Akariss is solid at this game, but he gets extremely hung up on details.

Not gonna lie, there are many others like him, but this one is mine. Please add him to the Hall of Fame, Cheetah:



7 of them were f2p, the rest were poor impulse control either because of boredom at family holidays or impatience after a stressful several days of work. I'm not proud but I'm not regretful, either. Oh, and he wears the golden swimming goggles.

Bonus pic, the final wheel:



Ylgr is +def -spd and Quan is +HP -def, both of which sound terrible, but both of them are 5000 more HM and thus 5000 more feathers and then they can get fed to someone cooler like Gwendolyn or something.

If you have a +ATK or +SPD Raven, he's fun. He doesn't need to inherit any rare skills, which is nice.



Thanks! I think mine's +ATK; I'll probably give this guy a go.

I feel like making doing something with Fir. Is +SPD better or +ATK? Keep in mind, I don't intend to multi-merge her. I'm thinking speed because her damage is going to come from special procs but, dear god, she is weak.

39 speed seems way more useful than 29 base attack because it means you will double more and get to your special faster so she can throw out specials that deal actual damage

Speed is much better than atk imo. She’s a doubling machine and her res is high enough to set off some solid icebergs.

Even if he was the best, he would still be the worst because he's Ryoma.

Hello fellow "got Ryoma dropped in your lap and hate his stinking guts" person! I ended up feeding his rear end to Sharena partly out of sheer spite, but I see you have a Nephenee! Nephenee would want Kestrel Stance very much!

that's rough man. it happens way more than you'd think.

i've long since learned my lesson. save all your orbs for one 5* and one 5* only, and never roll on anything else except for free pulls + any color that can drop 3-4*s of a character you're working on in that free pull. trying to get even one 5* from every banner is folly

The nice thing about FEH is that unless you're whaling you're better off just promoting and merging 4* units anyway. Any new 5*s I get are mainly fodder unless they're super OP.

i don't even think she has anything particularly desirable for skill fodder now, right? sturdy blow can be found by promoting athena, and drive speed 3 can be found on a 4* tailtiu, so :shrug:

I see more that try to bring me to the right side, for some reason

I have seen exactly one that forces you into the middle forward, though. That was interesting, since it limits you into a narrow area and you have to really work around the units if you want to hit either the fountain or the pot before getting the kills.
It also made me discover that my legendary eirika dies in one hit from a Tiki with dragon buffs by dealing exactly enough damage .....

yeah I actually meant right side but I'm an idiot. do most of the tilesets just have more natural/terrain obstacles on the left side?

It's just a poor translation because apparently their exclusive B skills are "X's Ward" in Japanese (Sacae's Ward and Beorc's Ward, a la Sigurd's Crusader's Ward)

The problem is that they originally translated it as "Blessing" (which is a fine translation of it, imo, I like it better than Ward anyway), but then I guess that name was too long for Crusader's Ward so they started being inconsistent with it.
