Randoman Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 So in a similar vein to the "I Want To Know One Thing!!" Fates thread, I decided to make a similar thread for Fire Emblem Heroes, since I'm sure many people have a one or a few small questions that they don't want to make a thread for. If any mods think this thread should be pinned, feel free to do so. Anyways, how are Raigh and Sofia's weapon types handled? I mean, they're dark mages, but since Heroes mainly uses the fire/wind/thunder magic triangle, I'm wondering if dark magic was kept, or if they switched them over to anima magic (and if it's the latter, are they fire? Thunder? Wind?). Also, how is attacking with healers handled? I've only heard that they have a skill for it, but not much details besides that (like is it magical or physical, what weapon type is their attack considered to be, etc.). I'm also wanting to ask what weapon type each character uses (since some character weapon choices like Caeda with swords or Frederick with axes greatly deviate from their normal/typical weapon used), but I suppose I'll need to be patient with this question, since that's a lot of data to compile in only the second day of the game's release.

eclipse Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 (edited) 1. Dark Magic falls under the weapon triangle - for example, Raigh's weapon progression is Flux -> Ruin -> new spell thingy. It's under red. 2. Looks like it's a physical attack for half damage (pending more numbers). What makes it "good" are the effects tied to the attack (lower movement, invert boons, etc.) 3. MOST characters have the weapon you'd expect. Caeda/Palla have swords FSR, Raven has an axe, and Corrin's weapon varies by gender. . .as a short list of examples.

Ryuke Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Seems like everyone character has a respective class. Is there a different between Myrmidon and Mercenary. Or in this game. They are the same thing except stats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrm-type characters more often than not learn Astra, while Mercenary-types get Sol instead. That's really the only differentiation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Do Characters have set growths, is it tied to rarity, or is it just random? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koji Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I have a character that I've leveled to level 19 and the game says you can "unlock potential" at level 20 but they aren't gaining any more experience. Is this because there's no more "potential" to unlock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Is there any way at all to get certain color badges, other than waiting a week? All I have is colorless badges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this because there's no more "potential" to unlock? Are you killing level-appropriate enemies? In this game, your Heroes stop gaining EXP when they're a certain threshold above an enemy's level. 1 minute ago, Rezzy said: Is there any way at all to get certain color badges, other than waiting a week? All I have is colorless badges. So far as I can tell, the Training Tower gives out badges, but only one kind a day. You'll have to wait for the color you want to be in-stock then grind on the training tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Can you just not merge a character with 4 or more stars? I'm never able to, even it its two of the same 4* character or a 3* into a 4*. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaining exp has to be relative to your level (-/+ 5) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much! Why on earth would they make that a default option? It makes merging confusing. It's a nice feature to not be able to merge favorited characters to prevent any accidents, but they really didn't make this very clear.

Thany Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 i havent drawn a 5 star ranked hero yet. but i do see the rankings for obtaining is going up. my question is... when you draw that 5 star hero ( or 5 star focused hero) how much of the percentage goes down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaximillian Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 3% is the default rate, plus additional 3% roll for focus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 What happens when you run out of story battles? I have 4 maps left to go on Chapter 9 normal, and I cleared up to Chapter 5 on Hard Mode. Is there any other way to earn orbs, or are you stuck with forking over cash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Give Lunatic a whirl. Once you're done with all the story chapters, it's a matter of waiting, whether it be login bonuses. For now. The game's been out for about 24 hours, so who knows what the future has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Does anyone know what the 5th zone in the bottom right corner of the battle map menu is? Also, there are no paralogue maps yet, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind working to earn more orbs, I just don't want to be forced to pay for them. Edited February 4, 2017 by Leif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezzy Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Does terrain like trees give defensive bonuses or does it just slow movement? 2 minutes ago, Leif said: True.

mewyeon Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Certain missions provide orbs as rewards? Where they at? Also: units don't max out at level 20, right? But you can upgrade them by a star point once they reach level 20? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No paralogues yet, indeed. 28 minutes ago, Rezzy said: Does terrain like trees give defensive bonuses or does it just slow movement? Trees only slow movement (cost a full turn for infantry to enter) and prevent cavalry from entering. 8 minutes ago, mewyeon said: Also: units don't max out at level 20, right?

Zapp Branniglenn Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 When you upgrade a unit's star rating, do they maintain their level, SP, and/or learned skills? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level goes down to 1, stats go down to lvl1 bases for that rating, SP and skills stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
