Do you actually get bonus points multiple times? I thought it was double points for including one of the units. I only used two of the bonus units but I didn't think it was any different from using only one or three or four. I probably should wait to arena because I have three level 40 five stars and a level 26 four star in my team. I'm not sure if the level 26 is making my selected opponents weaker but I'm running into level 36-40 range and it's a bit underwhelming. Thank god for the lack of five star Oboro on opposing teams. 

Yeah, for some reason the german language FAQ stated it (according to reddit). It was like 2x for one bonus character, 2.3x for two, 2.6x for three and 3x for 4 bonus characters. I'm not sure how legit that was though. You do get more points the higher level your units are, so a full lvl 40 team is adviced. You also get points deducted if one of your units die. It might deduct points for damage taken and turns used, not too sure about that.

Quick question here - new to the FE world and just started Heroes. I have played through enough of the campaign to do a few rolls, but still wouldn't consider myself knowledgeable by any means. I am just wondering is it always better to use a 5 star character over a 4 star?

My current 5 stars are: Camilla, Takumi, and Kagero

Also have a number of 4 stars: Marth, Cordelia, Effie, Hawkeye, and Gunter

I am thinking that having 2 neutral in Takumi and Kagero is too much. Is it a good idea to form a team using Camila, Takumi, Marth, and Cordelia? Or should I skill be trying to incorporate Kagero? 

Thanks for any advice!

If my 4* Kagero is any indication, I would try to keep her as even though she is a "specialist" glass cannon unit, it just so happens to be a specialist against the most common type of unit in the game (Infantry). Having effective damage against Most Lords, Dragons, and Foot Archers and Mages is espically useful in places like Arenas. Though I will admit she is basically a less flexiable Archer as she doesn't offer much utility compared to the other Dagger users and you already have Takumi.

I would advise against putting Cordelia along with Camilla though. I think it would leave your team a bit too vunerable against Archers.

This ZIP-file should have all the character art and sprites =). Haven't actually downloaded it myself though, so let me know if it's legit!

Yes thank you! It have the art and the sprite sheet (like you need to build the fullbody sprite)! Too bad, that Takumi sheet is missing haha, but everyone else is here! (for what I see, maybe there are some more missing)

Thanks a lot!

A second set was released, which should have everything included. I'll post that later. @Birdy I'll link it in here tonight (i have it at home).

 

Age Old Question:

Send Home (for Feathers) or Merge With. 

My situation: two 4* Roys (one Lv1, one Lv22) and two Setsunas (one 4* Lv23, one 3* Lv1). I lack any other bow user, after ditching Virion who was just no bueno after genuine hard work. I am using Roy/Setuna, but I'm just not sure if the impact from merging is worth it with them 4* halfway to Lv40 and lol20kfeathers.

Hi all, started another thread but only one answered so looks like this is the better place to ask:

 

1. I currently have a team of Camilla, Lucina, Kagero and Raven (all 5*). So Green x 2, Red, and Grey. Should I be using Gems to get a Blue in there? I used 20 orbs to try and get one and got Raven (before that the team was a 4* Jeorge instead of Raven, so two Greys instead of two Green). I do have a 4* Odin as my sole Blue that is above 2* but he doesn't seem much good to me (I am open to being told I am wrong!)

2. Raven aside (level 17) they are all level 25+. As they are 5* already, do I just keep levelling them up and don't touch anything else with them? They have skills unlocked, though not all are up graded fully, do I just work on using the characters so I can get the SP to max all the skills?

3. Speaking of skills, do they change at all? Should i save SP therefore, or just use them to unlock skills as soon as I have enough?

4. I don't understand merging Allies at all, sorry. Like I got 2 x Donnel's from the Special Maps today. They are both 2* silver. Is there any use to these two troops at all? Also I have a 3* Odin as well as my 4*, can I do anything there to help Odin?

 

Thanks very much in advance :-)

Just bumping these, I think being in the UK might mean everyone is asleep when I post in the morning!

Sounds good, thanks! xD

Hmm, what will you use the feathers for? If you want to use the feathers to upgrade Roy/Setsuna, then you don't need to send them home, because merging them decreases the feather cost for unlocking their potential by as much as sending them home would give you (300 I believe?). You also get the 600 feathers back if you decide to send home the merged +1 unit (900 for +2, et cetera) after a while.

So, unless you want to use the feathers on other units than Roy/Setsuna, it's pretty safe to merge them.

Sorry, missed that one!

1) Odin would be good, since you also don't have Magic damage on your team. If you have some orbs, I'd say indeed give summoning a shot. I think summoning is the best worth for orbs anyway ^^.

2) I'd say use them on the chapters which they are not too overleveled for, because you'll waste EXP/Stamina with that. It's good to have a second team ready, if you have that luxury, to take over from your main team when they are a bit overleveled :). Otherwise, I'd say go for it.

3) You unlock skills manually. Go to 'Allies' then 'Learn skills' and you can spend SP to get some skills.

4) Merging two same units gives the source unit a bonus of SP. If those two units also have the same star count, they get a level-up increasing two of their stats by one.

 

I can expend on answers a bit if you wish, but this is the main gist of it. Hope it helps and let us know if you have more questions!

I'm not getting the quest reward for completing Hard 2-5, even though I completed it a while ago for the February quest with Alfonse. Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to redo the map? While the map doesn't take too much stamina, I don't want to waste it by replaying Hard 2-5 if I won't get anything out of it.

Hmm, if I remember correctly, I believe one of the conditions was that no one could die doing that map to get the reward. Might that have been the problem?

Really? It simply says "Clear Chapter 2: Part 5 on Hard." But either way, none of my units died the last time I cleared the map, so I don't think that's the problem. ;;

Ah, that can't be it then. The only thing I could think about is that you completed it before the hard quests were available. So you cleared Chapter 2: Part 5 with Alfonse and some time afterwards, you cleared all the normal quests and thereby unlocking the hard quests. They don't take into account what you already did before. Might that be it?

Ah, that sounds plausible. I prioritized completing the February quests first, so I hadn't unlocked the hard quests yet at that point.

So I do have to replay it then, aw. But thank you for the response(s)! :)

I actually had sort of the same problem. I did some hard mode chapters before finishing the normal ones, only to see I had to do some of then again after completing all the normal chapters xD.

Anyway, glad to be of assistance, good luck! =)

Does the torch castle upgrade is permanent???

Yep, all the castle upgrades are permanent!

I've got 4* Merric, Setsuna, Bartre, Roy and Fae that I'd like to promote sooner rather than later. Also I've got a 4* Fir, Clarine and Tiki (FE:A) that I'm just starting to grind. So many needs, but since you say that they reduce the cost for them, I had forgotten that and may as well consolidate them with a merge.

 

I've got Anna and Sharena to their two star but I'm having the darndest luck getting the necessary badges for them to bump em to 3*. Curses!

I know right! So much to do, so little time feathers.

Also, I believe Anna and Sharena (and Alfonse!) start out as two stars already xD. I'm guessing you can get the neccesary badges in the coming two days, since today was red, yesterday was nothing and playing the tower on sunday gave you random color shards/crystals/badges, so blue and green should be coming soon!

Sorry, another question. I assume the answer is "the 4* dummy" but I have two Odin's. One is a 4 star with Blarblade. One is a 3 star with Elthunder.

 

Now if I list by rarity Elthunder actually comes up as the more valuable. But I assume I go with the 4 star Odin to level?

Sorting seems to be fairly broken and doesn't work half the time for me either.  But yes, you ALWAYS want to level up the higher * character.  They end up with much higher stats and have better starting and available skills.  You can merge the higher * character with a lower * character to get some SP.  There is no real reason to keep a lower * character if you have the higher * version of them.  And the upgrade costs are beyond ridiculous (20,000 lol!)

Just an FYI, but Odin is fairly trash tier.  I have a 4* Odin as well and tried to use him, but he was pretty useless and hit the bench in short order.

I just rolled a 5* Azura. Right now my team has a 4* Lissa as my healer. Which one is better in the long run/better to use in general? Do I use Azura or Lissa?
My other members are Cordelia 4*, Effie 5* and Young Tiki 5*

I feel like if I bring Azura in, thats 3 lance users. But Azura is a higher tier than Lissa. So Im in slump who to pick.

There is no limit to how much SP you can get. You may cease leveling and getting the SP from that, but you can still get it from fighting enemies of equal level in training tower 

That said, Threaten Speed MAY allow your team to double attack or avoid being doubled while Vengeance will always get you a 20% damage increase over the first special.

 

Personally I'd take Vengeance but you should still be able to get both.

I see. I'll probably get Threaten Speed first then. I want to get the max level for guaranteed doubling and I don't find Retribution to be that useful as is.

I would say Azura. She can refresh other units thanks to "Sing" and her overall stats shouldn't be bad either.

Does anyone have a level 40 (or mid-30s) 5* Raven they can post stats for?

If everyone is really going to get 10,000 feathers from that Twitter thing, I'll be a short bit away from being able to upgrade a 4* to 5*. I told myself I'd upgrade Jeorge first since he's my favorite, but now I'm thinking I should do Raven first to deal with all those blue units in the arena. Hoping I can see how someone else's 5* Raven turned out before I spend that ridiculous amount to upgrade.

Closest I could find was this. It was created by a user with help of members sending in their statistics, so while probably believable, it's still better for someone to post a picture instead like you asked.

Anyway, the Raven stats here are (boons - banes unknown):

HP: 41 

ATK: 39

SPD: 33

DEF: 25

RES: 22

WHere do I collect the feathers from the arena reward?

Just log in and click on the arena. If you were eligible for rewards, it should give you them there.
