r_n Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 So excited to have a date on this, I just wish it would have come on the 14th. I've been intentionally going slowly through Warriors so I could use a dang infantry lance set. The costumes are also pretty nice. I dig Butler Takumi a lot. Kiiiind of surprised we didn't see a Caeldori costume for Cordelia, but I suppose their designs aren't as different as Owain/Odin (almost certainly happening, lets be real) or Tharja/Rhajat. Or maybe saved for the awakening pack. Awakening: Featuring More Fates Touching on the weapon conversation, I do wonder what's going on with that. The numbers listed on the SD & Awakening packs only line up if you count their DLC units (And Anna as SD), but Azura, Oboro & Niles are clearly wielding their own weapons. Maybe they just forgot the line about it in the eshop blurb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardin Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 If there is an Odin costume, they won't release it before Owain is playable. That's just common sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMinairo Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I hope we get a Camilla/Azura support, I don't get why it wasn't in fates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Azura is getting a full page to show her off, while Oboro and Niles are cramped into a single page segment smaller than the one for the 4 costumes. I'd guess if Niles had a new moveset/fighting style compared to his npc self and other archers they'd be highlighting it there, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Because characters in Fates only had three same-gender supports (+1 in Rev for route-exclusive characters) and Camilla prioritized her retainers and Elise (and Hinoka in Rev). I, too, hope to see this support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind seeing something like that again between the two of them. Edited December 6, 2017 by Legend_of_Zelia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 10 hours ago, Tolvir said: According to a few people, the article states that he uses Lethality in his moveset. The moveset they have in game are nothing but placeholders, the same movesets every generic enemy commander and unit uses. It makes sense for them to have new movesets, in theory, considering its nothing more than a generic enemy moveset. Look at Owain for example, where he uses Ryoma's moveset and has lightning attacks. It doesnt make any sense given the situation. Chrom has lightning. Lucina has lightning. Lissa has lightning. By referencing TMS with Chrom's lightning affinity and spitballing from there, FEW kinda made it the element of the Yllisean royal family.

Zangetsu Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 *sigh*  I wish I had a Switch, the game looks good. 4 hours ago, Legend_of_Zelia said: They kind of had a nice conversation in the Nohrian Festival of Bonds DLC that never got released in US.

I'm pretty confident they will have a support since all the siblings interact with the sibling they couldn't interact with in this game.

King Marth 64 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 (edited) Good thing they managed to make an outfit for Camilla that looks properly dressed. I kinda wondered if Takumi had the butler outfit from Jakob since Takumi does have a support conversation with Jakob and the Butler suit does looked very much looked like it's Jakob's outfit as well. Also, I kinda wondered how Niles will get a support conversation with Owain when they release Owain along with the other 2 Awakening characters in the DLC in the future, I kinda wondered if Niles might look at Owain be like he probably recognizing Owain as someone he knows since Owain and Odin are the same characters and I think he's getting one for Leo as well.

r_n Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Characters will probably not have cross-DLC support conversations, these DLC packs usually don't have any cross pollination since they can't guarantee that people get all the packs.

Kahvi Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I'm actually happy about Camilla's maid outfit because her normal outfit is so hideous in my opinion. But anyway, I can't really see Niles having anything but a generic moveset since he currently uses a lot of the same moves as the other archers. But I've heard that he doesn't have a full moveset as an npc, so I suppose the missing things could be something different. Either way, I like Niles, so I'd probably get the pack just for him. At the very least, he'll make those archer only history mode maps easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Th elogic here is the exact same one as Lissa: 50% is because Chrom (family member) is associated witht he element through TMS#FE, 50% because the magic weapon from Awakening is Lighting-based (Bolt Axe, Levin sword). Owain even has a bigger thing going for him, as he can have Ryoma's "moveset" in Fates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solaris998 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Yes! Finally! Azura looks absolutely gorgeous and I am so happy she's coming, me getting a Switch can't come soon enough. Also like the new costumes, feels like a reference to Felicia and Jakob. Does anyone know when we should expect to get higher quality scans so the screenshots and text aren't so blurry when doomed in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kahvi Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Well. Those costumes on the lower right corner are certainly… something. I'm assuming those are the broken armour models that come with the pack (?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ertrick36 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Of course they'd only show off the broken armor models of the younger sisters and Camilla... And Camilla's is about what you'd expect without it being just a straight up two-piece bikini.  Come on, where's a shot of Takumi wearing his beach shorts? Or Leo in his? I need my Memekumi and Tomato Prince fanservice, goddammit! Now that we got a better quality pic, that bottom shot on the second page definitely looks like Niles using Lethality; I assume that's his special. I wonder what stylish move his fashionable counterpart is using?

Thane Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Loosely and very quickly translated, "it's not just women, but male soldiers also get their clothes torn off!"Â "A cold summer gets hot!" (shows only pictures of Camilla, Sakura and Elise). Welp, that's about what one would expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 It's the same stamina break attack every other archer has in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azz Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 (edited) From RotomGuy at Reddit: Releases December 21st. Oboro has the skill "Counter". If attacked while blocking, the enemy's stun gauge will be opened. Niles has the skill "Lethality". Increases critical hit damage dependant on luck. Azura has an ability similar to the staff use of other characters called "Dance", where she can restore the Musou and Awakening bars of her allies. A new item can be equipped in the potion/staff/dance section that increases rate of Support gain. White Bloodline F!Corrin, Dark Bloodline M!Corrin, Maid Camilla, Butler Takumi costumes can be unlocked on the new History Maps. Dark Dancer Azura is unlocked when Azura is unlocked. Every Fates character now has Broken Armour models. As suspected, History Maps are based on Mother (all routes 5), Izana's Palace (BR 9) and the Ice Tribe Village (CQ 8). Update from RotomGuy: Apparently some of the text says that Azura uses water and singing in her strings, which means that she and Oboro may have unique movesets from one another!

It could just be specials. Best just to keep expectations on that front low until otherwise stated. Oh, and does Sakura's broken armor model remind anyone else of a FF white mage?

Florete Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I want to wait for the bond talisman before building more supports but I want to play more before the DLC drops but all I really have left to do is build supports... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
