Too stupid to figure out how to reroll quickly on Nox, went until I got 5* Sorcerous Prince Leo, and some other 4*, good enough.

Don't know poo poo about Fire Emblem characters, but this guy rides a horse and looks like an rear end in a top hat, so probably good.

vengeance is still called vengeance, there's just also a milder form that comes before it called retribution

So can some 3* upgrade to 5*? Is this similar to games like Final Fantasy:BE where units can be awakened to 5*?

Yes.

You use Feathers and the items the Training Tower stages give you to upgrade units to higher star values.

leo is a good boy and probably the least rear end in a top hat-ish important character in fates

Is there a tier list? I have not played a single FE game so I only recognize Roy/Marth from smash but I haven't done my pulls yet. I kind of want that book guy from smash 4 i think, he was cool

Also I, uh, accidentally linked my account before reading that I shouldn't have done that before rerolling. rip

After a few hours of rerolling with nothing better than a single 4* i got:

GOOD ENOUGH. Through the first 3 worlds, did a bunch of training tower, and redeemed all of the NNID rewards. Going to throw another 20 summon tonight. I could use a healer, literally just running the 4 usable dudes I have and murdering things.

Is the only way to get orbs through story missions and the store? It's kinda a slow process to get them.

Edit: Also how necessary are 5 star dudes? My first rolls were only 3 star characters but the generic 2 star guys you start with don't seem that bad, they're more than pulling their weight.

The game's been out, like, under a day, there's no meaningful way to have a tier list. More stars = better but this seems like the base game is simple enough a monkey could play it.

Like every other gatcha game there will be special event stages (likely under the Paralogs section), which will probably also supply orbs.

Cool. Never played a gatcha before but I kinda figured there'd be another way to earn orbs than through the story, even if it's like a special one time only thing.

They may also send free orbs in the mail occasionally if an event is going on, I know several gacha games do that

There's also special battles like the one to get the wizard lady which will probably be more in depth as the game goes on. If it's anything like 99% of mobile games as well we'll probably get some kind of challenge reward thing as well for clearing every stage without losing a unit, using certain units or other bullshit that gives extra orbs.

What color orb does she drop from? I kind of want her because her attack animation turns her into a fluffy dragon and the sprite is super cute.

Thankee kindly.
After playing around with Hector, I don't think he's that strong. He hits like a truck, but he's too easy to confound due to his lowish speed and 1 Move. Ninjas will harass him to no end until he learns Distant Counter.

Subaki's been working pretty well with him actually thanks to Swap.

At base but the one I've got can also learn a skill to recover HP on her own and buff the stats of allies adjacent to her when she fights. I'm at least going to see if she works as a tank since I haven't pulled a pure healer yet.

Neat. You get them from friends so that's not actually as bad as it sounds. For example, in Brave Exvius I've been completely capped on friend points for like a month because the only thing to do with them is roll for lovely units, and my unit box is full of not lovely units.

That's the closest I've found to how to set it. You can verify it's worked by going back to your Home screen. Your leader will be standing alone at the top of the room.

Not on my screen, at least the ui doesn't show it. The help screen even indicates you need feathers and badges. 20,000 will take a while - so far I'm slated to only get a few thousand after this week's pvp " season".
