Lemmy Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I’m surprised how aggressively people are playing this, I’m worried about getting bored. I got celica tome, pent’s swift sparrow tome, and hone speed 4 on alm, so I’m not having speed problems any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingle Jangle Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Liking this mode feels like an official FE randomizer. I hope that I won't get screwed by the rng later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mampfoid Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 No idea why we can't use regular stamina for this. We can in TTs and FB. I would say this mode is as uncompetitive as Forging bonds, so let us play! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say this mode is as uncompetitive as Forging bonds, so let us play! I agree. The unifying theme of all of the modes that require mode-specific stamina is that they have a competitive element. The only motivation for the mode specific stamina here is to create difficulty, and why is that even a concern? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowi's Husband Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 This mode is fantastic, the most fun I have had in the game short of the Nowi content clears. I really enjoy getting to build these units with premium skills without having to pull for them, training them up, and how it's a theme team. So far in my run Celica and Mae have gotten most of the kills cause they got sweeper skills while Alm and Boey lag behind. Gonna go back to early levels to train them.

Thinks Their Own Way Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I'm loving this mode, my favourite thing so far has been thinking about what skills I should give them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I like how not using normal stamina means I don't have to coordinate with my normal play or have it be time sensitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I did not consider this. But that sub forum is usually just for archiving info on GHB and LHB since those get reruns. I do see the correlation since this is a not a competitive mode, but it's also not a mode where people face the same challenges at any point of their run. If the mods want to move this it's fine but I was envisioning more of a thread where we just chat about our cool builds. I also have to agree with most people's criticisms. I think I'd prefer the mode use regular stamina, especially if it's not being run alongside forging bonds or tempest trials. I also feel like there would be a cool opportunity to add Forging Bonds - style conversations for the four units. But then again narratively these are not the actual heroes, just soulless dolls who probably don't speak. Still though I'm surprised how well the roguelike genre fits with Fire Emblem. It kind of has the same appeal as randomizer rom hacks. I think I'd prefer these events be turned into permanent content (like squad assaults) that anybody can challenge and then maybe re-run for fun.

We should be getting the Halloween TT soon, so there'll be overlap with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah then I guess it makes sense. And ideally Fire Emblem Heroes would be having Forging Bonds or Tempest Trials running most of every day of the month, so there wouldn't be calendar space to fit this mode in between. Not unless they're trying to phase out one or the other like Tap Battle or Grand Conquests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabulously Olivier Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Is there any reason to Skip Shaping? Does it pass on to the next hero? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexmender Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 The mode is fun so far, but I wonder how long that'll last considering many just finished it already and the only thing left is to do the dailies and maybe flex the +10 builds they get. As for me, I decided to take it slow so I'm grinding a bit. Mae has been the MVP so far due to that Atk/Spd Push 4 she got super early, Celica is one or two steps away from greatness (if only she could get Glimmer and the Heavy Blade seal), Boey is neither here nor there but he'd be a great tank if he gets QR. Alm is either super strong or practically useless depening on the map. Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My units are dumb! It’s OK. The first weapon my Celica was offered was...a refined Tomato Tome+ (and I think it was a +Def refine too). Either way, I don’t even use that shit on my summer Leo. Joint Hone Spd was also an option though, so you can probably imagine which one I picked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yukiko Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I'm really enjoying this mode so far as well, but it's a pity that you have so little special stamina... There is a thing I didn't understand though: does the stamina for this mode refreshes every day? Because you get a very few torches as a reward...

Diovani Bressan Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Maybe for the next one they can update the stamina system? I don't believe they will change it to use the normal stamia, but maybe increase the number of stamina from 3 to 5, or give us more Forma Torches to recover stamina as reward (right now, we start with 3 torches and can get 3 more from rewards).

I'd be more interested in them adding a preview and reroll system like training tower has, so you don't waste torches on bullshit.

They could afford to tighten up the skill acquisition pool to exclude bad skills, but this has to be one of the best new modes in a while. While I see the point, I also feel like sifting through some bad skills makes the good ones stand out all the more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just playing a different difficulty to make painful setups go away. /Edit: it just occurred to me why they added "skip shaping": When your unit is already +10 and you don't want to change skills.
