Because of lancebreaker? All of them.

I faced a 4 sword team and in 2 turns Abel killed all of them solo.

I'll be happy with this 4200 arena score I got. hosed up in the last match by losing two guys.

This is the best I can do with this lovely 3* Narcian on my team. Him not being able kill a robin in a single turn, even with an attack buff, really made things difficult.


Edit: Also gently caress the Azura/Linde/Takumi/Ryoma team that guy had

And maybe Julia is good? I dunno.

Either way, I think we're really lacking in good Red mages. Tharja is considered a second-rate Nino for reasons that honestly aren't very clear to me, Lilina seems generally underwhelming, and the rest of them aren't even worth talking about. Blue obviously has Linde and the other Robin.

Eh, I've got Leo and he has his uses. Quick riposte for example makes it hilarious to bait archers or green mages, so long as you have a good healer. Anyway, I'm looking forward to FRobin because it means I can get someone who's probably a decent green mage without having to rely on pulls.

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

Team advice? Nino's really fun to use, so I'd like to base the team around her if possible. I play pretty casually, so I don't expect to be able to promote anyone else to 5, but then I don't care about the extra arena ranks that would bring unless a character's usability hinges on it.

I'm just waiting for garbage extra point characters to rotate out of arena.

It's frustrating because I want to do well in arena but I also don't want to pay my hard earned orbs on a bad banner.

Lilina is actually pretty good if you have a team to stall or kite with. She has the highest attack of any mages and has an absurd AoE to back it up. She can commonly wipe out the whole map on her own when given the chance. The problem is she doesn't benefit from buffs like Nino and Tharja and her speed is terrible.

I'm looking forward to RobinF because I haven't pulled any good mages and I'm interested to see what she's really like. She's also much cooler than RobinM in Awakening.

Nino synergizes with pretty much any buffer, so you'll want Sharena on your team. You should keep Olivia on there too because dancer, even if her passive buff overlaps with Sharena's rally.

Doing well in the arena will always be about spending money on the newest, shiniest stuff.

You can get a score good enough to be in the top 100k pretty easily using the free 3* Narcian from the event.

I got a nice five summon recently, finally breaking the bad streak. Got Julia, Catria, Eirika, all fives. I had to know what the others were after that. A Tiki and a Hinata. Now I dunno if Tiki is any good, but I like her and I've wanted one of the dragon people on this for a while.

Anyway, I can do a full team of fives now with the Sakura I got a while ago. Also I didn't really have anyone amazing for tomes or swords, so that's a nice change. Those new quests popped up at a very nice time.

Also I was at a loss of what to do before my nice summon so I ended up getting Sharena and Anna and Alphonse to four star just because.

e: also also i hope they come up with something extra for SP because Sakura has like 600 and learned all her skills ages ago

e2: oh, something I meant to ask, is there a list or something of which story maps are good for training certain characters? Like that hard launch celebration is just axe enemies so good for swordpeople and such?

Your chances of rolling a healer is pretty high if you went exclusively grey. I'd consider it a waste though since Lissa will roll back around and you could grab Wrys as well in the meantime.

I would strongly suggest not spending orbs on gray until we get a banner with a feature gray 5*.

Woo, decided to do another pull and got an Eirika!

Brings me up to three 5*s... all sword lords. God drat it.

I'm coming up on 20k feathers pretty soon. What do you guys think of a team with 5* Eirika and Sharena for Arena? They're pretty complimentary, since they can buff each others' ATK, and Sharena pulses -ATK/+DEF while Eirika pulses +SPD. Pull Back is pretty slick too. The only other real 4* > 5* option for me would be Kagero.

ChronoReverse

Sharena and Kagero are both great candidates for 5*

If I had a Kagero I'd probably buff her first since I have Linde taking care of reds.

Too bad that getting Lucina as your child screws over your default kid as that takes away his best marriage option. Though of course, it does give you the best Lucina (since any kid that Robin mothers/fathers will be the best possible version of that kid) so that could or could not be worth it.

Still, I think mrobin kinda has the better raw end of the marriage deal when it comes to either first or second gen characters in Awakening.

That said, I expect frobin in Heroes to be much the same as mrobin in terms of stats and abilities, just being of the green color instead of the blue color which should be good if any shifts in the meta game happens (+ I think that would still make her a better Grónnraven user, assuming she gets that tome, than Cecilia).

You already have 7 really good 5*. At this point, just pick whoever you like best. If you want to shoot for top 5k arena scores, go with Nowi since she increases your score the most out of those options.

I did it after my first 5* pull while i was still flooded with orbs and am glad. Yeah i couldve done 2 more pulls, but id rather grind out orbs for pulls than something esoteric that doesnt feel like much of a reward on its own.
