Refa Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Yeah, that's fine. His defensive stats aren't good enough for Iceberg/Glacies/Bonefire/Ignis and his offensive stats aren't good enough for Draconic Aura/Dragon Fang. I can't see Luna being too useful on him, so that leaves defensive procs (which I don't really use that much, anyways) and Moonbow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poimagic Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Okay, I've got two skill inheritance questions. 1) I want to build my Nohrzura and I have a few ideas. She is +spd/-def which is apparently one of her best natures. As for the build, it's her vanilla set, but adding WoM and Moonbow. How does that sound? 2) I recently got sword breaker 3 fodder and I don't know who to give it to. The candidates are Nowi and M!Robin. I'm leaning towards M!Robin though as I've heard that it can work wonders for him? Who should I give it to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replacing Drive Res with a more relevant C passive would probably be better though. While there is overlap with her legendary weapon and, say, Hone Atk (4/3/3/3 instead of 7/3/3/3) Atk buffs are the most valued buff when fighting during player phase. 2. If Nowi has Triangle Adept, she does not need Swordbreaker to check Falchion users; Quick Riposte will do instead. Robin, on the other hand, can opt to run either Swordbreaker or Bowbreaker to improve his player phase and his enemy phase respectively.

And also, final question for now, what is a good support skill BK and what is better for BK, Quick Riposte or Vantage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both work, but I prefer Quick Riposte since he is more likely to be initiated against rather than initiate on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ledrert Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I'm thinking, actually, for my Arena team next season, and I'm thinking to make my Inigo as a litrlblade mage. He's -Atk +Spd. But I need advice for his A skill. What will be the best on him ? I'm thinking about L&D or Fury, but I'm not sure (and I can only have L&D2 actually, if I feed him that skill).

DefaultBeep Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 What are good skills for a +Spd/-Res Female Corrin (normal)? Right now I have everything base except for Reposition, Triangle Adept 2 (both from Selena, still waiting on another Roy), and Swordbreaker 3. Would Lightning Breath+ and Quick Riposte be better, and should her Special and A skill be changed? Also, is a +Atk/-Spd Nowi worth keeping, or should I wait for something else?

You can still give him Gronnblade, but I prefer Gronnraven to give him a little more protection from archers, although it probably will not save him from Brave Bow archers though without Triangle Adept. Giving him an offensive build is a waste of his bane in my opinion. Support units should generally avoid combat, and I would only give a support unit an offensive build if they have the right natures for it. 2 hours ago, DefaultBeep said: What are good skills for a +Spd/-Res Female Corrin (normal)?

Oh well, at least now she'll be +1 whenever I get her with +Atk. I'll just work on building both sets when I can, since player phase will be better with what I have now, while enemy phase is what I'll probably use with +Atk. Thanks! For a second question, I just pulled a 4-star +Atk/-Res Klein. I assume the boon is his best one since he has Brave Bow, but would he be any better with a different bane? With how good he is for SI (so many of my units want Death Blow right now), I'm not sure I want to use him if he's not almost completely perfect. If it is ideal though, are there any changes that I should make to his base kit? Edited October 3, 2017 by DefaultBeep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that is his best nature to maximize kills against neutral, vanilla units in the calculator. Depending on your play style, you might prefer a -Def one with so Klein can deal with mages a little easier, but the difference between -HP/Def/Res is pretty small when you have the right boons.

Yeah, the main reason I asked was because I saw his neutral Res is better than his neutral Def, so I wasn't sure if it would hurt him in the end. I'll keep him though, since getting a +Atk/-Def one specifically could take a while, and it sounds like he still works pretty well. Hinoka will have to keep waiting for that Death Blow, then.

mampfoid Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) A discussion at reddit brought me to check the numbers of Gordin. He is a surprisingly good & budget BH!Lyn-bait. At neutral 4* and with simple Killer Bow, Bonfire and Bowbreaker he kills vanilla neutral BH!Lyn +10 on enemy phase. kills vanilla neutral BH!Lyn +6 with her special active on enemy phase. survives vanilla BH!Lyn +ATK +10 with horse buffs (Hone + 2 Spur) on enemy phase. If he keeps his brave bow, then Ignis should be better to deal more damage on player phase. Btw: My 4* +ATK -HP Virion gets similar results with the same set but DEF+3 on A-slot. He is the same at HP & ATK but misses 3 DEF in comparison to Gordin. /Edit: I remembered to have a 4* -ATK +DEF Leon. He is pretty much like Gordin, but with a better killer bow and Ignis.

It is very satisfying teaching players how to prepare for the worst. I get a decent 900 Feathers compensation every week too for my generous effort.

I make slow mages with good Resistance specialize in Triangle Adept builds with Moonbow and Quick Riposte. Breakers also work. I personally would not use her for normal Arena since she is so slow, but she is great in Arena Assault when you can take a peek at your enemies. For slow mages with good Defense, I give them a Raven build with along with Bowbreaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefaultBeep Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Just got a 5-star Seliph from the Block A banner, so now that I have a 5-star +1 +Atk/-Spd Seliph, I might as well ask: what's a good set for him? Right now I have him with Tyrfing, Bonfire, Defiant Def 3, and Brash Assault 3. I was trying to work around Tyrfing, but I'm not certain anymore if that's even a decent idea, so are there better skills to give him?

I don't even have a Brave Ike for myself, and the only unit I have with Guard is a 5-star Titania, and she's nice to have for Horse Emblem. Also I'm pretty sure that Seliph is +Spd/-Atk, which seems kinda poor? Not sure how helpful that 28 Spd (30 once he hits A rank though!) would be for doubling much of anything. I'd hate to see how bad the boon/bane was on the Seliph they merged into this one. I do think I'll throw the Panic Ploy 1 seal on mine at least, I believe he has the most HP out of all my units that aren't armors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
