Alphonse is a decent enough unit, he's just completely outclassed by so many other sord lordz. I intend to 5-star him sooner or later. I invested in Brash Assault, which I thought was a good idea (it wasn't), so I might try Vantage-baiting given his sword Volkvangr gets even more powerful when he's under 50% health.

Or, hell, maybe good ol' fashion swordbreaker. He aint doubling anything anyways.

It sounds like you just started playing though? The gacha feels super oppressive at first and then suddenly you have ten 5*s and mountains of feathers and no idea what to do with them all.

I think i started playing not too long after release, but I don't follow the metagame discussions or care about arena score beyond getting 2k feathers per week so I can't evaluate character strength well.

I'm not quite finished making a Horse Party Starring Blade Reinhardt team, but I've got enough of the components in place that I can tell it's gonna be a blast. Getting Eliwood up to five stars was a pain but things became incredible once he got Durandal. And to think, I haven't spent a dime on this game!

I have decided that when I finally get to play Thracia 776, I'll like Reinhardt.

I started since launch day and still only spam intermediate arena for the 2k feathers because I only play this game like 30 minutes per day at most. Maybe an hour if there's a new event, but this is my stop-go game when actual games are out.

I suspect one of Anna, Alphonse, and Sharena will be on the arena banner each season. Upgrading them means you can always have a high BST character to give you the bonus instead of wondering if you should work on Ursula for the one season she's on rotation despite not having an Odin to make her any good and her having the lowest BST in the game.

I do wonder if maybe all your teams are empty you donate Alphonse if you don't have Abel due to alphabet shenanigans.

They didn't last time, but the shorter mission timer means they probably changed it for this go around.

The fact that we've seen Anna and now Alphonse in back to back bonus rotations might indicate they've learned that they should include these units in the future. I mean before that they had Alphonse and Sharena as bonus units on the first rotation? I seriously think that none of the starters showed up for a month+.

Wrys is a meme in Japan, afaik. That's why multiple lines of his are just his Shadow Dragon recruitment verbatim.

I've had that error pop up when I had a battle complete without connectivity, I think if you just quit to the main menu a couple of times the game will straighten itself out (presumably giving you the orbs if the store registered your purchase successfully).

That's the problem. It won't even go to the point where I have to enter my password to confirm the purchase. I've tried force closing it and clearing the cache but nothing seems to work.

It's not as if goons are above this meme. Just look at the ongoing Shadow Dragon LP's fan art section.

(Also he's on the free rotation so it's not a stretch to expect most players can get him easily.)

I'm gonna go down in flames every round of this event and I'm still gonna get like 8k feathers from it. I hope no-one else joined team Subaki.

EDIT: Also, this may be purely anecdotal but it seems like you get more diverse teams at low levels. I've had a colorless and a non-blue ally in each of my battles so far.

Why are you running a red? It takes two people's units at random (one from your flist if available) and whatever you have in your first slot.
