i think the 'higher percentage of 5* the longer you go without one' only applies per banner so you're probably better off sticking with one banner until you get a 5* and then switching

Yeah I'm turning in 20 orbs with one banner, resetting, and then doing 20 orbs with the other. Will hit a 5* eventually and move from there.

So, with the Winning Streak mechanic in the Arena, does losing mean you lose a bunch of points? Or are they already applied? If it's the former, it seems kinda silly to risk it, which would be lame.

They're already applied, winning streaks just means you get more points per win.

I hope they expand teams so you can have like, five units or something later on :negative: four makes it so hard to decide because I like a healer and an archer on my team. So that just leaves two real units.

Are arena matches against real opponents or does the AI run other player's teams like in star wars galaxies?

So after my first roll kinda sucked (It had a Donny and Arthur who I love but didn't have a healer), I decided I'd just reroll until I got a healer, not really worried about getting a 5* hero because gently caress it. Popped that black orb and got Lissa, sighed that I wouldn't have to reroll 30 times to get a healer, then...



Jackpot. :getin:

Yeah I'm convinced 5 star characters have better growth rates. This is the second perfect level I'm gotten for Roy and all his levels are good ones.

Going back to this, I'm not sure if rates are affected by rarity or if Roy's growth is just good. The levels I've had for Tiki and Chrom so far haven't been anything special and sure as hell haven't been anywhere close to perfect.

e: Though Chrom seems to get a lot of attack in general and he just utterly destroys any axe user he gets close to.

Yeah this owns armors so hard sometimes. There's absolutely no way to know where your units will be starting and sometimes your 1 move guy will get dumped in the furthest corner and be completely useless for the entire battle.

That too, Roy keeps starting in the back where I can't just let him go slaughter the whole enemy team.

I think rarity definitely affects it but it's not guaranteed. I haven't had any perfect roy levels but they've been drat good so far. My 4* units have been having pretty decent levels but the archer guy I got from the prologue is lucky to get anything at all when he levels.

Was trying to figure out what the big benefit to Camilla's weapon double attack was since you get a double attack when your speed is higher than your target's anyway, until I attacked an enemy she had SPD advantage over and found out they stack. Four attacks is fun.

Was Fir any good in her Fire Emblem game? For being a 4* unit she feels a bit underwhelming. High speed, so I guess she's supposed to be a glass cannon? I think I might drop her for the 3* mage I pulled.

Well there's that, and the double attack happens immediately. So it's not attack-counter-attack like it is with normal doubling, it's attack-attack-counter(-attack-attack if you have enough speed)

EDIT: So I've yet to meet an enemy Roy hasn't destroyed in a single hit, which is hilarious because he also gets double hits on everything so far. 10/10 would Roy again.

I gave up on rerolling because I'm probably not going to play this game that much anyway because I am bad at FE games.

This was my last reroll before I just gave up, came out pretty good. Before I would pull maybe 2 4stars at max.

You can, actually! It's not shown but each slot in your party corresponds to a map spot. Rearrange your party and it'll redistribute your units on the map. In my experience the back row is usually the two center slots, and slots 1 and 2 and slots 4 and 3 usually are placed near each other. So for two frontline backline pairs put them F B B F.
