the resurrection passive doesn't count as losing a unit for your score

I know this is a joke, but I unironically think that healers are pretty good for people who don't want to whale out; they've given enough orbs that most people probably have 1-2 really good units, but upgrading to a 4 good unit team is a longer or more expensive haul than just running a healer and a dancer to get the most out of your best units. a crisp refreshing Moxie posted:Literally hitler Yeah but he can't beat Takumi or Linde.

Yes, but they also lower your score significantly by having terrible stats overall.

I mean that matters if you're trying for top 1000 arena, but I feel like there are a lot of people that could still benefit from just stringing together 7 wins on advanced. But I legit don't understand why you'd choose those characters for a focus, at most one of them is a 5* exclusive.

I like the idea of giving out bonus 5* versions of characters who can't normally be rolled as 5*. It just seems like a good thing to me, for the health of the game and for more characters to get used at all.

I agree, but at the same time you need some rare units in the mix to make people want to draw on the banner and not hoard their orbs. On the first 2 banners you could roll Camilla, Roy, and Robin as 3-4 star units, and that might be too few going forward but it's not far off from the right number.

Make an event where the reward is a random 5* from the entire pool of heroes. Some people get lucky and get something good, but at the very least everyone gets something decent worth playing with.

Anyone have any thoughts about whether a Robin with balanced Def and Res is better or worse than a Robin with low Res but high Def? Can't choose which gets merged into which. I mean, balanced defensive stats is kinda useful given how random enemy damage types can be and how you can't choose setup, but high Def Robin is better for anti-Takumi and other greys.

I would play to his strengths, personally. Robin's gonna die to a Nino regardless of how much RES he has (and maybe Julia? I dunno), so make him better at the things you're actually going to be doing with him. I mean, are you tanking dragons with him?

Since my pulls that got me nothing from this banner but DID give me Camilla and Tharja and Robin, my new Arena team that I've been training today is doing amazing. 4* Robin, Camilla, and Tharja with a 5* Abel are smoking people in the arena. Maybe that will change when everyone is 5* 40 but they're all between 25-32 so that might be giving me an advantage. I might have to change a bit because teams without swordlords give me the most trouble.

Is there any sort of rhyme or reason to whether you get greater or lesser badges when clearing Tenth Stratum? Also, assuming you're going to upgrade a character, is the discount you get for merging the same as you get for sending a hero home?

I'm actually having some semblance of fun training up my Cavalry team - Stahl/Frederick/Jagen/Clarine. I should probably just go ahead and promote Gunter to 4* for Hone Cavalry, but I've been getting decent mileage from my current set so far, and I can swap in Peri later on. Trees are a pain and a half though, and I'd actually like to pull an Elise to swap into Clarine.

Oh my god give me a motherfucking "undo" button for commands in this game. My latest "yes I read your tap to select and move this character as a confirmation to end this other character's turn or move where you didn't tap and immediately confirm it to end someone's turn" just had me move Tiki one space short of where I was tapping, putting her in Takumi's range so that he could instantly kill her from full HP on the enemy turn and break my pvp streak. Touchscreen controls are the loving worst.

Apparently 4526 points is rank 1003 right now. So close, yet so far. That's probably about the limit for non-whales. Obviously my rank will go down further over the course of the week though.

You get more arena points for having higher statted units, so a team of 4 5* heavy knights will probably get the most points.

# ? Feb 16, 2017 12:55 |

A) They all have to be 5*, or else they lose like 10 total stat points. Getting a team of all 5* armor knights seems whale-ish to me right now. And B) you still have to win without losing anyone, which might be difficult when it's hard to maneuver. Most of them can't even move past each other.

Every so often they take an old character that maxed out at 5* and give it a shiny new 6* form. A lot of times it's a pretty negligable upgrade, a poo poo character stays poo poo. But in some cases, like the recent update and Firion, it turns a character that you might never have even glanced at into a potential powerhouse that you won't have to spend forever rolling and hoping to get because they're fairly common and drop at basic 3* levels rather than having to be rolled at ridiculous base 5* rates with the game's bullshit broken rolls. Given how this game works though, a 5* Fir probably won't be a game changer unless they give her a cool skill or something, but who knows what will come out in the future.

Found out my Jeorge and Eirika are -atk IV. At least Jeorge is +res. Takes out non Robin mages pretty easy. Now I just need a anti-Robin unit. The best I got is 4* Nino with +atk/-res. Eirika/Nino seems pretty broken so I'm thinking about promoting Nino to 5*. If I can get Azura my team would be perfect. I wish I could just nintendo eshop credit for this game. I got $23 in credit lying around doing nothing I was suppose to use for Smash 4 DLC but got tired of the game before it came out. I'm getting my last 20 orb pull before the new banner. I got enough trash Fir and Hawkeye pulls that I don't want to waste a focus on them. For blues right now, I got +atk/-HP Cordelia or +spd/-res Sully. Both wreck reds so it's Sully's mobility/ arrow resistance versus Cordelia brave lance.

Ooh, ooh! I got a really nice pull just now: I was really hoping to get Eirika, and look! There she is! That's my second 5*. My first was Abel. She's going right on my main team along with Abel and Nino. For my fourth... I don't really have anyone amazing. Olivia maybe? Got a 3* of her.
