I work a boring desk job with lots of free time, but obviously I can't sit down and play a game like Civilization or The Witcher during work hours. FEH is pretty much the only convenient thing for me to play. My days of spending any money on the game are pretty much over though, barring special cases like the BK pack. Even if I won a million dollars in the lotto tomorrow, I wouldn't spend a cent of in on the game. There's just no incentive to do so anymore because no one unit will change my game experience meaningfully enough. Not that I was anything more than an anchovy or herring anyway, I've bought about 120-140 orbs total since launch, and I figure that's a reasonable price to pay over the lifetime of any game. Same, I would play during downtime. I feel like I lose interest in playing console games after playing FEH I said I would never spend money on this game again...then I saw Spring Kagero.

Kozac Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I feel the same as you when I started to play FEH, but I push me to play others games (FE 3DS,Castlevania...)to do not lose my interest on console games. I recommed the same to you, maybe playing an old game you like ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd pass you my spare ike so long as you don't mind a +Res/-Spd nature. Only marginally worse than the Ike I do use at +Res/-Def. I've been doing a bit more HM farming myself, but most of my caps are healers that have capped previously at 4000 while I was getting a good rank in the last TT. I could use some more feathers to finance promotions for Sully, Gaius, Florina and other low tiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redlight Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 @AnacybeleI'm guessing it's a nod to Titania's Japanese name, Tiamat. Tiamat is a Mesopotamian deity who is depicted as a dragon in some sources. In modern media Tiamat appears often as a dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redlight Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 No. I'm saying that it just might be that they're naming it draconic because of the word's association with Tiamat. We'll have to see what the effect will be, but if it's not dragon effectiveness then it's just the localization team pointing out her original name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interdimensional Observer Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I think I'll just call Katarina's refine the Peanut Butter Cup. So NoA has decided that Reese is Katarina's original assassin name? It does go well with Clarisse, much as Eine and Kleine intentionally do in Japanese, makes sense. The issue/question I have is they explained Katarina's true name in FEH before? If they haven't, well it'll leave a lot of people wondering who Reese is.

Fire Emblem Fan Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) So there's been speculation that July's Legendary might be Micaiah. If that's the case, I suspect there might be a Tellius banner. Any thoughts on what that potential banner could potentially be? My thought is probably a Dawn Brigade banner with Laura, Nolan, another version of Sothe, and Meg (which kinda upsets me because...Brom), with one of them being a TT unit. Assuming there even is a Tellius banner and assuming Micaiah is July's Legendary, of course. Edited June 30, 2018 by Fire Emblem Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewyn Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I like the units chosen to get upgrades. I have a bunch of 4 star Titanias, maybe if the upgrade is really awesome and one of them is ideal IV I will upgrade. I also got an awesome +spd Katarina as an off focus pity breaker on on the HoT banner, I'm excited to see what her PRF tome will be. I don't have Nephenee but she needed the upgrade as well, she is mostly thought of as wrath fodder even though she has a pretty good statline. All 3 units were very popular characters in their respective games, all 3 units are somewhat forgettable performance wise in Heroes even if they aren't actually "bad". In addition Nephenee and Katarina are 5 star locked even after the pool rework, and they want to justify that rarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tybrosion Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) @Interdimensional Observer Legion and Clarisse use the name too. In fact, I think they only use "Reese" to refer to Katarina in FEH.

Johann Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 @Rezzy Plot twist, what if "draconic" implies that it functions like a breath and picks the lower of Res or Def? At the very least you're guaranteed +4 Atk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For people not familiar with Radiant Dawn, every weapon type in that game has an analogue to the Blade weapons (Iron Blade, Steel Blade, Silver Blade), and Poleaxes were that for axes. My guess for Draconic Poleax is that the localization team already knows the weapon's effect and gave it the name "Draconic Poleax". If this is accurate, then that would imply that the weapon has a dragon-related effect and no cavalry effectiveness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who uses her much in places like the arena or AA? She's really not that great for anything other than killing blue dragons. We need more counters to Nowi than just those two.

I hope the weapon's effect or effects are good and make Titania better. Frederick needs more competition for best (non-seasonal at least) green axe cav. lol And this is coming from someone who obviously loves him to pieces. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are actually a lot of Nowi counters. In fact there are a lot of counters for every single unit in this game due to skill inheritance. Don't lose hope though. As Ice Dragon said there is a high probability that the Draconic Poleaxe will have some sort of effect against dragons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
