Water Mage Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I’m really enjoying it, though I wish we used stamina instead of Aether. Does anyone else find building defense teams and trying to manipulate how your team’s AI surprisingly fun? It’s really fun seeing how the AI will behave.

TheSilentChloey Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I'm not sure what to think but I put Grima, Aversa Lancina and Loki for kicks. Not sure how well that'll go down... I do kind of like the mode but I can see it being arena 2.0...and am dreading what will happen soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which makes Aversa particularly annoying on defense which is exactly what i did, 61 HP Aversa is delicious. I need to flesh out my Defense Team but i think i will swap in Veronica, she is just too cancerous to leave out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I can't wait until I can build a 6 unit team. How do you feel about instantly charged Aether and AoE specials? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mampfoid Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I just got my first defensive defeat. From this perspective it's bad that people don't give up after losing 1 unit, because my team managed to kill 1 unit of the enemy. I don't get this thing, how does Aversa of the offense team have 48 SPD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilda Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I am thinking about running Azama with a bunch of inantry pulse users, miracle and just burry him alive with the most defensiv crap on him... but i dont think i can even stall with Azama 7 turns because dancers make this a cakewalk (espcially Dancer and Reinhardt) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you loose 1 unit and you are the one attacking you lost the battle period, otherwise its just too easy because the AI is just dumb. Then again this brings us back to Arena 1.0 which was bad. Maybe its a good thing that in this way you have to focus on building sturdy units that maybe can outlast the 7 turns. But then again the only sturdy units are Armorers soooo Wary fighter ahoi.... coupled with Miracle? Edited November 9, 2018 by Hilda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's right. I've had a few defence losses, but I haven't lost any lift yet. How is it calculated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am starting to wonder if built up maps are less likely to be pulled in these early stages of the game mode. Every keep I battled was bare bones. So buildings may effect your matchups? No idea, just what I have observed so far. Could just be luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The replay is bugged- I can't see the whole thing. I can only see the enemy team defeat my Veronica, but Owain, H!Myrrh and L!Tiki were still standing when the replay ended abruptly. But it did say I beat all 4 units...unless that means a surrender? @Usana maybe it's also people already used up their Aether since I had no additions to Defense wins/losses. I had more losses in the other account with proper buildings but still only 1 battle (the win) in my main account.

New feature everyone burns stuff out in the early hours before I get in. I suppose that means we can expect another surge or two through out the day as different areas of the world wake up/get off work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eilanzer Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) @Usana almost all of mine was against people that did some work in the defense, i guess is rly random...dunno Im LOVING this new mode...LOVING it! To the point i could not even play/bother with arena more than one time a week ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Edited November 9, 2018 by Eilanzer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlight Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 I think the reason why aether is being held from us is because of the replays. IS's database probably can't handle it beyond what we're allowed to do. The current replays might get deleted tomorrow at the daily reset. If it's not a issue with replays then I don't know what it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usana Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I finally got a defense battle and boy do I love replays! Though I did have one moment where I was all, 'what the hell is the AI doing?! I have never seen the AI move like that be. . . I forgot that a person was controlling the attacking units, didn't I'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
