Fire Emblem Heroes: (ed. NOT) Still Waiting for Tellius

[commandercool]

How are there still people with teams of +6-10 meta units with competitive sets in rank 16 in the arena? Are they just very new whales who haven't quite risen through the ranks yet or something?

What a great way to wake up to a random 5* I don't have from a gacha I wasn't even trying at lol. Got myself a 5* Elincia from the flier buff pool from my free roll is she good?

Elicnia is great, I was bummed I didn't get one.

Hmmm... maybe I'll train her when I get a chance to.

there are free rolls in this game?

They made the first roll on every banner free some time ago, yes.

Careful though it can go either good or bad.

[commandercool]

Careful though it can go either good or bad.

What do you mean by that?

[7TC7]

It never goes bad. Either you get a cool character, an inheritable ability or at least some feathers for free. No reason to not always pull the freebie.

On the topic of Elincia. I'm pretty sure she is the best/only good red flier we have, so yes, she's good to have. I pulled her while failing to get Young Tiki from the dragon gauntlet banner and can't be disappointed.

[commandercool]

Notably the free pull counts for discounting later pulls in the same session, so if you also take all the other summons when you get it then you can have five characters for 15 stones.

[MewMewHeart]

I meant by you could end up with a crappy dupe.. but, I might have Elincia trained up... with my Camus training team.

[commandercool]

Wow, I'm really surprised to see to how much Ursula holds up as a bullshit hero battle. I remember it being really really hard at the time, and while beating it has become pretty easy, beating it with Sharena landing the killing blow is still extremely difficult.

Edit: I found Infernal to be pretty tricky as well. Only won because the AI made suboptimal attacks three different times for some reason.

I am never going back there again 1 time is enough...

If you need Sharena to land the killing blow, you can just find Ursula in the developer maps or in the story mode.

[commandercool]

Oh fuuuck I forgot that works! Anybody remember off the top of their head which story chapter she's in?

9-3, but I hear the developer map is easier. Do the 2nd dev map.

Why do we still not have beast transformations? This would have been the perfect opportunity to sneak one in, instead of giving me no reason to summon colourless again.

Green Mage Armour and Red Flier Mage however? Yes please.

GOT A FAE

[MewMewHeart]

Welp both me and commandercool called it Halloween banner and omfg Sakura and Jakob look cute.~

[commandercool]

I mean it certainly wasn't a long shot. I'd be happy to have any of them but don't particularly need any of them.

[commandercool]

So... Arden's voice actor is doing like a 30% Rodney Dangerfield impression, right..?

[Chaore]

Halloween Henry seems potentially interesting out of the set but I am both out of orbs because they brought out the anti-bun guns, and also this set bores me to pieces aesthetically.

[MewMewHeart]

Ok so we get: 1 Red, 2 Grays, and 1 Green for the Halloween banner. Oh this is gonna be fun....

[commandercool]

Oof, I didn't look closely enough at the Halloween characters before now to notice that they include a new Armor March and Hone Fliers,  which may be the two most sought-after abilities in the game. I think I have to try to pull Nowi even though she's... distasteful.

Sakura is great too. Honestly all four of them seem excellent. Jakob is the worst I think but he's definitely still unique and interesting.

[Chaore]

I just wanted Henry.

And I walked out the first 40 orbs with sakura and Nowi.

Help.

edit: Nuhhh the nowi's stats are also bad (-hp/def) but that B skill pretty much justifies her alone i demand a recount)

[commandercool]

Nowi is nuts. I was trying to figure out what I was going to do with her if I pulled one earlier. I was really hoping I could justify inheriting her onto someone so I don't have to use a half-naked child on my team but she's reeeeally gooooood...

But I don't have one yet. Given a month I imagine I'm going to pull her, but I've been wrong before.

[Chaore]

Nowi is nuts.

Honestly I love free resources so I highlighted perhaps the wrong part, but yes.

She's another on the list of 'HEY NINTENDO WHEN YOU GOING TO ONE-UP YOUR BASE AND ACTUALLY INTRODUCE IV CHANGING ITEMS YET?', because god damn that kit works.

[BT]

I don't see how Witch Nowi is any more distasteful than Normal Nowi.

Anyway, this might be the first banner in a while where I keep my orbs to myself!

[commandercool]

She's not, but normal Nowi is pretty skeevy.

[hyorinryu]

I threw 50 orbs and got Henry. -SPD and +RES. I'm debating if I want the others.

People go nuts whenever Nowi gets brought up regardless, I just see it as a meme at this point.

[7TC7]

I pulled Nowi pretty much immediately and now i'll wait and see whatever the half-of-month banner brings before deciding if i go for Henry.
