes as soon as I click it)

I wouldn't put Leo in top 5 he's not even the best mage unit with Linde around, i'd put Ryoma above him also Azura should be top 3 for sure since she's extremely strong against red units and if she can't kill a blue or green unit just have her sing to have another unit do it the only real downside to her is she requires you have another strong unit. Her Takumi, Hector and either Ryoma or Tiki is probably the best team you could have right now. Of course Azura seems to be the rarest character in the game as i've only even seen one in Arena where as all the other top tier seems to show up quite often.

Post by: Lost_Avenger on February 12, 2017, 10:10:26 pm
I think Leo's aoe skill is what puts him up a bit higher than most mages(same goes for Tiki). That and his ability to reduce movement to 1. His mobility is pretty nice too. Linde hits harder, but she is pretty frail. Leo isnt exactly super bulky, but I think he brings more to the table at the cost of a lot of damage. Id even put Tiki over her cause Tiki has the aoe and bulkier stats(at the cost of having a weakness to certain characters). Just imo. Edit: Dpes Linde have an aoe? Ive been running on very low sleep, but I thought she only had miracle? I could have sworn she just used an aoe skill on me in training tower?

I see Azura occasionally in arena actually. I kind of forgot about her though tbh. Her attack stat is actually decent too. She would be easy to build an offense around though. Im not really sure how or where to place her. Id say probably top 5. Definitely above Ryoma.

Some of the tier lists have Camilla really up there, but I just dont see why. She has the same aoe as Leo and can double hit, but she gives up her speed to do it. Her stats arent all that amazing either imo. Take her brave axe away to save her speed and she still gets doubled by most threats.

Id put Ryoma near the top 5. Only downside I see to him is his pretty low defensive stats. He is pretty easy to counter with something like Cordelia or most mages. He doesnt have an aoe and his passive only kicks in when he is close to dying anyway. So he has some drawbacks. Great as an offense unit. He is pretty easy to pick off on defense though, but the AI is pretty bad ;P

Also, pulled Camilla with my next set of orbs. Almost lost my account cause of that error though. Make sure you link your account cause the only way to get the connection error I had to go away is to reinstall the game. The 803-3001 error

Peri and Est obtained late were raised as backup while I was upgrading Sharena to 3*, and Matthew to 4* just now.
Love Matthew's poison, but like 3/4 of the time he dealt 0x2 damage at 3* (the poison did help to bypass that a little). It was really shitty even when he was at lv26 (3*), but at 4*, his poison goes from 4 to 7, so that'll probably make up a bit for dealing terrible 0 damage.
Cherche is my only armor breaker that can do anything against those fucking armored knights, which is tough, but she's pretty damn good at it, so she deserved a rank up from 3*.
I also just got Clarine (4*, lv3), and I'm discovering how fucking amazing a healer on a horse can be, even if she has no attack whatsoever, she can reach any place on the map in a flash and it doesn't matter that she's low level because her heal is fixed and she can fuck right off away from danger most of the time.
Also Sharena is so damn good. I really hesitated sending her back to lv1 because she was my main tank support at lv28, but I'm sure she'll be worth the third star (and fourth ASAP).
Generally speaking, I find the skill variety pretty damn good. Poison, shove, armored attack, pull, swap, attack support... There are some really nice skills everywhere.

And I still can't beat the first Narcian map. Team building is rough, grinding the tower back up after upgrading someone's rarity.

Oh by the way, wtf am I supposed to do with those accumulating SPs if my 5* Marth learned all his skills ? It pushed me to rank up those below 5* to get new skills, but for a 5*... ?

Anyone else managed to beat the Narcian hard map at the last minute? I found out the choke point is more of a double edge sword than a complete disadvantage, if you get the two mages and the archer to go through the strait you can stack defensive buffs/heals on a green mage like Cecilia and kill them slowly but surely.

I only just managed to beat the normal by baiting the archer and the casters with Merric and having Jagen rush the guy at the top. One of the only maps that made me feel like I was playing real-ass Fire Emblem in that I had to think tactically and avoid the death of any of my units. More like this, please.

Id like to see them do more in the way of weapon mechanics. I think certain weapons should naturally have ranged and close counters (Ryoma, Xander, Roy, mages, etc) instead of limiting it to just a handful of characters. You could give Ryoma Vantage to replace his ranged counter since he should have it anyway. And then add options for things like spears, long bows, etc that give ranged and closer options.

Id also like to see different versions of characters or additional skill options. Esp since skill points become useless once you max skills. It would add some more variety instead of seeing the same 6 or so units in pvp imo.

And they also need a level up system for stamina

This all the way, I am having fun collecting units (just got both Corrins at the same time), figuring out who benefits who (Sheena and some one who can give her another turn is awesome), and I get to talk to you guys about this stuff and get tips as well. I also get salt looking at you guys and your Takumis and Hector's (any of you guys see that meme edit of here's Johnny but with Takumi or Hector at the door?) At the end of the day, this game is pretty fun to play and talk about.

Any word on when the next update is going to be? Or what the main focus is going to be on? Like Stones in general or just kind of dipping into stones a bit with the next story update?

Edit: Friend code is 2407546676 on my f2p account. Kind of wish they would give us an option to use a friend's hero on a map or something. Seems kind of useless to just have friends for the 5 free feathers?

Heads up that in less than a week from now (Feb. 19th), training tower stamina cost will be doubled.
Quote
-The amount of stamina required to play maps in the training tower will be cut in half.
-The amount of stamina required to equip skills will be reduced to 0.
-During the campaign period, you’ll receive a special one-time log-in bonus of 10 stamina.

Honestly, I think they should just keep training tower where it is at. Esp when you look at how high lunatic mode story stages are. I think they are about where they should be for the low stamina cap. Id only go back to the old amounts when they add some sort of leveling system.

In the meantime, I guess I will start building some of my other units. I kind of want to build a Nino. So Robin, Nino, Olivia, and maybe a healer while the tower is still cheapish

I'm kinda forced to build Anna up as I dont have anyone else with axes thats good,but she sucks so much ugh
Ogma and Est still one shot everything,but Ogma has horrible walking range which means he either gets picked off by ranged stuff or just gets his ass kicked in by spearmen
Also got that broken 5* archer and he seems to be ++atk and +spd which I hear is perfect for him.

Also got 4* version of that slutty Camilla chick but I aint using her as every Camilla in Arena dies in one hit to literally everything.Plus I already have Est around lvl 20 so I cant be bothered to level her up

Finally got through the Narcian quest (easy one). I have 3 units at lv 30+ and the recommended level is 25, and yet I'd still lose anyone in one hit (well, two since most of these assholes attack twice a turn) ; I managed to send Peri to kill the red one on top, then immediately run back (and have Barst pull her one more square to safety), and then two units on the right side, including a flyer, managed to drag Narcian away from the left side on his own, where Marth could one-shot him, then wait for the other horse riding mages to carefully maul them and run away one by one.
I'm not really fond of setups like that that are so much stacked against you - bottleneck with ambush of mages and flyers, almost anyone dies in one hit, one death loses you the whole fight... This isn't so much strategy as it is "fuck it, just level everyone to 35~40 and curbstomp them", only the time limit made it more pressing. I tried this strategy nearly a dozen times, learning to save Peri with Barst pulling her out, before I managed to find the spot that had Narcian stray over the mountain all alone like a dumbass. The mages in the bottleneck just unraveled after that.

I actually finished both Narcian maps not long after they were released. Thank god for 5-star Abel and his ability Aegis, because I wouldn't have survived the maps at all without him. Since Abel is my only good lance unit, I just had him provoke the enemy lance and sword units before retreating and healing up like no tomorrow. From there on out, I basically just lured Narcian into Roy, and had Abel shish kebab everyone else with the brave lance+. Kinda sucks that you get Narcian at only 3 stars though.

Now i'm just saving up my orbs for when the Ephraim/Eirika and Seliph/Julia focus' comes around. Not much else to do though aside from training up some weaker units and trying to get feathers.

if you really wanted any of those characters you shouldve restarted the game until you got one of them. with one of the focus options (which ends soon) you're twice as likely to get roy or lyn. it'll be even more difficult after that

Roy is pretty average. If his weapon had a ranged option like it should, he would be pretty decent. I dont think shove is all that useful. If he had some kind of attack based skill (sol, luna, either, astra, etc), he wouldnt be too bad since he has some decent bulk (even though he is somewhat slow for an attacker). As more powerful axe users enter the game, his triangle adept would be more useful, but with as common as red units are, his ability actually hurts him more than it helps imo. Id like to see him have seal speed or threaten att or something more useful.

Im starting to see people using the rally bot option for offense more (using Nino/tharja with something like Lyn, olivia, etc). Its nice to see the meta evolve beyond just using the op units

Yeah, from what I heard and seen, there are many ways to easily take on Roy. He's just there for the sake of being there, heck even his father can do better than him all because of of Roy's shove ability and Tri-Adept, you either go after green or nothing at all. But good gravy there are a lot of sword units that can do better than Roy.

I re-rolled for Takumi after reading up some things about him and later got Tiki. Still kind of struggling with Chapter 9 content and that Narcian event, but I think I'm still rather under-leveled (18~25). This game is quite fun though. Am I right in thinking it's easier than the official games?

1: you already linked to a mynintendo account, which means you won't lose your progress. your phone or tablet could get destroyed and you could still install fe heroes on another device, link to your mynintendo account and lose no progress whatsoever.

2: i really suggest you start over, be it on your existing device or a different one. if you get roy or lyn or some other roll you're satisfied with, then just make a different mynintendo account and link to that (dont link until that point). keep in mind that the focus will change soon and your odds of getting roy or lyn will be halved so you better get going

Ah, that's what I thought, I've been spamming floors 6 and 7 for my lv30+ guys and I haven't seen anything of this shape. And even at these floors I still haven't seen a single one of the wider level up crystals, and barely a handful of the thinner ones, regardless of the day, which makes it even more annoying to level up my characters (I have to do it the hard way, not through the level up menu).

They are still somewhat uncommon even on the lunatic stages. I have hundreds of the smaller badges, but maybe 20 or so each of the large ones.

If you didnt get a 5* or a top tier character (or your favorite), Id reroll. Esp if you have a rooted phone. You can completely play the game f2p if you get a nice starting roll.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on February 15, 2017, 04:55:31 am
Nice.
On EXP gain, the very first thing that this needs REAL BAD is to maintain EXP gain even if the unit is killed. You go on a difficult stage (like 1~5 levels above your average if you have one tough unit and a few rookies in training) because it's the most rewarding EXP wise, you defeat an enemy with your weaker unit, you gain a level, and then that unit gets killed just before you win => you lose that level. Well that's a good way to make sure your weaker units will never challenge stronger foes because they'll lose the EXP when they get killed anyway ! Same when you lose the entire fight - not gaining EXP when you challenge a map 15 levels above you and get curbstomped is expected, but if you lose just on the final clinch, it's just plain awful.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on February 15, 2017, 05:11:51 am
Losing all EXP is awful yeah, but losing either hero or the whole battle should still incur into a penalty. That's just the spirit of FE, units aren't supposed to be expendable.
That is a good decision imo. Training tower costs are where I think the story costs should be as well. I dont think any battle should be more than 8 stamina.
Higher costs are fine, what isn't fine is the ridiculously low stamina cap. There should be a mechanic to level up the castle or the main character or something just to make it go beyond 50.

but losing either hero or the whole battle should still incur into a penalty. That's just the spirit of FE, units aren't supposed to be expendable.
Pretty much all classic JRPGs give EXP only after you won the battle, and I remember some that didn't give EXP to those who died (I don't know any other RPG that does this on-the-go leveling in the middle of the fight, in fact), but a mobile game like this based on stamina, a currency that doesn't exist in classic RPGs (of course your playtime isn't restricted !), should absolutely change this point of view. Because what this becomes is that it basically punishes you for trying to fight a hard battle, because you lose stamina, which you refill either by waiting and not playing or spending your stock of a special items of sorts (stamina potion). Now obviously this is common for a mobage, to make you pay money to try harder (buying those refill potions) or just plain pay through it, but when they specifically made a system where you can level up in the middle of a fight like that, and especially considering how hard it is to otherwise gain EXP, taking this gain out of your hands after pretending to give it to you is just infuriating. It frustrates you out of trying to fight a slightly hard battle, just in case you end up losing your hard earned gain. And for F2P players, it's a motive for dropping out of the game.

The mini guide the game has even tells you this, complete with the order they rotate in.

Update came with new paralogue missuons to get a few extra orbs. Recommend you take a look at the challenges since they ask for you to have specific characters to get the rewards.

Datamined stuffed from this update looks like a generic banner to pull on and FRobin as the next Grand Battle

Woot, guessed right on that, A lot of people were guessing Navarre or Zephiel.

Hopefully she is as good as male Robin cause I honestly dont know what she does. Only fought her in story and she usually died pretty easily. I'll probably keep pulling on the current banner cause I dont see anything in the focus that I really want. First pull was all 3*s so far. Managed to get a couple dragons on my alt from it though(female Corrin, and 2 adult Tiki's(one came from a second 5 summon and was a base 4 at least). Nice to see the game getting more content

Used the 10 orbs you get from the Paralogues and quest plus $20 got me both Eirika and Julia, which were the only ones I wanted, so I'm pretty stoked.

Using Eirika and Julia in conjunction with someone like Female Corrin and another AoE buffer/debuffer is going to be an interesting combination, which I see a lot of potential in.

im gonna bump kagero up to five stars. she brutalizes infantry units and in the matches i've had online she narrowly survives against takumi (while killing him or almost killing him), and since her special makes her deal more damage the more she's been damaged she becomes even deadlier. she's kind of shit against most other unit types though, but then again most units in the game are infantry type
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Lost_Avenger on February 16, 2017, 09:22:43 am
I used most of my feathers bringing my 3*s to 4*s. I want Kagero, but havent had any ninja pop up yet aside from mathew.

What do the twins have for skills? I havent seen them in pvp yet. Everyone is still running the same 6 or so units(which is the biggest downside to rerolling is that everyone rerolled for the same units I guess)

Edit: Pivot, drag back, a weapon with rally attack, and rally speed. Kind of meh. Threaten and seal defense(which dont stack do they?), a 2 turn weaker luna, and a rally attack built into the weapon. Useful in places, but I dont see them getting a ton of usage unless you really like them. Though I can see pivot and pull back being useful though. Her stats are a bit low though. About as Bulky as Roy?

I decided to re-roll to attempt to get Male Corrin again (RNG hates me so much) but I get this.

I think I should keep this roll and hope to get Corrin during story progression & such, Tharja's actually pretty decent, right?

Oh yeah, she's a good red book user and she's pretty darn fast as well. Dishing out damage and her special boosts her output as well. The only downside to her is...never try to fight a good lance unit with her, you're going to have problems with that. If you need someone with strong attack and speed and uses magic, Tharja's your girl. Male Corrin is also pretty good as a leader unit, only a few I think can outmatch him in some things, that and he's kinda frail. The same can be said for Female Corrin as well, being a breath user she can dish out damage and help out others with their attack as well.

I really want to go against the meta and have been using Felicia with my Eirika, Julia, and Fem Corrin build, but good lord she can't even put out the numbers like the majority of the characters can. She's a decent support and has an incredibly powerful special attack, but she's so limited until then. I'm going to eventually 5* her cause I want to commit to this, but it's so hard not to go back to using Kagero or heaven forbid, Takumi.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on February 17, 2017, 01:09:05 am
Felicia is better off taking care of tome users which is where she excels at. Her speed often makes her attack twice so she easily gets her special up. But other than that, yea she's more support than actually doing damage. The dagger debuff is nice to do a little more damage with anyone else at least.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on February 17, 2017, 03:55:18 am

Quick question, as you guys may have picked up, I know next to nothing about the FE series before Heroes
I've got Frederick, tall guy in blue armor, horse riding with axe
When I level his skills, his quote is (something like) "I shall test my new strength right away, picking up pebbles !"
While I find that quote absolutely hilarious -- what the hell is that about ?? Most extreme sass I've ever read, crippling self deprecation, or what ?

Ah, I see, thanks.

Ive been told that stats are actually decided at lv 1 through ivs, so wouldnt it make more sense to just go ahead and add the difference between 4* and 5* to your unit (like a class change) when you unlock your potential? Or is it just a reset to make you use more stamina and maybe invest in orbs?

Merged stats are lost. The game even tells you this.

Its quite cheap actually.20 feathers to go from 2 to 3 and 200 feathers to go from 3 to 4
The emblems are also easy to get as they dont need greater emblems,only regular ones

Also just realised increasing someone in rarity also unlocks additional skills for that character.Which is pretty neat.Maybe Anna won't end up so underwhelming at the end

Unlocking new skills and weaponry is the main reason to promote heroes :P

I haven't used a single feather yet, I'm saving them to promote Chrom to 5*. I'm not particularly fond of him, but he gains acces to Falchion and Eather whereas other 4* only gain a small boost to their main weapon and bland skills.

Yeah, hold the character's icon to get to their status and then the full list of skills tells you what can be unlocked at higher star ranks. It's critical to know who you actually need to level up, especially if you're starting from a low rarity.

it's 200 to go from 2 to 3 and 2000 to go from 3 to 4. i'm biased because i'd rather favor characters from fire emblem games i've already played and because the designs and story for the story characters are kind of lame

I got a second 5-Star Takumi in my last roll.  Which is fine and all, but it kind of feels like a waste.

I did also get a 4-star Stahl and Nino though, which is great because I really needed decent red and green heroes so I didn't have to keep soloing everything with Takumi.

Hm, I kinda wonder how exactly it determines how many points you get for a successful defense. Obviously it's by how well the defense was, but I'm interested in knowing what happened that gave me 260 points compared to the 250 from last week.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on February 18, 2017, 05:06:03 am
You were challenged by someone marginally stronger than last week. I imagine the absolutely highest score is when a strong team picks you as the "begginer" option and gets curbstomped by your units.

Why are Lucina and Marth above Lyn and Ryoma? I know Lucina is good, but I wouldnt put her in her own tier. No Leo either and he is a pretty good. Also dont see Adult Tiki who is usually placed around loli Tiki (usually a tier below). Probably the tier list I disagree with the most :p but yeah, sharena is decent

Im guessing they rate his ability a bit higher than I would. I only saw the first part of the 2 lines. I agree with most of the lower parts of the tiers though. I think Lucina, Ryoma, and Lyn should all be in the same tier though. But should Lucina be considered the same tier as Takumi, Azura, and Hector though? I just dont see it. I think Cordelia should be just below Azura as well. I think Leo should be in the same tier as Tharja if not slightly higher.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on February 19, 2017, 04:46:15 pm
Being effective against more than just color advantage is also a huge bonus in ranking - anti-dragon in the case of Falchion users. Hector is the top of his type, Takumi has the range and the speed, but the likes of Lucina can be great at their type and go beyond it. It's "maxing out a couple of stats past the limits" vs "really good in all stats + a couple things not even on the list of stats".
Others that have similar features (Robin being effective against colorless) but much lesser stats are way below in the ranking, so it's more like a gimmick for them but they're still easy to trap ; it's another story when there's that and high everything else. There's no easy way to handle that beside having two or three people trap them and gang up on them. It's the same strategy for Hector and Takumi, but they're not higher.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Lost_Avenger on February 19, 2017, 10:08:57 pm
Im really hoping they put some kind of mechanic in to balance out the meta. I know they cant nerf Takumi, but maybe add some bow breakers (are there any in now?) Or more units like Robin that counter colorless units. That way we start seeing more than a handful of units in arena. I was doing the arena challenges and fought a team of Azura, 2 Takumis, and Hector. Ive seen videos of 4 Takumi teams (had to be whales). Maybe they can buff units in the future as well, but when you have hundreds of potential characters, a more diverse skill spread would probably be better.

Also part 3 of the event map has been released. You can easily grab 12 orbs right now (14 with the daily log in) if you complete both versions of the event map and 6 of the Weapon Mastery quests that give out 1 orb each.

The missions don't care how many members are in your team as long as they're all the weapon it asks you(i.e Lance missions can be done with a team of 3 Lance users without a 4th member) Which is great if you're short on a particular weapon type.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on February 22, 2017, 10:19:05 pm
It would have been cool if they gave Female Robin a different weapon, much like what they did with Corrin. They could have given her the Levin Sword which could have acted like Ryoma's Raijinto, but then again I don't think we would need another sword user considering how saturated that weapon class is already.

Takumi won't help you if she has an advantage against colorless units like Male Robin does.

In the Lunatic version of 4-5, she uses Rexcalibur so unless they opt to giver a unique tome of her own at 5* which gives her advantage over colorless units (in which case they should have just given her Gronnraven) or change her weapon completely for the playable version, I'm pretty sure she'll end up having Excalibur as her final weapon which means she's basically a green archer unit that deals magical damage.

Robin map is out, and once again you cannot have any of your units die. Took me a few tries, but I was able to beat the Hard mode map using Lilina, Camilla, Kagero, and Nowi.

A Red mage with high attack and res will be a huge help with this map. You will need to get rid of the Green Axe unit as fast as possible. Then use Takumi/Kagero/another Red Mage to take out Robin. If your Red Mage's res is high enough, they'll be able to tank the enemy Red and Blue Mage's attacks despite the weapon disadvantage. I would also suggest to bring a Green unit with good enough res to aggro and tank the Red Mage's attack or they'll end up going to your (the now low health) Red Mage.

My next turn involved using Kagero to take out the Blue Mage, then used Lilina's Special attack to overkill the Blue Lancer, then proceeded to use Camilla to finish off the last mage.

At least that's one way to do it. I'm pretty sure there are more optimal ways of going about this, but a win is a win.

Here's the map layout to help you guys out.
(http://i.imgur.com/LU7kSiJ.png)

As for Robin, her weapon is Gronnwolf/Gronnwolf+ instead of Rexcalibur. Special attack is Glowing Ember/Ignis and skills are Defiant Res and Blue Tomebreaker (as if being a green unit wasn't already enough to be a counter to Male Robin and Linde).

Okay, since the new focus claims to be characters specifically made to counter Fem Robin, and I already have two of them (4-Star Fir and 3-Star Adult Tiki), how much do those two characters actually help in the map? I'm currently in the process of leveling them up.

Just bruteforce your way around. The map layout isn't as lopsided as Narcian's and your main heroes should be stronger.

I liked the other one better, it was easier to figure out. Surprisingly pulled it off on my second attempt.

Looks like key to this one is to have a team with High Res(And as always preferably having them in their 40s). Took Kohaku's advise to get the axe unit out first by exposing Marth to take the first strikes fortunately counter attacking the axe unit to death in the process. On the next turn, I pulled Marth out of there using his Escape plan ability to make sure he wouldn't be targeted and positioned Felicia and Julia to attack everything that inevitably got close. After blindsiding the Lance unit with Julia all that was left was to exploit the high res of those two to tank the remaining mages for the win.

Peri didn't do shit.

Ya, I wouldn't use that focus. Tiki might help, but I've read that Fir was just terrible.

The Battling Robin banner is baffling like they wanted to give people units to help with the map i get but they leave one of the best units for this map off the focus Niles. Hawkeye is on the banner because he has high Res and can tank mage hits but Niles has a higher Res then Hawkeye and also the ability to one shot them on the counter hit since he attacks at a range as well. Then if Niles initiates the attack he gets another 6 points in Res and he has a Skill that gives his team plus 4 res when they are in battle.

Post by: R565 on February 23, 2017, 03:06:23 pm
Yeah, Fir is just baby's first sword unit. She's so bare bones that it's a shame to even use her for anything other than taking out units. No PvP value at all, which is a shame really. Also about the grand battle, Sheena for the win and tanking those hits...

FIrst off, have people in the team that can take a beating from mage units (people with high Res), second I would stick with having Sheena in there because she's a tank for a reason...slow but can take a beating (from non-red units). If Ryoma is your highest lvl unit then you'll have an even more difficult time because you have to be on your P's and Q's if you have the same lvl as the other units. Also I would suggest removing Est from the team and have either Olivia or another unit that can attack from a distance (unless of course you have her skills on her).

I went with one of my top teams (around lv35) on the lv25 map and I still had troubles. There's five of them who can almost all gang up on the first unit that steps out of the gate, and one death is instant loss. You can't scatter to spread them out and mitigate the damage because they're close enough that they can gang up on one unit and ignore your spread, and even a tank at the gate with two healers in the back couldn't chase them around without risking the healers' safety the mages can take out the healers from over the wall and you could only kill one mage at a time.
The axe unit next to the hole is easily the first to kill (you can take any horse user), but whoever can get him has to then spend the rest of the fight hidden in a hole because of the beating they take right after. Then mages. Archers aren't even good enough to survive any mage counterattack.

Post by: Lost_Avenger on February 23, 2017, 11:51:18 pm
I used Camilla to lure the lance unit, red mage, and robin to the lower left (lance unit went last). This moves the axe user and the blue mage toward the top left corner of their range. Then I had Leo (move to where your maid is) hit the axe user (weakening it and then I had Tiki kill him (weaken first so she wont get her res lowered). This makes the blue mage attack Leo(almost killing him, but gives Leo his aoe). Then I pull Camilla back and heal her (this forces the remaining units to go for Tiki with one of the mages aiming for Camilla. Then it is just clean up. Main thing is to have them focus on a tanky unit like Camilla and either spread them out or kill em all.

My team was Lisa (4* lv 32), Loli Tiki (lv 40), Leo (lv 40), and Camilla (4* lv 40). Took a few tries to figure out how to split up the ai and not lose a unit. Had to switch to my stronger heal (I normally use the 7 heal for both target and healer).

Post by: Kohaku~★ on February 24, 2017, 01:51:37 am
Yeah, this map can be literally done just using 3 units if need be. My Nowi just stood there and looked pretty while the other 3 did everything else.

Also if anyone's curious, here are Female Robin's max stats as of 5* Lv40:

HP - 40
Atk - 39
Spd - 29
Def - 29
Res - 22

These are neutral stats and for the most part very underwhelming. I don't think Female Robin or any characters gained through Daily or Special maps get the IV treatment like most units who are summoned and instead are neutral across the board. Can anyone confirm this and if this also applies to story characters like Sharena?

Oh, nice.
Limitations will probably be the type of all skills, A / B / C / weapon (probably not, unless splitting available weapons by color is enough) / support / passive, and the availability being limited by star ranking is likely to remain no matter what. Someone would have to comb through the characters so far to list the skills of each type to see if there's any combination that's too OP. Stuff like "changing the color advantage", "double range" and "effective against armored / flying / horse units" would be the most interesting to build up your specific waifu but we'll see if that's included. Beside those advantages, I don't know if there's any specific skill that's too broken.

Yea, F-Robin is the perfect counter to Ursula, but the biggest threat of the Grand Hero battles so far have never been the bosses themselves.

I'm willing to wait and see her overall viability, but otherwise, I think my Julia should be able to handle that.

Id be more than willing to give up a couple units to pass vantage on to someone. Esp Hector :p. Or passing tome breaker to Hector (or sword breaker). Etc. It will probably break part of the meta, but you could start getting bowbreaker on more units to counter Takumi more (not counting units like Nowi, Robin, Kagero, etc that already sort of counter him)

What would be the best strategy for the Female Robin event? Defeating that axe fighter ASAP seems to be the generally agreed norm, but one-shoting him as Takumi seems to be a bad idea, since he then gets one-shoted by the other units...

Get everyone in a good position that makes sure they don't get hit more times than needed. Takumi I would use to pick off people in one hit, and for the mages get up close and attack so they can't counter. Make them come to you, and pick them off when possible.

You can do one of two things, use a Mage (Red one preferably) with high res to one-shot the Axe Fighter. Or use a Sword user to bait the enemy next to the entrance and have someone with Draw Back (like Nino or Sully) pull the Sword user back, though honestly that's a lot more risky due to allowing the other Mages to get into position to snipe your units behind the walls if you're not quick enough to reposition yourself, not to mention that Blue Mage could just end up one shotting your Sword person if their Res isn't high enough.

Also remember, you have an artificial time-limit here. Under no circumstances should you let any of the enemies have their specials charged. Unless you'll be able to take them out before they use it, chances are none of your units are going to survive unless they have high defenses or the AI is dumb enough to attack someone they are weak against.

As for your team:

Cecilia is honestly not a good choice as Female Robin has the advantage over her due to her weapon being good against Calvary units. Not to mention Cecilia has pretty average Res for a Mage and isn't as reliable for tanking the enemy Mage units.

Male Robin is also in the same boat due to not only a Green Unit having advantage over a Blue one, but Female Robin also has Blue Tomebreaker which makes Male Robin useless and will probably be a bystander until you take care of Female Robin and the Axe Fighter.

Adult Tiki isn't a bad choice due to her ability to counter from any range and being a Red unit in general. However keep in mind her Res is fairly low and won't be able to take much of a beating from the Mages.

While Takumi might sound like a good choice, it's actually quite the opposite. Takumi has really low Res and most of the time he won't be able to reliably one shot any of the mages without taking damage himself. Unless you don't have anything better, I would suggest replacing him with a decent Mage or even a Tank.

Don't bother. Seriously, level your units. Anyone that reaches 20 should have their rarity increased up to 4* (5* costs too many feathers it's worth far less than 10 4* units), and then max your 4* and 5* units as much as you can toward the max which is lv40. Just spend your time in the training tower.

You need to play the story to unlock the normal / hard / lunatic levels of the tower, floor 10 unlocks when you finish stage 9 of the story. You're saying you haven't even played the normal difficulty of the story mode, not even chapter 3 to unlock up to floor 4 ? Not even chapter 1 to unlock the first two floors ?? I mean, floors 1 and 2 are only worth it if you're under lv10, but for the whole tower to be locked, you haven't even finished chapter 1, why are you even thinking of these lv25/35 special maps !

Well my only other options for Blues to promote were Sharena, Donnel and Subaki and i needed a Blue unit who could take a hit since Takumi, Julia and Eirika ain't tanking anything so it's not like i had any other option to Promote since I'm fine with the Red, Green and Colorless units i have.

I just didn't think it was possible to have two negative stats if she was just -atk i wouldn't have cared since she's nothing more then a wall for Takumi anyway.

I have 22,000 feathers now, but I'm not really sure if promoting Chrom is a good idea anymore. I pulled Julia so his Falchion wouldn't be my only anti-dragon weapon, his IV spread is meh (-SPD/+RES) and there's simply better red units I might roll down the line.

I spend all my feathers bringing up low ranking units to 4*. My best team is 2 5* and 2 4* all at lv40, they only have trouble against all 5* lv40 teams with broken units in PvP, and lv40 missions with 5 units. I like to raise several units that I like to something decent, rather than full maxing one unit, and I don't have one single broken unit worth bringing to 5* anyway. 20k feathers is too much for just one or two units, and I've raised like a dozen 2~3* to 4* by now.
But now I have no other way of improving the shit RES/DEF stats of those units that die in one shot from enemies 5 levels below them.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on February 28, 2017, 05:49:47 pm
having a bunch of random units at 4 star rarity and at a relatively high level is the best choice if you want to deal with any of the surprise quests or maps

for example a datamine of march's quests shows that one of them is beating some story map on lunatic with four armored units
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on February 28, 2017, 06:13:22 pm
Oh wow. Yeah, flying units can still be dealt with in close combat so having anti-flying isn't absolutely necessary (it's still very efficient) but raising armor breakers is super important because those fuckers just straight up nullify a lot of things as long as you're not five levels above them. I think I have 3 good armor breakers.
Also I realize that there's a lot of HP up, def up and I assume res up skills, so inheriting skills might help the squishier units. I don't really grasp yet how effective those skills are on the units that have them, we'll see when inheriting is available if it makes a difference.

So after finally getting 20,000 Feathers i advanced my FCorrin to 5 stars and it turns out she's -Atk and Def talk about crap luck.

You primarily use Female Corrin as a debuffing tank rather than a straight out attacker so an IV like that isn't bad as it ups her tankiness especially against Falchion users. If anything I would have been more worried if she was -Spd as she's pretty fast for a character of her type.

Once the inheritance starts pretty much anything below 3 is gone on sight unless it's a character I like

Now that i look at my post i should of added the negative sign in front of Def since it makes it seem like she is -Atk and +Def when she is actually -Atk, -Def and +Res.

Have you checked what her other boon is? While it is possible to have 2 negative IVs, it's always balanced out by having 2 positives so you can't have more negatives than positives and vice versa.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Moon Girard on February 28, 2017, 07:30:01 pm
According to the IV site she has no other Boon unless they screwed up her stats, i know she was 19 HP, 21 Atk ,6 Spd ,7 Def ,7 Res at lvl 1.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on February 28, 2017, 08:01:58 pm
Your Corrin's attack is neutral so yours is +Res/-Def. If you subtract 13 from her attack you would get 8 which is a normal IV at 5*.

kind of wish we had an option to use skill points to either offset the loss from our banes or to reassign the bane to something else. Ive seen people getting -spd or -att Lyns which severely limit what she can do. Esp when people are putting actual money into the game and finally get that Hector they want, but he has -att +spd or something
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on March 03, 2017, 04:32:18 am
That's the deal with gatchas, specially if the units can have different stats. Luck of the orbs in this game, they should do a challenge where you use bad units against good units. I really do like Sheena, good stats all around, she's just slow with armor...(one reason why I team her with Olivia). I hope people can come up with awesome team combinations and show them off with PvP.

Edit: I wonder if people have Olivia and Azura in one team boosting a Takumi or a Hector?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on March 03, 2017, 05:09:31 am
One team combination I would experiment with Sheena is Olivia/Azura, Hector, and Elise/another armor unit. Olivia/Azura for obvious reasons while Sheena and Hector can keep each other buffed with their respective armor unit centered AoE buffs. You can use Elise (or any other healing unit with Gravity) to keep everyone healed up or use Gravity to slow enemies down to have Hector and Sheena catch up to them. You can also replace the healer for another armored unit to maximize Sheena and Hectors AoE buffs.

Speaking of which, I'm currently building an entire team of horseback units.

(http://i.imgur.com/kS2eyM8.png)
why yes....I did spend money on this game...

Since they're all the same unit, they all benefit from Gunter's Hone Cavaly buff (+6 to Atk/Spd to adjacent allies) and Olwen's Ward Cavalry (+4 to Def/Res within 2 spaces of allies). Eldigan is the powerhouse of the team with his huge base stats and is just there to tank and/or kill everything. Elise is also there to add flexibility with her huge attack stat for a healer (45 with Atk IV), so she can either attack distant enemies with Olwen, slow them down with Gravity, or heal everyone up (especially Eldigan with his Fury passive).

Went to go 5* a 4* unit and found out they all have att down banes. All of my good 4*s. Robin, Camilla, Nowi, Fem Corrin, Marth, Cordelia, etc. Im not sure if a Nowi with 8 less att is viable in pvp

Was looking to get one of the focus, got Takumi...well, looks like I can't give Takumi users grout anymore, since I got him now.

Edit: Apparently, the last option is a voting gauntlet where people vote and play for an army of their choosing, friends even help you get more stuff...10 battle flags...but at least you can battle with a friend unit that's on the same team. This sounds like Splatoon's voting battle only you need flags to participate...oh yeah, only the winner of a match can get a vote. 3v3, only using your leader, ally, and vote captain.

what are you guys using for your iv calculator? The ones Im using dont have accurate info for Cordelia. Mine would reset to lv 1 with 19 hp, 14 at, 4 spd, 4 def, 6, res. The one Im using says she is high hp, Extremely low att(lowest they have is 16(I assume this includes the weapon? The other says 9 attack(I assume without the weapon?), one says really low spd(9 is average lol. The other says 4 is average(Imma trust this one), low defense, average res. So Im going to just combine the two and assume she is +hp -def?

Edit: It is 9, I had a brave lance equipped. So they were both accurate

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on March 03, 2017, 07:09:10 pm
lv40 team : 5* Marth, 5* Peri, 4* Gordin, 4* Raven. The two 4* can hit twice when attacking but they're otherwise squishy like wet paper, so it's pretty much a blitz attack formation (adding Peri running all over the field), and I'm screwed against stuff like lv40 armored units and mages.
Then all 4* : Sharena lv37, Frederick lv35, Mobin lv35, lv33 Saizo. Fred can handle armored units this time. I love Saizo, but he's also a wet paper noodle and his poison can't kill so he rarely gets an actual kill for EXP (he's great to make sure someone else gets the kill though). I'll have to plug a healer for him some day, I have a nice Clarine, switching out Sharena when she's leveled.
After that in the 20s I'm building a Cecilia, Reinhardt, Palla, Jeorge (all 4* except the new Reinhardt). Jeorge and Reinhardt have great specials to ensure a kill. I wanted to build some armored people (4* Draug and Effie, 3* Gwendolyn) but they either die or can't reach the enemies to kill them so they never level up.

My main arena team is 4* Nowi and Olivia and 5* Camilla and Julia. The real core are Nowi and Julia. Nowi is extremely useful to bait and damage enemies because she can counter from any distance and Julia usually finishes whatever she's dragged in with a single attack (it's extremely rewarding to see her do like 50-100 damage with dragon fang).

So, are you ready for World War Waifu? this shit sounds convoluted af.

My main team is Ogma,Takumi,Anna and Est and its suprisingly good at defending.Haven't lost a defense yet,although so far I did lose 2 attacks cause I got countered well

My 2nd team is Hana,Bartre,Jakob and Robin(In fights,Jakob is either really amazing,or completely useless,there really is no middle ground for him.And as I'm levelling him up he seems to end up being useless in more and more battles which is worrying)

My 3rd team is Hawkeye,Tiki,Catria and Clarine . Catria seems a bit better than Est,Clarine is my first time using a healer so I cant really compare her to anything but she's pretty great,and Hawkeye and Tiki are amazing so far.I'll probably smack Hawkeye into my main team and replace Anna with him later

If anyone else has a unit request, I'll keep an eye out. The only thing I have to ask for is for you to make a fresh Nintendo ID and PM me the details so I can link it to the account right away if I do get something. The only reason I ask for it is because of the whole "error code 803-3001." Can only keep the units for a few hours without a Nintendo ID before I have to delete the account.

So if I'm reading this right, the special PvP mode will be 3 on 3 with a character of your choosing (the left most character of your first team), a unit from one of your friend's, and either a random unit from your or the same friend's army.

I'll be joining Team Eirika, but I can already tell everyone will be flocking to Team Lucina. It's a good thing the prizes aren't all that great.

Post by: Darkflare on March 06, 2017, 04:21:48 am
I wouldn't be surprised if your friends have to be in the same team as yours to use their unit.

Awakening and Fates + Marth and Roy(and later Ike) will always have the advantage in these popularity things when it comes to the number of people joining their teams.  That said, if Splatoon has taught me anything is that the most popular does not always win(And that Callie wins lol) especially since players still have to win their battles for votes to count. Although, teams that have a character that is viable will have another edge since using the leader will award a few more points for the vote.


Fuck it, I'll join the sheep and go Lucina too.

Even if you guys keep the lead on Chrom, it'll be a pyrrhic victory. Lucina is going to steamroll the finals. I'll use my remaining  flags to score high in this round and then jump in the Lucina bandwagon.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on March 10, 2017, 10:07:04 am
Took me a bunch of tries, but finally did it on Lunatic.

(http://i.imgur.com/nD6RYWx.jpg?1)

For those who don't have a Hector to counter attack everything to death, this is what I did.

I took in a Red mage with high attack (Lilina), a buffer (Eirika), a tank (Camilla), and an attacker (Cordelia), though Camilla ended up doing most of the attack.

Anyways, I positioned the team in a way where Camilla and Lilina could make use of Eirika's speed and attack buff. I had Lilina one-shot the green armor (even with 53 Atk, the green armor unit will surivive with 1 HP left, hence the need for the attack buff). Then had Camilla position herself to the second cracked all where Ursula will target her instead. With the speed buff, Camilla was able to avoid being doubled and tank Ursula for minimal damage. The bottom Thief will then break the wall directly above it.

During the next round, I had Camilla go up and kill the Thief at the top while Cordelia placed herself in front of the now broken wall. The Red Cavalier, Ursula, and the Thief formed into one line, getting essentially funneled into the tunnel. The Red Cavalier attacked Cordelia and immediately got wasted with no damage taken. After tanking a hit from Ursula, the Thief then moved upward in front of Cordelia and ended the turn due to clever positioning that he couldn't attack anyone.

I then moved Cordelia to the left and out of the way and had Camilla take out the Thief. Camilla tanked one more hit from Ursula and then was taken out quickly in the next turn.

The key to this battle is taking out the green armored unit as quickly as possible and having a green unit that can tank a variety of hits is essential. Camilla fits the bill here quite well with her mobility and high defense and resistance.

Post by: Darkflare on March 10, 2017, 05:16:15 pm
Yea, I don't think I have the right units to do the Level 40 one. I just hope Ursula doesn't end up being an amazing unit because that would be an extra 2000 feathers I would have to spend.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Erroratu on March 10, 2017, 11:37:59 pm
I only have one unit at level 40 (Takumi) and he isnt doing much good on this stage atm in fact he's usually the first to get fucked
I cant even finish the lvl 30 version because I apparently can't finish the goddamn level without 1 unit dying
Which sucks cause Ursula is an evil woman with creepy af eyes and therefore automatically a 10/10 and I cant fucking grab her

In other news,Chrom took over Ephraims lead but we got it back in under an hour or so,and Ephraim is leading again by a swell number
This is a bit worrying because if Chromdudes do a push in the final hour Ephraim team might not respond in time and we may lose our shit
I'd rather not lose my shit as I am lacking those magical feathers and that 500 feather bonus for winning would be nice
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on March 11, 2017, 05:14:19 am
i got through the harder map
- 5 star level 40 tharja to take out the green armor, red horse and ninja shitheads (she can survive one hit and deal pretty good damage in return)
- 5 star level 38 sheena to block paths and lure ninja friends
- 4 star level 36 female robin to one shot ursula (needs to have 31atk)
- 4 star level 33 lissa to heal tharja and sheena

the harder part is that the red horse does a lot of damage to sheena, but lissa healed her back to full health every time. if you're not sure what to do with this map and really want to beat it on lunatic i suggest you do everything you can to bring up female robin to that level and find a combination that works out

team ephraim won. congratulations and sorry that you're about to lose to lucina, who is best and most courageous

#TeamDisgusting is getting curb stomped by #TeamWaifu. I knew what I was getting into when joining the Ephraim army after Eirika lost, but I have no regrets. Looking at all the memes and fan art spawned from the Chrom fight alone has been some of the funniest things I've seen in a while, so while Lucina will win the gauntlet hands down (like everyone expected to), I think Ephraim is the real winner here with his new found exposure and popularity amongst the community.

Lucina seems to have a lead that is larger than like... all of the votes cast in the first 2 rounds combined. I hope they do more of these in the future though. Maybe one for just Awakening or Fates. I ended up pulling my 3rd Leo sadly. Kind of wish there was a unit trading mechanic. I have 5 Robins and my wife has like 3 Kageros.

Edit: Pulled an -attack +def Ephraim. Game just had to troll me... Managed to finally get a Chrom, but he is +spd -hp so not sure how viable he is.

That's because when the other armies lost, their people went to Lucina's army because duh, she's going to win.

Which is funny because Ephraim might have stood a chance if they all flocked to him instead.

Okay, I might now start to get a little bit more luck in that Gacha business now: I got two 5-Star units in a single week, thus bumping the amount of 5-Star units I own to three.
...granted, one of them is Chrom, who is currently a focus, but still. It's the spirit that matters.

Ninian will change the meta if she's a dragon with dance as a support skill. I think she's just going to be a (green) dragon with atk/def/res buffs.

Karel and Jaffar could be interesting. I imagine Karel will get Wu Dao (a slightly better killing sword) and Jaffar a killer dagger (nobody has one of those yet, right?).

Don't really feel any hype for Rebecca, Priscilla and Lucius (why staves instead of a green tome?).

So did a last minute pull on the Siblings Bond banner on my Alt account for Eldigan because i needed a red unit since Caede is pure garbage ended up getting a Leo instead i take back everything i said about him being mediocre if not for Leo i would of never beat Ursula since my Leo ended up +Def -Res he took like 4 damage from each ninja which my Sakura could just heal back while he wrecked them on his turn made quick work of the green knight which allowed my Nino and Azura to finish Ursula and the Red Calvary. Shame i won't be able to get him to lvl 40 in time to beat the Lunatic version.

on the topic of the banner Interested the most in Ninian if she ends up a dragon with the ability to dance i won't have to worry about getting Azura on my main account.

New about the april update and more
Quote
The April Update
– Inherit Skill and Merge Allies: Changes Coming

    It will become possible to inherit skills that were previously inherited when using Merge Allies.

    For example, let’s say Marth has inherited the Special skill Sol. If this Marth that inherited Sol is used as the source character for Merge Allies, the target Marth will also inherit Sol.

    In this example, if you performed this action in the current version of the game, Sol would be lost.

– Hero Merit

    Heroes that take part in battles will earn Hero Merit, or HM.
    Once a Hero has earned enough Hero Merit, you can acquire Hero Feathers.
    Please note: Duplicate Heroes will share their Hero Merit.

– New Rules for Combat

    Two new rule sets for battle will be added:

        Defense: Clear the map by defending against enemy attacks for a set number of turns.
        Reinforcements: Enemy reinforcements will appear on the map.

– Adjustments to Arena Scores and Matchmaking

    Changes are coming to how the game handles Arena scores and matchmaking conditions.
    Currently, players are matched based on the number of total base stats of their characters. In the future, matchmaking will be based on a combination of the four values listed below:

        1. Characters levels and ★ rating.
        2. Number of bonuses gained by using Merge Allies.
        3. Total base stats after removing the effects from all skills, including Weapon skills.
        4. Equipped skills.

    This change will help better match players with opponents of similar strength. It will also slightly increase the score you can obtain on all difficulty settings.

– Bonus Hero Descriptions in the Arena
    When you tap on a Bonus Hero in the Arena, a description of the character will appear.

– Notification Display Adjustment
    Notifications will be displayed automatically only once a day, and then not pop up again until the next day. A new day begins in Fire Emblem Heroes at 1:00am.

– A New Way to Expand Your Heroes’ Abilities
    We have plans to add a new equippable item that slightly expands Hero abilities. Look forward to more details about this new feature in the days to come.

Upcoming Grand Hero Battles

    Here are the Grand Hero Battles planned up through the end of May:

        Late March (March 24) – Michalis: Ambitious King
        Early April – Navarre: Scarlet Sword
        Late April – Zephiel: The Liberator
        Early May – Xander: Paragon Knight
        Late May – Lloyd: White Wolf

Future Plans

    We’re currently hard at work developing a new in-game event. Since many of the details aren’t set in stone yet, there’s not much we can share at this time, but this new event will require tactical thinking… since you won’t be able to revive allies who fall during battle.

    The goal of this new event is to provide the thrilling play experiences the Fire Emblem series is famous for in a way both series fans and newcomers can enjoy.

    In the current plan, you will gain battle achievement evaluations that will earn you special rewards.

    Don’t worry! You won’t permanently lose any allies that are defeated while playing this event. We’ll share more information about this event as soon as we can. Please look forward to it.

    That’s all for now! We appreciate your continued support for Fire Emblem Heroes.

Oh cool, I appreciate that. The AI is too often a complete scumbag just sitting there waiting for you to enter their striking range from behind walls and corridors that you can't do anything about even with all the flying and cavalry units in the world. Stack that on the list of dick moves like 5 enemies, defenses that makes your attacks deal 0 damage etc. No, fuck you, YOU make the first move and come in my range.

In normal FEs it's the player who can exploit chokepoints and set ranged units behind walls during defense chapters, not the AI. IS will find the way to make them hard though.

I imagine you'll have to play multiple maps in a row (or maybe one large scrolling map?) with a limited number of heroes.

The upcoming GHB battles sound awesome, but...four sword users in a row?

Yeah, and I can bring a lv40 unit that will make the map trivial but won't let me level my units as I want. If I bring lv31 units on a map that says lv28, I'm hoping to scrap a bit of EXP and keep going until I raise everyone's level, not to get goaded into a slaughterhouse. And then changing my setup for the map by giving it another try doesn't work at all in the training tower where the map is randomized every fight.
My only option is to just have one guy to sacrifice and have the others pile on the guy that killed him, but that's not such great strategizing. I also tend to end battles with just one guy alive when I do that, which is terrible strategy for leveling. And that's no good on a lv40 map like the grand hero battle where one death loses the whole fight.

Despite how broken Takumi seems to be, he's not that godly as you make him out to be. Yes, he has a skill that essentially covers the biggest weakness of all ranged characters, but in a meta where 1-shotting is the preferred method of taking out your enemies, he isn't the best at doing it. Takumi is better suited for defensive teams while someone like Klein or Kagero can reliably kill most enemies in one turn/shot are geared towards aggressive teams that rely on offense.

Though I will concede the fact that having Takumi over those units would be better in the long run if you plan on running the highest possible score in Arena due to how the scoring system works with weighing your team's combined stats.

Oy, a dozen tower quests have been added that give 3 orbs each. Finish each tower stratum 5 times with a specific unit / color to complete (no death allowed). The 4 quests for the last stratum are probably too hard unless that's exactly who you leveled up (4 infantry, then 4 armored, then 4 cavalry, then 4 flying units, all on the 10th stratum) but that's still a lot of orbs, at least one 5-roll is doable.

Post by: Darkflare on March 16, 2017, 01:26:41 pm
Well the 5th-7th towers require 10 completions and 8th - 10th are 15 completions.

Now that skill inheritance is in, it's time to figure out ehat skills to aim for and to what units. First thing I thought of was someone like Lyndis definitely benifitting from having Vantage.

Post by: Lost_Avenger on March 16, 2017, 02:02:22 pm
Started leveling up all of my Lon'qus to 4* for easy Vantage 3. Since Lucius kinda sucks, I went ahead and made it so he can teleport and heal everyone when he heals(since I have so many of the bald old man healers sitting around). Gave Leo death blow 3. Gave Tiki and Jaffar poison stike, but may switch it out for vantage 3(esp for Tiki). I think I gave Klein an aoe skill too. Im tempted to give Tiki Lightning breath+, but I would need to give up a 5* Adult Tiki or Nowi for it. Lightning breath+ and vantage would be a nice combo. I also gave some characters pull back and smite. Skill inheritance is fun

might as well expect all Hectors to have wary fighter. And most nukers having life and death. And pretty much everyone having vantage lol. Seliph might be decent now. Effie could be scary now since she can have a damage reducing skill and something like threaten att too.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on March 17, 2017, 12:32:35 am
I gave Vantage to Takumi, Moonbow to Eirika, Goad Calvary and Vantage to Eldigan, Death Blow and Glacies to Nino, and Threaten Attack to Klein. Still deciding on a suitable A-skill for Eirika and Ninian. Any recommendations?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on March 17, 2017, 12:44:06 am
i also gave glacies to nino and it takes a long time to build up but it's worth it. i gave effie aegis, will probably give takumi vantage because i am scum, have two shannas that can give desperation (i have a third one i'll keep) and a bunch of lissas that can give renewal

i don't think i'll fuck around too much with this for now because i'd need to spend feathers to get some people to 4 star and i'd rather save those to get characters i like to 5 star

I'm planning to promote my Nowi when this season is over and give her bow breaker or quick riposte to murder all vantage Takumis in the arena. Maybe fury, darting speed and and a special for overkill.

Another thing I have in mind is desperation Lucina since she already has defiant speed and changing Ephraim's moonbow (terrible) for bonfire or draconic aura. The fabled triple advantage Robin is alluring too.

By the way, a guy on reddit made a chart listing every level 3 skill available from 4* and lower star heroes:

Post by: Byakko on March 17, 2017, 04:58:48 am
So far, I only ditched a Raigh and Shanna to give Tharja and Ursula a Rally Atk, Seal Res, and Desperation, and a defensive special from a Hinata I think for Marth because unkillable. I first want to make some characters more versatile for when it turns out they can't do any damage, things like that. I don't have a lot of units with good skills to pass on yet, though I'm making a list (Subaki, Arthur, Florina...)
Oh, right, and I messed up giving Buckler to Marth from a 3* Hinata because that was my first blind test and I didn't realize that I had to upgrade my Hinata to 4* before being able to give Marth the upgraded special.

If I had a Reddit account I would suggest adding a list of units that don't have an A / B / C / Special skill as an extra column, it's also interesting information.

Okay, so after a bunch of listing and planning and a bit of rolling two extra Gordins and a Raigh (all 3*), I'd say that the biggest choke point is... leveling to 4* the units you'll burn to get the good skills to inherit. So lots of time in the Tower, and lots and LOTS of feathers. This is going to be harsh...
But either way I'm quite happy to give some units a few useful stuff. I'm not trying to make anyone particularly OP, but increase their versatility.
Also, now it won't be as interesting to merge duplicates for higher stats if you can pass their skills to someone else instead. That's really pushing the bill on real careful planning.

Sorry for the double post, but wanted to inform you guys if you haven't known already that tomorrow (3-20-17) at 4:15am PST (or 4 hours and 15 minutes after the daily reset), an early bird version of the Michalis Grand Battle will be live for 45 minutes. There will be a hard and lunatic version of the map with a 3* and 4* Michalis as a reward. Not sure if this is a way to get two additional Michalis outside of the two you can get when the Grand Battle officially releases on its intended date (3-24-17).

There will also be an event going on where feathers and orbs will be given out to everyone if a certain amount of people are able to beat the Grand Battle while it's live.

For references sake, this will be map where the battle will be held:

Of course, I get proven wrong.

Anyway, except for Michalis himself, fliers have​ Drag back so if you don't one shot them, they'll put you in range of one that will one shot you. The infantry units have Bowbreaker. Michalis' passive ignores weaknesses so he won't take extra damage from bows anyway.

Level Narcian or another flyer with the skills to take down either of the pagasi in one round so they won't drag you back. The pegasi have high natural speed + darting speed so they're gonna double you unless you have sword/lance breaker. Once they drag you back Michalis will fuck you up. But if you kill them the entire team's strategy falls apart and you can kill Michalis before he charges his aoe special with a strong red unit. The side units aren't anything special.

Olivia:

By inheriting the "compatibility strengthening" or "the sword of the Asahi" to Olivier to the dancer who can fight with compatibility , Hector becomes stable and it becomes possible to carry out the role firmly as well as "dance" It is a very excellent unit.
Moreover, it makes it easier to use dancing in the relief course etc.

Some German translation quirk that carried over from the German translation of Shadow Dragon.
...don't really know why the German translation cherry-picks names to change while keeping other names as is, though. Though sometimes, I feel like pronounciation is sometimes the reason for the change.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
To be honest, the only thing I do know 100% about the German translation (and European translations in general) is that the translated script is extremely close to the japanese original instead of being a more liberal improvisation like the american translation (for better or worse).

Post by: Byakko on March 23, 2017, 01:07:38 pm
Why is Caeda called Shiida in your game?
Quick Google guess says it's because her Japanese name is spelled Shiida. How do you pronounce Caeda ? I wouldn't have pronounced it Shiida had I known the character before seeing this.
and Fi was localized into Phai (probably to keep the american pronounciation)
... Again, because the Japanese spelling is fai as in fa - ee. It's not changed to fi because non English languages wouldn't naturally pronounce the i the way English does.

5000 feathers for log-in bonus, wow, that's nice. That being said, I wish there were an alternative way to 5* someone, because feathers go down way too fast when you need to 4* many units so that others can inherit better skills from them when you burn them.

Oh I thought we were only talkin bout 4 to 5
I got Ursula from 3 to 4 and Anna from 2 to 4

I wanna make Ursula good but I got no clue how

Giving her Odin's tome preferably the 5* version works great for her or building a pony emblem team but that requires you have Gunter and Cecilia I believe, plus another horse unit which you would probably want a red which I believe are only Stahl, Cain and that recent 5 star red guy from the last banner there is Leo as well but you probably don't want 3 mages for that team. Doing both of those things makes her truly shine.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on March 23, 2017, 07:24:19 pm
The real backbone of a Gronnblade Horse Emblem team is Reinhardt, or at least his skill. Without a couple of heroes with goad cavalry you won't get the best mileage out Ursula or any other mounted mage.

Post by: Moon Girard on March 23, 2017, 07:53:10 pm
Yea building an all Calvary team is definitely niche I mean the one I just suggested requires you 5 star both Nino and Odin to sacrfire them to give Cecilia and Ursula their weapons and If you do want it to be the best it can you do need Reinhardt. but this also means FRobin can destroy your whole team for free since Gunter would be the only non mage if you want to use Ursula. Personally I thinking making a team of nothing but one type is a bad idea in general anyway. Giving Ursula Odin's tome should be enough if you want to use her though I've been using mine without Odin's tome and it's working out fine though Julia does do all the heavy lifting on my team in arena so that may be why.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on March 24, 2017, 10:44:37 pm
Looking at the stats of the enemy units, there's Michalis with insane HP and high def but terrible res so you probably want to toss a red mage at him, a flying spear with low def so send him Narcian, Minerva (or Michalis if you can build the 3* fast enough), then two sword units with low def so a strong spear unit should be fine (Peri, Sharena, Ephraim, but a strong blue mage like Reinhardt apparently works), and finally a spear unit with low res so green mage. Everyone is 5*, so you need as many 5* yourself as possible. They have crazy high stats.
In other words, sword users are useless, archers won't work on Michalis, and Minerva is fine. So basically, the current focus seems pretty bad.
I'm still finishing up my 4* Tharja and trying to get my Ephraim somewhere to see if he can top my Peri - at least stats-wise, those enemy stats are tough to match. Seriously, IINM Michalis has 60 HP, 51 ATK, 36 DEF, I have 3 lv40 5* and none of them come anywhere close to that in either of these stats.

BTW, I've noticed that the enemies in the training tower have started using skill inheritance too, non-generic units have randomized skills that they're not supposed to have, it's getting seriously irritating. Thanks for the hidden can of worms there.
Man, the AI and enemy setups sure love to be the absolute cheapest motherfucker in every aspect.

training tower enemies always had inherited skills before players could do it. early in the game i remember fighting a saizo with takumi's close counter skill and thinking "damn why don't people think saizo is top tier" but then saw he doesn't have that skill anywhere

sometimes it works in your favor because i also saw an azura with some rally skill instead of sing

I find grinding in Arena to be more effective. Even though the teams are random you can tell what a non generic unit can do at first glance and they won't have fake stats.

Post by: Byakko on March 25, 2017, 01:54:17 am
Just went and beat Michalis on lunatic. Narcian started with a bait and kill on the flying lance, Peri intercepting the cavalry sword, Clarine to heal her (enough to survive the flying sword which would otherwise kill her), and the critical point is that Marth blocked but didn't attack Mickey at the bottom of the wall, while Peri blocked the flying sword at the top, protecting Clarine and Narcian. Not attacking Mick meant not decreasing his special countdown, thus surviving the following attack, enough for Clarine to heal Marth, then finish off Mick. Narcian and Peri cleaned out the last horseman.
That said, my Marth has Escucheon, short countdown defensive special, that helped, between Clarine and his own heal on top.

The enemy units were OP cheat, but honestly the map was far less bullshit than the Ursula map. That corridor with ninjas that attack then retreat, man. The Mick map was interesting.

Is anyone else having trouble with defense? I'm not gonna get a single feather at this rate. I guess it's a side effect of SI making everyone broken and the general playerbase having access to better heroes.
 
Back in the past seasons I struggled to reach 3,000 points and breaking a streak was painfully common. I'm currently sitting at 4,450 points and my team hasn't lost a single match this season (gave up quite a few times, though).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on March 25, 2017, 03:32:09 am
yeah i don't have shit on defense this week. at this rate i've been thinking of making my defense team a bunch of good 4 star units so i'm matched up with someone that might lose.

skill inheritance made my tharja broken because i gave her desperation, which means that if she's attacking and her health is under 75% she'll do her two attacks in a row (like a brave weapon). she naturally has high speed and she gets her stats boosted by eirika and azura. she destroys pretty much everything, even most blue mages. vantage might be a problem if she's attacking someone that received some damage, but that's usually not the case. i don't think i've ever lost an arena match with this setup
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on March 25, 2017, 04:25:41 am
I'm kind of sad that I wasn't able to get Minerva when pulling for the banner h8usomuchdarkflare, but then with all the extra units I pulled I was able to realize that I had the true Minerva all along.

(http://i.imgur.com/zzuTYwU.png)

Not done yet, but basically the gist of what I wanted with her. I had to decide between Death Blow or Iote Shield and chose the latter due to her base attack (with a +Atk/-Res nature) being high enough already. I also alternate between Draw Back or Quick Riposte in the B-slot.

Is anyone else having trouble with defense? I'm not gonna get a single feather at this rate. I guess it's a side effect of SI making everyone broken and the general playerbase having access to better heroes.

It's funny though for my case. Last week, I was only able to get one successful defense quite literally at the last minute before Arena closed last Monday. But this week I was able to get 7 successful defenses at the time of this posting with 3 days left in the season. My team was the same one I used last week, with the only changes being I gave Nino Death Blow and Desperation while I gave Triangle Adept to Ninian.

So this has been working out pretty well for me
(http://i.imgur.com/lMEBOJe.png)
Savage Blow does good DPS to everyone close to her target so all I need to do is place Ogma in front to block off attackers
Bowbreaker takes care of dudes like Jeorge and Klein,I still haven't run into a Takumi in arena to try it out on
HP+4 will prolly be replaced with something if I find something good(Darting Blow or Death Blow i guess?),and New Moon/Luna just nukes people
I don't know what to do with Assassins Bow tho.I get Assassins Bow+ as 5* but idk if there's anything better (Would Killer Bow do well?I already have a bunch of Niles,so if that works that's great)

Current team is Ogma,Takumi,Setsuna and Ursula.I didnt do anything to the other 3 yet but I'll prolly buff Ursula and then Ogma,Takumi is good as he is

Also I just ran into a team of 3 Marths and an Effie and all 4 of them had wings of Mercy and this was absolutely terrifying
Imagine them just teleporting all over the place,jesus

Post by: TrinitroRoy on March 26, 2017, 12:43:54 pm
Looking at the stats of the enemy units, there's Michalis with insane HP and high def but terrible res so you probably want to toss a red mage at him, a flying spear with low def so send him Narcian, Minerva (or Michalis if you can build the 3* fast enough), then two sword units with low def so a strong spear unit should be fine (Peri, Sharena, Ephraim, but a strong blue mage like Reinhardt apparently works), and finally a spear unit with low res so green mage. Everyone is 5*, so you need as many 5* yourself as possible. They have crazy high stats.
Well damn, the best red mage I have and will ever have is a 3-Star Sophia... :-\
At least I do have Sharena, and I heard Cherche is a good Minerva replacement as well (P.S.: I have a 3-Star Cherche).
Now, about the green mage: 4-Star Nino (I can quickly make my 3-Star Nino into a 4-Star one) or 4-Star Cecilia?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on March 26, 2017, 12:55:09 pm
Forget the 3*, they don't stand a chance. My 4* Tharja and Cecilia weren't enough either (Tharja still couldn't one-shot Mich and just instantly died, and Cecilia because the last blue guy arrives late and if everyone else isn't ready to ambush his ass then you probably already lost, so she wasn't that useful), so I switched for a sword tank and a healer to block Mich (make sure he can't trigger his special).
You didn't get at least the 3* Narcian ? 3* Cherche will just die. 4* Cherche if you boost her high damage even higher with a better weapon or a Triangle Adept, maybe. Armor break is useless in this fight, so Narcian would be better.

But seriously, if your best guys are still 3*, what are you doing even considering anything in the lunatic range. Hit the training tower and raise your people. Hasn't it been like a month since I told you that (http://mugenguild.com/forum/msg.2331492) already ? If you play this casually and don't plan to raise your units, why do you care about the lunatic missions.

It's a crapshoot. I finally got a defense win on Friday with my Julia/Lyndis/Perri/Tharja team and Tharja is the only non 5* in that group. I swapped to Julia/Effie/Olivia/Tharja(Which Julia is the only 5*) and got a win on Saturday and 2 more the next day.

Curiously, despite the difference in rating points, both teams scored about the same amount of Defense points.

Been considering burning my feathers to upgrade my Effie to 5*. Checked IVs and it was +Res/-HP. The Res boon is nice but I'm worried that the HP bane could be a problem.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on March 28, 2017, 03:29:10 am
Doesn't Effie have among the highest HP/def stats of the game ? According to that evaluation of her (http://altema.jp/fe-heroes/chara/127) on that Japanese site (I haven't actually checked the numbers but that's what they say). Having a minus shouldn't be a big deal, trading for res is a good thing since they also say she has shit res. If you actually have enough for a 5*, Effie is apparently a really good pick, they have her at top tier (they give her a score of 92/100, however they calculate that).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on March 28, 2017, 03:38:58 am
+RES is a decent nature considering she's one of the rare heroes who get a +4 boon.

Effie is one of the best units in the game because she has huge armor BST, a better stat apread than her peers and access to 2 of the best skills in the game: wary fighter and death blow. Definitely worth the feathers.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on March 28, 2017, 03:59:31 am
I was debating whether to 5* Michalis, Olivia, or Effie, but you guys helped me decide on Effie. I just pulled a +Atk Minerva, and I still have Ninian to cover my dancing needs so I guess it's the most logical choice right now. Though I do intend to 5* those two later on.

After this revelation, I found out the Effie I pulled is +Atk and now I am very tempted to sacrifice my 5* Abel to give her Brave Lance+.

Michalis is a beast too. As soon as I get enough feathers I'm promoting him. I already have a movelist planned for him:

These "new" characters will be different from their main counterparts as they will be sporting a different look and most likely a different weapon, similar to Christmas Robin who wields a Christmas Tree as a weapon.

My problem with the Night Sky/Astra line of special skills is that it increases the damage based on...the damage, therefore it can be severely hampered by many factors such as defenses and Triangle Advantage/Disadvantage.

I gave my Minerva, Draconic Gaze since the damage increase is based on her Atk stat and is applied after damage calculations which means it's a flat increase that can't be decreased in any way outside of maybe Special Defensive skills like Pavise.

Long story short, Special Attacks like Dragonic Gaze that increases damage based on your characters stats will always do damage to the opponent even when your normal attacks would normally do 0 damage to the enemy, something that Night Sky/Glimmer/Astra can't do.

if that's gonna be the focus for the next two weeks i'm just gonna use my orbs now. i'm fine with regular ass lucina and camilla

Post by: Byakko on March 29, 2017, 02:37:55 am
I find the specials based on res the worse to deal with because the few units with high res generally already have a decent special (my highest res is I think Peri and her Glimmer is usually enough), and those who need a strong special like 50 to 80% of a stat generally have a shitty res - specifically. Looking at you, Saizo, I can't find a way to make you deal relevant damage beside the poison.

The anti-Michalis banner fucked off as fast as he did, and we're left with the same terrible banner that's been overstaying its welcome since a week ago already.

The pegasi, Hawkeye, Fae, Sanaki, Eliwood and a few others get a healthy damage boost from Iceberg at a reasonable 3 turn charge (2 for Hawkeye). It's a shame healers can't inherit it, because it'd make them almost useful. Bonfire has a much better coverage since everyone and their mother has over 30 def.

I really dislike glimmer/astra and luna/moonbow (reddit loves this shit). The former are (usually) only useful for overkill, the later are (usually) only useful in completely uphill battles. The only reason my Lucina still has Luna is Hector.

The Navarre map looks more or less the same as the one we saw when he appeared during the direct.

I've been neglecting the Grand Hero battles since I never really bothered training anyone past level 20.
But I'm gonna be grinding to bring my units up to speed this time.  I NEED Navarre.

Interesting, the April quests aren't divided with Normal/Hard/Lunatic difficulties, so you can aim straight for the harder/tedious challenges without having to do the easy ones first. I hope this becomes the standard for the monthly quests.

Spring Lucina is really nice but-desu Linde has just 1 less speed and her weapon is stronger. That extra damage really does the difference in plenty of match ups:

I decided I might as well re-roll my game since apparently, my save file in general vanished into the ether despite linking it to my Nintendo account should have stopped that-desudesu

So I might as well start over and re-roll until I get good units or atleast 2 5 stars on a single team rather than just two:

For now I have only 1 5 star base(Sakura), 4 4 star bases(Marth, Seliph(who I swear think is Marth's son or something-desudesu way too similar), Stahl and Gunter) and the rest are meh 3 star bases.

Since I gained like 20 orbs just by logging in, might as well take advantage and hope I can get a few 5 star bases or even the easter egg characters.

EDIT: VERY NEXT RE-ROLL, 2 Five Star Bases and from this event too. Unfortunately for me, they are both Xander and Chrom(when I wanted Lucina and Carmillia...fate fucks me in mysterious ways).

got 5 four star bases and 2 of them are females(Puri and Erikia, Fae is probably a girl but I'm not going to pretend s/he may be a trap lol) so it's not a massive loss, although having this event Chrom AND gaining a 4 Star normal Chrom at the same time...eh... it's like a waste of a summon for that one).

I went ahead and summoned again(spent a lot more money that I should have honestly). Pulled a +att -def Camilla. Is it worth it to build up a unit to 5* just to steal their tome? Right now she has triangle adept 2, vantage 3(working on it), and Camilla's aoe 3rd skill. I plan to give her moonbow, but I dont have it yet. I have to dump so much sp into her just to give her a usable skillset and Im not sure it is worth all the effort.

Lucina seems worth it though. I was tempted to give her fury 3, but it doesnt seem worth all the sp. Probably going to give her vantage and not sure for a c(threaten res?).

Im probably going to hold off on summoning again till Ike comes

Grand Hero Battle for Navarre is out. Already completed Lunatic and it's not as hard as the previous Grand Battles (I'm looking at you Ursula). If there's one tip I can give you, it's that you should approach from the bottom so you can funnel them easier.

Also I finally gave my Bunnycina a Blade Tome...

Eldigan with a Dancer and possibly a healer.

On a serious note all these units are free units so you should have them as long as you actually bothered to do get them and didn't send them home or used them for SI.

Who do you even have. It's not like anyone can reasonably (and non-jokingly) tell you "get Takumi, Ryoma, Hector etc." because you can't actually go and get them. Roll if you must and see who you get.
Get a red mage for that asshole green axe, get a dancer maybe, probably get a flyer, and get a heavy physical hitter who can OHKO the ninjas (the dancer helps). Navarre has high HP but rather bad def *and* res so anyone blue should work, although his high speed and good attack would say try to kill him before he reaches you, so maybe a blue mage (instead of the dancer I suppose). Girard posted a video doing the job with the 3* you can get for free if you completed the special maps (not the Grand Hero Battles).
And yes, do everything Darkflare said.

Spoiler: Navarre GHB play by play (click to see content)
Don't think my strategy for this one will help many. I did SIed Pivot into Effie which helped reposition her once she​ baited the ninja and triggered the AI to start moving.
I had Donnel move in and Olivia danced him to strike and KO the first ninja. Drag back made sure only the second ninja could attack him and he barely hanged on. Once he took out the second ninja he switched with Tharja so she could kill the axe as Effie cleaned Navarre and his cleric on the left side.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 05, 2017, 04:55:25 am
Well, turns out it was a bit useful to roll 15 Selenas and Gwendolyns, to inherit Drag Back and Reposition on Ephraim.
5* Ephraim took the bait position (and ended with 7 HP), 4* Tharja sitting at the bottom next to the mountains until the last minute waiting for the axe, lv29 3* Olivia danced all day long for Ephraim, lv40 4* Sharena blocked Navarre - but as with Michalis, neither Sharena nor Tharja (behind her) attacked first, just tanking like a boss, until the very last minute to avoid triggering Navarre's special that killed Olivia between Sharena and Ephraim in all my previous attempts. Sharena ended with low HP too, that was tight.
Ephraim took out both ninjas with three attacks in two turns (one dance), Sharena blocking Navarre and the axe behind him until he tired his HP out (without using his special) on Sharena to kill him and the axe fast enough (a dance got Sharena away just after killing Navarre for Tharja to OHKO the axe), and the Cleric was the last one standing but he got lost in the woods (he came down from the right at the start, not from the top, because all my guys were grouped at the bottom) and got gangbanged the second he finally stepped out of it (dragged out by Ephraim and finished by Sharena).
This consumes a lot of stamina to try a strategy over and over until you can fine tune every single step... And now that this battle is done, inheriting those skills onto Ephraim might be a bit of a waste, but a hard hitting super tank that can drag a unit out can have its use. It's just that he didn't necessarily need all that before.

Oh, yeah, I rolled 3* Beruka, 4* Jakob and 4* Cain too ; along with (regular) Camilla last time, I really like some of those designs.

Now the question is...should I keep my 3-Star Olivia in my team (4-Star Caeda, 4-Star Sophia, 4-Star Olivia, 5-Star Hector), or should I make my 4-Star Female Corrin inherit Olivia's Dance ability for a bootleg Ninian (since I don't have the actual Ninian) and put her instead?

Olivia doesn't need to be high level in the Navarre battle, she shouldn't have to fight anyone. 5* Hector should be able to kill the ninjas with Olivia's help IF you can give him someone's drag back (I think you'll get ambushed by the axe if you don't have that skill), but there's little chance that Caeda will survive Navarre long enough to kill him. Low def, not class advantage, her only good point is the speed which will prevent Navarre from hitting twice, just hope that it's enough to kill him before he kills her on the hard level (not a chance in lunatic). Defend once with Caeda, then attack with Sophia then Caeda, and even if that kills him, hope the axe doesn't finish off Caeda.
Oh, yeah, if Hector and Caeda aren't lv40, you're probably surely going to die in three turns.

Went Camilla because I intend to get extra feathers and need every advantage I can get. Also plot. Been seeing a lot of friendly Shareenas though.
Might end up lending Julia. Much easier to use than Effie even if I gave her Pivot to help out with the mobility weakness and she already deletes anything with low res or is a blue unit, if not severely cripple them.

It seems to be an important part of the Navarre fight, unless he can just overpower everyone in the Hard mode with raw stats, it's difficult to survive the triple ambush from the woods without pulling the ninjas away one by one.
Yea, but you could just use Donnel himself for that.

It's easier to get a higher rank on a losing team, but in the end it doesn't add up. Most people will get at least 1000 per round plus 500 for each win

Post by: Foobs on April 08, 2017, 05:09:56 pm
Joining weaker teams is a legitimate strategy, if you play to log in religiously and make the most ou of your flags. I was checking one reddit thread and a guy had was ranking in the top 10,000 (1300 feather) in team Cherche with only roughly enough points to make it into top 70,000 (700+500 guaranteed) in team Camilla. Joining team Minerva, saving some flags in the first two rounds and going all out in the final would probably yield the best feather output.

round 1
scored about 70,000 points
earned 26,111th place (1300+500 feathers)

Post by: Byakko on April 09, 2017, 12:48:13 am
Well, congrats on the story mode and the GHB. I don't have Hector and never used him, so I actually forgot his ranged counter might work fine on the ninjas without needing drag back ; that might not have been a great advice, but that's clearly how you get good at this game, you learn to use your unit's skills properly and you plan hard around it, then try again and again until you get the right positions step by step.
Hopefully you understand the grind to level up your characters and you stop asking about notoriously tough maps with lv30 units. Find someone with skills you're comfortable with and grind that unit up to lv35, then do it again for an other one, and use 2 or 3 of those to finish reaching lv40.

Hm, I just checked my arena defense results, last week after the rush of skill inheritance I still had a dozen successful defenses, but this round, not a single one. Either everyone got better or everyone stopped attacking me (it's a pity you can't tell the difference). I know there's at least one guy that I constantly come across nearly every day in arena, who must have like 3 or 4 accounts, エクラ, whom I stopped attacking because he has basically all the OP units (he also pops 3 times in the voting gauntlet rankings near me), but I really don't think I have OP units myself.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on April 09, 2017, 02:56:25 am
Slap Fury 3 on one of your heroes.

Going after stronger teams might seem contradictory to getting easy wins, but people in the higher BST tiers are more likely to give up if one of their units fall (they all go after deathless streaks). I've gotten multiples victories a week after giving Nowi that skill.

Look at them frustrated whales

I mean, only the highest defense points matter. You only need 1 defense win with at least 250 points for the most extra feathers. You're bound to get 1 with anything resembling a good team. Mine got 5 last week and I have 4 this week.

They wanna remove the daily +1 Orbs and make it so you just get Orbs from the daily quest or the events or monthly quests.
It's their way of getting you to pay up and buy orbs,but as long as you run the training tower a couple of times a day you'll get your daily Orb

Those games would get way too much heat if they tried that so generally they don't. There's no way FEH is trying that when it's having a good run so far.
Oh, and now I wish there were a way to keep getting SPs. That 5* Chrom with his Aether that costs 500 SP, plus other skills that cost 200 and 300, and everyone else waiting with inherited skills but they're already sitting at lv40, there's no way I ever unlock all that.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 11, 2017, 02:56:10 pm
Yeah, 3 at a time. I gave up giving Narcian a hammer a long time ago (I got other armor crushing axes since then), and Chrom is waiting for 510 SP just for his own skills that I put on hold even after Aether, and only 5 levels to go before the cap. It'll take months. And let's not even talk about rolling another Chrom to merge and get 20~40 SP.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on April 11, 2017, 03:02:34 pm
Yea, my Julia and Tharja have over 1k left over SP and both of them have all their skills learned including a few extra inherited ones.

Just do tower/arena every time you get the chance.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on April 11, 2017, 03:16:01 pm
SP shortage is one of the reasons I never maxed the castle (that and dimishing returns), the extra experience is actually detrimental on the long run as farming SP is way easier in the lower levels.
Chrom is waiting for 510 SP just for his own skills that I put on hold even after Aether, and only 5 levels to go before the cap. It'll take months
If you remove his special and stick to (current Chrom lvl-6) lvl quest you should get enough SP for his base kit in a few days. I needed like 1500 SP after promoting Michalis and farmed them in a week.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 11, 2017, 04:10:37 pm
As in hitting more often and killing less, while sure enough to not get killed ? I'll look into that. I just spent a dozen crests (out of 70 piled up as I only used one per day until now) I've got like a dozen SP with single hits, I'm not sure that's really effective. And then sometimes I get a blue lv40 with 3 lv2s and I'm wiped with no SP gained. That being said, I managed to reach 3k dueling points in a go, that was rare, I usually go with my all lv40 team and even with all hard wins and only a couple of deaths, I barely pass 2k points. I don't get how the points are calculated.
On a bridge, I had Chrom as a wall, a healer, and a dancer all lined up, it was pretty hilarious until the wyvern guy reached my lv2 healer.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on April 11, 2017, 04:52:23 pm
Uh, you're grinding in the arena? that's pretty inefficient. If you want SP fast you need to hit the training tower. You'll have to burn hundreds of crests to match a single stamina at your current rate.

If the strata around your level are all blue pick the first stratum and quit, they'll reset. The enemies level in each stratum are +/- 2-3 of the recommended level. You'll get 3 SP for defeating enemies that are 1-6 levels below your Chrom (or higher than him). The reason I recommended removing his special is because killing an enemy with it grants extra experience, and again, leveling up too fast is bad. When you do level up you'll get 18 to 24 extra SP at once.

By the way the arena matches you with teams that have roughly the same BST as your own. The only way to score high in it is to use one of the season's bonus heroes. They double your score.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 11, 2017, 05:03:44 pm
I don't normally farm through arena, like I said I only use one crest a day to finish the daily quests, I had 70+ crests laying there. Meanwhile I have 3 teams that I'm leveling (when the colors or level range for a given floor is bad for the corresponding team, I do another team on another floor, it's good enough), so I run out of stamina at an alarming rate, and I don't have any more potion. I blaze through the tower whenever I can - but it never seemed to give me much SP beside straight leveling up.
... The bonus for recommended arena units is double ?! God damn.

with the arena feathers i just got i can upgrade someone else and i'm wondering who
It seems you don't do with many mages, personally I'd go with Ursula out of these but that's because tits and I find the alternatives boring.
Oh yeah, while I'm at it, how good is that 5* Beruka ? I have a 3* one, I really like her design but her skill set is kinda bad and her one good point seem to be being a tank, I really don't know if I should 4* her. Did you upgrade her or did you get her straight at 5* ? Is she useful ?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on April 11, 2017, 10:50:05 pm
it should be a mage because i only have tharja as it is, but i'm not in a rush because her damage output if she starts the turn next to eirika is ridiculous. and if she has taken some amount of damage then desperation 3 will trigger (at 75% or less which lets her strike twice in a row if she's starting the attack). considering the speed buff from eirika and darting blow her attacking speed is 47. she kills pretty much everything regardless of color.

i got beruka in the wyvern riders focus. it could've been any of the other three, but it is what it is...
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
she has very good defense, but her speed sucks. she's probably good at blocking the path for physical blue units but nothing much else. as for her skills, defiant def would put her defense at 44 which is very good. lunge swaps her position with the enemy's, which would probably put her in more trouble, in range to mages or archers. with skill inheritance she might be decent (like giving her quick riposte or a breaker skill so she can hit twice, and a better offensive skill like bonfire to take advantage of her high def) but otherwise i wouldn't bother. you might have other units that make better use of those skills
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on April 11, 2017, 11:44:02 pm
I'd go with MRobin if I were you. The easiest way for you to lose atm is taking a stray hit from Klein, Reinhardt or Linde before you have time to position Eirika and Tharja. Robin with triangle adept and b tome breaker covers those weak spots.

seals can be equipped/unequipped however you want. you can give a seal to a unit and then take it away and give it to someone else. the quests to get the seals seem fun too, you're given some characters and you have to make them defeat units of certain levels

1. Olivia w/ Ruby Sword+

I'd actually be more embarrassed if I post my roster, but I'm glad we can agree that Olivia's artwork isn't that good and is actually one of the reasons why I'm hesitating since I find Michalis and Hana more appealing to the eyes.

For references sake, even though Olivia is an option I already have Ninian and just wanted Olivia so I can easily exchange Ninian out when I want to while still having a dancer if I wanted to run a different blue unit like Ephraim or Nowi. I even fed the Palla I pulled from the Pegasus banner just so I can give her a Ruby Sword+ which definitely cemented her into being brought to 5* once I have the feathers (same thing with Hana with her Wo Dao+).

New Banner and Paralogues are out.

It's funny that I was able to pull Alm, Clair, and Faye from the banner, but I was most excited in finding out the Setsuna I pulled is +Spd/-Def. Now I can finally go about making that Quad Shooting Setsuna I've always wanted.

Another funny thing happened yesterday and I decided to give my Eirika Sword Breaker before I went to bed. When I woke up, I realized I had 6 successful defenses (going on 9 now). It's amazing to see how one skill can make all the difference.

Here's the Eirika I use. Kind of wanted to show her off, cause she's often labeled as nothing but support. Wanted to change that a bit and make her more offense oriented rather than just some buffing mule for my Nino and Bunnycina. Still need to grind for more SP to max out Sword Breaker.

(http://i.imgur.com/K1fMsrr.png)

Been looking for recommendations for Skills to give to Julia and Tharja and this is what I got so far.

Your Tharja is fine, but your Julia set up is kind of questionable to me. I know what you're trying to do, but I think Vantage is wasted on her considering her paper thin defenses (made even thinner thanks to LaD3) will mostly get her one shotted/one rounded before she has a chance to even use it not to mention it being completely useless if melee users gets within striking distance of her.

I also think Julia doesn't make good use of LaD3 as one of the better things she can do is tank a variety of magic attacks due to her high res stat, and without it she'll easily be dispatched by someone like Nino who can easily double her even with your speed.

What I would suggest is give her either Fury 3 or Triangle Adept for her A-Slot, and then Green Tome Breaker for her B-Slot, her C-Slot can be anything you want. Not only will she kill Blue/Dragon units even faster, it'll give her a better chance of taking out other green tome users. It's the load out I use for my Julia.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

Triangle seems like a waste for Julia since her absurd attack means she's wiping out any blues that don't have high res without it anyway. LnD was more to cover her low speed as she's already frail to melee. But I'll swap it out to give back her magic tanking.

G. Tome breaker could be useful but other than Julia the only other "common" Green tome user is Nino and that one is decided by who initiates the attack first.

It's like wary fighter (prevents follow ups) but only works on initiation and additionally it prevents slower physical units from counter attacking at all. Basically Alm has one free attack against any non-mage unit slower than him at the cost of never doubling anyone on initiation, meaning he can mess with Hector and any slow unit reliant on quick riposte.

It could be a decent skill for brave weapon users with moderately high speed like Raven or Ogma.

G. Tome breaker could be useful but other than Julia the only other "common" Green tome user is Nino and that one is decided by who initiates the attack first.

While Julia will make quick work of most blue units, she will still struggle effectively one shotting even with her high attack. Case in point would be Linde as with neutral IVs she would take around 29-30 damage against Julia which isn't enough, even Male Robin will survive with around 3 HP. Triangle Adept will make this happen and even though it's a double edged sword, you should be avoiding red units with her to begin with.

Green Tome Breaker works regardless of who initiated the attack first, as long as you have the appropriate amount of HP for it. The only other worthwhile B-Slot skills for Julia would be Quick Riposte and Renewal.

Post by: Foobs on April 14, 2017, 07:26:22 pm
I really wouldn't recommend quick riposte for Julia, that's a skill for slow units that have the bulk to take a hit. Julia's so frail you wouldn't want her baiting anything but blue mages. All archers kill her before quick riposte kicks in, thanks to triangle adept she can't even scratch red mages and the follow up from quick riposte is overkill on all blue mages but Olwen (edit: scratch that, it also works on Ursula on Odin).

I'd go with Fury/Life and Death + Lance breaker. Kills almost every blue unit and unlike triangle adept builds she can still kill some red units.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on April 14, 2017, 08:26:44 pm
Quick Riposte is actually great to help her bait other mages due to her naturally high res.

I run a two dancer/two blade tome team so I built my mages a little differently, but here's a general setup for Tharja:
Quote
WEAPON: Rauðrblade+
ASSIST: Reciprocal Aid/Ardent Sacrifice
SPECIAL: Moonbow
A: Fury over Darting Blow. You should be running buffs with Tharja so I'm assuming you have a Hone Speed user. Fury buff + Hone/Rally SPD buff will grant you the +6 SPD you'd get form Darting (+1 more actually), but also give you the other +3 stats from Fury while making it easier to get to the Desperation threshold. Darting doesn't add to the Blade Tome buff if I remember right.
B: Desperation.
C: Hone SPD/ATK.
S: +SPD Seal over +ATK.

As for Julia, I don't have her myself so take it as you will:
Quote
WEAPON: Naga
ASSIST: Flexibile, but personally I'd think of using Draw Back/Reciprocal Aid/Ardent Sacrifice depending what you're running her with.
SPECIAL: Moonbow
A: Fury over Life and Death, definitely. Death Blow is a good alternative.
B: I'd personally go for G Tomebreaker for Nino/other Julias. Vantage is a good alternative if you can safely get her to the threshold.
C: Breath of Life can be okay.. not a bad pick, but if your units are getting OHKO'd, it'd probably be best to just take a Hone/Fortify skill or Threaten Res. If it's working out for you though, you can keep it.
S: +ATK

I got the worst unit of the banner imo(the flier who has nothing special going for her). I kind of wanted Alm, but he seems like he is a really niche unit. His ability seems like it will hurt him a lot since it wont be triggered if he is outsped right? His base speed is like 30? So he is outsped by a lot of common threats. He would need to be on a dancer team(Id probably run something like a blade tome, double dancer, Alm, but you would probably be better off running a 2nd blade tome?)

I kind of want Lucas though. A lot of bulk with normal movement. Kind of wish I didnt summon though
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on April 17, 2017, 09:36:42 pm
I actually pulled Alm (+SPD/-DEF). Windsweeper is really bad outside of specific set-ups like messing with Hector and units with quick riposte or killing slow units with vantage, and almost any other B skill would be better, but it might be useful in that fabled defense mode we've heard about? IDK.

Dunno if we're still posting teams, but here's my current set. About to upgrade Olivia to a 5 star soon.

(http://i299.photobucket.com/albums/mm312/2RudeX/Screenshot_20170417-134500.png)

I call this the Hector/Takumi killer squad. Maybe that's why Takumi won't come to me. Still can't pull the bastard... :bigcry:

Don't you worry about Takumi, he's not all that spectacular, If I were to pull him, I'd sac him in an instant to put his Close Counter ability to my boy Jeorge in an instant. Such is the hate for dealing with him numerous times in the arena. :P lol

This is my team:
(https://s26.postimg.org/v23lkvc0p/Fire_Emblem_Heroes_2017-04-17-18-01-36.png]http://)

Right now, I need to grind for more SP so I can fully implement all the characters specials:

Spring Camilly
1.Gronnraven+ (I'm coming for you Takumi and kagero)
2.Rally Attack (got to show some love)
3.New Moon/Moonbow (Pretty obvious by now
4.Triangle Adept 2
5.Vantage 2
6.Hone Attack 3

Ephraim
1.Siegmund
2.Reposition
3.Moonbow
4.(don't know what to get for him just yet)
5.Vantage 3
6.Threaten Def 3

Jeorge
1.Parthia
2.Drawback
3.Moonbow
4.Life and Death 2
5.Vantage 3
6.Hone Spd 3

Marth
1.Falchion
2.Pivot
3.Moonbow
4.Deathblow 2
5.(need more vantage, have escape route 3)
6.(have spur Spd 3 but need threaten speed 3)

also I did manage to pull Alm:
(https://s26.postimg.org/j4216z89l/Fire_Emblem_Heroes_2017-04-14-17-43-58.png])

Kinda wanted to pull Lukas as well, but I want to save some of my other orbs (59 right now, +the other flier mastery orbs once i get them) for the next half of the shadows of valentia banner.

I have Clair and to be honest, she's not even bad. She has the highest base speed of all the flying units so far with 36 and very respectable defenses as well. The only real problem she has is a low base attack of 26.

Also Clair has a unique trait of being the only unit in the game who actually gains a +4 stat boost to a positive IV in 3 different stats (HP, Atk, and Def) compared to some units who gain that +4 for one stat or none at all.

Yeah, I just looked at Takumi's stats and skills more and I don't see why he's rated so high on the tier list. Is it only because of Close Counter?

But yo, I gotta agree with Jeorge though. I pulled a 4 star right away when I first started playing, but he was weak against level 30+ units. However, I got lucky and pulled a 5 star Jeorge this Saturday and he's a BEEEAST. Close Counter would be an amazing skill for him.

He has rather good stats, between his good ATK and SPD he can hit really hard, and if he only receives a Vantage, you better one-shot him or have very hard hitting units / anti-colorless weapons lest he'll take down like 3 of your guys in quick succession before you realize. He's pretty hard to actually kill without that, especially when he gets in your bad range. Faster units to avoid getting double-shot also tend to be flying ones, which make easy target. Then there are tanks who will still take 2 hits before hitting back because they're slower, or high SPD units who tend to have lower DEF, neither will get out unscathed. There aren't a lot of units who hit fast, hard, and don't have a type disadvantage to something. Takumi is in that position, and he only needs Vantage.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Suprizle on April 18, 2017, 11:14:12 pm
Okay, I figured as much. Jeorge's stats aren't too far off either. They both seem relatively the same in terms of stats if you don't include Takumi's close counter and likely having the better primary weapon of the two. The way I see it, he's basically Ryoma with range which is god like. And Vantage is just overkill. I agree!

That's where Ryoma and Olivia's dance comes in for me.  I've never struggled much with Takumi... thankfully. Including yourself, I've heard nothing but horror stories.

Nope, like I said before I didn't touch Arena till just now since I was busy leveling up Setsuna. I took that screenshot after I burned all of my crests for a complete run, but the number of successful defenses I had before then was the same.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on April 20, 2017, 01:18:54 am
My Setsuna's been getting some work done and gave me 6 more successful defenses today (16 total). Though I have a theory as to why I've been getting so much. It may have to do with Setsuna/Bunnycina being my Team Leader and how it draws attention to more people to fight my team.

For example I know a bunch of people who try to stay away from matches that have say...a Hector, Takumi, etc. as their leader since they want an easy win for that no death flawless for maximum points. So when people see my Setsuna/Bunnycina as the lead character, most would assume it's an easy win cause I'm pretty sure not all of the people who play the game knows of these characters latent potential with Skill Inheritance. Then once they enter the match, they see my roided out Setsuna/Bunnycina as well as the rest of my team and probably get blind sided with some of the skills I gave them.

What I'm trying to say is that it's sort of similar how people intentionally put a weak character up front (like a healer) so people will be suckered into fighting like 3 Hectors.

What kind of damage and bonuses do you guys deal to one-shot the blue mage ? I send my Bunny Camilla with her 46 ATK and she still can't kill him in one turn. She has to dance away to survive the armor guys, and then there's still the red mage that will also keep 1 HP after a double hit from a maxed 5* Reinhardt with a Rally Attack boost (who also has to escape away from the knights afterward).

It'll be much easier if you can just out speed the Mage and kill her through a double attack than sheer force since your Bunilla would need a minimum of 61 Atk to even one shot that Blue Mage who has 45 HP and 28 Res.

In my case, Nino and Bunnycina had buffs for days thanks to Eirika and Ninian so they can easily one shot the red and blue mages thanks to their blade tomes.

That was fast

Free 3* beat Lunatic Zephiel

And again... With 3* Zephiel from Hard at only lv1 (including Cecilia trolling Zephiel at the end).
I knew it didn't feel right to take on the mages with mages since they have lower DEF than RES (and they can't hit back at close range) and it requires a mage with really high SPD, so drag back is again the solution.

Edit - well, it also relies on double hits through Donnel's Brave Lance. Even Ephraim still doesn't hit hard enough to one-shot the red mage, and then someone dies (I could dig for attack supports to see if one combination can work but that still takes time).
I suppose other Brave weapons could work but there aren't that many, Klein's Brave Bow still needs to be 5* to hit hard enough even with double hits...

Finally got a successful defense with 278 points. someone with a 5* sword unit that saw my all spear team and probably just gave up \o/ I tried an all axe team and and an all blue tome team for a couple days without any success, but all spear seems to work (Sharena 4*, then Lukas, Peri and Ephraim 5*). Lukas also took Ignis from a 4* Henry so he can deal high damage with his high DEF.
Oh, I also got 4* Zephiel. Took most of yesterday bringing Donnel on the fast track to ~lv36, he still couldn't one-shot the red mage but it was enough for Tharja to finish that and survive. It wasn't quite like the 3* video above because the blue mage and Zephiel waited on the top left side for ever and I took some damage, but it worked out.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Her overall IVs aren't terrible. If I can find good use for her team-comp wise, she might get the next set of feathers.

I think everyone who's posted about it said they beat it.

I def skimmed the last page a bit. Only few were successful though...

Anyway, I'm having zero luck with it. I'm not sure how to stop the counters when initiating attacks. Speed boosts?

Maxed 3* Donnel wih his Brave Spear hits twice regardless of speed and has enough atk to kill the mages (at lv40, but not at 36). The alternatives are mages with super high spd for double hits and enough atk, that's what people here have used (Nino, Nowi, Julia, I've heard of Lilina too...), but there are too few of them. There are other Brave weapons, but I confirmed that Klein at 4* still doesn't hit hard enough, and I'm not sure Raven's Brave axe could kill the red mage. Reinhardt wasn't even enough to kill with double hit either back when I tried with him. My maxed 5* Tharja made up for the remaining HPs of the mages after non-lv40 Donnel and survived the counter, but I wouldn't expect everyone to have her. She also wasn't in a good position when I tried with Reinhardt (edit - scratch that, I think Reinhardt actually dies to the red mage in one counter, how fucked up is that), Donnel's drag back helped for that.

I posted a video with the 3* you get for free : Raigh, Donnel, Olivia, Cecilia. You have to lv40 them. You might still have time if you haven't touched them if you spend all of tomorrow on that.

Hector pretty much ensures I always get the 3* as long as I pay attention. I don't typically get the 4, but I also don't care all THAT much about it. It's not that difficult to get enough feathers to bring them up after all.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on April 23, 2017, 03:11:10 am
I always aim for the 4* to have one unit to raise and another for skills; GHB heroes tend to have nice stuff: Narcian is the only unit to learn lancebreaker at 4*, femRobin is the only one to learn B tome breaker at 4* and Iote's shield is exclusive to Michalis.

Oh I pulled a Hana from the ba-holy shit she has an optimal IV spread! (+ATK/-RES). QuadHana here we come.

If you have hard hitting mages + dancer the Zephiel map is piss easy. Olivia is one of the daily heroes so you can at least get a dancer.

But otherwise, yea, you might have some trouble

Dunno much of what I did initially, but I kinda used the same strat from the Free 3 vid.

I had Nowi/Ryoma absorb damage from the Mages to counter and activate their Vantage, then used Jeorge to finish them off. From there it was easy pickings. Used Jeorge as bait to pepper down the rest of them and Ryoma to keep the green knight shuffling. Jeorge/Olivia were the real MVPs.

It says that there will be special missions to befriend them (I guess that's a paralogue story for each or one for both). I assume they'll do the same for Narcian and Ursula later, they were damn hard for an early game, I wonder how much easier it'll feel now.

People really underestimate Buncina, do they? Too bad the arena team I use is consisted of members that won't bait anyone.

Out of curiousity, what's the rest of your Arena team?
Now that I say that, I wish they would add an option to fight friend's Arena teams even if there's no rewards in it.

Bunnycina only accounted for 10 of my successful defenses. The other 34 were from having Setsuna as my team lead.

Setsuna is def a dark horse. The Jack of all trades for Archers. From the sounds of it, I don't think many have caught on yet.

I've only made one defense this week against a Julia team. So I'm gonna try to bait with Olivia and see if that works. How does the system update your team anyway? do you have to win all 7 matches in a row?

Welp, managed to beat Normal Mode FemRobin with ease, with an Alfonse in the team that did nothing at all (my LVL40 Takumi and LVL38 Olwen did all the work).
But hey, I go two 2-Star FemRobins out of that, so I ain't complaining. :P
However, since I also want the 3-Star FemRobin, what team would you guys suggest to me for the Hard Mode version?

Spoiler: Dragon Emblem Arena (click to see content)
For the quests where you Use F!Robin to kill Navarre and vice versa

F!Robin = Story mode 4-4 and 4-5
Navarre = Story mode 5-1
Save some stamina by killing them here.

You'll have to do their GHB for the Level 35 and 40 respectively though.

Budget.

Lucina, Hana, Karel and others could do everything he does (and much better) but if you don't have them/are short on feathers he already has desperation 3 and killing edge+ at 5*.

The arena closes in half an hour. This week I got three cool victories, one against a dude leading with an underleveled 3* Est, another earlier today against an underleveled 4* FemRobin and just one against a dude who seemingly knew what he was doing (lvl 40 5* Marth with suboptimal SI).

4 defense wins this week for me. One early in the week, one midweek and last 2 these last 2 days.

Had Effie as my lead in the end. Maybe I'll stick with her as the lead for Arena to bait people thinking of easy kiting only for surprise mage support.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on April 25, 2017, 03:10:05 am
I was able to get a grand total of 46 successful defenses for the week inb4 none next season. Been contemplating if I should go Flier Emblem for tomorrow with Clair as my team lead, or just stick with Team Setsuna.

Also can anyone explain to me how the hell the Spur/Goad/Ward buffs works? I swear none of them proc after battle even though all of my allies are within range of the buffer. The only "Spur" type buff that I've ever seen working for me is Sanaki's Cymbeline effect.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on April 25, 2017, 03:38:43 am
You're right, they don't proc after battle. Spur/goad/ward only work during combat, like death/darting/armored/warding blow.  That's why you can stack many of them at once. Cymbeline works like hone attack and rally attack, and as such is bit less useful outside of barblade setups.

You can test it by moving your buffer around. The damage will go up (or down) if you check the combat screen, even though the attacker's stat screen has no bonus on it.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on April 25, 2017, 04:27:42 am
Oh wow, I never knew they were passive "-blow" buffs for your allies. That actually makes me want to use them now. I often thought it was a buff similar to the Hone/Fortify variety, but only applied it after battle.

It's also good to know that they're stackable. No wonder it's a staple for Flier/Armor/Horse Emblem builds.

I'm assuming that Ike's and Titania's skill descriptions mean Ike's cooldown is reduced by one and Titania's enemy's is increased ? Because it's phrased like the other way around. Checking the Japanese version on the Twitter it's not a translation problem (uh, Titania is Tiamat in Japanese, cool)

+1 charge per attack is insane. That means that if Ike fights an enemy that's both weaker and slower than him he can charge aether or any other 5 turn special in a single round.

it's worth noting that the trailer says "new story chapter" instead of "paralogue story" which might mean more orbs and more maps (maybe the black knight as an enemy to be added as a GHB later)

The new Story Chapter basically gives you a taste of the Defense Battles that are coming soon. By the way it looks, I like it and hopefully is a great way to farm SP.

Tried the new banner and pulled Titania, Mist, and 2 Ikes. Though while I was happy with those pulls, the best thing I got from it were a Ryoma and a +Spd Lyn. And with that my Fates sibling collection is complete....though I still need Normal Xander, but Spring Xander still counts.

Now for the real question...Fury or Life and Death on Ryoma? He's +HP/-Res btw.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on April 26, 2017, 03:10:45 pm
Think of it like this, do you want him to take hits, or do you want him to kill, cause usually red swords can stand up to certain things well. If I was in your shoes, I'd give him life and death and use him like a wait piece. Then again, fury builds give you a little of everything but damage you in turn but this is Ryoma we're talking about, he rushes in to things and of course he's one of the best sword units in FEH. All in all, what exactly do you want to do with him, if headlines, go fury, if you keep him in the back, life and death.

Edit: tried the banner and a got a 5* Minerva. Hell. Yes.

Looks like my luck is on recharge for this banner. Used the orbs I saved and the ones from the new story chapter + quests and the best I got was a 4* Reinhardt(Neutral stats). Great unit, but the recommended skills will​ take a while to obtain.

BTW, how's everyone's progress with the GHB quests? Only one I'm missing is having Navarre kill his Lunatic self. Having trouble finding out how to make him land the final blow and still complete the mission.

Robin was relatively easy (And by that I mean I only died 3 times before figuring it out)

Post by: Byakko on April 28, 2017, 08:37:21 pm
Comparing Ike's stats to Ryoma's, he has less SPD but more DEF, and the rest is very close. Aether heals him like crazy with his strength, Heavy Blade makes Aether come out more often (I think, I haven't actually needed to rely on it so far). Ryoma wants to kill first without getting hit, but when that's not enough against the hardest maps, Ike will live longer, being tankier with a heal. He can pick Wary Fighter instead of Vantage if you're worried about super fast units, coupled with the heal, it's even safer (but Vantage nullifies the mage threat so it depends on your team build).
I'm not saying Ike is better than Ryoma (I don't have him so I can't tell ;_; ) but he's definitely near the top of the game around him.

Got a +Atk -Res Azura(80 orbs) on my main account after like 5 summons with no blue orbs at all,which means I can now delete my second account which is a relief because having to do the missions on two accounts was a real pain I'll miss Spring Lucina and Eldigan though. Hoping Xander is great so I don't have to try for Ike or Ryoma so I can save my Orbs for Celica who hopefully is a red unit.

Post by: Foobs on April 28, 2017, 10:54:25 pm
Infantry units can't use Wary Fighter.

I was cherry picking green and blue orbs and still found myself rolling Ryoma instead of Hector. He joins the happy 5* sword family of Chrom, Lucina, Seliph, Alm and Hana. It was a +DEF/-SPD Ryoma, so he's basically Ike. I'm debating whether to give him fury/keep defiant atk and vantage to piss people off in the arena or darting blow + quick riposte to patch up his speed.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Suprizle on April 29, 2017, 12:46:45 am
I'd definitely recommend Darting Blow. He's far more effective with SPD. You also can't go wrong with a Vantage build, but Riposte might be the better choice with your +DEF.

I'm not saying Ike is better than Ryoma (I don't have him so I can't tell ;_; ) but he's definitely near the top of the game around him.

Ike's Res is also lower by quite a bit (Ryoma's lowest Res = Ike's neutral Res). But I feel your pain dude, I would also like to compare but haven't landed Ike yet. Survivability is definitely on Ike's side outside of magic units. My Ryoma is +ATK/-Res and he just barely tanks the odd magic unit. They get crushed.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 29, 2017, 01:56:42 am
Vantage and Aether+Heavy Blade make his low Res a non issue though, what blue mages are there that can survive his ATK long enough to bypass his heal as long as you plan out your timing a little ? If only the OP units are a problem, it's not that much of a problem.
What I mean is, I was soloing (with a Dancer) stages 5 to 7 levels above his own when I was turboleveling him, and he practically soloed the Robin GHB with triple mages at lv37. I might try Ursula with him when she returns.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Suprizle on April 29, 2017, 02:37:09 am
Your current build with Ike is exactly where I wanna make the comparison... :mcry:

Outside of OP blue units (mostly dragons), they can definitely wipe out most mages with little issues. I just mean when they're on the receiving end, it's almost never pretty. Especially if they counter and you still need them to take out Hector and/or Takumi later on for example. That's why I'm so curious about Ike's Aether+Heavy Blade with Vantage in terms of overall effectiveness and timing.

Post by: Titiln on April 29, 2017, 06:03:07 pm
there are situations in which ike would be better than ryoma and viceversa, but overall i'd think ike has more winning situations but not enough for me to try and get him. i mean i could put some money into the game and try to get him but i'd regret it later on

I can now delete my second account which is a relief because having to do the missions on two accounts was a real pain I'll miss Spring Lucina and Eldigan though.

I was able to pull 3 Hectors so far and I want help deciding what I should do with one of them. I already fed one of them to Zephiel, but can't decide what to do with the other one.

I was thinking of either keeping two Hectors for Armor Emblem (though I already have a 5* Sheena that can replace one of the Hectors if need be) or feed him to Titania for Distant Counter so she can be a super hard counter to Blue units (especially mages).

he's not very useful for skill inheritance fodder since his skills are fairly common, so your options are merging him, turning him into 2000 feathers, or just keep him around for the rare situation in which two ryomas would be useful

No, it's a personal weapon. You can't inherit any 5* locked weapon that doesn't have a + in its name.

Up to 10 Defense wins for me this week. I did some more SI with the scraps I've gotten and looks like it's working better.(Swapped Breath of Life for Savage Blow on Julia and gave her Rally Speed to aid Tharja when she doesn't need to attack, Olivia finally has Sword breaker 3 and Effie has Threaten Def to further ensure anything in her range is mildly inconvenienced.)


I'm theorizing that "your units die" mode to be a sort of Survival mode, if only because I seriously don't think they're willing to risk pissing off people with true permadeath.

Wow, that was fucking easy.

The left side is covered by 3 units since the green mage can also attack the same spot the lance and Xander cover, so I recommend doing the first strike from the right. Thatrja was my MVP for this one. One shot the Sword on the right. Green mage Sudokued to her. Next turn, Julia killed the lance, Tharja killed Xander and the Cleric was dead on the next turn.

GHB is easy with a team that is 10 levels above your enemy. That's why I've been telling you to do it on Lunatic.

Take out the units on the right first, as it's very risky to attack the left units without being attacked by 3 units (You're in range of the Lance, Xander, Green mage AND the Cleric. Even if you kill one, the other 3 will surely finish off your unit.) It looks like having strong ranged units definitely helps for this one.

Also it's only been 2 hours and I already have 4 successful defenses. I wasn't able to surpass last week's record of 46, but was able to get over 30 for this week.

This is the first time I've won a lunatic GHB on the very first try.

I used Ryoma, Nowi, Olivia and a healer. Sent Ryoma to the right, just outside of Xander's range but right inside the green mage's and the swordsman's range. Both died. Then Nowi blocked the chokepoint on the left and killed Xander and the lancer with the help of Olivia and the healer.

Darting Blow 3 is a bit harder to come by, you need a 4* Florina because good luck getting a 4* Rebecca and it's unlikely you'd burn a 4* Tharja unless you have a 5* one already. 3* Florina are a dime a dozen though, but then it's another 2k feathers wasted, again.

I have a question on numbers.
I gave Bunnilla a Blue Tomebreaker, and I have a choice between leaving her with Dragon Gaze (a leftover inheritance from some time back) or giving her Glowing Ember. One is 30% ATK up, the other is + flat damage of 50% DEF. Now on straight numbers, those two happen to be exactly the same - respectively 12 and 13. The difference is when I have a color advantage. Boosting ATK then throwing color advantage would make her a big Blue killer (especially mages, which is interesting as they're more likely to have higher RES), but the DEF-based boost is a lot more versatile (I gave Glowing Ember to my 4*-promoted Beruka along with Renewal and a Killer Axe, she turned out to be a pretty damn good resilient minitank after all).
Glowing Ember generally seems to be more effective, but Bunnilla, like regular Camilla, kind of struggles to find one thing she's really good at and is a bit above average on several things but gets worn down easily, so specializing her as a blue killer is a serious option. Which one would you guys suggest ?

Color advantage has no effect on dragon gaze/draconic aura/dragon fang. It deals extra damage based on the unit's atk stat, not on combat damage (you're thinking of night sky/glimmer/astra).

Post by: Darkflare on May 03, 2017, 05:54:13 am
The entire team is mage bait.

Tharja, Sanaki and Lilina are great against Hector and should still survive a hit from his counter attack despite their lackluster defense. They take advantage of his shit Res and the WTA.

For all his annoyance, Takumi can be taken down with a strong mage as well since his Res is also pretty bad. Otherwise, a tanky unit is your next choice.

Surprisingly also sports crap Res. The same 3 mages for Hector will do fine for Lucina as well. Otherwise, Reinhardt and M!Robin are my suggestions for a blue mage. Also, Vantage means nothing if the unit can't counterattack in the first place, so a ranged unit will ignore Vantage unless she also happens to have Distant Counter.

Nowi - Julia. Nowi probably has the best Res of this team, but it's average at best, so a green mage can do the job especially if Nowi is using Triangle Adept or your Green mage has an attack buff. Alternatively, any green unit with high res will do. Don't bother with a falchion user for Nowi, she usually has TA and/or Swordbreaker to deal with them. Julia just tells Nowi to fuck off.

Just a reminder that arena doesn't let you preview the whole enemy team to adapt yours, that you can't redo a lost battle, and that it's not so likely that you're bringing a specialized team (focusing on 3 strong mages) in arena.

Color advantage has no effect on dragon gaze/draconic aura/dragon fang. It deals extra damage based on the unit's atk stat, not on combat damage (you're thinking of night sky/glimmer/astra).
Checking again, are you sure about that ?
Glimmer / Astra : grants (1)50% to damage dealt
Ember : boost damage dealt by 50% of def
Gaze : grants 30% to atk
It sounds like the Dragon specials directly change the atk stats so there's an effect on weapon triangle, while Astra has the same wording as Ember, a flat addition to the damage based on the stat after the triangle.

With that being said, I was thinking, even with a flat damage, I probably still don't want to attack a red mage or an archer with Bunnilla, ever (unless maybe to finish off a crippled one). With or without the triangle advantage, Gaze is still fine.

I'm 100% sure. Go grab a low level Lon'qu and charge his night sky against a red enemy he'd normally wouldn't hurt. The damage will still be 0 (0*150%=0) even if (atk*130% > enemy def).

Also double SP ends after today so spam that training tower as much as possible.

Speaking of which, I noticed that the enemy's version (training tower, Story Missions, etc.) of Dargonic Aura seems to function differently from the normal version. It appears to increase their Atk stat by 30% during battle as opposed to giving off a flat damage value based on your Atk as a Camilla with nearly 40 Atk only did 5 damage to my Hector when Dragonic Aura proc'd. I don't know if this applies to the other stat based specials, but I would assume so.

So I did another few re-rolls, got Takumi and Kagero at the same time, then a Hector on the next set of 20 orbs, another Takumi on the next 20 and Azura on the 20 after that.

Got a few free rolls left, so I'll see how many more I can possibly grab with those.

Sure you could give that close counter to Kagero or you could continue fusing Takumi's so you have a super Takumi who baits defense wins in arena it's what i did with my Minerva's and now 90% of my defense wins come from Red leads thinking they are gonna get an easy kill off her only to learn she can tank 1-2 hits from a red and kills on her counter attack.

Anyone know what the next bonus heroes for Arena are yet?

I did manage to take everyone down except Nowi, but I highly disagree. They all had their competitive builds with Vantage 3.  It was one of the worst encounters I've had thus far. How would you counter it?
my awakening/fates superwives team of kagero and tharja (both with speed and attack hone/rally) can take them all down

Kagero is bae... kinda wish I had Rally Speed and a 5 star Kagero/Julia at the time. My Jeorge also isn't suited for Arena without dance since I have nothing for him to inherit yet. I'm over here like...

Guess I'll be on Team Sanaki by myself. :C

Anyways I already completed my Arena runs for the week and ended up getting a no death flawless. All I have to say is that Reinhardt with a +Atk IV, Death Blow, and Hone Cavalry buff is disgusting as hell. All I had to do was bait the Ninos, Julias, and the occasional Sorens with Titania who has Distant Counter and Green Tomebreaker, and then had Reinhardt wipe out the rest.

Was also able to get a successful defense with my Armor Emblem team (Zephiel, Hector, Sheena, and Effie) and can confirm that your Defense score does in fact double when using a bonus hero. I was able to get 578 points which equates to 900 feathers which is the highest you can get.

There are Special Defense maps and Quests are out as well. You can get a total of 12 orbs if you complete them all.

*sigh*... I need Julia/Takumi in my life. At this point, even Olivia is doing more damage than Jeorge.

Speaking of Olivia, is Poison Strike 3/Fury 3/Hone ATK 3 a solid set for her? I don't have Ruby Sword+ yet, so I thought I could add Poison Strike as a substitute. Possibly permanent since it's been easier to take out Hector and hurt blue units as a last ditch effort when they become problematic. Overall, more useful than just preforming Dance. She is also a +SPD/-ATK.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on May 10, 2017, 07:12:06 am
Give her Swordbreaker 3 instead. Ruby Sword/Swordbreaker is to give Olivia some extra utility in dealing with Greens/Other swords.
Fury and Hone attack are fine. Ultimately, Olivia should primarily be dancing her teammates instead of focusing on combat and this is just to provide some extra assistance.

Why are you using a Red against Blue units?

Edit: Ursula GHB returning tomorrow(or 3AM eastern).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Suprizle on May 10, 2017, 08:00:47 am
Blue units are my teams biggest weakness right now, so I've been compensating to say the least. I don't have any solid green units yet, hence why I've been crying for Julia or Takumi. I'm trying to implement as much variety as possible, which Poison Strike has saved us a few times when worst came to worst.

Kagero has been great, but she's a 4 star (+DEF/-HP) and I don't have the skills she needs to inherit yet so I've been flip flopping between her and Jeorge. I'm pretty close to making Kagero a 5 star, but until then I got very few choices it seems.

Well well, Ursula's comeback allowed me to finally finish the job and complete her Lunatic battle. As it turns out, all I had to do was kill the Armored Axe , bait Ursula closer and then have Effie slaughter everyone because the ninjas and the sword can't even scratch her(And the Ursula bait was to get her closer to Effie who proceeds to one shot her)
Spoiler: For completion's sake (click to see content)


Oh, before I forget. You fight Ursula in Story 9-3 so you can have Anna kill her there for the orb.

Yeah, the knights with ranged counter are a must to tank those ninjas and counter them. Gordin and Saizo should also manage with their high def (although their shit atk is probably bad news), and I guess the dragons but I don't raise these guys. Oh, M!Robin has advantage over colorless, right ? And then Ursula herself is manageable in two exchanges as long as she doesn't reach a red unit. Those skills these guys have though, such assholes - savage blow, escape route...

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on May 10, 2017, 09:26:18 pm
Armored units with Distant Counter help a lot, but not required. If anything you really just need a good red mage and a bulky green unit like Camilla.

Also killing off Ursula with Anna isn't as bad as you make it out to be. Mine is only a 2* Lv25 and she took care of Ursula no problem (Chapter 9-3 on Normal).

I never thought about that. Just assumed it meant the hero battle.

Btw, have any of you been banned yet for using emulators? Ive been hearing about people getting soft banned and that there was going to be a larger crackdown. Im playing on my phone and tablet, but if nintendo is really going after a large chunk of the players playing the game and not actually cheating, then they wont be getting any more of my money(also, they wont be getting any anyway cause that hero banner had me all the way up to a 20% chance of pulling a 5*(between the focus and normal rates) and all I got was Jacob. They suckered me into pulling one more time cause the rates were so high(and I kept doing it till I pulled))). Starting to think they may have shadow nerfed the summon rates the last day and no one noticed :p
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on May 11, 2017, 06:24:17 pm
I never thought about that. Just assumed it meant the hero battle
There are 2, one that specifically says use Ursula to beat GHB Ursula Lunatic, and another that says use Ursula to beat lv40 Ursula. The Lunatic 9-3 story map Ursula is lv40. They both give an orb. It could have been an extra 4* Ursula for more Death Blow to inherit, but hey.

As for the ban thing, I've grown accustomed to playing on both a phone and a tablet for games that allow multiple devices, it doesn't seem like it's any problem, as long as it's not an emulator it should be fine.
... The 5* rates really rose to 20% ? How do you know ? What I understood is that failing a full rotation at 3% would raise to next rate to 5/%, but I didn't see any claim that it would keep going up as long as you didn't get a 5*... I thought it would just stay at 5%. I didn't pull enough to test it myself (failed one rotation and then got a 5* and stopped).

Post by: Lost_Avenger on May 11, 2017, 07:06:55 pm
I got to like 14% or so iirc on the focus and like 4 or 5% on the normal 5* rate for the hero banner. Not quite 20%, but really high though. Before that the highest I ever got was like 7% on an older banner. But now that I look back on all of the summons I did before the Ike and hero banner, I kind of regret all of them except the Spring banner(and my first summon, but I didnt reroll so even that one I guess lol). I guess I should have got a screenshot of my rates, but I was honestly expecting that my last pull was going to be like 3 Hectors and a Takumi, but it was like 2 Barsts, a Nino, a Wrys, and Jacob. Should have probably pulled out when I saw the 2 Barst and Wrys trolls, but I was feeling lucky.

i never fully upgraded my castle. it's at 80% bonus experience. i look at the 10 orbs and i'd rather not spend them to get 100%. i have every character i care about at level 40 and with plenty of sp, so it's not totally necessary imo
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on May 11, 2017, 11:21:38 pm
I stopped at 60%. Maxing the castle isn't just a waste of orbs, it hurts SP grinding on the long run.

Speaking of SP grinding, the defense maps are a boon. Part 5 has about a dozen lv35 enemies and it only costs 5 stamina. That's not only just a better stamina:sp ratio than the training tower, it's not random so you only have to develop one strategy and repeat it over and over.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Suprizle on May 11, 2017, 11:27:42 pm
Yeah, I wouldn't. To be honest, I didn't notice that big of a jump in EXP maxing out my castle. It's felt more gimmicky if anything. 80% is the sweet spot.

Also, my boo has been promoted and I have no regrets.

What build are you currently using, Titiln? I hate how fragile she is, so I might drop Life and Death. She's already pretty strong (against Infantry Units) without it if you ask me. I saw a pretty interesting one the other day running Wings of Mercy with Breath of Life which I assume would make her a decent DPS/Healing Hybrid.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on May 12, 2017, 03:36:33 am
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
- death blow 3 to bring her attack to 46, to help deal with non infantry (and that can become 50 if rallied)
- daggerbreaker because i don't have enough feathers to bring up people to sacrifice (she'd get desperation or vantage). she doesn't need daggerbreaker at all. when it's kagero vs kagero it just boils down to who attacks first
- hone attack and rally speed to help tharja. tharja has the same to help kagero
- iceberg because i don't have anyone with moonbow right now, and iceberg's working out just fine right now anyway

kagero is fragile, but you're only on life and death 1 there and you gave her the hp seal so maybe she'll still be capable of dealing with one enemy attack without dying, and that increase in speed might mean not getting doubled in some cases. if you don't usually expose her to too much danger or are capable of getting her out of danger (dragging back, swap, dancing, whatever) she should be fine
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Suprizle on May 12, 2017, 05:44:11 am
Okay, nice. I think I like the idea of Deathblow over Life and Death. At least not without a guaranteed follow up attack regardless of health. Life and Death 1 is a decent choice for now. However she hardly tanks the odd attack as it is, so I won't be investing into it anymore. I'll probably go with Threaten DEF or Breath of Life as well since Hone ATK/SPD are already covered.

Also people who make their lead the character of the army they are on are the worst it screws over your team more then it helps them, i don't know what team Julia is thinking putting Julia as their lead i only get a bonus if i use my Julia when i fight in the gauntlet not when she is just on my team and Sanaki is a Red mage with TA Julia is the last character the team needs shared as the lead.

Yes Celica is a red mage which means i don't have to pull for Tharja or Sanaki on this banner.

The comeback mechanic isn't triggered by a fixed number but by a %. It seems the score changes from same to stronger when the winner has a 10% lead. Julia was pretty close to hitting that treshold (over 9%) last night but never did so we cockblocked team Sanaki from a comeback.

Burn it with fire. TF is that?

Also when merging allies, do SI skills also get transferred? like say you had an Ike you sank a ton of time into but then you pull a 2nd Ike with better IV's. Do you get to keep what skills your old unit already inherited after merging them both or would you have to start over?

I like how they listened to fan feedback on healers being garbage and fixed it with one skill on a 5* focus unit. So if you dump large chunks of money, you can make a healer hit slightly harder.

Also, the balance of this game has been wrecked by the golden week banner. Every arena match I'm in has a full distant counter team

The thing is that sometimes I could avoid spending money on this game if it weren't for the "IV system". I was able to pull Celica and Mae with the free orbs I hoarded for the past week only to realize that the Celica I pulled was -Spd which made me want to pull another one. I know IS won't do away with this feature, but I hope they implement something in the future where you can reroll it.

Also if there's anyone in Team Robin, my Celica's got your back.

I was thinking of making a Camilla with Silver Axe+ to make her atk much higher (and also giving her speed back) but that's too expensive atm. You should check out stats on the wiki before making your decision.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on May 16, 2017, 12:10:46 pm
I tried giving Camilla a hammer back when I was mad at the training tower for throwing armored knights everywhere, but there isn't that much of an armor meta; I also tried inheriting an Emerald Axe with Lancebreaker but I'm out of SP. She has decent stats everywhere else so that could be decent, tanky and fast.
It's a toss up between that and Klein ATM I guess. But 5* Emerald Axe with no + would be a shame :-\

Post by: Kohaku~★ on May 16, 2017, 07:14:51 pm
Go with Klein. He's a really good Brave Bow user that requires minimal investment in terms of skill inheritance. He's even better if you have a +Atk IV for him.

yeah, Klein seems like a safe bet. I just wish I had some Axe as good as the 5* Swords and Spears I'm drowning in, but Camilla won't be it with that kit. Brave Axe+ with Darting Blow isn't that interesting when she already has decent SPD, such a waste, and you'd need to sacrifice another 5* to get her a strong weapon.

When is it better to use draconic aura vs bonfire? I gave my Xander draconic aura, vantage, and hone cavalry. Im thinking I might go with fury for his a skill. Im tempted to just build my horse emblem team since I get tired of being wrecked by certain units in arena(reinhardt is a dick). So Im leaning Reinhardt, Olwen, Xander, and Spring Xander with Olwen having a blade tome. With my luck, they will nerf the blade tomes right after I build my team or everyone will start running that story character when she comes out.

Also considering armor emblem since it doesnt require as much from me in feathers. Draug seems like he is a bit underrated and I can run multiple Hectors if need be

I'm running Xander (quick riposte and bonefire) with Priscilla (rehabilitate and hone cavalry) supporting him and Hector (vantage and bonefire) in the arena and they're crushing everything effortlessly.

Giving Camilla Silver Axe+ will help her one shot a small handful of units that she couldn't before, but overall you'll effectively be losing the ability to one round the rest of characters she used to be able to before with Brave Axe+. What's worse is that you'll be leaving her open to more counter attacks than before.

Long story short, changing her weapon will have her take more damage than she's actually dealing.

I can actually dust off my 5* Felicia since that Fortify Res seal is awesome. Now my Ephraim and Eirika can provide 4 buffs at once which is a godsend for my Blade Tome team.

I'm running Xander (quick riposte and bonefire) with Priscilla (rehabilitate and hone cavalry) supporting him and Hector (vantage and bonefire) in the arena and they're crushing everything effortlessly.

I can actually attest to this. I was having trouble getting a no death run on my Blade Tome team due to shenanigans (fuck you twin bridge map), so I decided to become the scum of the earth and used a Horse Emblem team with Xander, Reinhardt, Titania, and Elise. I literally just buffed Xander, stuck him in the middle of the map and watch him throw out Ignis at everyone's faces because of Quick Riposte while keeping Elise tethered to him for healing and defensive buffs. Unless of course there's a blue tome user out there where I instead made Titania stand out there and wreck everything with Distant Counter/Green Tome Breaker.

tl;dr: Horse Emblem is busted yo and got my deathless run with minimal effort...

I mean this is disgustingly good

To be honest, Spd isn't a make or break stat for Eldigan to begin with. If anything if you plan to make a Horse Emblem team and don't have the resources to make a viable Xander, then Eldigan is a fine alternative as their stat spread are nearly identical.

Took a chance with sacrificing a Hinata I had and passing Fury to Xander. Only got it to Fury 2 but it was enough to do the job. I combined it with Kohaku's strategy of having Elise pocket Xander and having him do the majority of the work and combined that with Olivia's dancing and Julia taking care of the troublesome blues.

Uhm...I already have Cecilia...in fact, she was one of the first mages I got...
Plus, even if the Rite of Shadows banner is still up, there's also the Triangle Banner getting in my way, and knowing my game account and its gigantic boner for Hinata (no seriously, getting 10 Hinatas is simply not normal), it would rather give me a 5* Hinata instead of a 5* Celica. >_<

That makes no sense. Either you're getting a 5* and it's more likely to be from the banner (though not a sure bet), or you're not. Hinata being a rate up in a different banner has no impact on the Rites banner, don't make dumb excuses like that.
And for the multiple Hinatas, that's just how it is. I've gotten literal dozens of 2 or 3* Hannas, Wrys, Stahls and others. There are just some low rank units that keep coming back.
But you are not getting a 5* Hinata in the Rites banner.

I guess they wanted one of each representation of the colors. It's not that hard to imagine, plus I say it's about time that Cecilia became a focus of a banner, especially those who just want her for her Raven tome.

Also Brash Assault seems like a waste for Titania. Her speed is above average for a Calvary unit that she'll be ending up doubling a good portion of the characters already, even more so if you have a +Spd boon on her which bumps her Spd to a very respectable 37.

The wedding banner will most likely be on May 30 right after the Celica banner as I remember reading that the dataminers were able to extract info that the wedding banner image was in the game files, but it was encrypted so we won't know who it'd be.

Brash Assault triggering at low HP should speed up Sol which heals, it seems fitting. I'm not completely sure how some skills work though, I haven't had it trigger yet even at low HP but that's because I just kill people first anyway. And she's not +SPD so she doesn't double much on her own. Also I don't have too many actually useful skills to inherit so I take the leftovers. (seriously I think the Gamepedia wiki that calls everyone a nuke and advises fury, life and death, vantage, a breaker, and Moonbow for everyone is so fucking dumb with no sense of synergy)

Lyn, because her weapon has in-built desperation. And even then she doesn't need it because she's pretty fast already. Seliph can use it with armored blow or defiant defense but it's a shitty gimmick.

Brash assault is a pretty terrible b skill, only marginally better than pass and obstruct.

I know that's what people do, but... it's a bad thing. Sure there are a bunch of skills that give pitiful bonuses, but there's a bunch of varied tools - unfortunately they're too rare. Leo's 5* tome seals the target's movements (it's hilarious to pummel a close range unit from over a wall with that), the Seal X skills are pretty effective when you can have a couple units tag team a single target, but then the Hone / Spur / Fortify X skills are pathetic and barely decent at 5*. Personally I love to make a better rounded unit and try to have a team composition where everyone can play off each other and cover a large ground. A few people here talk about their horse emblem, flier emblem teams which I assume is an all horse / flier team with the goad cavalry skills or whatever they're called, but it seems like it's mostly like a waifu thing and not all that successful.
The big problem with that is that this sort of things is exactly what the ninjas are supposed to do, crush down the enemy stats (many have it directly included in their weapon) so that others can kill everyone, but they're all wet paper and their support is largely ineffective. The only popular ninja seems to be 5* Kagero because she hits well ?

tl;dr I'm not interested in the current meta brought by current limitations and poor dev insight, and I'm just hoping that they can rebalance all that some day. It puts me in difficulty in the arena when facing collections of OP units but that actually pushes me to build a team that can survive more than one hit each. And lately I've been doing a little better at that - unless the "bonus character" list fucks me (4* Xander is nearly useless compared to 5* Xander).

No.

Horse/flier emblem teams are amazing because mages like Cecilia or Spring Camilla can reach like 75 atk (and have more than enough speed to double most of the cast) once they have both hone and fortify on and a -blade tome. Horse emblem is particularly easy to run on budget.

Oh, I thought I didn't see it much in arena because it wasn't that good, but that's my point then, why isn't that kind of setup more popular than braindead HECTOR AZURA. Why isn't there a super heavy hitter like Ryoma with an AOE that just does "atk - target def" on everyone instead of trying to make everyone hit 1 target for 70.

Because the AI is braindead and horse emblem requires careful positioning to work. That's why independent, offense-oriented (and dancers) units are so good on defense. Horse emblem also has lower bst than a infantry/flier team, so probably wouldn't run into one unless you were using it yourself.

Because AOE specials are garbage. They suffer from long charge, poor distribution, mostly awkward patterns and they deal non-lethal damage.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on May 24, 2017, 01:58:51 pm
The light cross pattern is weird but the thunder line, fire cross, or wind circle are often fairly likely to catch one, maybe two more targets depending on the map (try the thunder line on the bridge map). And if you hit someone with low def/res, the calculated damage is the same for everyone, which makes it possible for your next unit to finish off someone who would be otherwise dangerous. And it can't be countered, either, so it's a good way to crush a Hector (even with Reinhardt).
But yeah, generally speaking, I tend to go for battles longer than 4-6 duels. If I can double some targets, I can land a special without too much trouble. So yeah, I build my arena teams not to OHKO everyone, but to survive and wear them down. I only need 1 unit to win. I'm also considering the fact that the asshole AI usually waits for me to bait it, so it's necessary to make sure the bait survives.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on May 24, 2017, 03:00:18 pm
That sounds fantastic except that the long charge is still a big weakness. You can trigger the short charge skills 2 times by the time you trigger that AOE special. And even then it's not something you can reliably lean on since you won't see it trigger unless your unit is doubling/getting doubled and by then you get more benefit out of the shorter charge skill anyway. There's also the fact that chipping the enemy like that can backfire on you if they're running Vantage in which case you really are better off at least ORKOing them.


Speaking of which, now that my Julia has Fury over LoD, should I switch her back to Vantage or should I stick to G-Tome breaker?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Suprizle on May 24, 2017, 06:43:49 pm
If you're looking to cover more ground, I'd go with Vantage. Not to mention it's a decent counter balance to Fury. Besides Nino and another Julia, there aren't many green mages that threaten her as much anyway. But then again, this depends on your team comp.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Rann on May 24, 2017, 09:55:43 pm
Green Tomebreaker for Arena. Vantage is not a terrible pick, but playing it safe with G.T. is still the far better option imo. I'd save Vantage for your Disant and Close Counter users, who can make the most of it.

The light cross pattern is weird but the thunder line, fire cross, or wind circle are often fairly likely to catch one, maybe two more targets depending on the map (try the thunder line on the bridge map). And if you hit someone with low def/res, the calculated damage is the same for everyone, which makes it possible for your next unit to finish off someone who would be otherwise dangerous
?
Each target receives independent damage according to their def/res.

And it can't be countered, either, so it's a good way to crush a Hector (even with Reinhardt).
It can't be countered directly, but it does non-lethal damage. If you tried that against a Hector with vantage (one of his most common b skills as he doesn't need QR) he'd kill your Reinhardt.

?

Does it ? But it ignores weapon triangle, is that it ? I don't actually check the numbers but it's still a lot higher than a normal hit (even accounting for the 1.5 multiplier)
It can't be countered directly, but it does non-lethal damage. If you tried that against a Hector with vantage (one of his most common b skills as he doesn't need QR) he'd kill your Reinhardt.
Reinhardt would bring him down to low HP and then another red unit follows up and doesn't actually need to one-shot Hector, just survive the Vantage. Which a proper red unit should easily do. It doesn't make a red mage with high def mandatory, and the top units for that are Sophia and Henry around 35 with +def and they're otherwise not very interesting.
That's the point, you shouldn't need one unit who can one-shot anyone, you spread the damage.

Also, you're supposed to plan out that strategy, don't just have Reinhardt ride up to Hector out in the open and blast him. Use other units with a similar special, you still have color advantage and terrain to take into account. Try setting Reinhardt against a wall and blast the whole corridor on the other side, or, again, the twin bridges map. People should build up their teams to account for the random factor of the maps, sometimes you're stuck on a bridge with an armored unit or you have an infantry running around a pillar with a mage sniping you from the other side.
I'm not saying it works (it doesn't because everyone goes for Vantage Hector and forgets the rest), I'm saying it's bad gameplay that the meta of this game is just going for open terrain face to face one round kill. Recently they're putting out more and more varied maps that make those situations harder (the boat in Rite of Shadow maps, the Kozuki challenge maps, the defensive maps), they make it more obvious that you're supposed to plan out a strategy. Isn't Fire Emblem known for strategy battles in the first place ? Or just the "marrying your waifu" thing ?

Also, the AI is pretty good with support skills. It's always bunching up its units when someone has a hone attack or defense or rally anything. It's only dumb with healers because it always attacks if someone is in range, so the healers on horse end up on the frontline, but on support, it makes the most of everything.

It does, and the damage is huge because the multiplier kicks in before enemy defense.

I'd never send Reinhardt anywhere near Hector. The real strategy at that point is luring Hector away with Reinhardt's superior movement and/or killing the rest of his team so you can bait him with a strong red unit, without losing a single unit. That's the hard part of any Fire Emblem - winning without casualties.

But... You can do exactly that without needing the one red unit that can one-shot him. You can lure him away and wipe out its supports and then gang up on him, using Reinhardt as the opener before the red guy finishes him off, without needing that red unit to have the firepower to one-shot him through his high defense. Hell, if you do it right you can even do it with a green unit.
You've never seen to units with reciprocal aid jerk off each other, or pivot/reposition loops? The AI is dumb as shit.
Yes, I have. That's proof that it uses everything it has every time it can. It doesn't work with reposition because they end up never advancing, but it's still very effective with the stat boost skills. We've seen AI team stacked with stat boost support skills, that's exactly what the GHB maps have, and it ends up with units that have 60+ attack and defense, that's why those maps are hard. That's how they will definitely one-shot you and you have a hard time taking them out. The GHB maps like Michalis, Zephiel were filled with that. It's only when people started having those few OP units like Hector that people could beat them with much more ease - because they're broken. Before that with more generic units like Donnel, you needed very careful planning and countless retries to have a step-by-step guide. That's what was good. Now, just almost solo Robin GHB with Ike.

(checking the stats on the Michalis GHB again, it had hone fliers, fortify fliers, and bowbreakers everywhere, now that was some synergy)

lol someone (maybe the same guy as the other times, I don't remember) did quadruple Sakura vs GHB for Lloyd, Michalis, and Robin.

There's some hearsay on reddit about Lyn's staff disabling the enemy for a turn.

Edit: English trailer


Oh, her staff prevents the enemy from counter attacking after combat....and her b skill prevents them from counter attacking during combat? not bad I guess. That could be useful to kill Hector and other units with in-built DC and QR.

Me too but I'm not really concerned. Dropping a rank (a measly 100 feathers) is a non-issue unless you're at the very top. The new arena doesn't really promote working too hard.

Besides one of the starter trio, the new banner's heroes and the last GHB there's always two of the daily units on any season, so if you leveled those up you should be fine. We'll run out of them next month, though, so IS might add some new ones.

All of the Wedding characters have really good stats, holy crap. Caeda has the potential to be another Blade Tome user with her high Spd. Cordelia has the stats to pull off a Quad bow build like Setsuna with slightly lower speed, but much higher attack. Charlotte has super high attack with decent speed. And Lyn has similar stats to Maria with the same high Spd, but with lower Res and higher defense though Lyn obviously has the better kit.

I also have a crap ton of Waifu Lyns lying around cause the game thought it was funny that I should pull 5 of them before landing Cordelia. Now I don't know whether I should merge them all or have some of my other healers inherit her Candle Staff.

He hits very hard thanks to basically Brave tome double hit and high base power (give him death blow and he can kill almost anyone), but he gets killed very easily by anyone in one or two hits, mage or physial, with or without getting double-hit from SPD. Even red tome users can give him a hard time. He's probably at least in the top 2 blue tome (I don't know much about Linde), top 5 any tome.

Took me one try, but still gave me some trouble cause of that stupid healer and the AI was somewhat unpredictable with taking the time to buff allies with Rallies instead of taking my bait.

Also in terms of skills, none of them have anything noteworthy except one of the Green Axe Cavaliers having a Ward Cavalry Buff and having pass, so take that into account before rushing into an attack or baiting for one lest you get surprised.

Yeah, I thought that was weird seeing the awkward danger spots. I didn't realize it was Pass.

But yeah, I finished it on my 3rd try. I used my main team in Ryoma, Nowi, Kagero, and Olivia. Nowi didn't last as bait on this one which was surprising. But shockingly Ryoma worked and still ate up more than half the team. This map wasn't too hard but it wasn't easy either. They did some serious damage.

Free 3* version, this time including ghb and previous missions (Narcian, Palla, Lloyd)

Basically what I did but with Ike and Caeda. Baiting the healer from over the creek for Camus to sacrifice himself so easily is quite satisfying.
But man, that enemy team setup is pretty hardcore on paper. The fucking healer kept killing my physical tanks in my first few tries, and the color setup is cruel, a land unit gets ganged up with 2 hard hitting colors and the healer, that bait turn alone is hard to survive. Even 5* Klein quickly proved to be worthless here from the back, dealing shit damage.

So uh, despite having low Res, My Julia with ATK Boon, Fury 3 and buffed with a Hone Atk 3 still can't one shot Camus despite WTA. And built in Distant counter kills Julia for trying.


Wow ok...I don't have an answer for this one.

Bonus: Olwen is in the Camus banner due to her Dire Thunder. I don't think that works because I tried doing that with Reindhart and he can't finish the job either.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 02, 2017, 11:50:23 am
I think 4* Narcian one-shots Camus without even needing a dancer. Titania doesn't though, even with all the emerald axe.

Edit to your Olwen edit :
I guess Dire Thunder is advised by the banner because of that pesky healer for a ranged fight to save your tank. But I don't see a setup relying just on that.

Yeah, you need to bait the healer away with a flier, otherwise you get ganged by two physical hitters and the healer from behind. Taking them one on one each turn is the only way.

I sent Hector with a few buffs up front and he killed the troubadour, one of the axes and wounded Camus badly. Killed Camus, did some swap & reposition shenanigans so Ryoma would move up front and kill the red mage and the remaining axe kamikaze'd on him on the next phase.

Post by: R565 on June 02, 2017, 04:08:03 pm
I gotta say guys, Camus is probably the best physical blue fighter in the game, you probably might want to swap out his A skill with something else (other than -wolf tomes not many can fight calvary units with a bonus) and make sure to keep him with other good horse units. The only thing stopping him outright is in my mind is his bad RES stat, but even then I would keep him just enough distance to fight mages rarely. He just might be the best Grand Hero we got so far...

i had ~17500 feathers and really wanted to get a 5 star zeke so i sent home my merged 5 star sheena (i already finished the stupid armor quest, i'll build up my 4 star sheena for next month) and a couple more units. gradivus has arrived

sheena's stats are a lot like beruka (except she has way more res) so i guess she could use the same build and become useful

I've seen people run Sheena with distant counter (first world problems of having too many Hectors) as a magic check, but her atk is too low for my liking.

Yeah, I have seen myself using her less and less now too. I love that she can take hits but man she hits so wimpy (not to mention that mine is -ATK +DEF).

Well here's my Sheena (+Res) with the aforementioned Distant Counter. I don't use her as an attacker, but more of a support as she's supposed to with Fortify Armor and Reposition. Distant Counter is more of a way to like you said, bait mages and help her charge Glacies which makes up for her low attack with a boosted 29 to damage.

I don't use her outside of Armor Emblem however.

Tempest Trials info
-Comes out on the 8th at 3AM eastern until the 22nd at 2:59 AM
-It's the "perma death" mode. You only lose them for this mode and only until all your teams are defeated or you beat the final map.
-It's practically a Survival mode. Can use multiple teams, lose one and you switch to the next one.
-HP and cooldowns carry over between maps, so uh....not use Fury? and bring a healer?
-10 orbs and 5,000 feathers will be given to everyone if cumulative score reaches 1 billion in the first 5 days.

Whelp, I think I'm done blowing crests for Arena this week. Even with my merged characters, I don't think I have enough points to stay in the top 35% of my tier to get promoted to tier 20 for the rest of the season...

Also dancers are dumb. They keep throwing me off no matter how much I prepare for them. Guess I'll just prepare for Tempest Trials.

I went and burned the extra crests I got from this month's quests to maintain momentum and ended with 4800. I missed out on going up a tier by a few ranks last week, so I'm hoping this is good enough to go to Tier 18.

Yeah, you'll immediately bounce back to it from tier 18. And 100 feathers aren't worth the headache of burning crests, hand-picking enemy teams and starting all over if you lose a hero. Breaking into tier 19 (let alone 20) is still going to be pretty hard for a couple of months.

Am I the only one who's more hyped about feathers and the new quickened pulse seal than a 5* Lucina Marth?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 06, 2017, 11:25:45 pm
I've gotten stuck around 15 or 16 for like 3 weeks I think. I usually get a good enough rank to climb one rank (it's hard enough), but right on the last day I get pushed out and stay in the same tier. Third time in a row.
People in the arena are assholes.
That being said, I like the current ranking system a lot more. If someone is around your rank, it's a much safer bet that you can take them on, it's not going to be a whale's shiny new account that already has 2 Hectors and 2 Takumis with Vantage and +SPD at tier 4 (I used to face a lot of these assholes before - and I still keep running into the same Ekura guy like twice a day).
Oh well, ever since I stopped frantically promoting 3*s to 4* just to inherit better skills unto someone else, arena has been giving me plenty of feathers, 5k per week (or 4k ? I forgot) is okay (plus 500 every now and then from using a given unit a lot, and a bit more when I send a new batch of 3*s home). I was able to 5* Xander barely a week after I pondered over Klein or Camilla, and I'm approaching enough for Camus again. Camilla's still waiting.

I've been thinking about using my spare Hinoka to give Charlotte Beave Lance with Death Blow. Only problem is that I can't decide whether to feed Hinoka to someone else for Hone Fliers or give her to Charlotte and that my only spare Death Blow is on my 4* +Atk/-Def Kagero.

Wanna help me decide?

i'm at tier 17 and i don't give a shit if i never go above it

Yeah, I'm starting to accept that mentality. An extra orb and 1k feathers isn't worth the headache especially next week if I happen to get to tier 20 since I'll only be able to hold on to that rank for one week before being demoted after getting my shit pushed in by all of the +10 characters  associated with that rank.

Am I the only one who's more hyped about feathers and the new quickened pulse seal than a 5* Lucina Marth?

I'm honestly more excited with the feather making opportunities. So close to 20k so I can promote Camus or another worthwhile unit in my roster.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 06, 2017, 11:29:51 pm
1k feathers
Just 100 for the difference from one tier to the next. 1k would be a lot to sweat about. But yeah, it's fine to not get a rank up now.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 06, 2017, 11:44:50 pm
The difference in feathers from tier 19 to 20 is 1k feathers. You get 3k for getting promoted to tier 20, but still get 4 orbs.

Hah, I'm nearly done with the "clear stratum 10 with flier team" mission. Without anyone to level, I need to spend my stamina on something - and I find that it's been pretty nice in forcing me to balance my teams. Fliers aren't very balanced in the first place, many have more SPD and RES except the axe users, the only flying non-physical attacker is Bunnilla IINM... Getting a balanced skill set over a whole team like that is a bit of fine tuning.
Horse mission will be easier with several distant counter-capable units, and there are more options geared toward rescue with a better stats balance, as well as strong mages.

So I've been running Tempest Trials a few times and I believe 705 is the maximum score you can get for a single run on Lunatic (7 Battle). You can lose a unit during a run and you'll still be awarded the full 1.2x bonus for Survival, as long as you can complete the entire run with the same team you started with.

(http://i.imgur.com/wQPSBzk.png)

Regardless...this will take a while getting all the rewards, unless you have a ton of stamina potions to burn.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 08, 2017, 11:10:38 am
You have 14 days and if you keep getting that sort of score, you need to cycle through it under 50 times for 5* Mask or 150 for the full list. Doing it like 10 to 12 times a day should do it. So you need to burn through a bit over 2 stamina bars a day, which is approximately a day's worth of natural refill, assuming you don't let it overflow (don't let it sit at 99 for an hour). You'll only need a few potions here and there at most - if you can stick to that score.
But that's a high score. I'm not even bothering testing the top stratum myself right now (although I'm doing well on the one two steps below so far). I'll be happy to get the free 5*.

This. I burned a stupid amount of crests just to make Tier 18 next week. Mostly my fault since I could have waited for the reset, but got too eager.

Regarding Tempest Trials, this mode is amazing. Besides Arena, the game is actually fun to play again since I don't have many units to train and keep pulling the same bullshit. Real shame this mode is a limited event...

It's all fun and games until the RNG pits you against BS units.

The only unit that really tore me a new one was a 60+HP Takumi who had Vantage. His speed was high enough that none of my Blade Mages could activate Desperation to quickly finish him off and any damage I dealt to him from my units pulled him into Vantage range. I had to bust out Horse Emblem to take him out...

I'm actually more relieved to find a 72HP Hector than that monstrosity.

I can relate to this and hopefully IS does introduce an IV re-rolling mechanic at some point, but my only gripe about it is that if such a system were to be introduced, everyone and their grandmother would be using units with their optimal IVs which kind of kills the variety and uniqueness of every character.

Don't get me wrong, I hate it when I pull a character I really want only for it be shafted because of stupid crap like this (my Linde with +Atk/-Spd for example). It's literally an RNG within an RNG. I'm starting to think this is some ridiculous in-joke by IS referencing past Fire Emblems' use of utilizing 2 numbers with when calculating RNG...

How's everyone liking the event so far? I personally like it as it's a great way to grind SP and Hero Merit. When I first started using Tharja she was basically bare bones with no Hero Merit and only really had Darting Blow 3, but after a few days of Tempest she's now fully decked out through skill inheritance. She is even on the verge of maxing out on Hero Merit which happens to be the case for my other characters whom I'm running Tharja with.

I'm already at 45k points with only using 2 stamina potions so far, so I'm halfway there. Once I get all the rewards out of the way I'll probably continue running Tempest with other characters so I can take full advantage of the SP and Merit gains.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 11, 2017, 11:42:18 pm
I noticed the quickly rising Hero Merit too, but I didn't check out the SP because I use teams already full on inherited skills.
I barely get about 2k points a day (I only got The Mask yesterday), I just run the last Hard level because the lunatic ones really annoy me, it's just too long and way too unstable. On Hard, I have a chance of finishing it with my starting team once in a while.
edit - holy fuck Tharja has 1064 SP. Thanks for the tip, I'll try this way of farming.

You build HM like crazy with the Tempest trials but I find the inflated enemies to be a bit too much at times. I lost a run because my Ninian couldn't kill Veronica when she had 2 hp left. She could only do 1 damage, then she recovered 10 then game over.

The HM gains are so crazy I maxed out 4 characters in the past days (tbf they were over 1,000 to begin with). I had a barebones Linde I hadn't touched in a while (bad ivs) and I got enough sp in a single day to inherit the whole breath of life line of skills. Thanks to the new seal she's healing 15 hp each time she attacks.

I'm about to get 5* Lucina but I don't have any use for her. The real price is that sweet quickened pulse seal.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 12, 2017, 04:12:42 am
I'm fortunate to have multiple teams to fall on, but having a Blade Tome Mage with Desperation and high speed will make quick work of the Trials. It almost seems as it was tailor made for this kind of team due to the bloated stats of all the enemies on Lunatic.

Then again I don't run a healer outside Horse Emblem with Elise so I make it a priority to get any of my Blade Mages into Desperation range to reduce any sort of damage. When it comes to enemies with high Res that would survive an attack from my Mages, I would just have Bride Cordelia deal with them.

Used my free orbs and was able to pull Katarina and Athena. I might actually save Katarina and probably feed her to Clarisse for Swift Sparrow 2 depending on her stats when she's released. I know it might be different when she's finally out, but if her stats are similar to that of her Lunatic counterpart in the Paralogue, she might have a similar stat spread to Bride Cordelia (34 Atk/38 Spd).

Stats for Clarisse and Legion provided by a user on Reddit. Skills shown here are not their default ones as Clarisse has Glimmer/Night Sky, Poison Strike, and Threaten Def while Legion has Retribution/Reprisal, Fury, and Obstruct.

For Clarisse's actual stats, subtract 4 on all of her stats. Overall Clarisse has a similar stat spread to fellow Archers Takumi, Klein, and Jeorge with mostly having slightly higher Spd with lower Atk. Legion on the other hand is looking really good with high base Spd and Atk.

I hope Clarisse comes first. After countless healers, Gordins and a memorable -spd Jakob I've become allergic to pulling white orbs.

Speaking of pulling, I got skinny Draug after hitting 3.75% pity rate. I was going to sacrifice him, but checking his stats he has an ideal IV spread (+atk/-res). With his skill, hone cavalry and (a single) goad cavalry he can reach 60x2 (!)

Inverted Harsh Command, turns all + into - on the target after combat. Until the next round only, so either gang up on the target or center your skills on the defense phase.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 15, 2017, 10:35:05 am
Legion's Axe basically inflicts Panic after combat. It sounds good on paper especially against specialized teams that rely on buffs like Horse Emblem, but in the current meta you want them dead in one go so it's niche at best and it only applies to the target instead of an AoE Panic debuff like Veronica's weapon. However the Axe is inheritable should you feel the need that another Axe user would fare better with it.

Clarisse's weapon is also inheritable and is basically a ranged version of Female Corrin's Dark Breath (AoE debuff which lowers Atk and Spd by 5 of everyone within 2 spaces of the target) which is incredibly useful and much more effective in debuffing enemies than Legion's weapon and isn't as situational.

Post by: Darkflare on June 15, 2017, 10:44:53 am
I hope Legion's lousy Res carries over to the GHB so I can just kill the right one with Julia and have that Blue mage kamekaze afterwards although I may have to bring Olivia to dance to ensure that kill. I could try bringing Tharja and Rein for the left side. Then I just have to hope I can safely take out that bow.

Then again, things never go as plan, do they?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 15, 2017, 11:56:20 am
You will definitely need 2 shots to take out the Legion on the right with Julia. If you're using Olivia to give Julia a second shot, keep in mind you will also be leaving her in a vulnerable position for the Blue Mage Cavalier to still snipe her as she's within range. Be sure to use positioning skills with your remaining team to get her out of there.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 15, 2017, 08:01:18 pm
Look again at the right side of the map.
it would require someone with reposition, who can tank a blue mage. And if you need both a dancer/singer for a double hit then the reposition, that dancer would have to be on the bottom left defense tile, thereby exposing herself to the red mage on the left.
The Legion on the left with the red mage should be fine with the first Tharja or Leo that comes along, surely. That's a 21 res stat, right ?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on June 15, 2017, 08:18:40 pm
Going by the starting position
12
34

I'll just have Olivia in the 1 position and Julia in the 2 position and move them up 2 spaces. Unless there's something that can increase mage range to 3, the only thing hitting Olivia immediately after is the red mage.

Unless I'm getting your wording wrong in which case

Why would be worried that Julia is in range of a blue mage?

Legion Battle is out, and surprisingly no Banner to go along with it.

However unlike previous GHB's, there 3 different difficulties now. Hard, Lunatic, and Infernal. You can potentially get 2 4* Legions, a 3* one, and 2k feathers if all are completed.

Any suggestions? I don't have any powerful red mages or Julia and I'm kinda out of ideas now, and I'm merely trying the Hard Mode version...

Reinforcements will only come once you've killed a pair. Try to remember what the next Legion will come with and prepare accordingly once you've killed their previous friends.



I'll be damned if MkV finds a way to beat Infernal with 3 star units. Enemy stats are crazy boosted in Infernal.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 16, 2017, 11:41:45 am
Was able to clear all the difficulties, but Infernal really lives up to its name at least for me. I actually had to teach Sanaki Axe Breaker so she can one shot all of the Legions reliably.

Basically used Nino to take care of any Blue Mages, Blue Cavalier, and Bowman while Reinhardt took out the Red Mages and the Red Cavalier. Olivia was there to dance and tank a hit from a Legion if necessary due to Ruby Sword+ (thank goodness I didn't have to). I literally had to hug the bottom right corner of the map to effectively funnel the last remaining reinforcements.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 16, 2017, 12:18:37 pm
I thought Ninian and Azura were too much of a liability with all those Legions, so I took Olivia instead.

Also there seems to be a bug in the Grand Hero Battle where there's invisible Defensive Tiles in places where there shouldn't be located at the top of the map pictured below. Keep that in mind when playing the map so you won't make any unnecessary attacks on enemies who're standing on those tiles.

IS has no plans to fix it right now, but will be sending some free orbs our way as an apology at a later date.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on June 16, 2017, 07:57:40 pm
i don't remember how i moved them exactly, it took a lot of tries and it was really late. i only remember for the first move i barely did anything, only exposed nino to the blue mage and nobody else. i might try to do it again for illustrative purposes but fuck that map

azura had spd+3/wings of mercy 2/fortify res 3/iceberg
tharja had darting blow 3/axebreaker 2/hone speed 3/rally attack/luna
nino had res+3/desperation 3/hone attack 3/drag back/luna
sakura had pain/rehabilitate/imbue/fortify def 3/imbue

it involved keeping the blade mages close when possible (azura and sakura as well for their stat boosts) so they'd support eachother
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 16, 2017, 08:12:20 pm
Darting Blow and Speed+ are so useless when Legion has 42 SPD and the red mage has 38. There's so much inheritance required to make it work.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on June 16, 2017, 08:32:15 pm
yeah, she used axebreaker to reliably double them. darting blow made zero difference here but it's what i use in tempest trials and arena and i had nothing else to give her at that point (death blow would've been better). a lot of the default skills on my list can be replaced by something better, but they sufficed for me
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on June 16, 2017, 10:33:55 pm
Looks like I would need a few more skills to pull it off. Might be plausible if I give Julia the Axebreaker skill, but I don't think I have a WoM to pass to Olivia. Thanks anyway.

Post by: Titiln on June 16, 2017, 10:41:48 pm
the builds i had there weren't specific to this map, they just happened to work. the only difference is that i gave axebreaker to tharja. i don't think i even used wings of mercy ever during my run because all units were usually close to eachother. if axebreaker julia can constantly get rid of legions and deal with the blue units as well then you might be able to pull it off

Yup. That's not even a slight exaggeration.

You can possibly squeeze by without Axe Breaker, but you 100% need ranged units on this one. I've managed to beat Lunatic after a few tries. Infernal however, without a dancer (Wings is a plus) and solid red/green mages, there's little to no chance. It's a fuckin' nightmare.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

Darting Blow and Speed+ are so useless when Legion has 42 SPD and the red mage has 38. There's so much inheritance required to make it work.

If you have a Rally or Hone Speed buff, you can still double with Darting Blow 3 as long as your minimum speed is 37 which a lot of the Blade Tome Mages are capable of doing. Granted some of them need a +Spd IV, but those with a base Spd of 36 like Nino, Linde, Bunnycina, etc. just need to use a Speed seal.

That being said, I think trying to get into formation to buff the Blade Mages takes a lot more time than just one shotting a Legion with a high Atk Red (recommended) or Green Mage with Axe Breaker. Which is crucial since you don't want the reinforcements to swarm you.

My strategy was to wipe out the enemies on the right, then kill the reinforcements on the center while setting a buffed Camus where he could take on the archer and red mage. The next wave of reinforcements are in disarray since they spawn on top of the map and legion can't keep up with cavalry units.

BODIED! (4+ stamina potions later...)

Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

I can't I recall much of what I did for the last couple of turns, but for most of it I kept everyone close at the bottom and had to bait them in for a solid 4-5 turns.
The toughest part about that was getting the last Blur Cav within range before he takes center and covers the entire map. Also to mention planning around the archer/invisible tile as well; otherwise, holding the center is definitely doable and likely would've been the simplest way to beat this map. Wings of Mercy Olivia was a god send. Landing the last hit was orgasmic.

Kinda late, but for those who don't know the game added weekly Arena quests for the next 3 weeks which have a Normal, Hard, and Lunatic version which rewards Orbs, Crests, and Stam potions.

Cecilia with a Gronnblade Tome is only viable if you plan on running a Horse Emblem team with Cavalry buffs, otherwise don't bother as Cecilia is better off with her default Tome anywhere else.

Despite that, I would just focus on prepping your Nino as she's a great investment in the long run, especially with events like Tempest where nuking in one shot is the way to go.

The banner seems to be busted as I got a 4 star Maria and Lachesis from it. I managed to get a 5 star Sakura but I'm worried about the Fury Banner now. I want to give Olivia a Ruby Sword+ without levelling any units with it to 5 star.

I feel your pain on that one.

I'd prefer Ruby+ for her myself, but I honestly wouldn't gun for it. More to you if you get it, but Silver Sword+/Triangle Adept 3 isn't a bad alternative and it's far more cost effective. The damage output compared to Ruby+/Fury 3 for example is basically the same and you won't suffer the recoil.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 24, 2017, 07:28:18 am
The main advantage of giving her Ruby Sword+ is to free up her A-Slot, thus making her more flexible and more open to other options

Also the reason why most people slap Fury 3 on Olivia and Azura is literally the increase in all stats (obvious I know) while still keeping the Triangle Adept provided by Ruby Sword/Sapphire Lance. Most of the time you won't have your dancer engaging in battle so the recoil isn't much of an issue compared to more offensive units, but if you're caught in one the stat boost could prove vital to survive an otherwise fatal hit or prevent being doubled.

So yeah, there's nothing wrong with just opting for Silver Sword+ and Triangle Adept on your Olivia, but investing in a Ruby Sword+ for her will be more worthwhile in the long run.

The banner seems to be busted as I got a 4 star Maria and Lachesis from it. I managed to get a 5 star Sakura but I'm worried about the Fury Banner now. I want to give Olivia a Ruby Sword+ without levelling any units with it to 5 star.

There's only two Red units who have Fury and that's Eldigan and Hinata. It's nowhere near as saturated as pulling from the Healer banner. Yes, you'll probably end up with Eldigan instead, but at least he's a really viable unit.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Suprizle on June 25, 2017, 05:21:01 am
Yeah, exactly. That's more or less what I was getting at.

Ruby+ is definitely the best option for survivability, no question. However, if you have access to Triangle Adept, it's literally the exact same thing minus the A slot which is why I wouldn't recommend dumping feathers and/or orbs into it... unless you have the extra currency lying around of course lol.

Which team is everyone going to join in the Cleric Wars? I haven't decided, but depending on everyone's decision I might join with you guys or just end up joining a less popular team for easy feathers.

Also does anyone know if Brash Assault activates when engaging ranged characters with Close Counter?

Post by: Darkflare on June 26, 2017, 05:02:17 am
I'm considering passing this one because I don't want to be given a team of healers while the enemy actually has attackers.


Or maybe I'll just go Elise.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on June 26, 2017, 05:08:22 am
I think I'll pick team Priscilla and then the runner up if she fails.

Since every single unit on this gauntlet is colorless and most simpletons will put their healer of choice as leader I'll set Cecilia as mine.

(http://i.imgur.com/Cbh8iDS.png)

I can change gronnraven+ to gronnblade if anyone on team Priscilla is going to run her with hone/fortify cavalry (like me).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 26, 2017, 07:00:04 am
I think I'll join Priscilla as well since I think Elise and Sakura will be the more popular teams in the gauntlet. Only because I want some easy feathers without having to log on the game every 30 minutes just to keep my position.

Those in Team Priscilla will also have help from my Cordelia:

(http://i.imgur.com/i9rxaw5.png)

Even with -Atk, she still hits like a truck.

Also why don't you use Triangle Adept for your Raven build? +3 Atk seems poultry compared to the 60 Atk you can be getting if you run Adept while attacking Colorless and Blue units.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on June 26, 2017, 07:18:37 am
Two reasons:

1) I run gronnblade 99% of the time. That gronnraven+ tome is only for the occasional archer or Genny (think of that awful map with the SoV mages on defensive tiles) and even then gronnblade and horse emblem's brute force tends to be superior. ATK+3 is only there because it's free. LaD and Fury3 are overkill while Cecilia's fully buffed. Escape Route is also filler as I ran out of Henrys for G tome breaker.

2) Resources. The only source of TA3 at 4* is Roy. I only have a 5* and even though I don't even like Roy sacrificing him (for a build I wouldn't even use) sounds wasteful. I'm pretty sure IS will implement a new feature to change unwanted 5*s for something more valuable than 2,000 feathers somewhere down the line, which is why I'm diametrically opposed to sacrifice them for anything but weapons. TA2 comes from Selena at 4*, but she's a valuable source of reposition and threaten speed, so again, sacrificing one for build I'd rarely use is wasteful.

Female Robin is a lance user, Tiki looks like an Axe one, Gaius is Bow, and Frederick is Dagger. I'll probably just get Female Robin, cause it would be nice to have one that isn't just Green Male Robin that everyone seems to make her out to be.

Also yay, finally at Tier 20. I'm not even going to attempt to keep that rank. It's just nice to know I was able to get in at least once.

Man, the Priscilla / Clarine gauntlet is super tight. Is that because of the new loser multiplier ?
On the summer banner... I might actually give it a go  just once or twice if the skills are good. I'm curious about dagger Fred if that's indeed a dagger (could also be blue mage, right ?), seeing how skills have been powercreeping with unique effects lately, are they actually going to make a ninja (beside Kagero I suppose) anything above decent for once ?? And I guess Tiki will finally increase the very undercrowded strong axe user.

So, who have you guys been feathering up to 5* so far, and are you happy with it ?
I've done Tharja, Klein, Xander, Camus and Nino.

Now that's the sort of skills a ninja should have. The panic ploys and weapons, gravity, firesweep lances and bows preventing counters, and I think there's a healer walking around with a weapon that prevents all attack by the target in the turn... But no, they keep giving those stuff to new units that don't work with them (Legion's high Atk and Spd why does he care to debuff after combat) and ninjas are useless. Give a ninja firesweep and poison or other debuffs that apply after any combat even when attacked, or a gravity with hit and run !

Clarisse Grand Hero Battle releasing tomorrow (6-28). Infernal Mode makes a return.

(http://i.imgur.com/dlhssFJ.jpg)

So, who have you guys been feathering up to 5* so far, and are you happy with it ?
I've done Tharja, Klein, Xander, Camus and Nino.

The characters I promoted to 5* were:

1. Tharja - I actually pulled a 5* one before, but had to promote a 4* one cause that one was +Spd.
2. Zephiel x2 - I wanted a good Red Armored unit. The second one was fed to Celica for Life and Death 3.
3. Palla - Flier Emblem shenanigans.
4. Xander - Horse Emblem shenanigans.
5. Hana x2 - Life and Death 3 inheritance
6. Effie - Wanted to make a Brave Lance+ build on her, and the only Effie I pulled who had +Atk was a 4* one.
7. Nowi
8. Female Corrin
9. Odin x2 - Blade Tome inheritance
10. Reinhardt - Same reasons as Tharja except the 4* was +Atk
11. Cherche - Flier Emblem shenanigans
12. Camilla
13. Nino x3 - As soon as I promoted a neutral Nino, I pulled a +Spd/-Def one soon after. I was livid. Fed the third one to Bunilla for Blade Tome.
14. Setsuna - Quad bow shenanigans
16. Felicia - I liked her in Fates...
17. Kagero - Same reason as Nino. Pulled a 5* +Atk/-Spd and accepted my fate. Pulled a 4* +Atk/-Def soon after. Happy and mad at the same time.

I'm happy with all of them except Camilla. I just really wanted her back when the game launched and only was able to manage pull a 4*.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on June 28, 2017, 08:38:19 am
Like Robin ♂ you need a +Atk Camilla to make the most of her. With Legion being a thing I figured I would promote him and Camilla then feed her the Legion Axe+ (or maybe Grandpa Wesker's Silver Axe+)

The units I've promoted to 5* are:

Sharena: Good all rounder, appears as bonus unit a lot
Anna: Good at killing Reinhardt, Ninian and Azura. Appears as bonus unit a lot.
Eirika: Like the character, great unit. +atk -def
Xander: Same as Eirika
Camus: He's broken lol
Nino: best unit that comes in 3 star rarity. Got her with +speed -hp so yay
Gordin: Food for some other archer I guess

Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 28, 2017, 09:26:54 am
Grand Hero Battle for Clarisse is out with Hard, Lunatic, and Infernal difficulties available. No banner release like last time.

Was able to complete all the difficulties with little to no stress compared to Legion's. Game Over'd once in Lunatic, but was able to breeze once I learned through my one mistake.

(http://i.imgur.com/3WVKNny.png)

No reinforcements like Legion's so this one is a lot easier, but comes with 6 enemies to deal with in Infernal with all of them having high stats backed with prominent skills like a Green Cavalier with Triangle Adept to counter Male Robin if you plan to bait Clarisse or the Thief (who has high Spd and Windsweep to negate most Distant Counter units).

In Infernal, Titania was the MVP here. With the Horse Buffs, she was able to tank both hits consecutively from the Thief and Green Cavalier. Due to her +Spd Nature, Distant Counter, and Green Tome Breaker, she was able to still counter the Thief and still had enough HP to double and kill the Cavalier.

I then had Reinhardt take out Clarisse, the Blue Mage, and the Red Sword Fighter, with Xander heavily wounding the Red Cavalier who was low enough that even Titania with Green Emerald Axe was able to kill him in one shot. Then I proceeded to finish off the Thief with Xander.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on June 28, 2017, 10:08:30 am
Units I 5*ed
Marth - Was good before SI, but stopped bringing him to battles. Wasted 20k feathers since I ended up feeding his Pivot to Effie.
Effie - Best armored unit. Has worked well for me.
Tharja - One of the best red mages around.
Xander - First GHB unit I upgraded to 5*. Has worked well, but I usually stick to Tharja for Red.
Olivia - Mostly for arena score, the few extra stat points don't hurt.
Reinhardt - Oh sweet I pulled this guy. Well, neutral stats are good enough and I doubt I'll get another anytime soon. (Pulls 2 Reinhardts with +Def/-SPD, one of them a 5* a few days later.)
Camus - Arena shenanigans.

Spoiler: Clarisse Lunatic (click to see content)
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on June 28, 2017, 05:52:28 pm
infernal was some bullshit. it's essential to have a unit that can take the hits from the dagger unit and the green cavalier and kill them in return. the dagger is the hardest because of windsweep. my fury ryoma with the speed seal, quick riposte and rallied speed was able to do it. i figure a quick riposte tharja could do it as well, as long as you get her speed up
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on June 28, 2017, 07:29:17 pm
I found this GHB's Infernal difficulty much easier than Legion's. Horse Emblem Fury Xander can tank the whole enemy team (minus the blue mage) if he's standing on a defensive tile. Watching Clarisse deal a grand total of 2 points of damage (and that's without fortify cavalry) with her special is delightful.

Units I 5*'d: Chrom (benched), Nowi, Michalis, Xander, Camus, Cecilia, Draug (fodder). Clarisse and Tharja are next.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on June 28, 2017, 09:03:41 pm
Summer units max base stats (neutral with no weapons/passives):

Gaius:
HP - 34
Atk - 30
Spd - 37
Def - 19
Res - 28

Frederick:
HP - 40
Atk - 32
Spd - 31
Def - 28
Res - 18

Female Robin:
HP - 35
Atk - 32
Spd - 34
Def - 28
Res - 29

Tiki:
HP - 35
Atk - 36
Spd - 30
Def - 32
Res - 24

Overall nothing too spectacular compared to the Bridal banner, but Gaius is looking really good here. Hate to say it, but he's literally a much better Setsuna as a Brave Bow user. So if you plan on pulling on this banner and missed out on Bride Cordelia, Gaius is a good alternative.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 28, 2017, 10:42:55 pm
Infernal for anyone who 5*'d Xander and Camus (because everyone should, just do it already) and nothing else. Not even skill inheritance, just raw stats from two broken units.

I had a run where the green mage went to the right and the ninja hid to the left, and that resulted in Xander's death by ninja + sword infantry, but leaving my Sakura to the right from the start instead of going to the bottom left gave me the same configuration as that video and a victory. Didn't even need the heal I was planning for.
Basically tanking everything physical from the defense tiles and killing the blue mage with AOE "fuck your weapon triangle" special. Even 3* Olivia comfortably tanks the red cavalry somehow for Camus to kill him.
5* Xander 3* Ursula 3* Donnel too ?? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2GZZebsHqc) (still Xander tanking everything, Ursula and Donnel replacing Camus)
Or 5* RobiM and 4* Tharja + Nino (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fke4zFQCA9A) for full mage.

Hahaha even better. Damn, that's really tight.

Based on the videos, it seems you have to get in there and attack right away. I'm still working on Infernal, but this isn't nearly as difficult as the Legion GHB, nor do they hit as hard. It's just the shitty starting position you have to work around.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on June 29, 2017, 01:36:58 am
Yeah, you go in with Xander because the blue mage actually has a shitty starting point and by the time he reaches you, you've countered half the map to death and charged your special (I knew these specials shouldn't be underestimated !). You just have to make sure you can take out the runaway cavalry, and have a way to finish off the ninja.
The 3* Raigh Donnel Doublivia tactic gets you in super deep shit cornering you to the edge of the map with a large wave coming at you, I'm baffled that fucking Raigh survives this with his 19 DEF, considering that these maps tend to have inflated stats that can one-shot your biggest tank if you don't one-shot everyone first. But as soon as Olivia survives the cavalry in the Xander-Camus tactic, you know that they dialed back the crazy on this one.

#TeamSakura

Sakura was in a good lead when it started, but fell off almost immediately.

Also, Infernal wrapped!

Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

I had little issues wiping out the map on several different scenarios, but the blue mage was a pain in the ass in the end. I had to keep Nowi at full health most of the time because of him. I could only use her to take out the red units (they did no damage at all) and keep her on stand by to tank his hit and kill him.
Aside from that, Vantage Ryoma/Kagero did work.

Was able to pull a +Spd/-Res Robin, +Atk/-HP Gaius, and a -Spd Frederick. I promptly fed Freddy to Clarisse for Atk/Spd Seal 2. I still need to get Tiki, but I'll hold off for now. Banner lasts till the end of July so I can bide my time.

With those IVs I'm going to make Robin into a Firesweep Lance user and Gaius into a Brave Bow (which the game graciously gave me a 5* Klein while pulling just for this occassion).

Robin's Lance Valor and Double SP weekend bonus stacks, I'm able to get 12 SP for every kill, holy crap.

OMG, Yess! I get another crack at pulling my bae, Mae!

TOBIN!? BUT HE'S LAME!
tobin killed the most units on my echoes run so im happy about this

xander was going to be my next 5 star unit but i got a 4 star mae a couple days ago so he'll have to wait

whew i have sakura

Well, I have been training my boy Legion last week so I guess I could put him to use.

However, I just got done putting mad work getting my 3 star +Spd/-Res Nino up to a 5 star, so don't think he's worth the 5 star upgrade ahead of Effie, Xander and Cordelia right now. This will be a rough couple of weeks...

If you just care about getting your weekly feathers/orbs, just stick one of them into your core team (regardless of level/skills) and just go about Arena like you would normally do.

A lot of people add a random bonus hero despite being underleveled and whatnot just for the sake of the 2x point bonus.

Looks like this is the big prize seal this time:
Quote
When any skill compares this unit's Spd\nstat to another unit's, this unit's Spd stat\nis counted as +5 over actual value.
Seems pretty niche (it's pretty obvs meant for Alm). Is there another skill reliant on speed besides windsweep and watersweep?

http://imgur.com/a/mBtAz

you dont necessarily have to use 4 great units each team either, you could manage the first map with a good green and a good blue (and two lvl1 jobbers for filler) for example

Suuuuper glad about the permanent tempest mode (chain and squad) if it's going to be as cost effective for SP / HM / feathers, and if it gives decent skill seals.
chain challenge chapter 1+2 on normal gives 3sp each kill and all the units have shitty stats. 30 stamina for 10 fights :pwn:

Post by: Kohaku~★ on July 05, 2017, 08:40:55 am
Isn't the 3 SP per kill in Chain Challenge only applied during the first completion? I assume it's the same way those Yusuke Kozaki maps worked. If anything they're great for farming HM.

There's an exploit. You keep the SP from past rounds even if you give up, so you can actually cycle through 9 battles and give up on the last, always getting +3 SP.

I already cleared Chain Challenges 1-6 since I wasn't aware of the exploit, but I'm going to save the 10 battle Chain Challenge of Chapter 7 and 8 as my SP farm. The worst part is that these chapters have that stupid labyrinth map with the breakable walls.

Also, Mae the bae finally came home last night. 2 sessions and got her on the last pull. Still have plenty of orbs left over too.

+DEF,-HP. Not the greatest but I ain't mad at it.
(http://i.imgur.com/NTZBXBi.png)

I'm reading that she's an expensive build tho. I'd use my 5* Reinhart if I didn't hate him with a passion. All I can give her at the moment is Darting/Death Blow or Fury. WoM might be good too, but I'm not sure what build to go with yet. Is there anywhere else to look up builds besides the wiki page?

Bound Battle with Alm and Celica is out with Hard, Lunatic, and Infernal difficulties with a total of 9 orbs when completing all of them. A banner has also been released with Clair, Lukas, and Genny. Surprisingly no Celica to the anger of many to round out the Valentia themed banners.

Beat all the difficulties, but Infernal was annoying due to that Green Mage with Windsweep and Darting Blow (41 Spd on initiation). You need to kill that Green Mage quickly as any damage inflicted on her will be healed immediately by the Green Axe Flier (who only appears in Infernal) who will use Reciprocal Aid. Had to bust out Quickened Pulse to make sure Titania was able to successfully bait and kill her in one round with Green Tome Breaker + Iceberg due to the Mage standing on a defense tile.

Also be careful of the Blue Cavalier unit as he has Pass so keep that in mind while trying to bait him as he might end up passing your unit into attacking another.

You could try using Nino with Green Tomebreaker with the appropriate buffs. Though unless yours is +Spd or merged to at least +1, you might need to slap Speed +3/Fury 3 in order to cancel the Mage's Wind sweep (this is assuming she's buffed with Hone Spd). You can also do it with Tharja or another Red Mage, but they're reliant on having a +Spd nature due to having a lower base Spd than Nino.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on July 06, 2017, 12:42:30 pm


Used Reinhardt, Sanaki, Hector and Olivia.

1. Sanaki has Q. riposte to kill green mage. She also uses her "bulk" to meat shield the axe pegasus lol.
2. Hector is there just to kill the blue mage cavalier (from the left side)
3. Reinhardt has Lancebreaker because the lance cavalier can take 4 hits from +atk, death blow, hone atk Reinhardt (why) . Then he mops up Alm and Celica.
4. level 26 Olivia lol

That's an interesting take. I wouldn't mind having her for that use if mine wasn't -HP. Plus, Bride Lyn has been a blessing.

She's expensive to make sets for but it's worth it. You could use life and death 3, keep desperation and if you have Odins give her his tome and moonbow.

Ugh... what's shitty is I used up all my Odins for Moonbow already lol. But yeah, I heard she's a beast post SI with Odin's tome. Life and Death has also been evading me lately, but I do have Fury to work with.
I could always use Reinhardt for the time being, but the hate runs deep.

A silver sword would have been better. He has good hp and def. Good res for a sword. Atk is average and speed is bad but not Chrom/Alfonse bad.

Skills are bad but at least he has some. Atk+3 will push him to 46 atk with Armorslayer but fury can do that with all stats and he has the hp to utilize it.

He seems usable.

If there's one thing I like about Chain Challenge/Squad Assault/Tempest Trials is that it's making me appreciate the movement support skills. Before I was incredibly reliant on using Dancers for additional movement and kills, but after getting accustomed to Flier and Horse Emblem shenanigans I see myself shying away from them more often and exploring more team builds with Draw Back/Reposition.

Speaking of Flier Emblem, anyone have builds they recommend for Minerva? I was thinking of Quick Riposte, but I feel as though she's fast enough as it is to really utilize it. She's +Atk/-HP.

The Legion GHB was still by far the worst, but it was quite annoying with the green mage's windsweep and Celica backing him. It also seems like you have to tank a lot of damage on this GHB to succeed. I wish I could've used Kagero here, but I also love bombing units with Nino (still wish it were Julia instead tho).

Hone ATK banner
Sanaki
Nino
F Corrin

Sanaki can do well until you get Tharja or Celica.
Nino is great but she already is common enough to appear in 3 and 4 star varieties.
F Corrin has a few skills you can take from.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on July 10, 2017, 11:53:56 am
Sanaki is literally Lilina with a legendary tome. Their stats spreads are so similar with Sanaki trading HP and Def for slightly more Spd and Res. Like Lilina and Sophia she's a good candidate for a Raven tome due to her absurd Atk stat (40 if +Atk), but somewhat less effective due to her fragile stature to physical attacks.

Pulling Nino in this banner is a great way to get Gronnblade+ if anything. Can also save you 20k feathers if you planned on promoting her and got lucky on a pull (unless it's -Spd).

The only good thing I see about getting Female Corrin from this banner is if you wanted to give any of your other Dragon units Dark Breath+ and even then it's outclassed by Lightning Breath+. Only one I can see utilizing this properly is Ninian and to a smaller extent, Fae.

Also new Yamada Kotaro challenge maps being released tomorrow (7/11).

Tempest orbs didn't give me axe Tiki (I'm gonna have to 5* a Cherche with Brave Axe+ at this rate) but it did give me Baywatch Frederick.
"Delightful ! I can't wait to run and jump into the sea." ... I'm sorry but I still keep hearing his lines as some savage sass, like "this is so great I want to go into the sea [and drown myself]".

... Hum, do the debuffs stack ? Can Baywatch Fred + my recently 5*'d Kagero pile a -12 DEF/RES on anyone ? Even if not, -6 is still good for a def tank and a res tank. (Especially since Fred also has a Seal atk/spd on top of that)

Post by: Foobs on July 12, 2017, 02:55:50 pm
This game's awkward wording pisses me off.
Quote
Any WTA granted by units skills is negated. If affinity disadvantage exists, weapon triangle affinity granted by foe's skills is reversed.
So the first part says it nullifies TA/Gem Weapons for the user. Easy enough to understand. The second part say that if the units is facing an opponent with TA and color advantage the opponents's bonus is reversed, not nullified, right? or is it talking about the extra 20% from TA/gem weapon alone?

So this means that if a Lucina with CA attacked a Robin with TA...she'd deal 40% extra damage instead of -40%? or would it be a neutral match up?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on July 12, 2017, 03:15:06 pm
If you have triangle adept and this, you don't get an increased disadvantage, just normal.
If the enemy uses triangle adept, it's inverted.
So a Lucina with adept and cancel against a RobiM with adept would not receive increased 20% from her own adept, and she'd deal 20% more from RobiM's reversed triangle. Since RobiM's attack is also lowered I guess he'd deal 20% less too.
I tried looking up comments on the Japanese text quickly and at a glance, everyone is flipping out over Reinhardt using this skill apparently. Against Fobin's Gronnwolf I assume ? Dunno if Japan considers that a solid meta. And also assuming weapons count as skills, but I'm not sure about that.

I'm surprised I've been having better success in arena with Peri using armored blow. I already have spur res Tharja and spur def Hector duo wiping out all the Hectors and Reinhardts of the world, but Peri's res and increased def seem to work better than Camus o_O
I'm also having some fun in Tempest with Breath of Life Kagero and BoL+Renewal+Reposition Boey.

TA Cecilia is a common counter to Reinhardt since she's the only green mage who can match him in range.

CA pretty much fucks over all TA -raven tomes wielders, now that I think of it.

Raven tomes ? Is there such a high demand for anti-colorless ? Or just because of the dual color/colorless advantage ? Dual advantage does cast a very wide net but I haven't really seen a meta like that in demand.

Luckily she will always run desperation. It seems this was worded really poorly. To me it just sounds like it negates gem weapons and TA effects when the CA user is at disadvantage. So the weapon triangle would still be in effect.

Berkut's stats are disappointing to say the least. Was actually holding off promoting Camus in hopes that Berkut might be slightly better. Here's hoping that his weapon is at least decent. Would have preferred if he had a legendary weapon instead of a inheritable one though. Ian Sinclair as his VA is his one saving grace that prevents me from completely forgetting about him though...

Damn, Delthea has the lowest Def of any unit in the game. You can literally sneeze in her direction and she'll implode.

The datamine was wrong. Sonya isn't as fast, Mathilda isn't as strong and Delthea has the same def as Lucius (so still the worst). All around worse distributions.

But seriously though focus gatcha my ass. I've been playing countless gatcha games over the years but this game has the most bollocks rates I've encountered. At least in F/GO you are almost guaranteed to get the focus servant when you do get a 5* and that game has less than 1% rates.

Was trying to go for Sonya after farming more orbs from Chain Challenge, and was greeted by Camilla. Was kind of bummed until I decided to pull from this red orb from the same summoning session and got Saber. He's -Spd, but his speed wasn't that good to begin with for a Sword unit. I'll either keep him for collection purposes or probably feed him to my +Atk Caeda for Slayer Sword+.

Glacies or Moonbow ? If you use Moonbow, cooldown decrease would be a waste since you're probably already doubling most of everyone with Darting Blow on attack, and on defense you have a bit less chance of doubling. With Glacies it's a bit more interesting.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on July 14, 2017, 03:33:59 am
I'm most likely going with the Iceberg/Glacies route. Plan to give her Fury 3 with Desperation 3. With Hone Flier buffs, she'll reach 52 Atk and 46 Spd, with her Res shooting all the way up to 43 with Fortify buffs.

It is power creep. The Slaying Edge and Slaying Bow are literally just Killer weapons with 2 more Mt. There's no reason to use the Killer Edge and Killer Bow now unless you don't have a Leon or Saber to inherit from (not like anyone really uses the latter).

What kind of half assed starting position is THAT?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on July 17, 2017, 11:56:56 am
Ike or Xander in Alm's position with a support res next to him, moving up, counter-killing the green mage, the archer, and the red mage. Red mage or Kagero with def support works too maybe.
Probably a green axe cavalry (Titania) in Delthia's position, running to the defense tile, to counter kill Berkut. Or Hector who can also counter the archer.
And then only the axe is left. I doubt this is the infernal map though.

... I mean, unless they all have 50 def and 70 hp as usual, obviously.

Edit -Berkut's weapon has res+4 when attacked and I guess water boost which increases his res ? That and 31 def and 25 base res, is he a super tank ? Hector definitely needed.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on July 17, 2017, 12:51:09 pm
Bow Knight has Firesweep so no counter killing :(

Water boost gives him +6 res when he has more hp than his opponent (lol 60) so he'll have 35 res. If he had Kriemhild instead of some random lance he would have 31 res and distant counter.

Alright, Hard Mode Berkut beaten with following team:
Alm -> 5* Lvl40 Xander with HP+3 seal
Faye -> 5* Lvl40 Cecilia with Breath of Life seal and special ability to raise Xander's RES up to additional 6 thanks to him being a Cavalry unit
Delthia -> 5* Lvl40 Hector with Vantage 2
Mathilda -> 5* Lvl40 Takumi sitting there, doing absolutely nothing
Doesn't really work in Lunatic Mode, though, because Xander can barely tank the combination of Red Tome Cavalry and Green Tome Infantry (he has only 4 HP left), only to then get wrecked by the stray axe cavalry's critical, despite that enemy unit's regular damage output against Xander being 0. How even?

Completed Infernal with Titania, Mathilda, Azura, and Ninian. Had Azura start at the top, Ninian on the right, and Titania and Mathilda on the bottom. Had Ninian move up into the corner with Azura and camp there. Had Mathilda buff Titania to bait and kill the Blue Cavalry.

Next turn I had Mathilda go and kill Berkut with her Ridersbane as well as getting her HP down to where the Dancer's WoM would activate. Had Azura and Ninian teleport to Mathilda and danced her twice to kill the Bow and Red Mage Cavaliers. Final turns had Titania baiting and weakening the Green Mage with the Green Cavalier getting taken out with Mathilda via Iceberg, Quickpulse was essential here or I wouldn't have been able to kill the Green Cavalier with one shot. Mathilda then proceeded take out the Green Mage.

Infernal is a pain in the ass. At least during Legion's GHB your units could regroup and heal. This time around your team is so poorly positioned you can't step on more than 4 tiles without being attacked on three different fronts. I think I'm gonna pass on this one since the prize is nothing to write home about.

(Oh cool, I got promoted to tier 20)
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: TrinitroRoy on July 18, 2017, 03:48:28 pm
Good thing you warned me, because I just have beaten Lunatic Mode.
Again, same team, but Xander now got Fury 2 (completely forgot I gave him that some time ago).
So yeah, at least I have a 4* Berkut now, so Infernal is extremely low priority for me right now.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on July 18, 2017, 04:17:20 pm
Lunatic done
4* Boey with spur def at the top, jumping to the defense tile (stat wise, I think 4* Gordin should work too ? With a spur def too for safety)
5* Lukas with Ignis
5* Camus
4* Cecilia with rally res and Hone cavalry

Lukas stuck to Boey baits the archer and Berk, then Berk dies on the next turn to both Lukas and Boey
Camus doesn't bait the mages (cuz he and Xander just die), he waits on turn 2 to kill the red mage that came down despite the defense tile, Cecilia covers him with Rally res
Green mage and axe somehow kill themselves on Camus and Lukas respectively (green mage survives when he's on a defense tile if he comes down on turn 1 but in the forest he dies)
Archer is last and fails to take out Lukas or Boey before dying with an Ignis to the face.

Boey has been an MVP in tempest and this, he might earn himself a 5th star someday.

Infernal with 5* Sharena, 4* Ursula - Olivia - Legion with no skill inheritance but with the common seals everyone has.

Just did it. There's also a take with 4* Palla 3* Olivia 4* Narcian 4* Nino but who levels up Palla and Narcian. It does have a funny Escape Route abuse (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jsf_kJmWELo) though.
Still waiting on Mkv's take on it.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention I finally 5*'d Sharena not long ago, gave her Fensalir and got friendzoned hard at lv40 out of the blue.

Lancebreaker Reinhardt, Ninian, Azura and Masked Marth with red tomebreaker.

Normally Marth can double the red cav, but attacking the bow cav messes up her speed.

EDIT

I 5 starred Berkut because I like him a lot. With the two defensive horse buffs and water boost he can have 41 def and 44 res which is insane. I stuck quick riposte on him and will use Summer Robin to get him like a bazillion more SP

After very rarely seeing a green summon stone through the summer banner and the Sonya banner, I finally rolled Sonya. She's -atk+res, need to find an Iceberg, with Mirror Strike, the res seal, and dark exca, that's 42 flat added damage.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on July 19, 2017, 12:09:20 am
even with -atk her damage output is still huge, and +res means res ploy will trigger for almost every unit in the game (see http://feheroes.gamepedia.com/Stats_Table) . and while you don't have iceberg you still have moonbow, which becomes way more useful with her weapon
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on July 19, 2017, 12:32:13 am
Oh, res ploy. So calculation time, if no one can face her with more than 29 res after ploy (beside 4 guys no one uses), decreased by 30% is 21 res at best, against 48 on attack (with mirror strike) plus dark exca's 10 is 37, which is on 2 cooldown instead of 4... Okay, good enough ! I'm still keeping Iceberg in mind in case bullshit inflated stats require me to slam a 42 + around 18 (before triangle advantage) = 60 damage.

Erm, I think people have a different set of cavalry units for Horse Emblem...

Olwen is actually the best user of a Bladetome in the game. With a +Spd nature and a Hone Cav buff, she can reach 43 Spd (48 with Life and Death 3, or 49 with Darting Blow 3 on initiation). She'll practically double everything in the game and nuke everything with her Bladetome that doesn't have Triangle Adept equipped. Only reasons that Cecilia is the more popular choice as the Bladetome mage in a Horse Emblem team right now are that she's more widely available and that blue units are a dominant force in the Arena meta right now.

Eldigan is a good Red Horse unit on par with Xander stat wise. Giving him both Distant Counter and Quick Riposte pairs well with his Legendary weapon making specials like Ignis activate much more frequently. Only real downsides are his Spd, Res, and that he's vying for a spot against the more widely available Xander who already has Distant Counter.

Titania makes a nice addition any to Horse team as she can act as a hard counter to the popular Blue Mages out there like Linde, Delthea, and Reinhardt with Emerald Axe and her high Res. Giving her Distant Counter and Green Tomebreaker basically makes her an effective anti-mage, but really needs the support of buffs due to her really low base Atk.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on July 20, 2017, 11:35:19 am
I only propose Distant Counter as it was a means to compare them to Xander and Cecilia who are basically the ones Eldigan and Titania are fighting against for positions on a Horse Emblem team. It is by no means a way to make them viable.

Tried summoning again and finally got Delthea and Sonya. Delthea is +Spd/-Atk, but I was going to end up making her into a buffer with her crazy support skills so her having a +Spd boon is really helpful as her Atk is high enough as it is.

Sonya on the other hand is -Spd which hampers quite a bit, and the funny thing is that I pulled 2 Sonyas and they were both -Spd. I was really only going for Delthea and getting Sonya anyways is just a bonus. Despite the sub-optimal IVs, I'm quite happy with the results. I'll just have to work around their shortcomings.

Meh... The Lloyd GHB was probably the least challenging of them all. IS could do better.

Speaking of which. A bit of a delayed post since I haven't played much this week. But I also finished the Berkut GBH last minute.

Not an overly difficult map, just shitty starting placements... again.

Hey guys, guess what just happened:

Lucky! You even got her as a 5*

I had to put in time and upgrade mine from a 3*. But I'll tell you, +SPD,-RES Nino is a fuckin pleasure. I was skeptical of her glassiness but that got put to bed immediately, especially after inheriting Fury. Haven't regretted upgrading her since. I still want Julia but I ain't complaining. Nino is a wicked unit.

Lloyd GHB is out with new quests and Infernal mode. Easiest Infernal mode yet, at least for me. Xander tanked and killed the Bow Cavalier, Green Axe Fighter, and Green Axe Flier. Titania took out the Blue Lance Cavalier and the Blue Mage, and Reinhardt took out Lloyd.

Post by: Suprizle on July 25, 2017, 09:42:10 am
Very easy.

It took me a few tries on Infernal and only because I forgot to reposition my units before making the first move. Nino bombed the blues, and Ryoma destroyed the rest. As mentioned... easiest GHB map.

Post by: Byakko on July 25, 2017, 09:07:02 pm
Divide and conquer. Bait the blues and the archer to the bottom right with a flier over the river until they're the last ones, make sure your hard hitter picks off the ones at the top one by one. When they gang up on you, they have all sorts of advantage and one of them has Lunge to make sure his buddies keep rolling on you. I went with my 5* Death Blow Brave+ Cherche with Reposition, an archer and a dancer. The two axes were a pain to bait and manipulate with the right timing though, they broke my positions a few times.
All my Goaded/Honed Xanders and Hectors and default tanks just died under a steamroller when they tried to Vantage the whole map.

yeah. it's a bigger risk when your unit isn't particularly amazing, though. if your unit isn't that great and you're saddled with two bad units from your friend/a random user, you'll be shit out of luck and you're going to miss out on that bonus hour. i never used any of the healers during the last gauntlet. i'm not even sure if i'll use tiki to be honest

I bought the $40 pack of orbs expecting that Leo would be a hassle to get since he was the last summer unit I wanted to complete the collection. Ended up getting him, another Corrin, and Raven within the first few sessions.

Then proceeded to try the Life and Death banner with my remaining orbs to see if I can get a unit so I can feed them to Olwen. Pulled a Hana on the first session and felt it was a bit anti-climactic, but I'm not complaining. Going to save these for Hero Fest next week.

Also, Gaius better not screw this up and push Leo into bonus at the last literal hour. It's way too close. I want the Leo gauntlet memes to continue

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on August 07, 2017, 10:13:50 am
For Infernal I used Bride Cordelia, Reinhardt, Azura, and Olivia.

Turn 1: Cordelia breaks the wall right in front of her and end the turn.
Turn 2: All units move up one space making sure Azura and Olivia buff Cordelia with Hone Atk and Res. Reinhardt gets buffed with Hone Atk.
Turn 3: Cordelia moves up and takes out the Blue Pegasus Knight. Olivia dances Cordelia to have her take out Lilina. End the turn without anymore actions. Cecilia attacks Cordelia, but survives.
Turn 4: Cordelia takes out Cecilia. Reinhardt uses Wings of Mercy to take out the Brave Bow user. Olivia dances Reinhardt and takes out the Lance Cavalier.
Turn 5: Reinhardt takes out Red Mage.

The main problem with this map is that everyone is a threat. You simply can't bait in this map effectively as there will be a counter waiting for you at every corner. You need to take the initiative.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on August 07, 2017, 10:14:19 am
MAGIC IS EVERYTHING!

Ahem.

I used Reinhardt, Sanaki and two dancers. Sanaki invalidates Cecilia while Reinhardt kills everything else as usual. On Infernal I put hp+3 and quick riposte on Sanaki so she can kill the new red mage.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on August 07, 2017, 10:18:59 am
Lunatic, Sonya Olivia Klein Leo (who didn't do a thing)
sonya with Olivia goes and kill the blue horse, next turn Klein with Olivia shoots Lilina then the flier and Sonya kills the archer, and Cecilia can't do shit (if I don't let her use her special by not hitting her until the end)
On Infernal I put hp+3 and quick riposte on Sanaki so she can kill the new red mage.
That red mage is next to a blue cavalry with 33 res, how do you get him ?

After taking a break from the Lunatic run from the last GHB(I didn't do it), it's time to get back into it.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on August 07, 2017, 02:28:36 pm
Oof, did Infernal. Lots of reposition, draw back and dancing.
Nino Olivia Klein Summer Robin (with extra threaten spd)
Klein kills the flier, Nino draws him back and a second time thanks to Olivia
The cavalry comes in, Klein kills him, then everyone goes as far down as possible with dancing and reposition
SRobin and Klein get hit a bit, but then S.Robin can Moonbow Cecilia off and Klein kills Lilina, then everyone gets out of range from the remaining archer and red mage (the mage does hit Olivia)
And then you just finish them off as they try to sqeeze through the corridor.

I think S.Robin's threaten spd played a role because my Olivia got doubled and killed by the red mage in a previous attempt but survived this attempt. Red mage must have been in range of threaten, I don't think I had any other debuff. Ninian might do better against the red mage but Cecilia would probably kill her. A res buff for Olivia with the reposition can probably work too.

Just checked, the red mage has swift sparrow so he does double a neutral spd Olivia and kills her. Threaten spd it is (or any spd boost or seal I guess).

In a nutshell, get the flier first, haul ass south, bait the cavalry and red mage separately, and tank all the magic.

These reversed rate banners are the best. Even if you don't get the Focus units you have a good chance of getting the units that only come in 4 star. I managed to get Xander and Corrin from the Summer banner so I'm just going to summon on the new banners.

Now an important question. Because of these banners I now have three Azuras. -atk +spd, -hp +res and -spd +def.
Should I merge them? Is there a unit that benefits from Sapphire Lance+?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on August 10, 2017, 06:41:08 pm
Normally, I would be against merged units but I would merge Azura with your best one because I can't think of anyone that would get Sapphire and benefit from it. She's pretty good support alone, and her weapon just helps her take on stubborn red units... I wonder does Cordelia get Sapphire lance?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on August 11, 2017, 05:47:59 am
How is Hero Fest treating everyone? I finally pulled Genny after eluding me so much and got multiples of Julia/Ike/Ninian for optimal IVs/skill fodder and some off banner 5*s.

Was also able to finally +10 my very first character in Ninian due to her breaking my pity% so many times before on various banners that I decided to take advantage of the high base focus rate of Hero Fest and max her out.

Now an important question. Because of these banners I now have three Azuras. -atk +spd, -hp +res and -spd +def.
Should I merge them? Is there a unit that benefits from Sapphire Lance+?

If you just plan to keep her as support, then +Spd/-Atk should be just fine. Even with the bane in Atk, her Sapphire Lance still makes up for it when killing Reds especially when you can double them thanks to the boon in Spd.

In terms of inheriting Sapphire Lance, there aren't a lot who can benefit from it, but Mathilda, Peri, and Claire come to mind due to their high Res stat. It'll make up for their rather low base Atk in attacking Red units and will be able to bait/tank Red Mages effectively.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on August 11, 2017, 06:12:54 am
I blew my remaining orbs on the TT banner because I need more mages (I already have Julia). Was sniping green and blue orbs, got +RES/-DEF Sonya. Good shit.

Speaking of TT, it'll start in just a few hours. I'm moderatly hyped this time, even though the main reward is shit again. At the very least grinding shouldn't be as painful this time.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

I'm not looking forward to it to be honest. It's only been 3 weeks since the last Tempest and I'm still worn out by it, which sucks since I'm probably still going to try and get top 1k again for the 10k feathers...
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on August 11, 2017, 07:32:46 am
I'm just gonna get Clive and the seals. I don't even like Clive that much.

Thanks for the info Amber. The first Azura I got was the -spd one so she is skilled....slightly. I'll fuse her into the +spd one.

I haven't gotten any of the focus units from the hero fest banner yet. I did get the two Azuras, Alm and Catria. I want to get another Ninian because mine is -spd +res and having a Genny would be nice because she's super cute. Julia continues to forsake me and while I like Ike, he's not a priority.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on August 11, 2017, 10:03:12 am
Atk ploy as a seal is really sweet, but hardy bearing is so weird. What's the point, you can only overcome Vantage if you already have 100% hp, otherwise you only get the disadvantage.

I'm not rolling in these banners. Not enough orbs to get anything more than some random 3*s and as always, I'm sure I'm not gonna get any green whatsoever.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on August 11, 2017, 10:40:42 am
Hardy Bearing exists to prevent checkmates from vantage units with distant counter.

EDIT

Let me give an example. Let's say you attack Ike with a physical unit and he is low on health. A mage with this seal can now attack Ike safely without eating Vantage Luna
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on August 11, 2017, 11:22:31 am
Oh, to kill a Hector with a mage or a Takumi with a dragon, then ? I see, and it also saves you the need to have your own Vantage and wait for Hector to hit your own Hector. Okay then. Still risky if it's only at 100% hp, you need a healer. Maybe it works well for falchion guys against Hector then ?

Damn, this tempest is incredibly generous. So many feathers, even easier to get higher scores... wow, never mind about the score, apparently that was limited somehow. Back to the same rate as last time.

Also, was able to pull a 5* Roy yesterday (the very last day of the BHB banner), and he even has the best IVs.

Took the time to finish my skill composition and wrap the Legion Infernal level. Also, I've seen a video of it done with free units, like Stahl and Felicia, pretty rough and tight.
Not really interested in the new banner. i got a 4* Mae, I'm considering taking her to 5*, I don't feel like I need another strong blue mage but arena assault is kicking my ass and forcing me to diversify my units of all colors. Which is nice, but only if you have the funds to afford it. And I already 5*'d an Odin to give Blarblade+ to Summer Corrin (Blarowl is good enough anyway). Actually I was trying to make Odin a backup blue mage (don't judge me) but he's so incredibly bad I said fuck it.

Bladetome banner is up with Odin, Nino, and Tharja. Get your free summon if you haven't already.

Amelia and Tana look neat. I wonder if Amelia will get villager/trainee bonus stats (we'd be talking about like 171 BST). Innes and Seth look a bit wonky though (an anti-raven tome oriented archer?okay...).

Amelia has the highest BST in the game right now with a whopping 173, however there have been reports that her BST isn't being factored in properly when doing Arena which results in less points than intended.

Tana is basically Cordelia with lower HP, but higher Def and Res. She also has a really good C-Passive that promotes mixed teams with Infantry and Armored units as they can teleport next to her if they're within range.

Seth is basically a slightly better Stahl, and nothing else noteworthy...

Innes is a really good Archer. I was lucky enough to pull a +Spd/-Def yesterday and with Fury 3, he's able to reach 50 Atk and 40 Spd. With Nidhogg, it can reach up to 56 Atk/46 Spd with all 3 allies positioned properly next to him.

Nino
... 4*.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on August 18, 2017, 11:07:01 am
Bladetome banner is definitely a good banner to pull from.
Tharja and Nino are both considered one of the best mages of their respective colors once the right skills have been passed down.

Tharja is the rarer of the three as both Nino and Odin cam be obtained in 3* variants while Thatrja is obtained from 4*.

Because Nino appears from 3*, there's already a good chance you've pulled one by now if you've played for a while and pulled from plenty of greens, so there may not be much incentive to pull her(And last week's banner had Julia the only other one that competes for Best Green Mage). That said, Nino's blade tome can still be passed to Cecilia for your Horse emblem team.

Odin is terrible, but he's still worth pulling for 2 reasons. He has Moonbow, a special skill that you will want to pass down to many units over many builds and he's the only one with Red Tomebreaker.

I would prioritize for Tharja since she's rarer.

Sonya trounces them both.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on August 18, 2017, 12:16:48 pm
Nino is purely offensive and needs support to truly shine as her mediocre defenses and HP pool make her ill suited to tank any sort of hit, even from mages.

Julia is on the other end of the spectrum and more suited for a defensive style of play as she doesn't have the necessary speed to double a lot of enemies, but has the Res to tank even the fastest of mages which is boosted even more thanks to Naga's passive ability.

Sonya is in the middle ground between Nino and Julia. She doesn't need much support from other units as she has reliable burst damage thanks to Dark Excalibur and she has good enough Res to tank most mages. The only thing that's keeping her from overshadowing Nino are her offensive stats of 33/31 compared to Nino's 33/36 and with a current meta that revolves around one shotting enemies, it's no surprise Nino comes out on top.

All of them have their uses and it's basically up to preference on who you want to run with. Depending on the situation, I often find myself using all 3 of them from time to time in most end game content.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on August 18, 2017, 12:20:05 pm
Res ploy effectively adds to her base damage and mirror strike brings her closer to Nino's (base) speed. She won't double people as easily as swift strike Nino but the rest makes up for it in direct damage, she'll only lose out if you can really boost Nino's blade tome. She has great res which also makes her safe from a lot of mages, even some red ones, especially if she attacks first (with res ploy effect).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on August 18, 2017, 04:40:15 pm
Mirror Strike increases Atk and Res, not Spd. Also Res Ploy means nothing if you can't kill them outright, hence why Spd is the deciding factor here. Yes, with skills that buff her Spd and a Spd boon will essentially make her able to kill a lot more enemies outright, Nino will be able to do the same and more due to having 5 more base Spd than Sonya.

I'd forgotten about the new paralogue (rushed through lunatic for the orbs) and finished the normal difficulty today. Something about the story (finally) piqued my interest: Loki mentions Nagflar. It could be a completely new weapon called Nagflar or even the actual Nagflar of lore, but he was probably referring to this Naglfar (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Naglfar). That was Lyon's personal tome in the Sacred Stones. Lyon is possesed by Formortiis the Demon King (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Fomortiis), and Loki mentions his "King", so...
Innes is a really good Archer. I was lucky enough to pull a +Spd/-Def yesterday and with Fury 3, he's able to reach 50 Atk and 40 Spd. With Nidhogg, it can reach up to 56 Atk/46 Spd with all 3 allies positioned properly next to him.
I pulled one myself (+atk/-hp) on the first day of the SS banner. He's so much better than I expected, he got the anti-mage part right without sacrificing much power or speed. I'm definitely giving him fury3 as soon as I get another Hinata for a more offensive build.

You should run a Firesweep Lance build with her as she'll basically double everything. Or at least replace Hit and Run with Desperation, that way the recoil of Fury will be used to your advantage just in case she won't be able to trade another hit since Vidofnir only works on enemy phase, not to mention her mediocre HP to boot.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on August 19, 2017, 05:12:12 pm
yeah i thought hit and run would be useful because in the scenario she can't finish off an enemy, there would be a gap for another unit to get in (through guidance) and finish the job, but that scenario has barely happened because she murders everything and desperation would've been more useful instead

Valter GHB is out.

Was able to beat all difficulties and Infernal was frustrating as the enemies are aggressive and will start moving immediately. The reinforcements will swarm you incredibly quick if you don't thin their numbers fast enough in between turns. Enemies are pretty generic and standard fair of Infernal with bloated stats, with the only noteworthy unit to watch out for is a Red Cavalier who also has Panic Ploy.

I used Ninian, Olivia, Reinhardt, and Bride Cordelia. Ironic enough I had to teach Reinhardt Lancebreaker 3 to one round all of the lance units despite it being one of his best B-Slot skills. Guess it was a good time than any to final teach him that skill.

Post by: Koop on August 28, 2017, 06:12:42 am
They all look great. For the freebie I'll go for Lyn since colourless hell is real. I hope she has neutral ivs. Roy may be tough to get because of how many red 5 stars there are. Rolling for Lucy won't be bad because most blue units that come in 5 star are good and for Ike you might get Hawkeye or Raven so good fodder.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on August 28, 2017, 06:27:11 am
The only question is if the free summons will be of neutral IV or not.

From the looks of it, Lyn already has an offensive spread of 33/35 which is almost similar to Bridal Cordelia's (35/35), with that lower Atk being more than compensated with horse buffs. If that's the case I might use my free summon on someone else and dive into colorless hell for a +Atk Lyn for Brave Bow/Death Blow/horse buff shenanigans.

Roy essentially has a 19mt legendary weapon with built in Heavy Blade 3. The devs were even smart enough to give him Galeforce.

Lucina looks like she'll be an incredibly good buffer/support unit with her passives and weapons, especially if paired with someone like Delthea.

Ike can solo Horse and Flier Emblem all by himself lol.

Post by: Darkflare on August 28, 2017, 06:45:32 am
I'm going to go for Ike. I was aiming for him when he was a new unit and Hero Fest 2 and he never showed, so it would be nice to have an Ike for sure. Plus, the only good Axe I have is Minerva and it would be nice to have a second choice.

According to a user on Reddit who translated the Japanese description of the skills, it was stated that Ike's B-skill doesn't mention at all that it makes him effective against flying and horse units. It only ignores any buffs that any flying or horse unit has during combat. While the description isn't technically wrong  as the passive only applies to those units (hence probably the use of the word "effective"), the phrasing the English version used can be easily misunderstood.

Also apparently you can gain orbs while playing that battle simulator on the official website if the description during the video can be believed. Though how hasn't been revealed yet.


I'm going Team Lyn btw

Oh hey, I just noticed Lyn's skills and stats are visible, unlike the others for some reason. She has the almighty atk&spd Swift Sparrow, with 47 atk and 38 spd. Now that's just obscene. I hope the others will be similar - like Ike being a mega tank but sacrificing speed, except his weapon basically nulls and voids anyone trying to double him.

I thought that too but you can see that Black Knight has a special at 1 charge when he is first attacked. Unless Alondite has the same effect as a killer weapon and he has moonbow, it's most likely a more powerful special nearly charged like in other ghbs.

Hah, apparently arena defense was bugged and some players didn't get their defense team matched with anyone, since late May. I'm pretty sure I was in there because I haven't had a successful defense in forever. That or my teams are just bad (but I regularly try new or unique formations, there's no way I didn't break some deathless runs).
900 feathers seems pretty cheap though ? Sounds weird since arena defense gives you up to just that much per week.

Brave Toy is a great attacker but of course he's no Xander. Base Lyn is great for keeping mages at bay and some fighters as well with her blessing skill. Ike....gods damn he's like a infantry tank, send him up against units and he'll give them the business. He may have bad speed but that skill will keep quads from tearing him up.

Apparently the thing about the 900 feathers is a mistranslation and when the same message was translated from the Japanese version, it's stated that the compensation would be 900 feathers per season so you could be getting well over 10k feathers if you were affected.

Roy is a front for keeping units in check, but can get taken out If you're not careful. Ike as well, but he can check others if they have certain defense numbers. Lucina can be like Erika but with a more emphasis on attacking and boosting those around her. They are not be all end all, but will help in the meta in some way.

Once Hector goes down I'll jump on team Camilla for the feathers. She might even pull another upset victory. 

Thanks to the daily maps I rolled Ike after failing to roll him with 80~100 orbs. Picked Lyn from the free summon before that. I'm perfectly satisfied with this banner.

the title of the mini TT is a reference to hector, and at a glance "moment of fate" seems like it'll be themed around fire emblem fates but that's also the title of the stage in which ike fights the black knight in path of radiance

so if it's themed around path of radiance, they have to release some more tellius units before that otherwise the moment of fate banner will be a retread of the original ike/soren/titania/mist banner except one unit would be swapped for sanaki or some shit

Considering there's no GHB scheduled for this month Burger King's map could've been a red herring. It might be a new story chapter/paralogue map instead of a GHB, meaning he'd share the spotlight with other 3/5 units on the next banner.

Horse Emblem consisting of Xander, Reinhart, Titania (Frederick), and Brave Lyn with default skills for her(before you ask, yes they boost each other).
Other team has Minerva with flier shield, Sonya with Desperation, Brave Roy with Galeforce, and Peri.
For Trials, I use Olivia, Xander, a random unit, and one of the bonus heroes if I have them.

Basically, nothing to write home about.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on September 05, 2017, 01:50:26 pm
My Horse Emblem is Xander Reinhardt Camus and Fred with Brave Axe+ and Ignis because I gave up on Titania despite being a mage counter with decent def on attack. I'm finishing Xander with Fury and Ignis anytime soon, I normally hate Fury but it really fits him like a glove.

I actually rolled a second Brave Ike (but he's -def+res flaming garbage so I'm not salty for not picking free Lyn) so I'm considering passing a Steady Breath to my Ignis!Lukas with a spare Deft Harpoon+ to fucking murder anything on defense for a mega wall team.

For Tempest I tend to build a team around the bonus unit and whoever needs SP. At this point I have enough in all colors to vary my teams in Tempest as needed. The likes of Vantage Sonya or Hector tend to come up often depending on the threat, physical or magical.
Oh, healbot Chrom with Renewal and Reciprocal Aid is a frequent pick too.

Arena offense is usually just Reinhardt Tharja Hector and bonus unit, Tharja and Hector spur each other's def/res to kill any enemy Reinhardt / Hector, and my Reinhardt takes care of the rest. I'm not too sure how well I do against Brave Lyn yet, people who use her can have very good team buffs and if she has Reposition then the AI gets me dead most of the time.

Arena defense I don't know. I tend to switch my comps around, either covering all colors or going for a single color team, but it doesn't seem to work.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on September 05, 2017, 04:10:22 pm
I usually get a team just to have Xander or Camus and built it around them. When making teams, you want to think about covering everyone's weakness and never have more than two of the same color (unless they are really good units).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on September 05, 2017, 05:27:10 pm
Te Horse Emblem team I use to bruteforce pve is Cecilia/Camus/Xander/Priscilla. I'm building a second team around Ursula/Frederick/Luke/Lyn. Arena defense team is Ryoma/Hector/Nowi/bonus unit. Pretty cheap I know. Arena offense changes entirely depending on the bonus unit.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on September 07, 2017, 10:57:52 am
I tried the escape route trick on Sonya, but her res is far too high so I did it with Nino. Team was Sanaki, Nino, Gordin and Azura. Sanaki and Gordin both have sword breaker but Gordin uses it so he can tank the red cavalier.

Nino baits green cav and weakens him
Sanaki kills green cav and Nino warps and drags Sanaki out of FURY EPHRAIM range
Gordin kills blue mage and Azura sings letting him kill the ninja
Red cav attacks Gordin but can't double because of swordbreaker
Sanaki kills Eirika out right with Swordbreaker
Nino kills Ephraim
Azura sings to Sanaki and she attacks the red cav and Gordin finishes him off.

Then I used my free orbs and got Brave Ike!  :muttrox:

i did it with a fully horse buffed brave lyn (by xander/priscilla) and a dancer (azura). brave lyn had quickened pulse and moonbow. i sent brave lyn up to bait and kill both mages. ephraim will come down and block her escape so i gave her escape route. the rest is easy. priscilla and azura can probably be replaced by similar units as long as the priscilla has the skill that increases defenses by 6
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on September 07, 2017, 04:30:46 pm
Went with horse emblem as well: Xander (bonefire, fury 2, reposition, fortify cavalry), Priscilla (hone cavalry), Cecilia (gronnblade, reposition,, goad cavalry) and Ursula (blarblade+, drawback).

Cecilia can oneshot the blue mage with both buffs. Xander repositions her and Ursula further drags her out of danger. Xander kills the ninja and badly injures the green cavalry mage on the enemy phase (I think he could finish both if he had ignis instead of bonefire). Ursula can one round the sword cavalry on the next turn while Cecilia finishes the cavalry mage. After this the Renais siblings are easy prey as each takes a different route.

I used Brave Lucina, 5*Klein, 4*Olivia, and 4*Barst (bait for Eirika lol). Took two tries because Klein left Ephraim with 1 HP the first time, so I had to equip him with the +1 ATK seal for the second time. Funny how 1 stat point can make a big difference.

Nephenee: Great base Spd and Def.

Oscar: With all of the flak he's been getting for essentially blocking those who want Nephenee, he has the highest offensive spread of any cavalry lance unit so far. Even better than Camus/Roderick.

Black Knight: aka Amelia.

Wrath is a really good skill. As long as you keep Nephenee under the threshold, you'll always get the reduced cool down at the start of every turn along with the Wo Dao effect whenever you proc your Special. Though you might want to change Moonbow for something like Bonfire so you won't waste Wrath's effect half of the time.

Elincia is lol.

And now, first feather problem : too many feathers piling up, no one to 5* except maybe some Lilina, because all that's left is the original batch of units who are worthless now, no new 3/4* to promote. If only they bothered adding 4* versions of the newer better units. Still searching for a Celica or a Katarina and not just Boey or Roderick.
Wasn't there a datamine about who's the next GHB ? Who's that and is he expected to be worth 5*ing ?

Post by: Foobs on September 16, 2017, 08:58:22 pm
I've had 60,000 to 100,000 feathers for weeks for the same reason.

According to the leak, the next GHB is Arvis and he comes out on october along new FE4 units. He's a red mage with a unique tome, and there's a small chance he'll be the first armored mage, but he's more likely to be another infantry unit.

Post by: Byakko on September 16, 2017, 09:25:23 pm

Hah, that would be fun. It's always nice to see a unit challenge the meta - if he has decent res and the armor to mitigate physical damage, I just hope he won't be too strong to OHKO everyone, but the defensive meta has been picking up lately with BIke's A skill (and I love that), so a unique unit like that would be big, and with what Reddit says about the Black Knight, maybe we'll finally have an Armor Emblem worth something now that the Flier Emblem is also picking up (my Brave+ Ignis Death Blow Cherche needs buddies).
Speaking of game-changing units and flier emblem, is there any chance we'll ever see a flying dancer ? There's no one like that in any FE game, I assume ?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on September 16, 2017, 11:17:20 pm
Actually, there are flying dancers (well, more like singers) in FE. A race of them, even!

http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Heron

...but I don't see how they'd fit into the game, since both in-game and canon wise they're 100% incapable of combat. Laguz as a whole are on an awkward spot since they don't use conventional weapons.

Out of the 3 Elincia I pulled, the best one I got was +Spd/-Def so I went with the quad route with LnD and Desperation. With a Hone Flier buff she reaches 57 Atk and 49 Spd (my Elincia is +2 merged).

I'm proceeding to make a second Flier Emblem team since I pulled a spare Hinoka a while ago and currently training an Est to have her inherit Hinoka's Brave Lance+ and Hone Fliers.

... It's not like you're ever getting doubled with or without the buff on offense or on defense...
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on September 17, 2017, 08:54:52 pm
It's not really about preventing doubles as Elincia has poor defenses already (even without LnD). It's making sure she can quad all the time, as there are still a handful of units who can still survive the initial two hits of Amiti even with her Atk and Spd (especially in higher ranked Arena and Tempest Trials). Also I plan to use her outside of Flier Emblem so it's reassuring to know that I can make use of her quad potential without the necessity of buffs.

Merging is never very interesting unless you have at least 5~6 copies to merge.
Heavy Blade can work on someone with high ATK but not too good SPD and a special with high CD, if you don't have a spare Death Blow 3. People like Brave Roy, Chrom (who can be a faster healbot with his own Aether), Ryoma... Aether and Luna are great too.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on September 19, 2017, 08:43:16 pm
Brave Roy already has built in Heavy Blade in his Durandal. You want someone with good Atk and Spd to abuse Heavy Blade's effect as much as possible. Cordelia is a perfect example of a great Heavy Blade user with her high Atk and Spd who can use it to proc Galeforce frequently. I have 2 spare Ikes and I plan on feeding one of them to Black Knight to make Black Luna basically into Black Moonbow.

Also can this Sagemaster guy stop making videos about everything that crosses his mind...?

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on September 19, 2017, 11:22:06 pm
His videos are so long winded, I can never watch them from start to finish.



With quickened pulse and steady breath, Black Knight will have instant insta kill. :(

Also the BK in the hard difficulty has the same attack as the playable one will so you can see if Black Luna will kill your units or not. I'm pretty sure that he can kill most of the units that hover around 28-32 def in a single hit.

I think he's also one of the idiots responsible for that whole "Sigurd/Deidre datamine" a while back.

I'm seriously considering feeding my only Brave Ike to him instead. Since Burger King already has Steady Stance 1 and 2, I can easily transfer the Quick Riposte 3 I gave to Brave Ike to him as well if I feed him a 3* Subaki for QR1.

Yet another chance to get Ike... and very few orbs. That Brave Banner murdered my currency.

On the plus side, I finally got my Russian(?) Waifu, Athena. Got her twice which brings me to my question. I'm going to sacrifice one of them to give my Olivia Wo Dao and Moonbow. One has neutral stats, the other is +spd,-hp. Kinda leaning towards the +spd unit, but I hear she's quite squishy. So should I be safe and take the neutral route or compensate for her -hp bane?

To be honest, I think you're better off if you stuck with Death Blow since with those IVs you basically got +Atk Tana with the same Spd if she were to equip a Brave Lance, but with more Attack due to Amiti.

i'll try out l&d3 some more and maybe switch it back, but her low speed was bothering me too much. she's meant to kill units without taking any damage and then get dragged back to safety, but in case she ended up exposed to some other unit she got doubled and died fairly often.

Anyone have or use Seliph? got a bunch of him going for Elincia and was planning to fuse them since i need a good red infantry unit. Planning to set him up with Tyrfing, Reciprocal Aid, Defiant Def, Brash Assault and Threaten Attack couldn't decide if Bonfire or Ignis worked better on him and have no clue what seal to use on him. My Seliph's are Neutral, +Atk -Spd, +Spd -HP and 2 +Spd -Atk figured i should fuse them into the Neutral, +Spd -HP or the +Atk - Spd.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on September 22, 2017, 05:38:33 am
Seliph is pretty bad overall. Defiant def + brash assault is a really bad gimmick, I wouldn't use it on a general purpose unit, just on an AA bencher in the rare case I run into an axe-heavy team.

You could use the -spd/+atk one as a base for a brave sword user (assuming you don't have a Chrom with the same IVs for that)

The biggest threat in this TT isn't the Black Knight, it's that dumb map from the final stage of Chapter 11 where it's not trying to kill your team, but your score.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on September 23, 2017, 08:40:15 pm
Yeah, I'm getting really tired of this bullshit strategy that the AI has on maps setups where there's always two enemies (sometimes three) with diametrically opposed affinities next to each other where if you bring someone to kill one, the other will definitely kill you. And it's the first move you have to make, or sneaking around them takes forever. The horse slaying weapons made it even worse because the first unit is just within reach of a Reinhardt or Lyn but then the one just behind him is a blue horse slayer.

edit - yeah, doing a few more runs, I'm pretty sure there's always a horseslaying Mathilda and a hammertime Fred in two or three maps to kill all the Reinhardts and Hectors you try to cruise through the whole thing with. I'm sure there's some more hard counters to various things that I haven't noticed.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on September 23, 2017, 11:01:05 pm
Indeed.
What I've been getting is horrible rally/reposition combos where the enemies will go to the top corner of the map.

My Elincia is +res so I can bait healers and green mages to attack instead of stall.

Also fury/fortress units are disgusting. Faye is an unbelievable cockroach as the stages progress.  :furious3:

I've been using Elincia, Genny, Brave Lucina, and Innes. Thanks to Hone Spd, Hone Atk, Gierskogul, and Drive Spd, Elincia has been running 62 Atk and 57 Spd. She basically quads everything to death, even Black Knight with no problems.

Also goddamn, Innes is like the best non-mage mage-killer due to Nidhogg as you can just position your team around him as he baits and annihilates any non Raven Mage with ease. I don't see why a lot of people have been keen on replacing Nidhogg with Brave Bow.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on September 28, 2017, 09:42:31 pm
Having a green dancer regardless of it being Inigo or Azura is still really helpful as it frees up your Red and Blue slots. I would say Olivia would be another great dancer if she wasn't colorless. While she does free up the rest of the colors in your team, if she has the same BST as every other dancer she'll be purely support as she won't be able to remedy her low Atk with Triangle Adept or gem weapons like the rest of the colored singer/dancers (unless of course she breaks the mold like what Amelia did wIth Armored units).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on September 28, 2017, 10:10:54 pm
Nah, Olivia is gonna have an even lower BST than the existing dancers because she's a ranged unit. Inigo and Shigure too.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on September 28, 2017, 10:24:48 pm

Turns out they have even lower BST (139-140) than mounted mages (144-145).

Inigo and Shigure have pretty bad stat distributions...you really don't want 'em taking a hit if you're not running TA Raven. Shigure is specially bad since he's too slow for a blade tome.

Back from my second trip to Colorless Hell I was able to pull another Olivia who is unfortunately also -Spd like the first one I pulled, but it's not that big of a deal considering she's a dancer and all. On my way though I was also able to pull 2 Takumis surpringly and now I'm trying to figure out who to give Close Counter to. I've been leaning on my +Spd Leon, but it wouldn't hurt to have a second opinion on who runs CC the best.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on September 30, 2017, 04:33:32 pm
Holy cow, I just realised Inigo is a decent green mage (who knew) and with the right skills and IVs, he can fight certain bow users and take out Reinhart. My take on the strongest units in order is Nohr Azura, Inigo, Colorless Olivia, and Shigure (love him but dang does he suck as a mage). But at the end of the day, because they're dancers/singers, their stat spread is very ridiculous and many times they won't kill unless you do something to their build.

The best users of Watersweep at the moment are dagger units. With most of them having low Atk, but high Spd it suits them best to help debuff and chip away at durable targets. You really don't want to use Watersweep on your high Spd, high Atk Mages/Archers since you want them to double.

Bound Hero Battle with Maria and Minerva is out. Was able to clear all difficulties with Bridelia, Jeorge, Vanilla Olivia, and Axezura. Brave Bow is basically a free win here, but be mindful of the Red Mage with Bow Breaker and the Flying Lance Knight (2 in Infernal) who has Iotes Shield, but those units have pretty low Def so they shouldn't be too much of a problem. Probably the easiest BHB yet.

I want male Corrin to take it. It seems like everyone figured he'd be #TeamFeathers but then he got too much support.

He's getting destroyed right now by almost 4 billion points and he's had a multiplier since a few hours after the start of the second round.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on October 11, 2017, 06:05:31 pm
Armor emblem trivializes this BHB since armor march ignores terrain penalties, the enemies have piss poor defense and no armor slayers, heavy spears or hammers. Definitely the easiest BHB so far.

The cool thing about this low bonus threshold (even though it fucked over team Nowi) is that it made feather hunting easier. Now that the biggest loser (i.e. M! Corrin) is pretty much guaranteed to have high multipliers on the last stretch of the round the strategy is a no brainer: join loser, hoard flags, dump them in the last few hours.

I have 900 flags that I'm keeping for the last few hours when we get a x12 multiplier. Considering how things went for the previous round, I'm positive that's what everyone is doing by now. Two hours before the end of the first round, I was ranked like 700 something, and this morning I got my total score ranking at almost 2000.

Team Fae had a bonus for nearly 40 hours straight and still ended up losing.
I didn't look at what the difference was as things went on, but she lost with a 2% difference (11 billions to 11.24 billions). I don't think the multiplier was very high for 40 hours. With Corrin, I regularly saw x5, x6 and I think there was a x7 multiplier at some point. That's absolutely why he won in the last 2 hours by a 1% margin (and why I lost so many ranks).
Also, it's Fae. Even with a x20 multiplier she should still lose.

Corrin has been ahead for just 2 hours out of 36, triggering Ninian's bonus and getting into a 3 and 6 billion deficit each time.

He has a non-trivial chance of winning if he gets the last multiplier, but it's that's not gonna happen thanks to all the players burning flags in the last hours.

Berkut can actually tank Lancebreaker Reinhardt if he is on a defensive tile, oddly enough. A weird niche but it's there.

Even if Sigurd has low res, his horse buddies can carry him and make him mage proof.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on October 13, 2017, 03:17:37 pm
I mean, Berkut ended up kind of underwhelming in general with his stat spread and overall utility, regardless of his proclaimed magebreaking set.
I'm not too worried though because since the Brave Heroes releases, everyone and their mother has been getting broken skills and weapons that take completely lopsided stats and massively boost either one into broken level or the other for an indestructible tank. Like BIke's tanky DEF and brave weapon-negating ability that proved to be a Reinhardt-counter, which Sigurd is also getting (a variation of).

Speaking of, I'm looking forward to how insane things will get with the new seals. The "how I beat this GHB" videos are going to be dumber and dumber, even more than everyone going "just use Bridelia lol" .

>Divine Tyrfing, Crusader's Ward
Well someone doesn't like mages.
In FE4 the Tyrfing gave +10 skill, +10 speed, +20 res and the prayer/miracle skill. So yeah, he's the OG mage killer.

Edit:
Ayra at the end might be hinting at her being the next GHB unit.
The leak (which has been trustworthy so far) said the next GHB is Arvis. And previous stealth reveals (Clive, BK) have been TT rewards. So, putting two and two together...

If there is an FE4 TT then you'll have to get one of these new units for the bonus. Obviously getting Sigurd will make life easier.

Amelia's my SS. I don't feel any particular urge to penetrante her prebuscent ass, picked her mostly for the novelty of having the highest possible stats in the game. But she's the backbone of my armor team (which I've been using a lot since BK came out) and she really gets the more mileage out of the stats bonus since her base stats are all around high, so I don't see myself ever changing her. Plus it's a pain to farm all those kills outside of a TT.

holy shit, Arden. IS remembered Arden exists. And he even comes with the pursuit ring!

Ayra art, stats and skills all look top-notch. But there's only one GHB (and we know for sure it's Arvis's) and one TT in sight. And nobody would use orbs on Arden, so...

Also did a yolo summon on the dancer banner for Shigure and got him on the first pull. He's -Spd, but I really just wanted him for his Blue Tome Valor skill.

Arvis GHB is out. Despite the reinforcements, it's actually a fairly simple GHB due to wide open area with no chokepoints.

Completed all of the difficulties including Infernal in one try with Reinhardt, Axezura, Vanilla Olivia, and Bridelia. There's a lot more reinforcements in Infernal than the rest of the difficulties so don't try to take too long or you'll be flanked on all sides.

Also Def Ploy 3 can be inherited from Arvis at 4*. Now everyone can be Est-Tier

Welp, Arvis is a bit weird. Recover ring and Valflame are nice, but def ploy is useless on him (just give us a seal for that, geez) and I don't see many good options to make him high tier, beside the ever almighty Fury (good thing he has his ring) and a maxed Speed seal, to make use of the one stat he has better than Lilina.

Because Arvis decided to pull an Oboro by having a debuffing skill he can't utilize, I might feed my extra Deirdre to him for Spd Ploy unless I find another unit that needs QR3.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on October 18, 2017, 09:52:50 pm
Oboro's default kit is all sorts of crappy. Thank Naga for SI. Anyways being able to debuff def from afar while being a mage isn't that bad. C slots are flexible and one of his teammates most likely has a physical weapon. Speed ploy would be the premium c slot skill though.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on October 18, 2017, 11:56:33 pm
oboro's threaten res is completely useless since she needs to be close to do the debuffing and that's too tricky to pull off without her dying, but i can see getting use out of def ploy on a mage
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on October 19, 2017, 12:17:58 am
I'm thinking of giving my two spare Def Ploys to my Camilla 4* +7 and 5* Caeda. They do physical damage but have garbage ATK, and they both have 34 RES which should be pretty good (I have only a few units that have more than that - Arvis, Summer Leo and Sonya all at 35).
The only problem with the whole system is that if I change my mind, I don't really want to lose either of them (more for collection purpose and for the time I spent trying to build them up than actual use, of course).

and on top of that, there's still 2 other really good banners still going. Considering it's almost 100% certain that none of those units will ever be available at 4* (something that's already shitty), that's just a cash grab free-for-all.

Getting Ayra for free was too good to be true. Welp, at least Arden is better than Clive and Tobin. Too bad nobody will use him.

There were no new seals in the latest datamine, right? Without seals or a BK-level unit to look forward to grinding on the next TT is going to be painful.

Clive is pretty damn good. No distant counter to put a vantage on, but he has great stats, while Camus is getting a little light on power, which makes his distant counter less interesting. Clive is a great horse emblem option for anyone who missed Xander and Camus. I ditched both of them from my horse emblem months ago, honestly.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on October 19, 2017, 08:57:28 pm
A lot of people are getting angry over this for the wrong reason. The majority of people I've seen so far have been under the assumption that Ayra would be a free unit cause they saw the datamine which showed her having a 4* rarity and not being on the Holy War banner, thus getting the impression she would be a TT or GHB unit (like I did). While IS never hinted at her being free they should be upset over the fact that a new unit was introduced in a separate banner that shares the same color with an old unit that immediately reduces the chances of pulling for her which blatantly comes off as a cash grab.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on October 19, 2017, 09:06:04 pm

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on October 19, 2017, 09:08:42 pm
I'm not mad about her not being free. What I'm mad about is that she is a new unit on a banner with two old units and one of those old units (granted, Eldigan is impossible to summon on a banner) shares the same colour as the new unit and will ruin the summon rate for many people.

You can also see it coming that there will be a Halloween banner very soon. Gacha games always want you to spend all your resources in a heavy stream - in high numbers in a short time and for multiple objectives, and then get you to spend some more, so you definitely need to buy a lot. Getting you to spend orbs on 3, probably 4 banners at the same time but revealed one after the other with no warning is the worst kind of annoying shit they can pull.

Post by: Foobs on October 20, 2017, 01:20:42 am
TBF being dumped in the 5* is hardly different from being a limited unit, your chances of pulling Ayra after this banner ends are pretty much trivial.

The objectively bad things about this conundrum isn't that Ayra isn't free and her banner came out of the blue, but: 1) her unjustified BST 2) her banner is terrible and 3) how all her shit is unique. This wouldn't feel like a slap in the face to all the non-dc sword units if she had normal stats and wasn't the only unit a speed based special and speed based heavy blade.

If IS wants to make infantry melee relevant in a meta ruled by mages and archers then they should have access to all that destructive shit. Lon'Qu, Hanna and the other gazillion fast sword infantry would rejoice if they could use regnal astra.

I just realized with Brash Assault as a seal
Put it on Arden and level it up and you get permanent quad on attack ???
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on October 23, 2017, 06:03:52 pm
If it works like regular Brash Assault, then yes and no. It will only work on units that can counter attack so you won't be able to quad any mages, archers, staff, or dagger units.

Wouldn't be surprised if that "Witch hat" shape on the left side would be Witch Corrin, I'm either thinking that's Leo or Henry on the right side though.

EDIT: Actually, depending on the angle, that could be a Jester hat (on the left side)

Sakura in an Infantry Dagger, Nowi is a Flying Red Mage with a Legendary Weapon, Jakob an Armored Archer, and Henry is an Armored Green Mage. Very interesting to say the least.

Flying green mage in spring, blue in summer, red in autumn. What will we get for Christmas ??
Also they're trying hard to make ninjas relevant, but only for limited 5* units so it's still irrelevant.

Finally after 4 Eldigans, a ton of red pity breakers such as Brave Roy, Katarina, Saber, Marth, and Vanilla Roy, 3 Ayras that had -Atk and 1 with -Spd, I finally pull an Ayra with +Spd/-HP. The only other saving grace is that I spent a little over 200 orbs for all of these 5*s so the pull rate was actually working in my favor.

...don't chase after IVs...
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on October 27, 2017, 10:40:05 am
Yeah, got a bunch of Eldigans until I got my beautiful +ATK/-SPD Ayra... Now I got to worry about getting a seasonal unit, which I never got before...Halloween might be the chance to get a seasonal unit in a banner! That and still Salty from my 10% chance in the Nohr Summer banner.

Edit: Does the Performing Arts count? I wouldn't say so because when I think Seasonal, major holidays that Japan likes to celebrate too.

I just noticed Henry is like Julia, his magic sigil-thing is blue even though he's a green mage. Kinda wish he was blue instead of green so he wouldn't share colors with Amelia and Hector.

I really love how his version of "armor" is going Django.

First Ayra took me 13 orbs. Non-focus aside, I was able to pull 5 Ayras and 4 Eldigans while trying to get better IVs so it seems pretty even for the most part. Or you could be that one unlucky guy I saw on Reddit who mega whaled and pulled 25+ Eldigans in a row.

40, one banner getting Eldigan twice and Ayra on the second. I still feel bad about the 10% Summer banner rate, but since the PA units won't come back for a while, I can get over it.

Post by: Byakko on October 31, 2017, 11:22:01 am
So the other day on Reddit, I saw a Henry 5* +10 merge and summoner support (so +6 on all stats) tanking a Reinhard and it got me thinking about all the lame ducks.
I made a 4* Laslow +8, gave him Wo Dao+ and Sturdy Blow from 2 Athenas, he hits 52 atk. Maybe you can get units out of the terrible zone with 4* merges and giving them a 5* weapon.
Technically, getting 11 copies of a 4*, getting one to 5, and merging them all in a 4* including the 5* weapon, is a little bit better than the 5* alone. Any unusable 5* (bad IV, someone who wrecked your pity rate when trying for a specific limited unit) can be salvaged that way too, making their weapon worth it. (Looking at you, Sheena who is neither Deirdre nor Tailtiu)

I'm working on a Camilla 4* +8, planning to give her a Silver Axe+ from a Gunter and 20k feathers to bring her to 36 46 33 28 34, which is finally starting to be usable. I don't want to toss a Fury on her with that shit HP but any other A skill should make her decent at long last.
(Also I find it odd that no one cares about the Silver+ weapons, Fred would hit 50 with that, toss quick riposte on that defense or death blow on that offense and watch)

Considering that we're clearly never getting anything worth shit below 5* ever again, and considering that today's units are all completely lopsided in their stats, now that the defensive game is finally starting to pick up and feathers are much easier to stock up on to make all the 3*s worth it, maybe this can give a second wind to early unusable units ?
And speaking of second winds, with brash assault seal, I am currently looking forward to seals for all Defiant skills, Savage Blow, all that shit that you would never use as skills because there's better skills on those slots.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on October 31, 2017, 12:21:53 pm
Heavily merged 4 stars are also a great way of staying in tier 20. Just merge all the Draugs you get and you'll be good. Another good thing to do is 5* a Nino, give her Gronnblade+ to a 4* Nino and then merge that one.

I was thinking of merging Camilla, because of how well balanced she is but at 5*. If I can get my hands on Slaying Lance, she can become a strong unit.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on November 08, 2017, 05:27:59 am
I believe Katarina and Ryoma lost due to their rarity since both of them only appeared in one banner before the voting gauntlet meaning more people had access to Soren and to a lesser extent Amelia.

Guess I'm going Soren.

This is stupid. Not only was Ryoma was winning throughout, he had the most supporters out of the whole 8. I don't want to participate in this any more. People are so concerned with feathers that they all choose someone they think is going to lose.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on November 08, 2017, 07:02:54 am
Now you know how I felt when Lyn got shafted by Camilla due to multipliers.

To be honest, the entire multiplier system in general is flawed since it's really counter productive. It really rewards those who don't play since they can choose a team they know is unpopular and will get a ton of bonuses, hoard all of those flags, and then burn them all in the last few hours for massive points. Even if they win, they still get more feathers. It's literally a win/win for them.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on November 08, 2017, 07:14:55 am

Finally watching the FEH channel video just now
... The staff users are getting stuff that ninjas should have with all the debuffs. Meanwhile ninjas in general are still shit except the 5*-only ones in limited banners.
Glad that (some) specials are getting a CD reduction. Most of those were useless - but I don't know if that'll make it enough to use AOE and healing skills.
Weapon refinery was long expected (and lol killing > slaying, naga > divine naga etc. upgrade). But making the bonus give the same type of extra stat boost or skills as the recent legendary weapons is pretty cool (and it's a bit crazy that each weapon has a specific set of possible upgrades), I suppose that'll make it easier to swallow the BST ramp up. More farming item types though, that's the bane of all mobage. Silver coins area already annoying as they're scrambling to give us new means to collect them.
(still probably not gonna make Seliph worth shit though !)

So according to the in-game announcement, Fjorm is summonable through Hero Fest 3. So if you’re interested in strengthening her through merges, or want to get an optimal IV, this is the only way as of now unless they make her a permanent part of the summoning pool. But you still have to go through Bridal Caeda and Fabulous “Spring is here!” Xander.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on November 16, 2017, 12:36:09 am
Isn't she's a guaranteed summon ? I understood that as she'll be like the Brave Heroes, and it would make sense that you can't get multiple copies of her, just one, like the other Askr guys, but if she's actually in the pool, I don't really get it...
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on November 16, 2017, 12:39:24 am
she's a guaranteed reward after clearing the new chapter. unless you want more copies of her (or care too much about ivs) for merging or skill fodder there's very little reason to pull blues on that banner
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on November 16, 2017, 12:46:08 am
It’s as Titiln says, she’s a reward for clearing the first chapters of Book 2. It’s just that Hero Fest 3 will give you the chance to get more copies of her for merges, skill fodder, or IV optimization if you so desire.

This would have been another Ayra situation if IS didn’t hand out a free Fjorm to everyone. At least they’re starting to learn. I’m just worried what’s coming with the eventual Tempest Trials banner coming in a few days.

New Bound Hero Battle with Hinoka and Takumi who want revenge on Shana, along with a banner with those two and Sakura.

Was able to clear Infernal with Flier Emblem (Bunilla, Elincia, Beach Time Corrin, and Hinoka). 

- Had to make Bunilla tank a hit from Takumi and one shot him in return.
- Beach Time Corrin took out Hinoka, Elincia killed the Green Axe Cavalier, Hinoka repositioned Elincia out of the way to have Bunilla take out the Blue Mage Cavalier.
- Beach Time Corrin tanked a hit from the Sword Flier
- Hinoka killed Red Mage and Red Sword Flier

My green pulls are almost always Barst, Bartre, and Hawkeye. I really wish they would fix the 5* pool. I dont see why Karel, Jacob, Jaffar, Kain, Peri, Merrick, most healers, etc arent 3*s. When you look at just how good some of these new 5*s are, these old units just cant keep up. Also, if they are giving out the new hero as a banner unit, I kind of hope they add the other starter units in upcoming banners or as additional quest rewards or something. Especially with as often as they are used for quests
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on November 23, 2017, 07:24:29 pm
The five star pool definitely needs a shake up. I think the only healers that should be 5 star are Elise and Genny.

It always feels like the off banner units have a higher chance of appearing than the focus units. Well an off banner unit is better than a focus cock block unit.

First try in Infernal with Jeorge, Bridelia, Ninian, and Nohr Azura.

Had Jeorge tank a hit from Michalis to proc WoM on both Dancers. Made use of the Axebreaker I gave Bridelia a while back to ORKO Michalis, then Mysterious Dancer X took care of the Lance Fighter while Bridelia and Jeorge killed the rest.

I also happen to have pulled Lute. +Res/-Atk, but it's nothing Fury won't fix.

ok so... if another fest is coming in less than a month, should we maybe just skip this one? Cause blue is pretty crap and the pity rate(as far as I can tell) is actually less than a normal banner(since you dont have a pity breaker rate increase as well in less they gave us new info). I have a lot of the units in this banner, but kind of want to pull on red and colorless
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on November 27, 2017, 05:13:21 pm
Pretty sure the pity rate will go up 0.50% for focus instead of 0.25% for focus and 0.25% for non-focus as usual. And even if doesn't, not getting fucked with a terrible pity breaker like Priscilla, Seliph or Hawkeye is a boon on itself.

Byakko's dream came true (https://www.reddit.com/r/FireEmblemHeroes/comments/7g1lv5/upgraded_weapon_effects_compilation_thread/)

Quote
All dagger debuffs now affect target and a 2 space AoE
-Deathly Dagger does 10 post-combat damage to target and a 2 space AoE for all upgrades, special upgrade prevents tome users from countering
-Smoke Dagger debuffs all stats by 6, not just Def/Res (and affect the target as well)
-Rogue Dagger is now Def/Res +/- 6 instead of 5, and the buff affects allies in a 2 space AoE around the user as well

Between this and the staff buffs, debuffing might finally be viable.

Got Ike, Deirdre and Caeda. I think I just need Genny but I'd rather get her as a pity breaker. The 8% rate is actually super low when you consider that there's actually 2% less chance of getting a 5 star.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on November 28, 2017, 07:15:06 pm
What do you mean? Normally your chances to get a 5* under normal banners is 6% (with the pity% also going up at the same rate at 0.5% per 5 summons) with previous Hero Fest Banners also having a 8%, but had the focus weighted at 5%.

Welp, the phone I usually play this game with finally konked out. I don't even got the resources needed to get a new one until the 17th of next month. Guess I got to use emulation until then, but holy cow the story is getting up there with stakes and the whole elemental blessing system which probably means we'll get a earth, wind and fire element unit (a deserter joins the team maybe). IS really outdone themselves and really giving dagger and staves a boost in skills and abilities...but why dragons though, they're a hone away from pure anarchy and doom. There's just so much to talk about man.....

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on November 29, 2017, 02:50:45 pm
Well it depends, are you interested in the units in this banner ? Someone who started playing mid summer would be very interested in bridelia, ike, hector, ayra etc. Personally I'm not rolling on it because I already have the units on it that I care about (bridelia is not one of them), but if you want them, it's definitely a good banner.

As for a future hero fest even better than this, it would have to be even more unique than the seasonal units. Who else is super rare ? Amelia, stuff like that with a unique skill or weapon, the performing arts units, maybe rare ones like Delthea or Alm ? Having Hector, bridelia and Ayra in this one makes it pretty damn good already.

Oh yeah, weapon forge. Ninjas should finally be usable (a bit), and I like how selecting different upgrades allows up to make up for a bad IV or help you minmax a chosen stat. My +9 4* Camilla with Silver Axe+ and extra def can get 32 def 34 res, Raven can get 56 atk, nice.
But so far it costs way too much material, you're lucky if you can do more than a couple like that. Usually when games introduce new farming mat, they have to introduce new game modes to have them as rewards.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on November 29, 2017, 05:35:49 pm
Yeah, the forge looks like another high skill for a few units and grinding for it seems nightmarish. But still, it's high reward for those willing to put in the work.

I was kind of hoping the Fujin Yumi buff would have been better. A couple of them became upgraded Wo Dao's. One of them has fury 3 built in. Etc. A ton of grinding, but not sure if some of them are worth it when blade tomes, quad builds, etc are still so strong. It was nice to see that you can't just inherit a weapon and then buff it.

Ooh, I see. Checking the new notification, the killing > slaying upgrade got messy because inheriting slaying+ has "have the base slaying weapon" as prerequisite lol.
The fix is just to have base killing/assassin weapon be a prerequisite to inherit the slay/guard version, so you can just inherit both like normal.
The side effect will be allowing Amelia's slaying axe+ to be directly inherited unto a killer axe owner without going through killer+ or base slaying axe, which will save us a bit of SP, not too bad (especially considering the killer weapons were made useless by the slaying ones).

I try to pick a team I dont think will win(Last time I picked Shanna lol). Im pretty sure Rhajat will be knocked down to 4* after her banner. I honestly dont think she should even be a 4* since Nino is so much better and she is a 3*. Same for a lot of other 4*s imo.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on December 02, 2017, 05:55:39 pm
Rhajat looks like she's made as a decent option for a Brave Lyn counter. Passable def (especially for a mage) with Distant Def, decent health, good speed, and then Keen Gronnwolf has horse slayer with a nice atk and can even take out horse buffs (although I'm not sure Brave Lyn often needs horse buffs, I don't need any for her in my horse emblem).
The wolf tome has what multiplier, 1.2 or 1.5 ? I always forget. If it's 1.5, Rhajat can take one hit and then OHKO Brave Lyn before the second hit of getting doubled, even if Rhajat gets doubled every time at the same spd boon.
On attack, Rhajat OHKOs Brave Lyn all the time, but then again so does Nino. But on defense, Rhajat survives and kills Brave Lyn, which Nino doesn't.
In fact, Vantage Rhajat seems like she'll wreck havoc on the horse meta with her high damage single hit and passable def/res, she counters both Reinhardt and Lyn and her single hit nuke means the deflect seal won't work, and Keen Wolf takes care of the rest (except swords I guess).
Oh yeah, and the other wolf tome users are pretty bad, and we've all known for a while that they're good counters to the horse meta but I don't see a lot of people who want to waste a rare GHB unit to inherit the tome unto someone else. Rhajat is actually completely viable by herself even before the horse slaying.

lol good luck expecting any new unit to show up at 3* ever.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on December 02, 2017, 06:44:19 pm
The reason units with higher bst and rare skills keep being released is to prevent the "just use Nino" argument. Like Brave Ike has a similar stat spread to Bartre who has better availability, but nobody would use him over Ike.

I got Sieg and Soleil (+spd-res and +spd-atk respectively which is great for Soleil) no Shiro who is the only one I wanted :( I actually got nearly no blue stone and a few greens, wtf.
At least I also got Rhajat.

I wonder why they keep making horse emblem killers but they keep pumping broken horse units (especially swords, way too many of them).

I constantly switch out blade and wolf on her but the build stays mostly the same.

(https://i.imgur.com/8eENcpz.jpg)

With her buff bot she gets +4 spd and +3 to everything else. Memebow Reinhardt can't do much to her and she can still kill him even if he is on a defensive tile. With wolf equipped she can tank and one shot Lyn even if she is on a defensive tile as well.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on December 05, 2017, 09:56:58 pm
For Fjorm I think steady breath, close defence or atk res bond are her best a slot skills. Even without DD3 she can tank most mages. I hope Shield Pulse or Guard becomes a seal because being in slot b is lame.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on December 05, 2017, 11:10:09 pm
I was considering Steady Breath and pulling a Brave Ike while the Tempest Trials banner was up, but I was really keen on hoarding my orbs until best daughter arrived. Though I will consider Close Defense as a possible A-Slot alternative since I still have that 4* Joshua lying around, though Atk/Def Bond has been working for me so far.

If anything, if I do start pulling for Rhajat and she has a +Spd IV I'll probably just end up keeping her anyways.

Post by: Foobs on December 08, 2017, 05:35:55 pm
It still has the HP>90% limitation, but unlike brash assault the enemy doesn't have to be able to counter.

Apparently Siegmund's skill overwrites windsweeps no followup limitation, so neutral Ephraim with Darting blow 3, Windsweep 3 and and Phantom Speed 3 (25+6+10=41) could double every unit with 40 spd or less without worrying about getting countered. That's an insane player phase potential.

nvm. You still need enough speed to double the target and windsweep won't add to it.

apparently super windsweeper ephraim will only hit twice if his speed is +5 the opponent's (phantom speed nonwithstanding). a +spd ephraim with darting blow attacks at 35 and buffs can easily help him get above that so it's still pretty good

4*+9 Camilla with Silver Axe+ and def up sits at 41 48 34 32 34 with Darting Blow 3
4*+9 Laslow with Wo Dao+ def up has 50 54 26 34 23 and Sturdy Blow 2 (and Draconic Aura right now but I just might give him his Noontime/Sol back)
4*+9 Sheena has 46 46 23 41 33 Slaying Axe+ and she'll be getting res up on it, and I still haven't decided on any of her ABC skill.
4*+8 Raven with Slaying Axe+ has 45 54 41 21 15 with Life and Death, still has Sol for a special (should actually be nice with his high HP, high attack, high speed, low def), and I'm thinking of giving him speed up on his weapon just to be safe, unless 21 def really doesn't cut it even with Sol.
My Summer Fred also needs a def up bonus on his weapon, I seriously want that real AOE effect on his def/res-7.
The rest will come over several weeks, but I'm planning for def up Clive, res up Rhajat (I don't feel I really need the horse debuffer right now)...

I really appreciate that some of the underdogs that had "average everywhere, good nowhere" stats at the start of the game get a real chance to be turned into monsters. The +10 merge, the seals, the weapon inheritance, all of that was still "not quite enough" (especially with Slaying Axe being so rare in my case, before Slaying Axe I was considering giving a Legion's Axe+ to Sheena), but with those upgrades, I'm finally really loving what I can get.
Divine Dew will probably go to Takumi but I don't really use anyone who needs it.

edit - oh yeah, Michalis could be nice, but that's just too many axes for me.

I'm pretty much on the same boat. The only weapons I've upgraded are Nowi's lightning breath (+def refinement) and Lukas' old killer lance into a flashy slaying lance. Might go all the way out and refine it for the extra def later.

Other stuff I have in mind: making Alphonse semi-useful with a armorsmasher+ (he can ohko all green armors and orko all the reds with sword breaker); troll Azama build (got everything I need, but it's still too expensive), Guard Bow+ for Halowwen Jakob (need another Setsuna).

New Bound Hero Battle with Tana and Amelia is out. Reinforcements do appear in this map. Was able to clear Infernal with Ayra, Bridelia, Reinhardt, and Axezura. Tana's side of the map with her Fliers aren't hard to deal with, but Amelia with her Armored (especially with Armor March) and Mage friends can be pain to deal with as they can close the gap relatively quick.

Warriors Maps are also back, so get your SP grinding on.

A flier team can stall and kill the armors once Tana and her reinforcements die. IS really dropped the ball by making half of the map water and not adding archers in the infernal difficulty.

I’m actually annoyed Rhajat wasn’t demoted to 4*. I changed my mind and pulled for Shiro instead with that mindset since I thought Rhajat would just come naturally from pulling like with every other 5* I missed that got demoted to 4*.

Now I have to wait for her to become a focus again.

A flier team can stall and kill the armors once Tana and her reinforcements die. IS really dropped the ball by making half of the map water and not adding archers in the infernal difficulty.

To be honest, I didn’t want to use Flier Emblem cause I was having too much fun with my main team with Ayra, Bridelia, Fjorm, and Sonya. When Fjorm wasn’t able to tank all of the enemies and Sonya wasn’t able to one shot the Armors reliably in Infernal, I busted out Reinhardt and a dancer. Was too stupid to realize at the time I could have just used my Flier team and saved myself the trouble.

Wanted another Tharja or Lissa for SI purposes, but got another Robin. Though I now plan on giving his A-skill to my +Spd/-HP Eldigan after I refine his weapon so he can hit 61 Atk and 40 Spd unbuffed when under 80% HP.

If it makes you feel better, that luck was balanced out that all of them had -Atk/-Spd banes. Kind of a bummer yeah, but I was mainly going to use Tharja as a SP booster when training Red Mages and I really don’t see myself using Robin.

Lissa on the other hand is fun as hell with a Brave Axe since she basically has a permanent follow up Ring that only works on player phase which also helps her charge her special faster (mine is +Res/-Spd, so Glacies shenanigans).

That's to be expected, honestly.

I'm more pissed off for getting Masked Marth again, even another Tobin would be more useful. This and the Navarre re-run seem like IS giving players the middle finger.

The bonus units ? Isn't the free one normally always in the 40% ? It's usually just 3 of the new banner and then someone else. Or is it because it's the first special banner with 4 units ? I don't remember.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on December 22, 2017, 03:06:42 pm
There have been a lot of three unit banners so they usually add a fourth  40% unit in an additional banner with two or three 20% units. This time there are four units on the main banner so the new banner only has 20% units.

I got Lucina on free summon with neutral ivs so she's the same as Masked Marth.

Also I've read in some discords and youtubers that there was data for a new unit (The 200th unit to be precise) but I don't have any data miner sources confirming that.

datamine discord said:
Xanek  (ง ᐛ )ง: 5 units
Xanek  (ง ᐛ )ง: well for some reason the values show 200 units, (previously was 195), but game files only show pics for 4 units
Xanek  (ง ᐛ )ง: (game only shows 199 units in the catalog), though idk could just be finding some random value that's not a unit

TT's own reward units have never been 40% bonus units. They're always 20%.

Last TT: B! Ike was 40%, Joshua was 20%
Genealogy TT: Ayra was 40%, Arden was 20%
PoR TT: Vanilla Ike was 40%, Burger King was 20%.

It's the same pattern as before, the only difference is that the four 40% units come from a singular banner instead of a having an odd one among them.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on December 22, 2017, 07:55:35 pm
I'm expecting the 200th unit being the next Legendary Hero that could potentially be in Hero Fest 4 sometime next week.

I was also kind of upset that 40% Bonus Heroes in the Tempest was the Christmas units, until I pulled a +Atk/-Spd Christmas Chrom.

Heavy Blade being the last reward took me by surprise. Who'd expect a very valuable A skill exclusive to a 5* hero to be a seal? Close Counter and Distant Counter seals don't sound like pipe dreams now.

So many good choices for HB; galeforce Minerva, LnD glimmer Soleil, every bladetome user...

It doesn't help that there's going to be a new banner on Monday after the Christmas one ends which I feel like is another seasonal one to celebrate New Years. Granted they're giving us a lot of orbs to play around with, but it honestly feels like they're strong arming us right now with all of these banners.

I've been really put off from playing this game due to the lack of new content that's not new units/banners. Here's hoping to the 1 year anniversary being something worthwhile.

The only unit that seems to have a inflated BST this time is Camilla, so it's good to know that they're easing up on the power creep for now. I'm going to pass on Hero Fest 4 and save my orbs for New Years since I kinda want Camilla and Azura (especially if she's a dancer) to help expand my Flier Emblem teams
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on December 28, 2017, 06:16:36 am
Takumi and Corrin do have inflated stats albeit it's not so bad as Camilla/Ayra/Sigurd/the christmas units (151-152 vs 148-149 for ranged infantry).

Azura has the same bst as the other melee dancer so IS still has some semblance of balance in mind.

So after looking at her sprite, I kind of caved in and tried to pull for Gunnthra. Was able to pull her and a Bunny Chrom in 19 Orbs.

She’s +Res/-Spd, but it’s all good considering I basically got her for “free”.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on December 29, 2017, 01:46:29 am
Do check out the notifications, there were a bunch of new ones and one of them is a survey (dated dec. 27th). The questions are rather interesting - likes and dislikes for everything (with good options), and a few questions on whether you'd like to play real time PvP, town building etc.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

Only got carrot boy on the 8% banner. New year banner... Flying sword is a rare treasure, archer Corrin looks okay and might be interesting (if only because powercreep), but those designs are so bad.
Edit - oh never mind. Saw the datamined skills, this is a useless banner - they're kinda decent actually (flying singer, Takumi's attack and debuff, archer Corrin, more bond skills) but they look bad and they seem to be just above average on everything but not that interesting.
(hm, it looks like Camilla should be pretty good with any boon except HP, actually)
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on December 29, 2017, 03:19:56 am
Yeah, I already completed the survey not too long ago.

Main stuff I wanted to address with them:
1. Mainly dissatisfied with the current state of the game.
2. Suggested an update to the boon/bane system where one can reroll without the need to summon the same unit again.
3. More unique game modes/events like a Raid which are present in other Gacha games of the same genre.
4. They need to up their story telling/presentation to be a more engaging experience (I explicitly compared Heroes to FGO in this regard). Hell the closest thing Heroes actually got me to care about the plot was during the Mini-Tempest Trials with Hector.
 
There was other stuff I wanted to pointed out to them, but I basically vented on them on this survey. This feedback may fall on deaf earseyes, but I feel good trying let them know I feel about the current state of the game.

I'm pretty sure apathy starts earlier in the chain of command, I don't have much faith in TH (are they actually involved in this game? I thought a third party was handling the translation).

I don't expect IS to do any major changes like improving the story or adding new modes, but if enough japs complain about how badly the developers dropped the ball on Christmas and how re-runs suck they might give us better content.

Oh and I got fetish Lyn from the legendary banner (great IVs to boot). I was gunning for her, Elise or the red horses so I'm satisfied.

Surprisingly, Male Corrin isn't on the banner. He's either going to be on a separate banner similar to Ayra/Rhajat, or I have a weird feeling that he's going to be a free unit from IS to celebrate New Years (it's nice to dream...).

I only picked up the Heavy Blade seal (upgraded to 3 instantly) but other than that there's nothing to do (beside the lv5/15 quests to get orbs and roll to get nothing). I even forgot to do arena and arena assault last week...

I caved and got a $10 play card and summoned her so yeah, I did try my damnest to get Fjorm's sister but I did get Three Amelias instead so there's that as well. I know that feel Byakko, I had to get my bearings back to get a good score in both modes. Azura can now sing in the air and on the ground now, what's next is a armored dancer/singer maybe?

I have 100,000 feathers that I'm not using much. I use a few from time to time to get a 3* to 4* for a +10 merge, and once in a while I use 20k to get a 5* weapon to give to a 4*+10, but that's it, whatever I use is usually refilled really fast. I have a few units with a rating at 199~203 with the refining system, which is the real hot thing at the moment - even Saizo can be real nice with his "-6 on every stat" weapon. It's too bad that it takes so long to upgrade just one weapon (I have a Sheena that could get to a rating of 212 but she's low on my priority list).

I was able to get all 3 of them (with an extra Micaiah) and great IVs with the exception of Zelgius who’s -Spd unfortunately. Having fun with Sothe who’s probably the best buffer/debuffer right now with his weapon. Just having a Dagger unit running around with 60+ Atk is pretty surreal in itself.

I totally see where you’re coming from and it does suck, but your summoning session seems the norm for this game especially with just around 50 orbs. I remember going all the way up to a 5.75% pity rate without a 5* once. So don’t let something like that discourage you too much.

Meanwhile, the arena is a shithole where people don't bother using the bonus units in their defense teams and you still have to, and that ends screwing up your deathless run too easily. Seriously, why aren't bonus units also calculated for the enemy's defense team, this garbage mode is so broken.

What are you talking about?

If you don't run a bonus unit in your defensive team it'll halve your score. Of course, since you only need one successful defense you can change it afterwards, but most people are too lazy for that.

Oliver GHB is out. Pretty easy Infernal, was able to do it with my main team of Bridelia, Ayra, Sonya, and Fjorm.

1. Positioned all units to the right side of the map.
2. Sonya kills Lance Cavalier. Ayra repositions her out of the way.
3. Ayra kills Green Manakete. Sonya repositions her out of the way and tanks Red Mage.
4. Sonya kills Red Mage. Fjorm repositions out the way.
5. Fjorm tanks and kills Red Sword Fighter. Bridelia kills Oliver.
6. Ayra kills Green Mage.

Oliver's Mirror Strike 3 can be inherited from 4*.

i wish they made an exception for this ghb and didn't phone in the looks for the map. the mansion you fight him in looked way better than the drab shit that is this map

Cleared the map with Sanaki, Deirdre, PA Azura and PA Olivia. The no horse tiles actually screw the sapphire cavalier making him a fish in a barrel.

Mirror strike is a 240 sp skill so it is good for Arena points but I wouldn't trash a f2p unit that isn't common

What are you talking about?

If you don't run a bonus unit in your defensive team it'll halve your score. Of course, since you only need one successful defense you can change it afterwards, but most people are too lazy for that.
In your defensive team, yes. And when you're attacking, you need a bonus unit in your attack team. But when you attack, you can get enemy defense teams who don't use bonus units for the same amount of points.
I'm saying they shouldn't appear as the team that gives you 700+ points if they don't have a bonus unit.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on January 14, 2018, 12:02:48 pm
At this point, you should always run a Reinhardt/Brave Lyn/Dragon counter on your team.

My arena core is Lilina (Hard Colorless/Green/Sword counter), Julia (Dragon/Reinhardt counter), and Ninian (Hard Red counter/Anti-Christmas Tharja). They're all heavily merged so I can afford to run them and stay in Tier 20 despite the BST penalty for ranged/dancer units.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on January 14, 2018, 12:12:07 pm
My high rating units (>200) are Laslow, Camilla (at 210 with the recent addition of summoner support), Nowi, Sheena, Frederick, all 4*+10. My defense team is 3 of those and a bonus unit. I don't have anyone else with that high a rating, and certainly no heavily merged 5* units (I might get Sigurd and Blucina around +5 soon at this rate but that's all).
Camilla is a good Reinhardt tank with 40 res, most of them have around 38 def give or take so they can tank BLyn... But I don't get that many Reinhardts and Lyns, they're not the ones that fuck up my score.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on January 14, 2018, 01:58:28 pm
Unlike Male Robin, Female Male Robin can counter Reinhardt, Brave Lyn, Blue Dragons, blue mages, no sell lance Cordelia(if she has lots of merges like mine, she can live attacks from red units sometimes) etc. So I normally get a few defence wins.

I agree with Dromarch though. Enemy defence teams should have bonus units on them.

I can't believe they found a way to make the Tempest even worse, the final map has zero wiggle room for any reposition or other movement that would prevent your first unit from getting killed after killing the one on the top left.
Def ploy and quick riposte, nice.

The seals are good. The final map is accurate to how annoying it was even without Takumi's death wave and the hexing rod guys. Unless you have a dancer or some good luck, it's real tough clearing the last map with 0 deaths
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on January 17, 2018, 07:15:41 am
I actually don't find the last map all that frustrating. My current Tempest Team is Ryoma, New York Taco, Micaiah, and Sakura. So depending if the enemies on either side of the map use magical or physical attacks, I let Ryoma handle physical attackers while NY Taco Soup (sometimes Micaiah) takes care of magic users.

Post by: Titiln on January 17, 2018, 07:47:05 am
AFAIK if hector uses wary fighter and the qr seal, he'll attack twice when attacked and only take one hit (as long as he's in qr2 health range). still think vantage is better though
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on January 18, 2018, 01:07:58 pm
If you are going crazy about getting high scores with no merges like me, Wary Fighter scores higher than vantage which sucks because slapping on a bunch of unreliable skills won't save you from this:

(https://i.imgur.com/FpIxE8X.jpg)

her higher bst allows her to show up more than other ranged horseys

Also there's a fodder banner with quite a few interesting units, but I have no orbs.

A new GHB? but it hasn't been 3 months yet!

So, Lyon GHB and Valter re-run. Meaning the summoning focus and TT mini is likely to be SS-centric with Lyon as the final boss. Meaning...
I'd forgotten about the new paralogue (rushed through lunatic for the orbs) and finished the normal difficulty today. Something about the story (finally) piqued my interest: Loki mentions Nagflar. It could be a completely new weapon called Nagflar or even the actual Nagflar of lore, but he was probably referring to this Naglfar (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Naglfar). That was Lyon's personal tome in the Sacred Stones. Lyon is possesed by Formortiis the Demon King (http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Fomortiis), and Loki mentions his "King", so...
This TT might tie up with Book II?

Edit: Marisa is the next TT reward (yet another sword).

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on January 24, 2018, 06:01:06 am
weird that we're getting brave eirika now

the english announcement doesn't really say marisa will be the tt reward unit, but the japanese announcement says she is

Quote
さらに次回の戦禍の連戦イベントでは、スコア報酬として新英雄「緋閃マリカ」が登場します

Furthermore, "Crimson-flash Marisa" will appear as a score-based reward for the next Tempest Trials

the way i see it, the japanese text says marisa is a score reward and whoever translated it took it as "marisa is a unit that increases ur tempest score". if she really is a reward unit then treehouse should be disbanded

lyon's tome is naglfar, which is like rauorraven except it has 3 more mt. exciting! his A skill is atk/res +2, his C skill is drive res 2 (learnable at 4). he also has vengeance
marisa has wo dao+, glimmer, hp/def +2 and infantry pulse 3 (fully learnable at 5)

Post by: Kohaku~★ on January 25, 2018, 11:22:09 am
Was able to pull a +Spd/-HP Brave Eirika and a +HP/-Spd Myrrh. Pretty satisfied, but I don't think I'll be pulling for L'Arachel.

I'm actually pretty interested in Marisa's statline. I happened to pull an extra Sigurd while going for Brave Eirika and I might plan to give her Close Def 3 to make her into a defensive sword unit.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on January 25, 2018, 11:46:21 am
Lyon is better Sophia? Worse Sophia? Well he's better than red Henry since he has an attack stat.
Give him TA & bow breaker or QR and he'll probably clean house.

Marisa's stat spread is alright. Similar to Karel but better.

I got a 5 star Soren on free summon. Sigh. Watersweep is trash so I might just send him home.

Sothe got demoted to 4 star and has life and death 3 at that rarity.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on January 25, 2018, 01:59:58 pm
Got Myrrh, Siegbert and my third Amelia with about 60 orbs. Not bad at all.

I'm was surprised to find only Myrrh has increased BST while Eirika (and sadly L'Arachel) matches release day units, just like Gunnthra. IS must've taken all the hate mail feedback concerning horse emblem to heart.

Pffff hahaha what the fuck.
I guess go with a high res unit and whichever sweep stops her from counter attacking, and just bank on her tiring herself out from Fury. Red mage with 50+ atk and around 40 res... there aren't that many. Death Blow Summer Leo with sweep and phantom speed ? Then finish her with a 60 atk sword when she's near death.

On Brave Lyn, I don't have that much trouble with her anymore, even with a firesweep bow. She feels like old news now.

the february update will bring brand new exclusive weapons to hinoka, felicia, raven and caeda. they're also adding weapon refinery options to the previously mentioned new prfs, zephiel's weapon and the three falchions (shadow dragon, gaiden and awakening) with separate effects for each
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on January 27, 2018, 08:15:51 am
I posted the news in the wrong thread...

But anyways! I'm hyped for the new legendary weapons especially for Hinoka. BUT part of me hopes that the weapons for Felicia and Caeda (highly doubtful of this one...) are sub-par/mediocre at best since I legit fed a Neko Sakura and Saber to them for Kitty Paddle and Slaying Edge+...
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on January 27, 2018, 08:48:48 am
Lol yeah I fed a Summer Robin's Deft Harpoon to Lukas a while back and I hesitate to spend 20 extra refining stones to get a slaying lance back (because the fish is silly). Cooldown isn't a big deal, but neither is deft harpoon's fury 2 at 100%.

edit - oh hey, I only just realized Raven's getting a weapon too. Maybe that'll help me make a decision on upgrading him (right now I could get him to 50 53 40 29 20 with a slaying axe+ fury desperation but I have too many upgraded axes to find him interesting enough and I need so many SP to go for it)
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on January 27, 2018, 09:07:00 am
If Felicia's plate is like in Fates it will target res instead of def.

I'm curious to see what the Falchion upgrades do.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on January 27, 2018, 11:31:10 am
That will change her play style entirely. She'll be going from a dedicated Mage killer to targeting melee units (who generally have low res to begin with). Nothing wrong with that, but that's a pretty big shift considering a lot of melee units run Distant Counter (from an Arena standpoint). Even with Windsweep, her incredibly low Atk isn't reliable at all to one shot in most end game content

I'm pretty sure her unique weapon will just give her the same effect of refined Breath weapons for Dragons.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 27, 2018, 02:04:42 pm
I really hope the Wing Sword will be like Caeda's Wing Spear from Shadow Dragon DS and be effective against both armor units AND cavalry units.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on January 27, 2018, 02:54:01 pm
I think that will be the case. The standard Caeda set nowadays is to run Slaying Edge or Wo Dao and bet the farm on a Glacies proc.
 
With a 16mt weapon, Caeda would have 41 attack at neutral. She has a super boon in atk (and def, and hp) so that will make her atk 45. If you get -atk you might as well just fodder her off for Fortify Fliers.

I hope that this means that more older heroes will get personal weapons or updates. Roy needs inbuilt Distant Counter!

Though Heroes has brought a lot of exposure to other FE titles, Reinhardt being in the top 10 is questionable.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on January 31, 2018, 08:56:05 pm
most of the people voting here didn't play any fire emblem games before (if alfonse, veronica, loki and lavawhatever placing so high are any indication) so reinhardt being up there isnt that surprising taking that into account
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on January 31, 2018, 09:02:33 pm
I guess, but you can't be surprised at Veronica, Laevatein & Loki being in the top 20. The convenience of a unit who can kill nearly every unit before they can even retaliate is more than enough to get someone in the top 10.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on January 31, 2018, 09:21:03 pm
yeah that's my point, most of the people voting had no previous attachment to any of the titles so they like reinhardt mostly because he is good at killing people, not because of tiny hand memes

I am still confused on how did Veronica get the second place slot. She does not even have a proper Fire Emblem game on the main consoles to call home yet!

It is because she is a cute but evil and homicidal imouto character?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on February 01, 2018, 02:13:51 pm
The influx of new players makes her not having a main series release irrelevant.

I kinda get why she's popular with newcomers, considering she's the only remotely developed character, but really don't get why people think she's cute. She's an ugly big headed midget.

Lol a literal nothing character ranked 16th on the female side and beat characters like Mia, Ninian, Nephenee and Female Robin. Like what the fuck Laevatein has no personality has shown up for maybe 10 seconds all together in book 2 and her dialogue consist of "..." and different variations of saying "Yes Master" her design isn't even that stand out since she looks like a recolored Severa. Are people really that desperate for her sword the only actual stand out thing about her?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on February 01, 2018, 04:34:24 pm
Do note that people who have only played fe heroes know nothing about Mia, Nephenee etc. beyond a couple of lines, while Veronica is involved in the story and I guess Laevateinn has a cool design while having no more and no less lines than Mia. Feh has given me nothing significant that makes me particularly care about Tharja and Nephenee beyond their design.

At least we'll get the 5* by the end of the month. Not too bad to be honest.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Lost_Avenger on February 02, 2018, 05:29:23 pm
Lucina, Robin(m), Camilla, and Brave Lyn were leading the last I checked(for the 4 color options). Robin was in 2nd. Not the seasonal one, but the one in the 3* pool. We could get any unit we wanted. It could be some top tier rare unit, a seasonal unit(I personally want Halloween Nowi or performing arts Azura), but nope, 3* Robin and Camilla are up there.

Also, came back and summoned. I pulled 2 Brave Lucinas, the green legendary hero who I will probably never use anyway, and summer Fredrick. So I guess the game noticed I uninstalled it after multiple full 3* pulls in a row and decided to give me a consolation prize.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Titiln on February 02, 2018, 05:39:53 pm
they're not leading anything. the pages are sorted by the units that people "tapped" the most on, so popular launch units and free units show up first (which is why virion and raigh are so high up) while more recent units like micaiah and rd ike are near the bottom. it's unintuitive as hell

>Basilikos is locked at 5*
Ffffffucking oversight. Now I need to find another Raven because my 4*+10 can't have it. Fuck you, game. Anyway it's a flat upgrade from Slaying Axe so that's good. But of course I'll need yet another 1000 SP to get it fully forged.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on February 08, 2018, 02:34:45 am
It's the same with every other hero with a refinable weapon, you need to sacrifice a 5* Eliwood or Seliph if you want to give your 4*+10 Blazing Durandal or Divine Tyrfing.

The upgrades are overall stronger than I expected. Caeda's the biggest winner imo.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on February 08, 2018, 02:53:23 am
Felicia's weapon also makes her incredibly viable now, making her otherwise non-existant offensive game much more consistent. Though she's still going to have problems against Distant Counter units (melee/dragon).

But I agree, Caeda has skyrocketed. Now I definitely regret feeding a Neko Sakura and Saber to them. At least I also got Guard 3 along with Kitty Paddle from Neko Sakura so it wasn't a complete waste.

Valentines Banner trailer:


Eliwood will be the Tempest Trails reward.

oh wow. Free pull on the new banner => Raven. Basilikos get.
Not trading 62/50 atk/spd for 17/11 def/res with double lnd even with desperation, I'm sticking with fury and +Def basilikos for 55/43/34/24, it's good enough, tyvm. Just have to test out if I still need Sol to balance fury or if I can switch out for Dragon Fang/Aura thanks to the HP boost.

Post by: Byakko on February 14, 2018, 09:51:13 am
I think there's an option to see what music is used - and change it ? The icon before the battle, like the one to see the map positioning.
I tried expert mode and hard mode. I'm not trying both at the same time. Expert mode is doable, but hard mode is insane on the last bunch of floors.

!!!! Armored boots as the Tempest reward = permanent armor march. Between the Christmas and Valentine units, that's just crazy.

Edit
Just met a Tempest map with a Zelgius with no weapon. Hiding behind trees and obstacles so I have to walk around to get him. These Tempest stalling techniques are so ridiculous u_u
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Do not even ask on February 15, 2018, 02:22:41 am
Armored Boots looks like it's just Armor March 1 without the upgrade potential, so why bother wasting a seal slot on it when you can get around just fine with support abilities.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on February 15, 2018, 02:32:30 am
? I haven't unlocked it yet but I'm pretty sure you'll be able to upgrade the seal like all the other seals in the game, and armored boots 3 will be just like armor march 3 (but without the need to be n'est to another armor unit).

Armor march has a white border like Quickened Pulse. It means it can't be upgraded. Compare it to the bronze border on threaten attack.

I wouldn't say it's useless, but it's niche; you'd only really want it for an armor on a mixed movement team, or in case you can't/don't want to run double armor march on an armor team.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

The hardest was the cavalry one for me because it was a pain making the enemy units move into a favourable position after the first move. Cleared all the quests though so yay. I wish they reset for more orbs/merges lol.

Robin looks retardedly broken. Not only did they give him Lightning Breath with no drawbacks, he has access to Vengeful Fighter. I hope he doesn't have the stats to survive more than one Falchion hit. Time to refine Alm's.

Hardin might be pretty good too, but I don't see Celica toppling all the ultra offensive sword infantry.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on February 24, 2018, 09:03:21 am
Takumi GHB is out and Infernal is probably the hardest Infernal to date next to Valter/Legion cause of the reinforcements. Cleared it with Bridelia, Jeorge, Olivia, and Axezura.

Through some trial and error, I had to make sure Bridelia had a Hone Atk buff before engaging the Takumis or she wouldn't have been able to kill both of them in one round. I also had to make Axezura equip the Fortress Res seal to ensure she would survive one of the hits from the healers due to all the chip damage this map loves to dish out.

1. Bridelia/Olivia on the left side of the map while Axezura/Jeorge on the right side.
2. Bridelia kills Sword Fighter and Lance Cavalier while Jeorge takes out the Blue Mage and Bow Cavalier. Jeorge tanks a hit from the Sword Flier and Healer.
3. Bridelia kills Healer and Thief on the left side while hiding at the very left of the map to avoid the Skadi effect. Jeorge kills Sword Flier and repositions away with Axezura. Sakdi effect activates and Axezura tanks a hit from the last Healer.
4. Axezura kills the Healer while Jeorge repositions her out of the way. Olivia dances Jeorge and kills Green Mage.
5. Jeorge kills Red Mage Cavalier while the rest of the team moves to the upper right side corner of the map and made sure Olivia gives Bridelia a Hone Atk buff.
6. Bridelia kills Green Axe Cavalier and the 2 Takumis.

Large Raid-like maps where we have to capture enemy strongholds are coming in the next update. We get to deploy up to 20 units at once while being able to enlist ally units from friends. There are limitations like only one dancer/singer and no duplicate units, but overall I'm excited.

There's also the new Blessed Gardens maps, but you're forced to use Legendary Heroes/Heroes with the corresponding blessings. Not really feeling this one, but information about it is still scarce regarding the mode itself other than it's a more consistent way of gaining blessings of other elements.

New Legendary Weapon for Soren and Weapon upgrades for Eirika and Leo are on their way with the update as well.

While it’s still not 100% confirmed yet, I would like to think the phrasing used here of “deploying up to 20 units” would imply a larger scale battle and they could have easily have gone and just said you could deploy multiple teams much like the descriptions regarding Tempest Trials and Arena Assault. Then again it wouldn’t be the first time something got lost in translation. I’m going to be optimistic, but would be disappointed if it didn’t happen.

I remember Evil Celica not having the disclaimer either. One of the first things I did after watching the trailer for the Fallen Heroes banner was to see if they made mention that Evil Celica wasn't the promised CYL version that won the poll, but nothing was mentioned like Hector.

tbf Sigurd had his 90's anime mullet axed too, so it might just be the art direction wanting to modernize the designs.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on March 08, 2018, 05:21:27 am
It's basically just a guard bow for Blue Mages. Other than Female Morgan (depending on her stats), the only Blue Mages who can fully utilize it properly are Reinhardt and Valentines Lyn due to their good mixed bulk.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on March 08, 2018, 05:43:13 am
Yeah, but we'll get raudrserpent and gronnserpent down the line. Someone like Leo or Sophia could use raudrserpent. If the serpent tomes can be refined just like guard bow, they become a decent alternative to the TA raven sets considering they aren't vulnerable to CA.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on March 08, 2018, 06:48:00 am
The new update is out for Android. The new game modes Rival Domains and Blessed Gardes are playable with the former's larger maps are confirmed to be able to deploy up to 20 units, but can use up to 8 units at once. Weapon upgrades for Soren, Eirika, and Leo are also available.

Soren:
Wind Brand - Built in Chill Atk 3. Refined version gives Owl-Tome effect.

Eirika:
Sieglinde - Built in Hone Atk 3. Refined version gives highest bonuses of allies within 2 spaces to Eirika's stats during combat (If any of your allies are buffed and are within 2 spaces of Eirika, the highest buff of each individual stat will be added to Eirika's).

Leo:
Brynhild - If opponents uses Magic, reduce damage of first hit by 30%. Refined version adds Earth Sweep 3 (similar to Myrrh's Great Flame, except the threshold is >1 Def instead of >5).

EDIT: Derped on Rival Domains description.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on March 08, 2018, 10:19:47 am
It's basically just a guard bow for Blue Mages.
With Owltome effect, which is good. A bit hard to use properly all the time, but good. Derp, I was reading Soren's Wind Brand upgrade, nevermind.
Horse Chrom's Sealed Falchion is just plain broke.
Mirror Stance ! Just what I was looking for to make my Summer Leo worth something.
Leo's Brynhildr boost looks great. I need a hundred more dews (and stones before that) to get it.
This is way too slow.
Uh, Blessed Garden says it gives dew. I need to give someone some blessings... haven't touched that so far.
How do you guys even begin to know what blessing to give who ? Just based on the +2 stat ?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on March 08, 2018, 02:32:53 pm
What I did before I cleared all the gardens was check each map and think of a team that can beat all of them here's what I used to give you an idea.

Water: Fjorm, Reinhardt, Elincia, PA Azura. Hyper offence team with Fjorm there to tank sword units (watch out for Eldigan as he doesn't die to physical hits lol)

Fire: Fallen Robin, Ninian, Adult Tiki, Micaiah: enemy phase team, this team can pretty much tank anything. No Ephraim unfortunately.

Wind: Gunnthrá, LA Roy, Sanaki, Azura. Full offence team with axebreaker/qr Sanaki to invalidate all the greens

Earth: L! Ike, Nephenee, Dorcas, Sonya. Tank team with Sonya crippling enemies with ploys

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on March 08, 2018, 02:55:17 pm
I just ended up putting blessings based on who would benefit the stat bonus the most. Balancing physical and magical damage was as much a headache as always, and I mostly didn't.

Water - spd bonus : Fjorm Camilla B!Lyn Sigurd. Still considering Nephenee, Summer Corrin, Sothe (actually Scorrin' is probably gonna get a spot).
Fire - def bonus : L!Ephraim Laslow Raven and I'm hesitating between Rhajat and Winter Tharja. Still considering Lukas because lately I boosted his attack and lost a bit of def.
Earth - atk bonus : L!Ike Blucina Nowi Fred.
Wind - res bonus : Gunnthra Lilina  Summer Robin Nino. Considering Sonya or Rhajat but that's too much green mage.

I haven't done fire but none of the maps gave me much trouble (that Eldigan surprised me but he went down after a bit), except the one with the wall that circles around in the earth garden where I didn't have any ranged unit. Nowi ended up tanking everything.
It's not much hard, so it's not so bad, you can't afford trial and error like the GHB, I figured I should stay generic instead of planning specific units for specific maps, which I don't like. Minmaxing characters and balancing your team is the name of the game.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Darkflare on March 08, 2018, 08:58:36 pm
I kinda want to pull both Morgans for the sole purpose of putting a 2 Robin - 2 Morgan arena defense team.

I don't know what unit to leave for my friends for rival Domains. I put up my Brave Lance Effie for the moment.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on March 08, 2018, 10:55:32 pm
I changed my lead to Halloween Nowi since she's a seasonal flying mage, which were sorely lacking on my friend list. Might change her for Brave Lucina after I'm done building her since the drive skills are really good on these large maps (ward and goad are even better).

I'd recommend everyone to change their leads to an uncommon unit, preferably one who has rare skills like armor march o hone fliers, because you can't run dupes on Rival Domains.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on March 09, 2018, 04:19:59 am
Here's the teams I used for the Blessed Gardens. I basically just picked characters who would best benefit from the blessings the most.

(https://i.imgur.com/i5XxoBZ.png)

Air: Units with great mixed bulk. With the exception of Gunnthra, all of them can counter regardless of distance and can tank both Physical and Magical damage

Water: Units with high Spd. With the exception of Fjorm, all of the heroes here have a Spd stat of 43+ (with the blessing) which helps them double nearly everything in sight and abuse Desperation as much as possible when their health gets low.

Earth: Units with high Atk, especially those who can utilize a Brave Weapon incredibly well.

Fire: Units with high Def, especially those who can use it to their advantage (like Myrrh).

I'd recommend everyone to change their leads to an uncommon unit, preferably one who has rare skills like armor march o hone fliers, because you can't run dupes on Rival Domains.

I don't really have any one set in stone as my permanent unit yet, but I'll continue to lend out my Bridelia. Though I have been thinking of setting my Santa Chrom who has Distant Counter and Vengeful Fighter. He's really ideal for defending the camps since he can tank everything.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on March 09, 2018, 10:44:04 am
Anyone got anywhere with infernal domain ? How do you even begin to handle 20 enemies that keep pouring out of the thing you have to destroy and need multiple hits each to go down.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Foobs on March 09, 2018, 05:14:23 pm
Horse Emblem x5

The extra movement and easy access to all buffs (but goad cavalry) makes them really shine on this map. Sure, the trenches next to the final fortress suck, but if you make proper use of positioning skills your mages can destroy the fortress in two turns (the problem is cornering your opponent in eight turns or less).

Alternatively you could try leaving infantry tanks camping in the second fortress and stall the enemy, but haven't been able to pull it off.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on March 12, 2018, 10:49:11 am
(In the end I just cheesed it with the higher hitters and mixing colors and got enough points)
The gardens are nice, it feels new to build 4 separate groups with your units, it's better than dumping various emblems in a team and call it a day. Not really sure about rival domains though, the big map is cool and the messy battlefield is okay, but it's a bit overkill in infernal, what with the teleport circle being also a defensive tile. We'll see how that goes if we get new map. It could also be different if it was more defensive.

Uh, updated calendar with 10 summoning focuses coming in the next month. Ugh.
I got king Chrom (Khrom), I'll stop here a bit.

Kagero notwithstanding this banner doesn't look very impressive imo.

Strictly speaking it should be them, but people colloquially refer to cavalry Eirika and other new versions of existing characters as brave heroes. That's dumb and I don't like it.

Word has it there's mention of a Legendary Female Robin in the game's data.

Woo, more weapon refinement ! I'm most interested in Lilina, she's already strong so what could they give her. And maybe Roy and Lloyd won't be so shitty anymore.

edit - looked up what Forblaze is, if she gains advantage on Dragons and mayyybe all fliers, it's not much of a big deal. Dragons are getting stronger with the two versions of Grima and a new color, but dragons and fliers are still nowhere near the meta, at least not yet - Micaiah's and Caeda's anti-armor/horse is much better. I like my +res Bolganone+ so far, we'll see if she also gains stats with Forblaze. Not expecting her atk to rise any more than that, having a type advantage on top of 58 atk is already bonkers.

I'm not expecting new modes since we got tap battle, gardens and domains in a row, but they can talk about how well that's being received, and maybe discuss the rewards. Other than modes, I guess system stuff, gameplay update (like when they introduced seals and inheritance). Then there's some weapon upgrade and banners.

Lloyd's weapon refinement being tailor made to fit with Nino is a pretty cute detail.

I was kind of expecting that when we got a banner for her out of nowhere when she barely appeared in the story (normally you get the unit when they become visible in a fight in the story), then when she kept appearing as a vision only even though she was already playable, and finally when she straight up said you were the one who was gonna have to do the whatever ceremony even though she had one half of the artifacts for it and you had to meet her to get it. That's just a whole bunch of "not playable in the story" flags in a row.
From a gameplay point of view, she was the first to introduce the chill skills mechanic, and they've been going full force on mass debuff skills since then, so that was nice, they used her as a test subject.

They hijacked the Veronica storyline with the big fire guy, then they immediately cut that fight short by running away to snow land, so far this doesn't have a great track record in ending someone's storyline, we have to end Bruno's story, Veronica's story, the fire guy's story (because you just know we'll be going to fire land after snow land) and Fjorm's story (it'll probably be enough for her to repel the fire people and then she'll just stick around doing nothing in your army while you attack fire land). And then finally we have to end the actual story of what really pushed Veronica to open all those portals at the very beginning, because that's coming too some day, and somehow I don't see how big fire guy has anything to do with that even though they tried to hint at it, that was most likely just a distraction.
They make story sequences but they don't make it big, actually telling a lot of story, only giving out little bits at a time to move over to the next big thing.

I have to admit though, the story is starting to get interesting/better at the very least. It certainly has been gaining my attention ever since Book 2 started.

Also they really need to get rid of the teleporting mechanic in Rival Domains or at the very least implement a cooldown period before the enemy army sends in their next wave of reinforcements, it's getting completely ridiculous and frustrating at higher levels. Even the lower difficulties are getting on my nerves.

Aaaand new blessing map is bullshit. My strongest red and green mages can't one-shot Summer Robin and Tiki, one of my best axes can't survive their attack because they'll double me. They'll just keep raising the difficulty until most people can't keep up or waste all their blessings trying out different tactics, won't they.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on April 15, 2018, 03:46:00 pm
I used Winter Tharja to bait and take out Summer Tiki, while I had Male Grima on the right side taking out Summer Robin and the Thief.

If you don't have any units similar to those two, I would suggest try using a Brave Weapon user with an appropriate breaker to ensure a kill (Luna and Death Blow will help).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 15, 2018, 03:54:54 pm
Yeah, but what bothers me is that you have to keep shuffling around the units you give blessings to. I already gave another blessing to Winter Tharja, and apparently I'm going to need to keep changing them to fit the map of the week, rather than what I was initially hoping for - just build a steady sub-army with their own abilities. No, I always need the very best in this particular map, just like with the usual GHB stuff, and too bad if I already put him somewhere else.
Compare this to GHB and BHB, they removed the stamina cost for those so we could keep trying new strategies and that was really nice, but here, we still have a limited number of blessings to give around so trying different strategies is going to drain my resources way too fast.

edit - oh lol right I forgot they even want us to complete GHB with specific blessing teams. I'm not even doing those, that is so bad.

Yeah, I'm not a fan either since I'm pretty stingy with my blessings as well. Was having a hard time using my Fire and Wind Blessings team while doing the Arvis GHB, but refused to reallocate my blessings to accommodate the map.

Other than giving us more blessings, the way IS is trying to remedy this by releasing more Legendary Heroes which have a different combination of element and stat buffs (like how Female Grima has a Spd buff despite being an Earth Hero) isn't exactly f2p friendly either.

Corrin. His weapon is one of the strongest personal weapons ever and in Heroes it's darting blow 2. I think they must have made a mistake as his artwork has the base form Yato but the sprite looks like the Omega version.

Pffhahaha that new infantry green bow Lyn is just ridiculous. Fucking powercreep.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on April 27, 2018, 10:52:26 am
Not really, her stats are slightly above average for an Infantry Archer. Her unique skills are good, but nothing game breaking since the buffs it provides are situational which can be tedious to set up properly. Also one of the greatest advantages a Colorless Archer had was the ability to disregard the weapon triangle since they would always be doing normal damage outside of Raven Tome users. With Legendary Lyn being a green unit she's unaffected by the current Bow Breaker skill, but can be completely shut down by tanky Red units.

All in all, if you already have a Brave Lyn there isn't a need to roll for her and as much as I like Lyn as a character, even I'm starting to get tired of all the alts she's been getting lately.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 27, 2018, 11:03:23 am
She gets +9 atk spd (up from 31/36 base stats before IV) and +4 def res when she has 2 allies close by, before tactic skills which they're really pushing for.
I'm not really bothered by the colored bow thing. It doesn't change much from the current wta, this is a ranged physical attack with the triangle, that's all. Just imagine a mage with the same stats/skills. 40 atk before weapon, 45 spd, then add IVs and (other units') tactics.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on April 27, 2018, 11:17:11 am
It only procs if she has more allies than enemies next to her within a 2 space radius. If what the description saying is true, the buffs won't activate if she's all alone or there are a lot of enemies next to her.

EDIT: Referring to Swift Mulagir.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 27, 2018, 11:20:32 am
That's not an issue. That's what they're pushing for with the tactic skills, people will get used to planning around it. Maybe someday the owl tomes will get better too.

Edit to your edit - the A skill is the same too, it's all based on the tactics skills. They want you to fill your teams with that, and attack in a group. Unless it's Legendary Ephraim (and I'm sure we'll see more of that too, splitting the meta in two different approaches).
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on April 27, 2018, 12:07:46 pm
Laws of Sacae triggers from what you said: there needs to be at least 2 allies within 2 spaces of her for the skill to activate. Swift Mulagir while similar, takes enemy count into consideration before activating. Her kit really synergizes well with buffing her allies while buffing her in the process when they're in the vicinity and while I do agree people will get accustomed to it, I can see it being a hindrance somewhat to utilize her from time to time considering she really needs the buffs as her Atk and defensive bulk are moderately low.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on April 27, 2018, 01:25:40 pm
Legendary Ephraim does the opposite, he needs enemy count > ally count to activate his weapon buff (I can't remember what it is right now). We'll be pushed to learn to send the right units in a bunch or separated to harass targets, in a group or alone, to bait some enemies one way and gang up on others.

A Lyn Emblem team can now have red, green, blue and colourless. I'm curious to see how coloured bows will turn out. In Lyn's case the common blues she's gonna be targeting float around the 35-30 defence range.

After hearing all the Golden Week plans I decided to roll on the Wings of Fate Banner again (after getting Kana in a few orbs) and got Hinoka and a Linde.

Wow. Well, it'll be for one unit only most of the time, because it's rare to use more than one bonus unit with a good merge and arena rating. We'll see how that goes...
Curious about Camilla's axe, she's already my best unit by a long shot (5*+6 monster stats), I wonder what kind of broken weird effect she'll get. (Now I need an extra Cam fast... nevermind I already have a 5* Camilla)

Post by: Byakko on May 08, 2018, 04:06:12 pm
Another broken weapon. Ares' Draconic Aura deals 53 damage up from 36 on a colorless unit, so that's 59 atk, with a special that basically triggers 100% of the time except the very first combat, which pretty much puts his atk at a flat 76 beside that first attack.
Safeguard+ is nice !
Vantage looks like a bad synergy with that Mjolnir and Swift Sparrow and Odd Atk Wave is odd in more than one way just weird. Well, a C skill that also boosts the unit itself is really nice, but once every two turns ?
So who's the axe guy that'll be the next GHB / tempest reward ? edit - is that a character from a previous game or is it maybe a new boy from team Surtr ? edit again nevermind the notification says the GHB will be Julius, another mage.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

I hope Eldigan gets that Dark Mystletainn. This weapon + distant counter + vantage means that Ares could respond with Draconic aura every fight. If he's impossible to kill with physical hits (without a special proc) like Eldigan then getting into vantage range will be easy.

Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on May 20, 2018, 10:30:31 pm
There's no element synergy. Blessings are only required on specific maps and quests, and you'll spend your time trying to figure out the  proper team to bring for that map/quest and then waste blessings passing them around to the team you need. Remember how you need to build a specific team to beat a GHB ? There are quests that require you to do that with teams full of a specific blessing.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Erroratu on May 21, 2018, 02:05:00 pm
Aight man thanks
So basically waste 4 blessings to enter a map and then re-bless accordingly once you know what awaits you?Nice.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on May 21, 2018, 02:20:59 pm
You can pray your initial 4 will be enough for that map, you'll have enough blessings to keep a "main" team with as good a synergy as possible and then add more as needed, but you'll probably get stuck at some point, changing blessings on specific units (thus completely wasting them). GHB quests are easier since you can do them for free.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

I got the 4 Star Groom Marth. I have a few questions for you all about the Tempest Trials.

-What units are you using for your main runs?
-If you do Lunatic 5 or higher, how do you handle units like Fallen Robin & Hardin who have DC and strong mixed bulk?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on May 25, 2018, 04:02:15 pm
Since I got nothing on the banner and the other bonus units are pretty bad (I don't have Sanaki), I do the top floor only for the triple points runs to get a bit more points, and the rest of the time I just do two floors below.
I don't really manage those strong units, I just send my survivor tank team of Lukas, Valentine Hector and Leif, with Tharja, and I just expect to lose that team somewhere down the line and I finish it with my cavalry onslaught team.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Do not even ask on May 25, 2018, 10:02:45 pm
Generally I just run Tharja and any 3 units I want to level up to 40. I don't bother with Lunatic 7 anymore, doing that twice every day was a huge slog

Almost any refined Falchion user oneshots M!Grima to my experience. Haven't been unlucky enough to run into a Hardin yet, but any bulky green unit or Cherche should be able to handle him.

Thanks to Flying Ryoma, he helped me decide to use my orbs on the Bridal banner. Was even able to pull a perfect IV Sanaki who was the last Bride unit I was missing on my first summon.

Seriously though, because of his base kit he's incredibly reliant on using up his Sacred Seal slot for Iote's Shield. It also doesn't help that his skills overall are incredibly vanilla even for his unique one which is just a Wo Dao effect.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

Yeah, weapons these days have two effects, I don't see why they didn't rename it to Something Raijinto and added the Wo Dao effect on it.

Glad to see the seals, skills, level up etc. Will be streamlined. It's always a pain in any RPG-based games to switch between so many screens to do the same things.
All that's left is retaining the sort options per screen. Keep the sort by "obtained" in the "send home" menu tyvm.

Ryoma has incredible offense but oddly enough the Raijinto is the least impressive part of his kit. He can't enemy phase because he lacks the bulk to do so. Best to give him wo dao for +20 true damage procs.

I'm gonna try to skip as many banners as possible up until CYL. Even though I could do with some Fjorm merges.

Got Lucky on the last Hour of the legendary banner and got him. Now to wait on cool stuff....

Edit: Update is in, Everyone gains a stat boost when near certain units, but both Tiki's lose the thing that makes them good and you have to have a Distant Counter in the A slot if you're running Breath of Fog Counter. The plus side is that you basically make them Dragon Killers, and Both of Linde and Merric don't get much other than the stat boost that I said earlier....

Also F!Grima is absolutely adorable with Bruno's mask.

I’m actually kind of mad Titania is getting a unique weapon. I just fed Gerome to her for Poleaxe+ to match the awesome art she’s got. Whelp RIP Batman...

Also she’s a really good Mage check with her high base Spd and Res, she’s a staple on my Horse Emblems because of it. It’s too bad she’s kind of reliant on Distant Counter to fully make use of her niche.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]

Oh yeah, I for got about that niche. She does it really well, but not many people would go out of their way to make her good though.

Edit: I might not have gotten Hector, but I did get Legendary Ephriam and a few other things.

I'd be livid cause I gave her Distant Counter, but I honestly doubt they'd be giving her weapon one. If they passed the opportunity of giving Distant Counter to Roy and Zephiel with their refines then I doubt they would give it to anyone else.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on July 04, 2018, 01:58:50 pm
I'm sure they skipper Roy and Zephiel because they want it to still be a premium super rare skill. But I don't know how they'll pull Titania out of the gutter without that.

Funny you say that, mine's is a bit better for it being -HP,+SPD, but yeeeaaasssshhhh....the only thing I can think of is using an Attack+3 seal and going from there with making him a distant counter sponge, and even then you must build a team based on that.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on July 05, 2018, 10:48:58 am
I was able to luckily pull 2 Legendary Hectors within the same summoning session with one of them even being +Atk. Now the hard part is choosing whether or not to merge, fodder off for Distant Counter, or fodder off for Vengeful Fighter...

I also got a Legendary Ephraim...too bad he's Hp+/Atk-, though, and I have no intention on getting a better version of him, so...please tell me how I can possibly salvage that :(

Since his main gimmick is being able to do guaranteed follow up attacks if he's alone, his Sturdy Stance will do just fine or if you want to make him into a player phase unit just slap on Death Blow along with an Atk seal.

If you care about Arena score and such, then merge your L Hectors. If not then give to whoever lol.
I decided to make the most of the bait banner with Matthew and Hector and got a regular Hector. I am now saving all my premium fodder units (F Morgan, LA Lyn, Brave Ike, Dorcas, Winter Lissa, Takumi) until CYL2.

Even with -Atk, you're still getting 52 Atk at L40, 56 with Sturdy Stance; nothing to sneeze at. I think he excels best as an enemy phase physical sponge with decent sustain, so a Close Def seal would be probably better than an Atk seal IMO.

The calendar says that another special heroes banner in August. Last year the main banners with new units in August were the Sacred Stones and CYL heroes (there was hero fest 2 as well but...). CYL is not considered a "special hero" banner because those heroes are always available.
With a new banner this week and two crazy good bait banners later this month I hope we get an influx of f2p orbs.

FEH Channel direct in a bit.

Edit: FEH Direct Highlights:

More Awakening heroes: Libra with Wo Gun, Maribelle with Trilemma+ (puts on Tri Adept to nearby enemies), Sumia (PRAISE JEEBUS) with Reprisal Lance, and finally flyer Olivia with a sword weapon like PA Azura.... AND WALHART COMING AS A GRAND HERO BATTLE LATER ON!

A FEH Summer Celebration featuring Orbs, returning special banners with unit skills, Reward Maps, and a special Tempest Trials where you can get all the some of the older units as prizes.

The Big Update featuring tweaks to Grand Conquest, A new rank to Arena which gives you a crown when you get it (also Feh wears one as well!), and the Askr Trio FINALLY getting refines to their weapons (Alponse gets Attack and Defense buff when under 80% health and Refine gives him Tri Adept 2, Sharena gets the ability to attack foes as if they don't have any buffs, refine gives her Speed/Defense Bond, and Anna gets Escape Route for low health and refine gives her Escape Route for high health meaning she can warp next to anyone now)

Also a new event coming called Forging Bonds featuring the new Banner Heroes, you battle on maps to get affection points for the heroes and when you get to a new level you get a prize (you can even get a accessory from them) you get more points for wearing accessories on your heroes when you battle.

I for one welcome Sumia and Walhart with open arms.

Uh, dancers everywhere and colored daggers.
Ryoma is still short on both atk and spd even though he's supposed to hit fast and hard but chill def makes it better (still not that easy to double high tier units), Xander has decent atk+def and close counter, Micaiah still seems to be top tier mage, Elincia has... nothing.
But the story is actually starting to throw backstories about dragons, with a mention that Askr has them too. Will it finally go somewhere ?

That's the thing about the side stories, most of the time they are light-hearted and sometimes they give us nuggets of info like this. I like the dagger dancers, they fill in the niche of dancer while they can also defend themselves a little bit. But I do hope that it's revealed that the Embla royal family are descended from the dragon of Embla and the curse is there until a worthy successor of power can finally control the power.

Good to see the paralogues expanding on the stories from the other games.

I feel like all the units besides Micaiah should switch up their weapons.
-Ryoma should have Elincia's so he can be the one unit who hard counters the Tikis
-Xander should have Ryoma's because he has the bulk to fight armor units
-Elincia should have Xander's because most cavalry are easy to kill even with low attack

Yeah, all I got was a +def-res Micaiah (I'm really feeling that this game's gacha also includes a rate of success for terrible IVs vs good ones).
Speaking of rolls, I haven't rolled a lot in the last few months and I gave the last legendary banner a few tries and I was surprised, the 5*s seemed to roll out much more often than usual, even though it's barely an increase of 2% at the base rate compared to the usual 3+3% (focus and non-focus). I got, like one 5* at least every 2 x5 rolls a bunch of times in a row, compared to having 0 5* in like 6 x5 rolls in most banners.

Ok guys, here's the thing. All of them are gooooooood units, and it's just your idea of what you need. Need a damn good mounted healer that can defend herself? Veronica. Need a strong axe armor that can attack on the fly and help other armors? Epriham. If for some reason you still don't have that really good sword unit, and you want someone with brave power? Celica, which by the way shocked me by giving her that sweet gaiden look. And if you just want a powerhouse of a blue armor unit, get Hector because damn, he brings in the best of everything about him and jacks it up to absurd levels....not to mention he can get about 63 attack if buffed right. A solid round of CYL this year, and you won't go wrong with any choice.

I stand by my Elise (even though I did merge her a little bit, and gave her really good skills for her BST) if left unchecked, she can take out a few mages and those with weak resistance. But what healer worth their salt would go and attack units all willy nilly? Someone who can weaken them for the army that's who! I will admit that Veronica should only fight units as a last resort because she has very weak DEF and RES (also doesn't help that she's a cavalier).

Slap a dazzling staff on her (if you have one lying around somehow) and the AOE buff + AOE debuff on her weapon will take care of the rest.
edit - oh wait... she already has dazzling staff built-in on her weapon on top of the aoe buff+debuff. Yeah, together with wrathful staff, that's basically the one way staves can begin to work.

First time I play the game in months. Sharena gives a special welcoming if you drop the game for a good while (the cunt tries to guilt trip you).

lol these units look busted as fuck. So this Hector (holy shit four Hectors already) basically bends you over and fucks you up in the ass with a massive Ignis no matter which phase you chose to engage him?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Byakko on August 22, 2018, 06:58:55 am
with a massive Ignis no matter which phase you chose to engage him?
I mean, Ares could do that already. Well, with only 36 def and not 43 (47 on defense), sure, but technically, we've seen that before - in fact he had the atk variation of that, with Draconic Aura and 55 atk (with a +atk IV), up to 62 with his Brazen atk/def for about 80 damage (before defense), and then add his seal def on top of that. Someone not blue with 40 def and 40 HP will still die in one hit. This level of broken was already there.

Currently with the new stuff, I'm wishing for a "damsel in distress" B skill to put on someone like Veronica with her dazzling staff and aoe debuff. Like granting WoM to everyone else for the user, anyone can teleport next to her, she debuffs everyone and can't get countered, then someone else comes in and finishes the job. It would be pretty much the only way to defeat someone like this new Hector without a Brave Lyn + (any green mage) combo.

I think blue tome Micaiah can one shot Brave Hector on an odd numbered turn.

I went with Celica for the free summon since I don't have an infantry unit that can really walk up and facefuck everything. Skipped on Hector since I already have enough armored units, but I kinda wish I took a closer look at his kit to realize how borked he is.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on December 28, 2018, 10:22:01 am
It's been a while, but I think this is really important news that it actually requires some notification. To those who still play this game, IS is actually revamping the whole boon/bane system.

In an upcoming update, having a merge on any unit will cancel any bane they may have had while the boon remains intact. For example if you happened to have pulled a character who had a boon in Res and a bane in Atk, maxing out that character and applying a merge onto them will grant them +3 (or +4 if it was a super bane) to Atk effectively neutralizing the bane while keeping the boon. Those with neutral IVs will gain 1 point to their 3 highest stats.

This change is actually great and basically makes every character viable regardless of their IVs without fear of the game reducing their more important stats while still increasing one of them. However you will still need an additional copy of said character if you want to get rid of their bane if they had one to begin with which can be quite trying on 5* exclusive Heroes.

...Even then I still think this game is hot garbage as the powercreep and continuous alts of the same characters runs rampant.

This is a good fix to all the units I've gotten with bad ivs. I can't count the number of times I've missed a kill because of an atk bane.
I spent all my orbs and no Azura. But I got Fjorms for merging so that's always good.

Wtf is this? The first beast unit we get and his A skill already power creeps like 5 of them.

Sturdy Impact/Sturdy Blow 4
When unit initiates combat it grants:
- +6 Atk
- +10 Def
- Prevents enemy from using a follow up attack

I thought Death Blow 4 and Fortress Def/Res 3 was too much, but that was nothing compared to Steady Stance 4. Then they release this monster of a skill. They continue to impress me even more with how much they power creep so fast with every single new banner!

Quote
Matsushita: Of course power creep is something we’re concerned about. But we are taking action to prevent that from happening. I think you’ll see some of that in future updates. While I can’t go into what those future updates are at this time, I do want to let you know that we understand that people love Fire Emblem characters, and we do want to respect the feelings those fans have towards those characters.

Fuck this game.

Post by: Byakko on January 09, 2019, 12:15:37 pm
At least if there was a way to forge these skills on your own, but no, you need to roll these specific units to get them. And you need to roll one for every unit you want to give that skill to.
Other games use material collection to build up your characters, and then give new game modes to collect specific material, but looking at seal forge and how stupid hard it is to get silver coins, they can't do that right. How many seals do you guys still have left to max out ? And then they come up with aether raid that gives aether stones that are entirely useless outside of that mode.
This has just been circling the drain ever since the blessing system, a closed loop that's only useful for itself, and that you can't even properly build teams around because the bonus changes with the character instead of the blessing type so the blessing system immediately negates its own point (giving a fixed blessing to someone is useless because the stat bonus will change with the partner you use, so this actually severely limits the teams you can make). "Closed loop" game modes are just bad design. Why even play aether raid beyond getting the pity grails ? (Which need a month and a half before you can even use them anyway)

Post by: Koop on January 09, 2019, 07:18:45 pm
It just feels like a massive grind. The whole game.

-With all these new skills with the nasty yellow borders, you need to fodder off at least two units to inherit them. If you want Sturdy Impact, you need to fodder off a unit with armored or death blow 1, then Sturdy Blow 1, 2 and impact off Tibarn. You can't get Distant Counter and Null C-Disrupt 3 from Nailah without getting two copies of her.
-Aether Raids is just a mess. It's just a guessing game. There's this one guy who's stream I watched yesterday (who's always talking about the "math" to FEH) and he had to surrender because he guessed wrong stepping on a trap.
-Having to use bonus units to get kills in Arena isn't too bad, until you're forced to take on Surtr with Sharena. Also If you know your team can fight 740+ battles why does the game prioritise giving you the lowest score range 90% of the time? It just makes you waste crests if you want to score high.
-PVE content. You do it once and never again.
-Summoning. If you want a specific unit from a banner you need at least 400 orbs if you are unlucky.

The thing I don't get with the new red flyboy is, when he attacks, his weapon makes him double the enemy, and his A skill prevents the enemy from doubling him - so when he attacks, the entire SPD stat just stops existing. (also, anyone remembered that Wary Fighter was a thing that existed and was also power-crept by that skill and not just for armors ?)
Skills like Chill / Dull allowed to really affect your odds against the biggest threat on the map and they were getting a lot more widespread with the recent banners filled with Chill weapons, but now we're just making a whole stat obsolete regardless of who is facing who, as long as you're attacking ? Is that how they're going to make it possible to have like 5 on one specific stat, to justify putting another stat in the 50s before any other boost ?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on January 10, 2019, 08:23:46 am
In some good news, at least the new refines for Tailtiu, Julia, and Deirdre are incredibly good. Seliph, not so much.

Tailtiu
- Base version adds Wrath 3
- Unique refine adds Darting Blow 3

Julia
- Base refine adds Steady Posture 2 (upgraded from vanilla version's Steady Posture 1)
- Unique refine negates adaptive damage from dragons, negates Wrathful Staff skills, and adds Close Counter when Dragons attack

Deirdre
- Base refine negates adaptive damage from all enemies, while still negating all forms of visible buffs during battle
- Unique refine adds Res check that increases her all of her stats by 3 during combat if her Res is +3 or higher than her opponent.

Seliph
- Base refine adds Miracle effect when his HP is over 50% when struck with an otherwise fatal blow (removed +4 Def effect from vanilla version)
- Unique refine adds Atk/Def Bond 3

I already blew out my hoarded Divine Dew just to refine Julia's, Deirdre's, and Tailtiu's weapons. It was actually quite unfair that Julia and her mom basically got dicked on their niche when facing dragons because of their adaptive damage, but now they're a hard counter again.

I'm so glad that I didn't end up feeding my spare Eir to Julia for Mystic Boost and gave it to Alm instead.


Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on January 10, 2019, 10:18:23 am
Yeah I knew not to give Mystic Boost to Julia. I knew she'd get that effect sooner or later. I thought about Seliph's effect and realised he could do miracle vengeance like in Awakening and Fates. Because of his obscene amount of hp he could do up to 25 damage procs (35 with wrath).
On a slightly related note Hel's Scythe has the miracle effect but she just needs to have more than 1 hp to activate the effect. With Mystic boost she could have infinite miracle.

(also, anyone remembered that Wary Fighter was a thing that existed and was also power-crept by that skill and not just for armors ?)

If the unit doesn't have any skills that guarantee or deny follow ups then yeah. Best thing to do is not let him attack you. If he attacks someone with a qr effect, both skills will be negated and the follow ups will be based on the spd stat.
However let's say Zelgius has Wary Fighter (to slow down fights in AR or somthing) and Tibarn has sword breaker. The follow up from his weapon and wary fighter cancel each other out but the sword breaker effect is still active granting Tibarn the follow up.
Wary Fighter still has its uses besides that drawback I just mentioned. I use Effie as one of my Arena cheerleaders and she can block The Reinhardt's lance breaker because she has more speed than him. It's also useful for setting up bonus kills. If you have that giant a-hole he can literally tank everything while weakening the enemy.

EDIT looks like only infantry and fliers can use sturdy impact

Post by: Koop on January 21, 2019, 11:09:09 am
I like Camilla so I'm totally okay with a free alt. It's now possible to make a full Camilla team in Aether Raids.

-Ryoma: attack def solo is nice and the new lance would be great on someone like Effie who could charge a massive damage special in no time. (Abs of steel)
-Elise: BONUS DUCKS. This is a way for fast ninja (hmph, only Legault really) to get some nice damage when attacking since the bonus damage can't be reduced by def. Atk feint is good.
-Sakura: More special charging shenanigans and Spd Opening is useful since boosting speed to 6+ is the most expensive right now.
-Hinoka: Best colour for killing dragons. Her kit is the same as NY Fyorm mostly but once again Hinoka has a coveted flier skill.

Nobody has posted here since the CYL voting? Okay then.

So for CYL3 we are getting Alm, Eliwood, Micaiah and Camilla.

-I don't know if Alm won because he was popular or because he didn't have any alts. I expect a Legendary Alm alt before the Brave Heroes banner.
-Eliwood has always been the third wheel of the Lyn/Hector duo so I'm kinda surprised he took second
-Micaiah is great, there's a lot they can do with her but I think most people just rallied to vote for her so that....
-Camilla wouldn't take first place! Robbed again. Unlike other alts, the Brave Heroes don't just powercreep the originals so I wonder what they will do with her. I want her to have Bölverk but I doubt that will happen.

Tellius Valentines Banner. None of the armor units have 179-180 bst as expected. Seems what they are doing now is just making 300sp skills instead of raising the stat ceiling higher

-Ike has crazy good stats he doesn't need any SI besides an assist
-Greil is boring slow green armor. But the only f2p friendly alternative is Sheena who almost has less attack than an unarmed neutral Greil you can't really go wrong.
-Mist and Soren are kinda weird, using those defensive tomes with cavalry is just weird since you can't make the most of either.
-Titania's art is lovely and a free red cav is nice. Ditch those flowers and give her a blade tome



Keaton has DIRE WOLF (someone will get that reference) and all the other units look cool. Kaden and Selkie are cavalry so they'll have three movement. And Panne GHB because there's nowhere to put her on their schedule lol

Post by: Kohaku~★ on February 18, 2019, 01:41:06 pm
I still the play the game, but not gonna lie I really don't like how it's being handled at the moment. They need to delete Aether Raids for starters and stop with the excessive power creep.

The Dragon Flowers are a nice way to bring older units back up to par (somewhat), until you realize that you can't get anymore until IS releases more units of a particular movement type and not to mention YOU NEED TO PULL THEM SO YOU CAN CLEAR THEIR HEROIC ORDEALS. They're low-key trying to strong arm you into summoning new units you may or may not get due to lol gacha or alternatively you can git gud in cancer Aether Raids

I just hate how this game has become incredibly competitive with a lot of highly sought resources being gated through ranking in PvP oriented modes. This is why I basically gave up trying on Arena/Aether Raids and completely ignore Arena Assault (I don't even remember the last time I did one).

I got used to play only Arena and Tempest for refining stones and silver coins and that's it. Now I got a bunch of stones that I'm not using because everything worth something needs dew and I don't have the will to upgrade shit weapons to get dew, and coins are still way too slow to pile up. So I still play just those modes because habits, but I don't actually make use of what I get from it. And I'm not even bothering with grails because there's no one in that pool that I really really want at +10. Surtr is so awful to fight in Arena I don't even care to try to face him in Aether.
The only thing I actually need anymore are the universal shards and crystals to quickly level up new units without bothering with the training tower.

I'm actually surprised y'all hate aether raids. Honestly I like it much more than arena and the fact you can create your own custom maps make it great imo. Units like surtr and dragons can be hard to handle at times but you build a unit that can deal with him and/or other powerful greens. Lilina imo is a great choice. Dragon flowers are kinda meh rn tbh. If it wasn't as grindy then I'll probably support it, having it as an aether raids reward is pretty dumb though. they should have a reset for heroic trials and probably make better maps or add new ones for more flowers. oh yeah I should probably show off my lilina

AR pretty much emphasizes the biggest problems this game has mainly how bad the powercreeping is and how you need to summon more just to progress and keep up while focusing on the PvP modes.

The problem isn't the mode itself; on paper it's a great idea, but in practice it's just one big shit show. If you want to be competent in Aether Raids it literally strong arms you into pulling for more units (aka Mythic Heroes) so that you can even keep up in the rankings.

That being said, it wouldn't be so bad if that was all, but the fact that important resources like Dragon Flowers and Heroic Grails can only be gained through here (outside of events and even then the amount given is pitiful) based on your ranking is basically the icing on this shit cake.

Recap of last FEH Channel:
(https://i.redd.it/2b54m5utedq21.gif)

Personally I'm indifferent regarding the changes to the summoning pool, but for the love of god they should stop adding a ton of 5*s every couple of weeks and actually just start releasing base 3* and 4* characters with their own rate ups.

Overall this game is still a fucking mess (especially with Cancer Raids still being a thing). Every time I want to try and drop some money on some new units I get reminded how poorly IS is handling the game and immediately stop myself. Nintendo needs to step in like they apparently did with Dragalia Lost and tell them to tone down on the money grubbing/pay to win modes like with the upcoming Strategic Alliances or whatever the hell it was called since it'll also be using the Arena-based scoring system where highly merged units with high BST (basically armors) will reign supreme in terms of scoring. MEANING ONCE AGAIN VALUABLE RESOURCES WILL BE GATED THROUGH RANKING UNLESS YOU COUGH UP THAT MONEY FOR THOSE HIGH BST UNITS WITH THOSE PREMIUM SKILLS!

As someone who always gets pity broken going for new units I'm okay with the decemation of the Gen 1 5 stars. All the people who dislike this change act as if they can summon off focus Takumi and Hector on demand (more than Likely you'll get someone with no fodder like Nanna or Libra).

-Their attempt to shill Aether Aids non stop has backfired since competitive people will save their orbs/money for the Astra Mythic hero likely due in May.

-That said, by making Book 1 5 stars more desirable makes me think they'll make a bunch of three person banners.

-RD banner looks neat. Armor Beasts getting the best transform bonus but since Caineghis is the only armor beast he can't have both armor buffs and beast transformation. Free Haar soon yay!

Yeah building her up makes me see that she can benefit from a flier team and you can replace the a skill with something else. Overall, her stats are middle of the road and she can give others dragon-killer status with her c skill, unless you really want her i'd suggest pulling for somebody else on the banner.

So Rokkr Sieges is out...and wtf, I'm actually having fun again with this game....!? It's not the proper raid mode that I wanted, but it's a step in the right direction. Now I wish there was actually more emphasis on the co-op aspect as it only affects the bonus damage done at the end.

Also why the hell does this so-called "cooperative" game mode still have a competitive ranking system? Albeit it's only a small amount of feathers, but can IS seriously lay off with rewards being gated through ranking for like 5 minutes?

I so agree on a lot of things you said! This game mode is fun, rewards through the ranking is still crap, and even though it's not true co-op I can still appreciate what they did.

On other notes, did anybody get any of the new child units? I managed to get Nah and she's really damn good and she's -ATK, +HP. You can actually build her up a multitude of ways and she can still kick butt.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on June 27, 2019, 01:32:03 pm
I also got Nah with +def -res. I kinda wish she had DC built in her weapon but stopping follow ups while buffed is really good. With enough speed buffs she can even block bold fighter.

...so is M!Byleth a TT/GHB unit then?
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Kohaku~★ on July 19, 2019, 12:28:38 pm
I'm pretty sure Male Byleth will be on a separate banner since you will be able to get him for free if you redeem your purchase of Three Houses through your My Nintendo account. It'd be kind of stupid if had to do all this, yet were able to get him for free through Tempest/GHB without needing to buy the game.

But hey since you know gacha is gacha, maybe spending around $60 for a free copy of M!Byleth isn't such a bad deal after all. At least you'd get a game out of it instead of the amount of salt you'd probably get if you spent that money on orbs and getting nothing.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: Koop on July 19, 2019, 11:38:16 pm
I'm like...I dunno 97% sure people are buying Three Houses for Three Houses and not the Byleth bonus. Wording it like that makes it sound like the game is the bonus reward~ :P

I think he'll be on another banner. I don't think he'll be a Mythic Hero (but if he is he better have that whip animation as a finisher) but he may appear on that banner after which he'll enter the red pool. But if they do that it might put off people who have bought 3H and don't want to merge him since they run the risk of using up all their orbs and getting him instead of the other two reds.

Monster Clown Alolan Peri Kronya is gonna be the next GHB. I hope she gets a good artist.
Title: Re: Fire Emblem Heroes [iOS/Android]
Post by: R565 on August 01, 2019, 04:54:58 pm
Been a minute but...

Yup, Sothis is the next Mystic Hero in her illusion form, and you can get M!Byleth from this banner (I got him on my first pull).
From the looks of it, she has a good set for what she is, and she is what I like to call a self-sufficient attack unit since her special heals her and gets buff when she's alone.
Overall, this is a good banner since both versions of Byleth have similar builds and a lot of good units are on this banner already.

New FEH Channel came out today with news regarding the 2.5 anniversary events, new Lost Lore mode (glorified expedition mode from other games), and CYL3 information.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm actually considering picking up Queen Camilla as my freebie...

Cancer Raids is still in the game unfortunately...

Also Julia is the new Legendary Hero appearing this month from a leaked image.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on August 04, 2019, 08:16:28 am
This is what I went with. She can easily go up to an effective 65 Atk (unbuffed) on enemy phase if the enemy is debuffed from Athame which is the reason why I chose Glimmer over Moonbow. Not gonna lie, she's a pretty fun unit.

Must be nice to have orbs. I try my best to save only to spend the hundreds I saved up on banners I had initially had no interest in like the current TMS banner.

I at least got a +Atk Tsubasa, +Res Kiria, and a +Spd Sirius for all the trouble...

I haven't seen this thread in a while. I still play (and still waiting for the guy in my avatar to be released as a GHB) and I see a Kronya build very similar to the one I use. I also use glimmer since it scales better. I tried saving a lot of orbs but then I saw how hard Kiria hits and needed to get her. :P

Choose your Legends 4 is underway and it looks like it's gonna be all FE16 (or 17 if you believe Sakurai and not Fire Emblem lol)

The key is willpower. I have enough self restraint to ignore the lame banners and only go for the ones I really want.

Wonder how long until you guys quit again because the powercreeping leaping is still ridiculous. I pretty much quit before the end of the year once I realized I stopped doing the events altogether on top of said powercreeping leaping.

I never really quit the game. I was still playing albeit not as much.

Post by: Kohaku~★ on February 02, 2020, 06:15:00 am
To be honest the subscription service itself isn’t bad, I mean plenty of other games do it. What bugs me is that some of features that should have been in the game to begin with or otherwise introduced as an QoL update is locked behind a paywall. Another thing is that you actually have to work for the additional resources (orbs, divine codes, etc.) that subscription offers you through quests rather than just giving them outright through a login like most other games.

The price should have been $5 instead, but I’m probably still going drop $10 for this month just so I can get that really awesome skin for Lyn and Cordelia, especially the latter since I really wasn’t fond of her original artwork.

My Cordelia is +10 and this upgrade will finally make her arena worthy without killing my only L!Azura for B Duel. The stat boost means she'll be 170 bst after one merge meaning she doesn't need the arena skill to max score.

My Cordy is only +5 at the moment since most of my feathers have been going towards my current merge project: Mage Tank Sigrun. It’s going to take forever to get 1k grails for the final two merges though...

Now I’m deciding whether to merge or fodder off my spare Female Byleth to OG Lyn or Athena for that juicy Fury 4, Ruptured Sky, and Even Atk Wave.

Should be working now for Android. Keep in mind that the FEH pass will have automatic renewal on by default so you’ll be charged for another month if you don’t disable it within 24 hours of the pass expiring.

Just go into your device’s settings (Settings -> Apple ID -> Subscriptions in iOS for example) that handle app subscriptions and cancel it. You’ll still have the FEH pass for the month, you’ll just have to buy it again once it expires.

So the Anniversary voting gauntlet is almost here with the winner being the free 5* we’ll be getting afterwards.

Starting brackets are as follows:

Altina vs Christmas Sothis
Legendary Leif vs Edelgard
New Years Alfonse vs Legendary Azura
Sothis vs Legendary Alm

Which team is everyone joining? Let’s all join Team Edelgard not for the memes, but so I can get her to +6!! While a free merge for Altina might be nice, I’m kind of leaning towards Christmas Sothis just because she has the stats no armor should ever be allowed to get.
