    Holding out for a chance to part 2 of Sacred Stones/Awakening on the beach huh?

    Well you never know.

    The reason I want part 2 is because I feel totally gyped out of 2 sacred stones summer units. Now that would be fine if they just decided to do 2 from each game but instead they choose 2 more awakening units. So the image as far as I can tell is that fates/awakening is worth 6 units but ss is only worth 2. I thought we were past this with IS.  I don't need perfect representation, but at least give me a full ss banner not a half a one...

    Now that I think about it all the seasonal banners this year have been split with at least two games represented like @Lushenand @Nanima said. So I guess the next special banner will have at least two games represented again. One will probably be Fates and the other could potentially be any country but Awakening (they wouldn't have two new consecutive summer banners with Awakening characters on both would they?). Then again I'm usually bad at predicting new banner units in general.

    I'm hoping for 2 more SS units and 2 more Awakening units because I really want Ephriam and Eirika but I doubt that's going to happen.  If not I'll just blow my 600 orbs on more Innes.

    Since last years summer banners are both up now I am really starting to wonder if July's special heroes banner is going to be another beach banner. Maybe they will do something different this time like a fireworks festival or maybe even another Hoshido themed banner like a summer yukata themed banner and they will also throw a random Nohrian character like Elise just for the fun it.

    It'll probably be a summer banner.  Maybe theyre releasing both now to try and get people to spend all their orbs before the second banner from this year pops up.

    I wonder if IS would celebrate in any way if heroes won?

    I really don't care about teen choice awards, but it seems funny enough to see a very japanese game win an american awards show, then again persona V did pretty well at the game awards last year, though one could argue that the game awards isn't the most mainstream awards show out there.

    Last year we got 2017 feathers and 20 orbs - but for a different rewards. IIRC this happened twice but I cant remember what the award shows were.  I think DICE was one of them.

  5. So last year I tried really hard to get a SGaius with decent/favorable IVs.  Instead I got one -spd SGaius and SEVEN SFredericks. 

    Did my free pull today.   Guess what?  SFrederick.... He's +7 now and he still sucks.

    Sounds like a pretty corrupt reason to vote for it.  But honestly, I wouldn't even hope.  How would Nintendo/IS even know who voted for them?

    Yea, I mean to be entirely honest I have very little repsect for award shows and I kind of think they're bringing it upon themselves to put a mobile game who has previously given us rewards for winning award shows as a nomination. And to me having a retweet event to determine the winner is just silly.  Especially when they probably don't even verify that the submission is from a teen (I'm 23).  For one thing twitter has a demographic bias from many different angels.  I do think FEH is better than most of the games up there though - perhaps BotW is higher quality but that game is probably too old to win as a single player title.

  7. So FEH was nominated for the Teen Choice Awards for some reason.  Now you might be thinking - there's no way we can beat Mario, BotW, Overwatch, and Fornite.  But there is.  Unlike the aforementioned games, we might actually get something for getting them to win and most people probably dont have any incentive to vote for the game.  So retweet, maybe we'll get lucky.  So far we've got over twice as many votes as Fortnite - but this is the first day.  Of course we may not get orbs even if it wins, but we can hope.

     

  8. So I didn't actually realize I could sort by favorite's color until today.  I set all my fodder to orange.  Fodder units are classified as units that I would be willing to fodder if a unit I really love comes along and needs it - not necessarily units who are exclusively fodder (so even Ayra is fodder).

    Really helps me shift through my units to see what I have available.  Like this Chill Spd... I'd give it to my +spd Flying Innes in anticipation for firesweep who wont need a B slot but I think I would prefer Chill Def because his spd will be high enough to double everything (but not his atk).  Its nice to be able to see what I have available at a glance instead of having to shift through gamepress looking for all the units that have 'x' skill and all the different skills I don't have.


    Also set my summer units to blue for reasons.

  9. So normally I really hate BA3 Desp3 but I have a -def so....

    Ephraim (+atk/-def)
    Fury 3
    Desperation 3
    X
    Brash Assault 3

    Thoughts as a budget build until I get +atk/-spd Ephraim in which case I'll figure something else out?  Otherwise I'll just hold him in storage some more.

  10. Alm : 8/10 : Fairly obvious as to why, he is the best dragon counter in the game (that I know of).  And w/ Renewal built in he can be kited around the map to heal up and kill more dragons if need be.  Pretty solid unit even outside of dragons, though there are better options if you already have a team capable of killing dragons.

    Lukas : 8/10 : Really underrated unit.  People credit Ayra for being able to ORKO blues but no one gives this guy any credit for being able to EP ORKO greens.  He can also take care of red dragons and might be able to get the drop on a red mage, but really he's just the best physical tank in the game.  Sure there's armored units, but outside of an armor emblem I'd rather have Lukas who can actually run away from mages (which he'll need to do).  Currently have +9 Lukas and IS won't give me my last one.

     

    also while we're on the topic of Lukas, I'd like to mention that it is possible to ORKO Nowi if you use an Ignis build instead of the standard Bonfire.  Is it worth it?  Probably not for most people but just wanted to throw it out there since Nowi is so common and lots of people fault Lukas for not being able to deal with her when he can w/ Ignis.  

  11. Maybe I'm reading too much into this but,

    The original Innes was drawn by Teita.  We know this artist is still active with IS because Saias is fairly recent.   Yet, they went with Ephraim and Eirika's artist, Asatani Tomoyo.  We've seen them have one artist draw a pairing like the two morgans, ephraim & eirika, Shiro and Siegbert, SpSharena & SpAlfonse.  Is it possible that they moved the artist because he drew an Ephraim too that will be in the next banner?

    It's also possible (and perhaps more likely), that they switched artists because Asatani Tomoyo seems to have a more playful art style than Teita and maybe a summer seasonal wouldnt have been a good fit for Teita.  

    But hoping there's an Ephraim coming....

    Every single one of those options is 5-star-exclusive right now, and the Sacred Seals are still limited to 1 per team. A C-slot skill costs you Hone Fliers (or a different buff), and a B-slot skill costs you Desperation (which is pretty much necessary for tome fliers not named Camilla at the top of Arena Assault).

    I'd put a Flier Formation Sacred Seal on every one of my fliers (except Nowi and Myrrh) if I had the option to do so, but I don't, so I personally value those effects on the weapons rather highly.

    You probably have a lot more fliers then me then lol.  For me, using the seals is not an issue since while I have like 7 fliers, they're not good enough to make a full flier team and I only like 2 of them (valter and innes).

    14 Mt and +3 Spd pretty much makes it a better option than anything other than Raudhrblade+, and it has one of the best non-combat effects in the game, especially for a flier.

    The Grand Conquest nodes that gave all fliers Flier Formation showed me just how amazing the 2-range teleportation skills were on fliers. I now have zero intention of ever replacing Grimoire on Nowi, and I can't really imagine replacing Idunn's Fruit, either.

    Yea I mean I was assuming Rauroblade.  There's also Rauorowl which has some nice synergy w/ flier teleporting.  Even outside of a flier team, buffs have gotten so easy that blade tomes work for anything.  And the thing about her abillity is there are so many different skills between C, B, and your seal for flier teleportation that you don't really need a weapon to do it too.  The +3 spd is why I'm leaving it for now b/c I don't like blade tomes, but when a viable inheritable tome comes out in the future I'll probably grab it (even like Rauroserpant which would make her res go from meh->slightly bulky.)

    Summer Innes is a fast axe flying axe user which is new, but there are already several powerful flying axes.  Summer Cordelia, well we have tons of lance cavalry, she's fast but otherwise not extraordinary.  

    Innes is the fastest axe flier and cordelia is the fastest cavalry.   Innes pretty much replaces Minerva as the best axe flier because speed is better than wo dao effect.

    Tana is probably slightly better than H Nowi but it doesnt matter much.

    They gave these units great stat spreads because they don't have prfs.  This ensures they will continue to be useful as IS adds more inheritable skills and such but they'll never be top tier b/c they lack top tier prfs and will probably never get any.  

    Tana might as well not have a prf, its bad - especially for a flier.


    I think Innes and Tana are by far the best.  Personally, I like Innes.

  15. Thoughts ?

    Normally, I would say you'd never want to use Miracle.  However, in this specific case I think it might be usable.  Typically w/ desp builds you go with moonbow but that's because you normally have a slaying weapon.  She doesnt have the def or res to use bonfire/iceberg.  And she doesnt want HP back from something like Aether.  So really its either use moonbow which will only work for half of the encounters or Miracle which should charge after two encounters (get knocked into desp range and desperation double someone else)

    Tana sounds very noble and refined which is a little weird considering she isn't like that at all. 

    You mean her VA?   Yes, she's very brash in her game.  Maybe these units were pulled from after the war and she's more mature now though.

     

    @HildaYea I agree slaying is his best (though it would be nice if firesweep came along).  Brave is still useful on units like Cherche w/ high atk low spd and emerald is useful on bad units to make them usable.

  17. I pulled optimal Innes and Tana.  I don't really care about Tana atm - anyone got some build ideas for Innes?  I feel like he could do a lot of different builds.  

     

    One thing that annoys me is with any axe unit who doesnt have a prf, its pretty much either slaying, brave, and emerald.  There are no 'unique' inheritable axes like some of the tomes, guard bow, berukuts lance, etc.
