I don't think I've seen anyone discuss this ITT yet, so: Flora's Atk/Res Solo skill is inheritable to healers. If you need something to stick in Veronica/Maribelle/Elise/Genny's A-slot, try pulling red :)

Good to know, but I think I'll wait for a hypothetical ATK/SPD solo. Or bond if I luck into that first.

Honestly though, close counter has been surprisingly useful on her and I'm not sure I actually want something else. Right now I have her sitting at 47 Atk and 40 Spd, which is enough to tank under certain circumstances provided she has the Close Def seal.

What range are you in? I'm not seeing any even though I'm using an unmerged Tailtiu, getting down towards 720. I'm using both BLyn and a dancer on my def team though :|

e: upon writing this I immediately felt bad for Tailtiu, so I uped the +spd -res I've been saving. The old one was +def/-hp, so life and death didnt feel so brutal, but this just looks she wouldnt survive the first attack. I do like her speed though:



Seeing as I already did it (drat wine), I'm going to finish this. Fury would put her back up at 60/65 effective hp, which is.. okay. And as a blade user she probably wants glimmer. 47 or 45 speed shouldnt really matter that much, the super speed reds with dc should die in the first anyway. Any Tailtiu users with any input?

ee: well spent feathers and fury imo! Old and new:

I might be grading on a curve, I thought the story chapter was pretty good, for the most part. I liked the opening dialog, veronica's "you really never shut up do you", the part with helbindi & the girls was good, Helbindi & Surtr, Laevataen was nice and everyone just going "you loving suck surtr" was fine. The ending needed something more (could splurge for a CG scene) but at least it was like
an ending

and not "oh, we're done? ok" that book 1 had

Maybe by Book 4 we'll have a genuinely good story throughout

:same: except that I really hated the ending, or at least the part where fjorm talks about how she'll stay with the summoner forever

My guess is that they were trying to justify why Fjorm doesn't just gently caress off and leave your barracks now that Surtr is dead, but, yeah they really didn't need to

Yeah I liked the direction of Fjorm deciding to use her limited time left alive to help the Order of Heroes in its mission to protect other lands from invading tyrants like Surtr. The additional sighs over the summoner were very unnecessary.

How did Fjorm do on the last CYL poll anyway? I get the feeling she isn't especially popular.

totally fine with her wanting to repay her debt, but going oh summoner................. was too much.

also this means Fjorm will be in story scenes in Book 3 most likely, yeah?

Since I had it open, the OC rankings are as follows:
4th - Veronica
10th - Loki
29th - Laevatein
37th - Alfonse
39th - Fjorm
40th - Sharena
62 - Surtr
71 - Bruno
75 - Anna (Heroes)
103 - Gunnthra


Laegjarn, Helbindi, Hrid & Ylgr weren't introduced at the time of the poll. I'm guessing they got a lot of positive feedback on the first two though, so they no doubt would have placed very highly.

Reminder, Anna got Marth'd hard in CYL2. If all her iterations counted, she would have had a score of 9749 with rank #20. :colbert:

Their attempt at a Saber failed

Now they’ll either try for an alternate universe Saber or Jeanne

Fjorm wasn't an Artoria. The closest equivalent to an FGO original that's popular is Jalter. Artoria and Jeanne were in previous works.

You know, now that book 2 is over and Fjorm officially has a terminal case of anime cancer, her story sorta has a sense of... finality to it.
