<click> <click> What is it with this dancing?! Bouncing around like fools... I would have thought my own kind at least would understand the seriousness of our Adventurer's Guild!

I spent an insane amount of my 370 orbs, and I'm now down to 140, but I got her! +SPD -DEF, which seems pretty good for having a Hone Dragons buddy. I'm so glad she's a fast dragon that can have good synergy with Myrrh.

That wasn't my only 5* though, that would have been dreadful. I also got my first Zelgius, who is +SPD -RES, making him better than the Black Knight I've been using this whole time in every way. Well, if you ignore the fact that I gave Black Knight Wrath, that is. I'll likely train him up and start using him over him, but Black Knight's years of service won't go unappreciated, and hey someday I might need the defensive Steady Stance over the offensive Fierce Stance.

I also got another Brave Lyn, who I'm most likely going to merge. Swift Sparrow would be nice to give to someone, sure, but Lyn's such a core part of everything I do in this game, I feel like I have to merge.

I put Swift Sparrow on Caeda, it is nice, but I really need a +Att Caeda. I think I got rid of someone without looking at them pre-weapon refinery. Hope there weren't any good ones.

took me two full stamina bars but beat infernal Robin with my Flier Emblem team.

Awesome beer, no pants.

E: ^^ I am in the same boat, with a +Spd Caeda with swift sparrow. But I have been very impressed in how well she does shred.

About 110 orbs into the Legendary banner and I've gotten:
+atk-def Brave Lyn
+atk-res Gunnthra
+res-spd Fjorm
and about 100 Setsuna's.

Still a very good start and I'm switching to just colorless hell pulling now.

I don’t even want to replace my +SPD Caeda with a +ATK version since doubling is so important for her and a lack of attack is easier to fix than speed (and she does plenty of damage to armors and cavalry anyway)

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

I've never really had problems doubling with my +atk Caeda tbh. She's already one of the faster heroes in the game, I think she'll be fine at neutral.

I also got my first of a few 4* heroes while pulling, including Roy (wow), Male Morgan (didn't even check stats, meh), Sothe (bad nature, probably will give LaD to Soleil), and Rebecca (:confuoot: as the other poster). I think the only other 4* hero I'd really want at the moment is L'Arachel, and a good-natured Sothe cause I would actually promote and use him.

I’m not planning on multimerging her so it’s often +0 or +1 Caeda vs. a +10 enemy and at that every point of speed counts. I often run into poo poo like 40-44 speed Amelias and it’s Caeda’s job to kill those.

Never turn your nose up at a good Barst or Severa, almost every single unit you ever use will want Repo

Also I'd trade my kingdom for a couple Shannas now that I have a couple units who could really use Desperation 3

Definitely, but I didn't get a single Selena when I pulled today. I was more talking along the lines of 4* units I still didn't own, or didn't get well in any capacity. Hopefully next time there's a cool red or green focus I can get enough fodder to keep myself well-set.

hello
So far the Grima banner has netted me a -Res, +HP Sakura and a +Spd, -Def BLyn. On the spring banner my free orbs got me Kagero... the OG Kagero :eng99:

A bit over 100 orbs, and not as single 5* came to me, let alone GrimmaF. I'm not disappointed because the legendary banner turned into a Klein banner for me. 20 orbs per Klein makes up for the total lack of 5*. Somehow, I had to use Ninian to finish off GrimmaF in Inferno. None of my other dragons could tank a double+bonfire from GrimmaF, but Ninian+hone dragons could double GrimmaF instead.

I got Fjorm off my free pull and I don't even know why I pulled on blue so I'm trying to decide whether to go back

E: Do I want my base Fjorm to be +spd/-def or neutral? Fjorm being in the 30ish speed zone is awkward

I spent 80 orbs, and got Brave Lyn and two Sakuras. I'm fine with this, but only because female Grima has a battle against her to get rid of the question mark in the herodex, and that's really all I wanted Grima for.

The only banner I really want at this point is 4* banner with Marth but I feel like that isn't very likely as the only real skills he has are pivot and escape route which are neither rare or especially desireable

You could have just fought her in the BHB and she'll get added to the herodex as a silhouette.

Why hello, I see that you too are also a person of such an esteemed character to appreciate true beauty when it presents itself to you. For your consideration:



(Yes, I did sacrifice a Kitty Sakura to make this). Until F!Morgan came along, he was my best RES wall, and he still is incredibly good at it. I look forward to the days where there's an all-mage team on an AA because it means it's an easy win. Just plop him down and have the enemy team behold him.

merge your tiki to +10, make her +def and give her steady breath and aether

She won't ever handle the blue manakete but the cavalier wasn't any problem for a super tiki. A non-super tiki might be insufficient

Almost got my AA run ended by a Reinhardt because I didn't expect the Blarblade/Close Counter build and I was about to attack into him while he had a full set of horse buffs. I imagine they get a lot of defense wins from people who see Rein and assume it has to be a Dire Thunder build.

Weapon Workout quests using random characters from an empty brigade in Rival Domains is pretty fun, not gonna lie. It's fun to look at these good and these bad characters and see how I can adapt them.

I know the refinements are random, but if you're gonna be a random Genny, please don't be Double Wrathful. That was funny but sad.

Really tanky units/mixed tanks like Sheena can take advantage of it, but then you can't give them QR and there's only one QR seal. I guess it could be good on units that are both tanky and fast, but there aren't too many of those around. It's one of those skills that would see a lot more use if they made it into a seal.
