Huh, never really noticed that that was an overarching rule; but I guess I've never come across a situation where I wanted to burn someone for a weapon before now.

I was really hoping that it would be. It would have kinda made sense too, I had Mia using Alondite at the end of Radiant Dawn

That's why I was wondering, quite honestly. I'd probably give it to one of my meme characters but :shrug: I'd like it.

i mean a lot of the uninheritable weapons were actually free use in their base game. Durandal, Gradivus, Mulagir, Mystletainn, Nidhogg, Parthia, Urvan, Vidofnir, Regal Blade.

I mean I think it's canon that the BK is just a fairly strong dude with some good gear

A lot of the dialogue around him in Radiant Dawn particularly hits on how he's this unthinkably fast and unshakable force even when he's not in his blessed armor. I always felt like his individual fighting prowess gets hyped up in the story more than most arch-villains, besides maybe Zephiel

In both PoR and RD Black Knight shows up in a couple of early maps as a big mountain of stats that you can't hope to touch and then in some later mid-game maps as a big mountain of stats you can maybe hope to touch only to then immediately die. He even takes on or kills several characters established as being pretty big deals and leaves with barely a scratch so it does a great job of building him up. He lives up to it to, except in RD if you equip Ike with a hammer.

Maybe I should add to the OP that everyone with a phone good enough to play this game has a good enough phone to emulate FE7 or FE8 and have a whole section on how to get into the main series if you like this game

I'd just started baby's first FE game (FE7) on desktop and I wished I knew my phone was good enough to emulate. Thanks for adding that to the OP. Super useful info.

the most concerning part of this image is how many orbs you spent upgrading your barracks

Instead of spending 20 orbs on a 5-pull, pretend it costs 21 orbs so you can get 5 new heroes + 5 new slots to stash them in.

That said I'm still too cheap to spend orbs on upgrading barracks because I'm an irrationally cheap human being.

Holy poo poo, I was getting kind of mad at my luck since my last 4 summon screens had no blue stones. Just clicked on a red one and BOOM, Brave Roy, exactly who I was going for on the CYL banner I got the bullshit 4.75% pity rate on. +res -hp, not too bad.

~If you love something, set it free~

edit: Just realized that with rein, titania, and bow Lyn I can finally put together cavalry emblem. I guess armor is next up on the meme team ticket.

If you love something you should set it free, doesn't that mean you should send your Brave Roy home?

I can have moments of... eccentricity and sometimes be quite curious about things. Please forgive me if I do something foolish or rude.

Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight and barbecue your own drumsticks!

I need to start feathering these 4* Seliphs. I just drew another one this morning and I already had 2. I don't need that many Rally Speed!

I also drew another 5* Chrom. I have a +1 Chrom already... I am seriously tempted to give Aether to Amelia. Good idea, bad idea?

It's good, giving Aether to other characters you like so they get a higher arena score is the best use of a 5* Chrom

My Amelia has her axe, distant counter, quickened pulse, and aether. It's a great combo, it nearly always fires in arena matches and in chain/tempest/sqaud/whatever she's the energizer bunny

She'll need an awful lot of SP to learn it, though. It costs 750, Jesus. Good thing there are some maps up right now that are good for SP farming!

Which she loving destroyed. She destroyed Camilla hard. I didn't even need to heal her! She just healed the chip damage herself with Renewal. That map is half sword losers! Amelia cares not for your puny weapon triangle! Jesus...

Nice, for real I think Amelia might be one of the best candidates for Aether in the game.

Well, that's the exact armor team I plan to run once I get the 5* Black Knight (plus Hector) so I'd say it's viable as all hell.

If you don't have Hector, throw in Sheena. She's an excellent wall for an armor team.

That's also the team I plan to make lol. I have a +Atk 4* Effie next in line for feathers after BK now that Brave Roy means I don't need to feather Xander for cavalry emblem anymore. I just need to get her a brave lance and she'll be set.

edit: Arvis can be my 4th for full Armor Emblem.
