Looks like my boy gets his chance to shine in the Arena. Those merges and CC ought to help with scoring a little bit. Good thing Lyon doesn't need more work. Now it's just a question of whether I want to run him with his normal tome or refined -owl tome. I'll have to run the calcs. I'm a little bit worried about how I'll do these next few seasons, especially with Hector as a bonus unit...

Marquess Hector was all I needed to be in this group, so I’m more than set for the next two weeks.

And how cute of Lyon to show his face right after I disposed of all my copies of him because my pettiness knows no bounds.

Guys, I want your thoughts about my defense team. The units are Bartre, Erika, Valter and WOM!Hinoka. I know it would be optimal to give bonfire to Bartre(48 def) but i'll have to deal with, also I don't have Goad fliers, so I gave Spur Atk and spd to Valter to buff Hinoka. I mad this with some cheap cost, Is that correct?

If I don't get Sunkumi (which I'm praying doesn't happen), at least it will give me an excuse to finally build that Leif I got sometime in May.

Ugh, 2 hours to do my AA run. And Fire and wind are my two weakest seasons right now.

 

edit - With +25 from blessings my final score was 5251 which is good for rank #805.

I like having to force myself to use only units with blessings. It provides a nice challenge since my pool of units to work with is only 35-50 units each week. I even fielded a LV1 L!Hector on one map because my other 3 units had it in the bag.

Score report time:

  • T20 score of 3684 - #1255/6230
  • AA score of 5228 - #1280

Regular Arena I had something like 3656 initially, but the decay was starting to make me nervous, so I hashed out a streak with my armours. Never thought I'd have to deploy them to regular Arena outside of water season. Despite the VG, had a tough time getting wins. Only had one come in overnight last night.

I guess fire season is now probably RIP for score for me. I deployed all of my wind and fire units, but the fact of the matter is almost all my resources are concentrated in water, so it wasn't a particularly impressive boost. Of course it, it likely doesn't matter, since I don't have a legendary Hector +10 to bump my base score. Oh, well.

Gacha still refuses to give me more Gwendolyns, so I guess I'm still waiting on completing the AA armour trio. No Florinas, either, so I ended up building a Firesweep Cordelia. This also made me realize I need to figure out what blessing to throw on my flier team. Could be just water as I do by default, but fire's also kind of got my attention now. Also had enough excess to promote some Hinatas for Fury 3 for Soren and Caeda, so I guess I also gotta figure out where this Hardin and this axe-armour counter go for blessings. What a pain.

You are pretty close to top 1000. With only Amelia and three 160-164 BST units, I was able to get 5251. Once you get them all to +10 with high end skills you should be able to make it.

Like you, Fire is my weakest season. I have only pulled 1 L!Ephraim and 3 L!Hectors. And I haven't had time to level up L!Hector yet. Water is by far my best season. After that Earth because I was able to +10 F!Grima recently, but I still need to build a team around her and give them Earth Blessings.

My next step is to build 3 teams of +10s for 3 different seasons so that I am always able to score high in AA.

No changes from last week.  Canas's Res Tactic is useless on this team, but I couldn't be bothered to change it up since it's what he'll use anywhere else.  Hopefully IS comes up with a solution to lack of merges for TT units soon.

With Shanna as a bonus unit, next cycle is going to be fun. >=)

Because my last one was such a success in that it generated just one win within two weeks, I'm going to field another dumb themed defense team.

I can only hope, if this generates any wins to begin with, that it'll be over someone with a Roy as their lead.

Back to tier 20 and still out of the top 5k in AA, no changes so far.

Something interesting is that the arena build I gave to Eirika tends to give me 1~2 Defense wins, this time I was lazy so I left her GHB soloing skillset and now I got 5 Def wins. Guess I'll leave it for now, it is the best it can be when it comes to scoring after all.

Offense score of 3682 (T20) remains in T20, combining with a defense score of 634 for max rewards.

Teams faced (streak):

I ended up fielding a full flier team with Camilla as my bonus unit. Because +20/17/0/0 bonuses (Hone, 2x Goad, Camilla's Axe, Drive Atk) are super fair and balanced, I had Caeda break out the ol' Brave Sword+. Watching her punch through Hardins and Nowis in one round was pretty funny.

Another pretty good season. I got low-balled in AA and couldn't be bothered to fish for a better score, so I just lived with dropping out of the top 3k. Ended up with the same Arena score this week: 3668 while AA was over 20 points lower despite using the same starting team and number of blessings: 5161. Oh well. You win some. You lose some. 

I get to use Lyon this time, so I'm pretty excited to see what those stat boosts look like on him.

Good luck with that one!

Do you have Vantage, Wary Fighter and at least one WoM on your Hectors? They could net you a win even without a sympathy surrender. I think @XRay was running triple (OG) Hectors for some time.

Managed to stay in T20 for another week with a score of 3652.

I should be able to maintain it for another week with the same team. However, looking at the datamined bonus units for next season, I can say for certain that I'm going to be dropping to T19 in 2 weeks from now.

So, uh, I painstakingly built my arena team for this week based on the datamined units, only to realise when I started a battle that the bonus units hadn't changed yet for this week. Oops.

Haha, yeah did the same. "Why does my team score only 3xx on Advanced?"

I did the exact same thing, except I noticed the scores were off right away so I just canceled it during the difficulty selection. Although, in retrospect, I should've just went to the easy team and then surrendered.

I have Vantage on General while Just Here to Fight has his innate Wary Fighter. I could give all three of them Wings of Mercy if I wanted to since I got four spare 4* Cains.

Of course, this ended up not being relevant yet since we ended up getting a third week of the current set so I’m back to the Awakening OTP team.

Same, yeah. I noticed that the score for the suggested advanced team was only three hundred-something and realised my mistake.

Oh boy, inflation week. How lovely/s

I got my normal arena run done with a score of 3,636. Guess it's back to tier 19 again.

For AA I got a score of 5,152. All my matches were in the 730~736 range, if this weren´t the inflation week I'd like to think I would get in the top 5k with this.

Close, but no cigar. I've been in top 1000 something like three times total, but usually by a hair and never in a row. I just can't quite keep up. It's good to know Gwendolyn will put me in about that area, though. Right now, I'm running Draug +10, Sheena +10, Nowi +10 and Adult!Tiki +10, all with Aether and dual rallies, so even if I halfway built Gwendolyn with what I have, Tiki would outscore her. I did the calculations and +8 is where Gwen matches Tiki with a DC/Aether/Dual Rally set. Assuming Gwen's +Spd without a super bane, anyway. Alternatively, Fjorm could come back and I could actually pull her instead of spending 300 orbs for zero copies, since she would outscore Tiki with fewer merges (and then Gwen could replace Nowi), but seems the gacha just wants to thumb its nose at me for the time being.
