Othin Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 8 minutes ago, DefyingFates said: Agreed. In fact, I'm expecting Verdande to appear in another banner. I just thought it was worth mentioning here (since Azura canonically uses lances, after all). Because of my FE8 bias I'm hoping Tethys gets it, honestly. Anyway, what are the odds of us getting a FE15 banner in October? Red Bow Alm would be pretty likely then. Tethys with Verdande would be cool. I'm curious whether they'd be willing to do that on a normal banner, or just some sort of seasonal one. FE15 does seem overdue for its next banner, considering how recent it is.

Simpsons138 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) If Verdandi is added, it’ll most likely be a lance, I don’t see Tethys as a lance unit, more like a dagger unit or a tome, red dagger maybe?, please IS, give us a Legendary Dancer/Singer, YOU KNOW WE WANT IT!!!!!

Fabulously Olivier Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 6 hours ago, Etrurian emperor said: I don't think Ylgr really fits the title of ''legendary hero'' So far every Legendary Hero has actually been a legendary person. We got kings, a Marques, a Nomad warrior, a demon dragon and someone who really was a legendary hero in his own continent. So far every Legendary Hero has been a character with prestige, accomplishments and fame. Even the two original legandaries are a warrior princess and the heir to a kingdom. Ylgr has none of that. She's just a little girl and even if she's a princess her young age makes it unlikely she ever did anything to earn legendary status. Her big bro is a better fit to be in a Legendary Hero banner. Ylgr herself is better suited for a regular banner, a paralogue reward or a as a freebie. One of our legendary heroes (Gunthraa) is literally just a glorified compass though. If anything, we should have no original characters taking up legendary slots at all, because it comes across as insulting when we have actual characters with actual accomplishments that warrant being legendary.

Didn't Gunnthra put up more resistance against Surtr than all the FE lords put resistance against Veronica? Veronica seemed to have defeated and enslaved all the lords rather effortlessly, whereas Fjorm and Gunnthra could resist Surtr, to some extent, who is far more powerful than Veronica.

DO IT, IS! ...not as a Legendary, she wouldn't make sense, but eventually. Back on topic, with the next banner being FE4 and Legendary being Blue, what are the odds of Rein memeing his way in? Probably close to zero, but a part of me wants it anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can absolutely write it off. There's nothing even establishing Heroes as canon.

Veronica seemed to have defeated and enslaved all the lords rather effortlessly, whereas Fjorm and Gunnthra could resist Surtr, to some extent, who is far more powerful than Veronica. What exactly gave that impression? We arrived with Gunnthra in a near death state. We didn't see a fight. We do not and cannot know if the level of resistance she put up was at all significant, let alone better than what anyone else can muster. The story has repeatedly shown Surtr to be an invincible force of nature, and while Gunnthra knew part of the means to undo his defense, we do not have evidence that she performed the required rite or was even capable of performing the rite without our help; I'm inclined to say that she couldn't, because locating the shrine requires our divine summoning weapon.

Zangetsu Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 12 hours ago, Diovani Bressan said: I would like Ylgr to be the colorless hero in November. We need more original playable characters. From all original characters introduced in the game, we only have 6 playable original characters, and one of them is a alternative version (Brave Veronica). Maybe until November we had already discovered that Ylgr with the heroes is a fake one, and we get the true Ylgr. That's what a believe. (about the false Ylgr) So I'm curious about this mindset, why should she be the legendary colorless hero. This isn't me throwing shades, I'm genuinely curious she should be the colorless hero instead of someone like Leif? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, Ylgr is basically the Maria/Mist/Lissa/Sakura/Elise from Nifl, so I expect her to be a staff user, and I believe she can be a legendary hero like her sisters. She is a possibility for the Novermber's banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he is also a possibility because his promoted class has access to staves... as well as Corrin as a Hoshido Noble. If we go for popularity, Corrin would win this battle. What I am trying to say is: there are good choices for colorless heroes. Leif is a good candidate and he can be chosen if IS consider a hero from Genealogy/Thracia, but I don't believe he is one of the main names as staff unit. I believe he will have more chances as a Sword, Lance or Axe unit than a Staff unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Within the scope of Heroes, everything that happens in Heroes is canon. Especially anything that happens to the original characters of Heroes. It is Heroes canon that Alfonse is Prince of Askr just as much as it is Heroes canon that Gunnthra pulls a Rasputin on Surtr for a whole chapter or more.

I doubt that they'll make a Legendary character wield that. Personally, they should give the lance of the three Norn to Tethys, but given that the weapons have gone to Azura and Olivia, that makes it more likely that the lance would go to a remake of another dancer unit. My guess is that it will be Ninian. She was first a Blue Dragon unit, then a Blue Tome unit, and now she will be a Blue Lance unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
