While Camilla will likely be meta defining for the next year, I'd much rather have a great alt for a character I actually care about. Little luck with the regular banner. Pulled a 5 star Reyson, which saves me some feathers, I guess. I dont think Camilla will be meta defining at all. Skill Inheritance is a thing so Veronica will be still the larger threat just because of the sheer utility her stave adds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewyn Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 23 minutes ago, Ice Dragon said: So it looks like Eliwood, Micaiah, and Camilla got +1 base and +10% growths compared to Gen 3 units and Alm got +2 base and +5% growths compared to Gen 3 melee infantry. Sigrun Reveal hidden contents got +3 base and +5% growths compared to Gen 3 melee fliers. Not sure what's up with the inconsistent numbers, though. Also not sure if these are CYL-specific bonuses or if they're here to stay (would be strange if the full difference is here to stay since infantry just got a buff). That's perfectly normal and nowhere near definitive evidence for power creep. There is plenty of evidence of power creep from skills to BST to other factors. That there has been power creep isn't even an argument it is a fact. Weather one finds it acceptable or not is a different question. Gee I spent a thousand dollars to +10 Takumi back in the day, nice to see my investment was worthless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee I spent a thousand dollars to +10 Takumi back in the day, nice to see my investment was worthless. I'm not saying there hasn't been any form of power creep. I'm saying "things that were top tier at the beginning of the game are no longer top tier" is not sufficient evidence for it on its own. Furthermore, Takumi no longer being at the top of the meta wasn't due to power creep. It was due to a complete rearrangement of the meta caused by the introduction of Skill Inheritance. 4 minutes ago, Vince777 said: I thought it was weird that Ice Dragon argued against power creep two years ago but it's even weirder now that he's still doing it. "This isn't sufficient evidence of power creep" is not the same as "there is no power creep". There is a difference between pointing out faulty arguments compared to pointing out wrong conclusions. Power creep exists, but the argument given to support it was a trash argument. Edited August 16, 2019 by Ice Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Shogi Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) Clicked on the free pick summoning event too quick and thought it was the actual banner. Good thing I've already narrowed it down to 2 choices. Decided to go with Camilla because I already have a green mage flier and healers are always helpful.

Fire Emblem Fan Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share Posted August 17, 2019 I used my free summon for Eliwood, as planned, and then spent 20 orbs on a full summoning session. I wound up getting Camilla, so that's nice. I'd like to finish the set and get Alm and Micaiah, and maybe some merges, but I think I'm happy with what I got now so I'm gonna reserve the rest of my orbs for more Lyn reruns.
