Speaking of Ninos, should I 5-star my -atk +res? I have no idea what I'm doing, so if this is a 'meh' I should probably save the feathers for something else.

Elyv posted:-atk/+res is a pretty weak nature but Nino hits so hard that she'll probably actually still be pretty good. Depends on what your other magic damage options are, what's in your 5 star queue, that kind of thing. I only just found out how deep the meta is in this game, so I dont even know my options. Been playing casually a while though, so I have a roster of sorts.. Using +atk/-def Reinhardt (with just fury added, lacking skills to inherit) and +spd/-hp azura to kill most easy stuff, but struggling on harder content that needs baiting and survivals. I have no tanks afaik, and my greens are a bit meh. That Nino, a Raven, some low neutral Cecilia and Fredericks that I'm levelling up. Eliwood (+atk/--def)and Ogma (+def/-hp) seem to die too easily as well, and I'm not terribly impressed with them at 4*. So yeah I dont even know what I'm asking, information overload (I love 'casual' games with crazy meta (and also parentheses)).

cheetah7071 posted:Reinhardt, Azura, Nino, and a red buffbot (Eirika is the best but anyone with rally attack and hone speed or the reverse will do) is a very solid team that should be able to carry you through nearly anything that doesn't ask you to have multiple teams Most of those arent 40, working on the remaining 5s and some 4s. Promoted Rein a while ago and I've been promoting up some greens, leaving me at ~30k feathers that I'm not sure what to do with..

cheetah7071 posted:Nowi is your best tank I see (with TA and QR she's quite good) but she's blue too. ATiki is pretty reasonable to cover Reinhardt's Julia weakness, but she'll absolutely have to have triangle adept and G tomebreaker to pull it off. Murderion posted:Provided Charles there doesn't have The Worst IV, you won't need to worry about greens for a while - him and Nino should cover the mage front, while you can inherit Raven's Brave Axe + onto someone else - Cherche is the recommended candidate due to her monster attack, but Frederick is good if you need a tank as his def is quite good and he's not vulnerable to bows. Since both are 3/4*s, you won't need to promote them after inheriting the axe, as you can merge them into a 4*+10 for higher stats. So for the red; upgrade Chrom, Eliwood or a Tiki? The guys get substantially better weapons, and Tiki seems a bit hard to make great. Not sure what IVs Chrom or the Tikis are, any way to tell when the heroes arent base or max?

Pulling for a Nino on the hone attack banner a while back didnt go very well, stopped counting after 100 orbs. The pity rate reset when I had to pull on an all red summoning circle and got a bloody brilliant -atk Lilina. It wasnt all bad though, I got a +atk Cherche and, uh, a few Freddies; Prepped for merges for +atk Fred, and my two dancers. Anywho, so I pulled a freebie green on the Lilina banner, and hello 3* +spd/-res Nino! Somethingsomethingfate. So the question is, do I 5* or merge a 4*? I have two -atk/+sht Ninos currently. I would guess 5*, since the weapon adds a tiny bit? Also, not having to wait for ages.

Thought so. I dont really see myself spending 20k feathers for just a couple of stat points though, and we're talking -atk/+res on my spares -spd/+hp (thought both were -atk). I figure I'll save one in case I ever want to inherit gronnblade+ to Cecilia, and give the good Fred draw back. e: okay I totally misunderstood that.

Decided to check out arena assault with my 19 40s (some are pure shite). Sent in four 30-somethings as my first team to be sure I made it through, played advanced on most and easy on 2. Surprisingly high score of 3950 for no effort whatsoever, in the 15/1700 reward tier currently.

In an effort to improve my laughable depth, I'm going for a betterer merged Cecilia. I have the following: Neutral +atk/-spd (x2) +atk/-res I 5*ed my good Nino, so I have a spare gronnblade to give her (not 5*ing it to merge). Considering popping fury 2 in there also, if not just keeping her attack +3. I'm thinking -spd, as the 3 spd wont make her double stuff (20 vs 23 base), and she wont get doubled by (most) Reins anyway. Any suggestions? valuum fucked around with this message at 13:25 on Aug 9, 2017 |

gently caress IVs: Ike +HP/-Atk Julia +def/-spd Are those at all salvagable? Can/should I inherit Ike's sword to someone? I suppose Julia might be able to deal with Reins if I slap TA on her.. Or at least wait and see what the AA seals are for. Also of note: Tharja +Atk/-spd Marth +Atk/-spd Not quite sure what to do with those either, having lost their forte.. They sure know how to ruin the joy of good finds.

So I continued spending orbs on red for the hero fest banner, because the Ike I got was poo poo (+HP/-atk). Finally got another, and it's loving +HP/-spd. I cant tell which one I like less and dont know what to do with the other one - 32 atk 31 spd vs 35 atk 28 spd. I suppose keep the -atk one, since it would still be able to double some Hectors?

Huh, slumped upon clearing lunatic on the first try. My first infernal GHB, yay! Rein (5* +atk, db3, but no lancebreaker) and Cherche (4* brave+) killing everything, 4* Olivia dancing and doing the last green cav, Atiki not doing anything at all.

Killing 9-2 infernal Narcian with 3* Narcian was a bit too much effort for my tastes, even levelling him up to 40 was tiresome. Finally managed to do the right amount of damage with a Cecila so the buffed 3* could finish off the last few HP. So afterwards I took a shot at the infernal GHB and somehow cleared it at the first try (Rein, Nino and 2 dancers). Whyy the hell didnt you do that first, dumbass.

Didnt quite work out for me, I have repositions on both rein and lyn, and my Azura ended up dying. Figured out how to do it on that try though. I replaced Lyn with BIke, who swapped places with Azura (at 1 hp) and tanked the 2 remaining on the left side. He's a -atk chump, but apparantly still a champ! Not sure why this one was so hard for me when everyone else seem to breeze through. Too many glass cannons and hardly any baiters, I suspect.

Okay so I'm not getting another dancer on the banner, apparently (ach, mein money). I did get a 5* +atk -spd Effie though! So the dilemma now is; do I feed her the brave+ from a bad iv Cordelia, or save cord for merging sometime down the line and promote someone else to give Effie the + lance?

I've been going up and down between 18 and 19 in the arena, which has been pleasantly low effort. Would Effie, BK+1, Rein+1 or Brave Lyn and bonus unit be enough to get me up to 19-20 territory? With pivot on Effie, swap on BK and repos on Rein/Lyn I should be okayish for movement.

My horse team got bumrushed no matter what I did. Turns out that BK, Julia with green tomebreaker and fort res'ed (dont know if that was needed), healer and dancer did it easily. BK baits ninja in the leftmost danger spot, julia baits green mage and ursula in the spot next to him.

My non-beefed up (non-Hec) armor team doesnt do much either.. Rein and BLyn also seem bad on a defence team these days, probably because the recent meta is very anti-them.
