In addition to this, I've done a Chrobin pairing pretty much every time I've played Awakening so in my mind's eye she's Robin's daughter which makes me do a double take every time someone mentioned they married Lucina.

I guess that's more Fire Emblem-y though. :v:

went into AA to see how well a team of mine scores there, since it seemed like I might fall out of the 22 coins tier. Got a 4892 score that will definitely hold, using no items and crushing 4 horse+dancer teams along the way with no real trouble

Maybe I'm just too conservative with my good units when I'm in tryhard mode. Could also just be variance though

I'm the complete inverse; I can't not see Chrom with Sumia and m!Robin with Lucina



But speaking of m!Robin x Lucina and FE Heroes, I've been thinking about how to get the most out that pair up.

Definitely running Robin with Raven tome + Triangle Adept, gave him bow breaker and sword breaker to completely destroy them, Quick Riposte 2 (cause I don't think I have enough patience to get Subaki to 5* so I can give QR3 to Robin), and maybe Hone Attack to make Lucina more a killing machine.
My Robin has +health/-def IV, so I gave him Ignis and Lucina Rally Defense and the Fortify Def Seal to make up for it and give Robin and extra boost when he can attack with Ignis. Or maybe I should switch it to boosting Robin's speed instead of Def?
I don't have the Distant Defense S-seal so I did the next best thing and made a Deflect Magic Seal
Also thinking of giving him swap in case Lucina attacks a unit while in range non-green tome user. That or pull back

For Lucina, she has a +spd/-res IV, so I'm thinking of leaning on that to get her to double most units and activate Aether.
Either Fury or Darting Blow as the A skill and Vantage as the B skill.
As for C-skill, I was thinking of Threaten spd on anyone not dead or who could be doubled by Robin.
And like I said before, I was thinking of her Assist Skill being Rally Defense and the S-Seal Fortify Defense to help make up for Robin's loss of Def or Rally Speed and the speed increasing S-seal to bring up Robin's speed.

And of course the Ally Support.

What do you all think?

You can buff any given stat once, and the highest effect will apply, so Rally Defense + Fortify Defence seal on Lucina for Robin is redundant. Diversify your buffs.

Vantage isn't a great B-skill for Lucina, because Falchion will heal her out of the proc range sometimes. I'd recommend doubling down on Renewal instead.

Other than that it seems fine to me. Give it a spin and see how it works.

Thanks for the tip about buffs and Falchion possibly healing her out of Vantage Range. But with that in mind, I do have an extra Subaki who can give QR2 to her. With Falchion and Aether healing her, that can keep her above 80% I figure.

Basically what I did, though I use either QR3 or Bow/BlueTome breaker. Swordbreaker isn't really needed for mine (+10, S rank Summoner Supported, +Atk, -HP) because he doesn't take damage from them in the first place so who cares if it takes him two turns when they do nothing, though most of the time he one-shots them with adjacent Lucina with Spur Atk. Given -Def, it might be useful but BowBreaker is really good suddenly if Lyn runs Triangle Cancel and you accidentally didn't notice and just put him there thinking he could tank no problem. I also have him normally with Threaten Res just in case he can ring around the pillar someone, or have a melee unit stop a tile outside their range to get blast-dance-blasted. Also gave him the full Deflect Magic Seal, which allows him (given his +10 and S rank SS) to tank and kill both non-TriangleCancel Lyn and Rein on the same turn with Bowbreaker). As far as Support Skills go, I alternate between Rally Spd/Atk and the movement skills like Pull Back and Reposition. MRob is by far my most used unit and has so so many skill options and has still gotten to 9999SP twice. His Attack Skill is normally boring Moonbow/Bonfire, just so he can absolutely make sure Rein or BowLyn don't survive one round and get WoM danced.

Lucina is really good with +spd and mine is -def so not much different. Aether is good for Arena Score. Fury is a solid A Skill, and Vantage is ok (and at times the only way you can win if the other team has someone in Vantage range who one-shots you like a Bonfire-ready Vantage Hector or w/e) though I've had recent surprising success with keeping Renewal from when she was a healbot during the Tempests. You get the occasional possible-no-wins but you can plan around that if you notice Distant Counter+Vantage is a thing on the other side, or let Lucina's Renewal+Falchion heal her to max which makes her a little tricky to oneshot with a supporting Robin giving her +2 to all. Her Assist is normally Ardent Sac given her pretty ridiculous regen with Falchion and Renewal though had success with both offensive Rallies and her native Spur Atk is fine, esp when Robin gets a +6 Atk and +2 Spd just from being next to her. +10Atk +2 Spd/+6 Atk&Spd if you use either Rally skill then have Robin attack without moving.

I'm 2 behind right now, B and D. I've got to the last map for B, but the thing that bugs me is having to redo the easy ones in the exact same way every time I want to try something new for the last two maps. It's fast, but it's still tedious as all get out.
