Fire Emblem Fan Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 This Grand Conquest really moved me around. First I was on Palla's team, then I was on Est's for the second round, and now in the last round I've been placed on Catria's team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSSKG151 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Was on Palla's team for the first two rounds and now Catria yanked me away for the final round. Would have liked the idea of being on Palla's team the whole way through but I'm fine with how things ended up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeo Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Yeah, I got switched to all three teams this time. First Palla, then Est, now Catria. Catria is my favorite so it was a pleasnt suprise. They really should just have you on all three teams every time. I generally never get to be on my favorite's team. I got Edelgard twice then Dimitri once, got Eliwood twice and Hector once, you see there's a pattern, here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had 248 orbs but wasted all of them trying to get B! Lucina because I thought she was cool. Then I realised she's obsessed with papa, who I don't like at all. Also, I didn't a single 5 star, but I got three consecutive all donnel picks. I got lucina by accident several months later. I foddered her for feathers so i could 5* someone. (Reinhardt, who I foddered later to +2 L'arachel.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I didn't play GC much on the first round and am paying for it. If nothing else, I didn't grab the two lances from the training stratum quests and now I'm 2 recharges shirt of tier 25. Ugh. Est - Palla - Palla for what it's worth.

Ice Dragon Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Again reminded of why I hate Grand Conquest. Why does this piece of shit game mode still exist? Also, my finger now tingles like mad from rapidly tapping the screen for 2 hours straight of auto-battling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im weirdly fond of GC because of the reward to effort ratio(just autobattle for ez 15k+ feathers) but i can see why you hate it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I play on Lunatic so I can still manage to get to Tier 25. I find Lunatic to be the sweet spot of being almost guaranteed to win while almost mindlessly marching Enemy Phase units forward.

I used to hate it myself but then I got into Aether Raids but now I don’t even care about it enough to hate it. Case in point, I left two orbs on table (I finished at Tier 20) because I couldn’t be bothered to slog through that mode any further.

mampfoid Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Speaking of (un-)likable modes, this is how I value Event modes currently (only gameplay, not the rewards): Hall of Forms > Tempest Trials > Røkkr Sieges > Forging Bonds > Grand Conquest > Voting Gauntlet = Tap Battle Lost Lore doesn't count, because there is nothing to play and Relay Defense seems to be out. TTs have been my favorite mode for a long time, but it needs a renovation. It's not a big challenge anymore and it could use some story elements like FB. Hall of F(j)orms is a great new mode, but it doesn't even have an ending sequence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daisy jane Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Well I personally lIke GC.. it's one of the only modes i'm actually good at, i think every map is fun and challenging. It's better than just hitting a big sponge for points which is what Rokkr is. that one can go away any time, and bring something else fun. (I play infernal 1 manually all the time). I finished top 2 in the end. (per usual. i usually spend allmy lances, get tier 25 and just end up where i may). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoaFerox Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I like Grand Conquest. I usually autobattle on the first Infernal difficulty until about turn 7 or 8, and then I try to "solve the puzzle" of destroying the castle before time runs out. I realize this is not how the mode is meant to be played, but this way it requires very little effort while still providing some fun situations to think about. I could probably score higher more consistently if I did it manually, but it takes too much time, and I don't lose much in the way of rewards anyways. Getting to use the units of your friends is also pretty fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diovani Bressan Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 For Grand Conquest players, here's an idea to make it more interesting: Play the mode with an empty brigade team. The game will give you random 5* units. Try to beat each map with different units each time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 The thing with GC for me isn't the gameplay - after all, like all the other modes it's just autobattle - but that it has the smallest margin for error in terms of getting all the meaningful rewards, orbs in particular. Essentially, I have to remember to play it every day it's on to get to T25. For the other modes, doing "badly" generally just means a few thousand feathers less, and the ones that award orbs do so trivially. TT you can mow down the 50k point mark pretty easily, then generally it's just 3k, 4k or 6k rank feathers on top depending how active you are. Rokkr Sieges point targets are trivial and the mode only requires effort if you want the accessories. Hall of Forms was completed halfway through the event duration and there was no further reward for continuing. VG performance is just feathers, since you can abuse force-restarting the game to get the quests done for orbs even if you have no stamina. Forging Bonds is just driven by effectively-infinite stamina. Tap Battle daily reward quests are trivial, the rest you can do in just one session with unlimited attempts.

Lemmy Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I’ve developed a habit of skipping the third round of GC, I don’t find it fun and the rewards aren’t worth my time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mampfoid Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 In the first GC events I could reach tier 25 on day 3-4 with autobattle only, but the never units made it more difficult for my 2017 friend units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seafarer Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Huh, I didn't realise so many people don't like GC. I'm with @Humanoid; the margin for error for all the rewards is too small for me (as in, impossible without doing Infernal or staying up past midnight on three of the days). Plus I don't have good enough EP units to autobattle even Lunatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelgius Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I like the idea of GC, but the way it is just now is too much of a grind for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daisy jane Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 So i decided. If Julia returns in Feb (with Azura) i am not going to bother +10ing out elincia. (I might) fish for a few copies depending on how well i can save up by then (I do feel i need to do a DC/CC pit stop. especially how rare CC is) I'm thinking Feb might not be a Full Legendary/Mythic blue party which means that one of Summer Lyn/Petra/Dimitri will be there. (not complaining!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That relies on Lukas in December and then both Pent and Laegjarn in January, which seems unlikely. If we assume one seasonal a month instead, that puts Lukas and Dimitri/new Legendary as the other December one, Pent in January, and Laegjarn in February. From a selfish perspective, Azura-Julia-Laegjarn would be my preference and I'd hope to have 500+ orbs saved up for it.

I don't mind Naga i truly don't (even though i don't think she's that 'great" compared to other flying dragons). but i just want to have a +10 Azura. as Lancezura is Out, Nohrzura shares with Inigo, BabyZura needs grails, and Airzura is a seasonal, Legendary is where it's at.
