They're blue, you can't give them axe breaker unless dragons are special. Sorry if I worded that weird.

Also, if you want to give someone like, silver lance+ the unit giving it has to be 5* as per the skill requirement. I have no idea if giving it a regular silver lance would let you unlock silver lance+ after.

It doesn't, so unless you want to transfer 5* characters characters with crap weapons are going to stay that way.

Silver weapons do have fairly decent Mt, so that's an easy weapon to transfer if you don't care about special properties like Killer Lance or Ruby Sword.

Just gave Robin bowbreaker, since he's already hunting Takumis as job one. Also reciprocal aid, since he's got bonus HP, meaning I can juggle the spare health around to keep the whole team around if things really far apart.

Figure powering up Takumi is going to be a lot of people's "obvious" pick, might as well have the ultimate anti-Takumi weapon.

So, I have enough feathers for a 4-5* promotion and wanted some advice: here're my current L20+ 4* units

Sharena
Anna
Ursula
Narcian
FRobin
Nino (+Resist, -Speed)
Cecilia (+Resist, -Attack)
Adult Tiki (+Attack, -HP)
Kagero (+Attack, -Defence)
YetAnotherMRobin to feed into my 5* +1 Robin

My current 5*s are
Lucina (+Speed, -Resist)
MRobin+1 (+Defence, -Resist)
Azura (+Attack, -Defence)
Takumi (+Speed, -Attack)
Coredlia (+Defence, -HP)
Hawkeye (Apparently even?)
Elise (-Attack, +Defence)

My current team is Lucina, MRobin, Azura and the final slot is generally Takumi/Kagero/FRobin for Arena or Knowledge-of-blue-mages/Narcian for Knowledge-of-blue-spears.

So suffering from a lack of greens that aren't Hawkeye, but none of my current greens are amazing (will, Nino would be except she's -Speed). I'm leaning to Kagero, because she's been really good so far BUT Takumi kindasorta fits the role of "grey ranged unit" already.

A Hector would solve a lot of problems, but Hector solving problems what else is new.

As far as skill inherit goes...eh, I'll sort that out when I have to.

That's pretty rough. But who knows, might give people some incentive to roll on more of these "fight the dude" banners to roll on 5* versions of units with good weapons to transfer over.

Seems like this sets up for more gatcha BS. Reverse power creep introduced through new heroes with higher BST but crap skills to compensate for all the old heroes that are jacked with broken skills?

Nah, they only learn it at 5*. Hinata learns it at 4*, making him a super-valuable pull.

So I have way more setsunas then I thought, at least one is 5*. I plan to give bow breaker to MRobin, but should I do anything with the rest of them? Is she good on her own or should I give the bow to anyone else? Or should I just keep Jeorge as king bowman, I don't know what to give him.

Kagero would devour drat-near anything that crosses her path. I'd go for her over the others. A -spd Nino kinda sucks, but Nino is going to be strong anyways especially because you have an Azura on your team. A 5-star Anna is also great, especially now. She takes advantage of Fury better than anyone and Ardent Sacrifice gives her HP control and some non-healer healing. Replace her C skill with something like Threaten Attack, and you have a real winner.

Also put desperation on Lucina, rally attack on my Jeorge for dead turns and Moonbow on Abel cause that's one of the faster procs if I'm remembering?

Never quacked for this
So who should I promote, Nino (I have Julia), Sharena (I recently pulled Nowi) or Kagero?
I feel like Takumi's not pulling his weight (partly 'cause -Def +Res hurts him far more than I expected esp since he's supposed to be trading against other Takumis)

I should also give Rally Atk to Julia so she can buff Takumi or something.
Might give swordbreaker to Nowi if that's possible. Or maybe Quick Riposte.

Actually I just realized I should've given Quick Riposte to Takumi rather than Vantage.

So yeah just to confirm if anyone, like me, was uncertain. Upgrading a unit does not remove your added skills.

Perma-death events were confirmed. They don't actually kill your units, but basically you get a limited pool of dudes to throw at it.

Anyway, since we can swap tomes is there anyone who would utilize MRobin's takumi slayer tome better? Or is his beefy nature the best suited for that.
