silverserpent Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Tactics Emblem is insane...I'd hate to see how cheesed it'd be if I had Spd Tactics in my team. Running Lucina+5, F!Robin+3, Camilla+5, and Clair+10 (finally got that last one!). Lucy has Atk Tactic and Camilla and Clair have the Def and Res Tactic seals. With Robin acting as the Drive bot, it's nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Selena, but she never surpassed the role of TA2/Reposition fodder in my barracks. Meanwhile I'm getting a lot of match-ups without actual bonus units in regular arena (i.e. Nephenee +0, Fir +10, Est +10, Nino +10 for a score of 712)? I thought that was only possible in AA?

I am building one of the Selenas (this one is a provisional measure until I get an Atk/HP; this one is Def/Spd): She blows stuff up. I wish I had a spare Brave Ike or a dozen. Nephenee was a bonus in the previous rotation. Those people you fought likely haven’t adjusted their teams yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard for everyone to surpass Roy and Caeda. Infantry swords have cool units like Marissa and fallen Celica. I'll wait for a refinement before to promote my +SPD/-HP copy of Selena, or even better the Awakening version of her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah, it is halved. Yours isn't. EDIT: Defense score calculation is a black box that as far as I know hasn't been unlocked yet. Certainly the wiki at least says that the way the score is calculated hasn't been determined yet. Edited June 26, 2018 by Humanoid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was more or less common knowledge that defense wins with halved score come from AA. Not that it is very important, but I haven't met one of the new summer units yet, which makes me a little sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do normal arena, face an enemy team worth 712 points. If you win, you get 712 points. If you lose, they'll get 300 points-ish. The scores don't have anything to do with each other (or technically they do, minimally, in terms of getting matched up in the first place). The 712 is calculated from the value of their team (and we know exactly how it's calculated), the 300 points will be calculated from the value of *your* team (but we don't know the exact formula).

The thing is, I don't know why, but I always assumed already the match-ups would be made calculating the score also with bonus factor. Thus in higher score ranges it would be impossible to meet defense teams without bonus units in regular arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine a whale sets a full strength team without a bonus unit. Some poor newbie with a team full of 3-star units that aren't even level 40 but including a bonus unit might end up being matched up against the whale... ouch.

Ice Dragon Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I just realized we don't have a dedicated thread for Grand Conquests? The Armor boost nodes are the best. Marching in with 8× Ward Armor and a full squad of Distant Counter armors and not having to run Armor March or Armored Boots at all is too much fun.

Cute Chao Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I missed the talk about CYL. Well, I'll say it anyway. The unit I picked was Roy, because he was my favourite of the four and it meant I avoided red hell, which wasn't as bad back then but already pretty bloated. I pulled for Lyn and Ike, and I ended up getting them quickly, although Lyn is annoyingly -Spd. I never bothered with Lucina, but she ended up being a freebie pull recently, so I got them all in the end :D As for GC, my attitude towards it is still bleh. It's just a slog that I don't find fun and only play for rewards. Oh well, at least they are trying new things in this game. Hopefully they have more fun things around the corner...

Still hoping for some sort of Battle Arcade-style chain challenge mode. I just put auto battle on half the time, and I only get slightly mad when they go straight for the big fortress when the smaller ones are literally unguarded/suicide right into the enemy.

I put it on autobattle because I find it so tedious. Same with RD. Good thing about the latter is that you only need to get some of the forts and 20 bonus points to win. GC, you can't even do that. I never get all the prizes but honestly, I'm just not motivated enough to really try for that last orb, which is the only game mode I have ever felt like that about -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
