The Camilla HP hit is probably bad for her survivability? Ogma got rolled +atk -res, which looks hilarious to me since he can't handle magic anyways.

So apparently there is a speech at the base whenever a 5* gets to lv 40. I'm not sure if this happens with lower ranked units, but Sheena's is pretty cute.

Anna's at least seems to be more along the lines of "you may not have looked like I was expecting, but you've proven yourself to be worthy of respect".

I can have moments of... eccentricity and sometimes be quite curious about things. Please forgive me if I do something foolish or rude.

I'm currently ranked 48,000 with the all-magic 5* Child Tiki, 5* Linde, 4* Merric, 4*Nowi (still at level 38). I assume I'll drop down to the lowest rung tonight, but it's cool that I got on the board.

So are there any story missions with level 35 armored units? Trying to finish this mission for the orbs before time runs out and it's turning impossible. Every time I get a tower stage with one it inevitable gets stopped by some solid bullshit like a guy that inexplicably gets two turns in a row, or a lucina that does like 50+ damage and doubles every unit I have, even the green ones.

Lunatic world of Blazing. Hector's an armored unit, and he turns up over level 35 in... two nobles, I think. Should work.

Yeah I was hoping to get some this morning but nope, not a single hector. No takumis either, oddly enough. Just Abels for days. It was a weird arena run.

Having a high stat arena team is nice cause it is always trying to match you with higher stat teams in Advanced, which usually means teams with 1-2 Hectors. Free wins.

So I have 3 3* Robins: one is +HP/-Res, one is neutral, and one is +Spd/-Atk. Which one would be best to raise up?

Thankee kindly.
I stick Hector into my team with two blues just on the off chance they mess up and are left with their blues against him. I get my 250+ Defense wins, that's enough for me.

I do need a better blue on my defense team though. I'm running Robin/Subaki since the AI isn't terrible at using Swap. Peri's almost 40 so maybe I'll swap her in over Subaki, she really can't take a hit but she might kill a lord or manakete and that's really all you need.

Probably HP/res, any Mage that can double him is probably killing him anyways.

Yosuke will now die for you.
I entered a level with 4 ranged guys. It was the labyrinth stage. It took 10 minutes, but Nino capped her XP gain in that level, my healer did too.

Is there a reason Nino is preferred to Tharja? Just the color spread? I'd rather have a blue blade caster, but apparently Odin has terrible Attack.

Is a +SPD/-HP Julia worth using over Nino? I have Eirika but on the other hand, I have zero ways of dealing with dragons. I still have no one who can deal with Lucina or Ryoma. Can a +atk Effie blow them up in one hit?

Red is more plentiful in good units, there's very few elite green units in comparison, Nino gives attack buffs, Draw Back is an incredibly useful skill especially for a 2 range.

If you have Effie you have an answer to Lucina and Ryoma. Nino is only worth using on a specific team comp, Julia will suit your purposes much better.

Probably because Nino can easily deal with Robin and Linde.

+Atk Effie will one-shot pretty much any red. She has effectively 76 Attack on the attack against them. She'll absolutely pop both Lucina and Ryoma.

I'll probably upgrade Effie to 5* then. That gives me Linde and Effie for blues, Raven and Julia for greens, ghetto-Takumi in Jeorge, and Eirika. All pretty much need is one offensive red unit. I've only pulled Roy and Chrom 4* and Roy is -spd.

I'll do that then, thanks. I was debating if +spd would be worth -atk, but that's not going to change anything against anyone important (read: Most Takumis) anyway, so that's not a good trade-off.
