DraceEmpressa Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Altina being Harmonic instead of more typical duo is silly tbh, they are not from diff worlds..... PoR and RD isn't even separated by decades like Binding and Blazing blade is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunwoo Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Someone in Heroes REALLY likes Sanaki. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirErrant Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Also, I had no idea they could do that for Harmonized Heroes... does having Altina and Sanaki paired together really count as them being from two separate games? Eh, it's a good pairing anyway... (wait, but then by that logic Hector and Lilina should be Harmonized Heroes too, right? What is IS thinking?)

Water Mage Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Sephiran and Altina in the same banner? How...interesting. Will they bring up how they were lovers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 Felix and Sephiran are here! Also new versions of Hilda and Bernie, and Altina+Sanaki as the Harmonic. I'm not impressed with Bernie, but everyone else here looks great to me. Hilda being the demote will be great for giving me a chance to finally pick her up, and I've been looking forward to Sephiran. Choosing between him and Altina for my spark will be painful, but hopefully I won't have to. Technically I still don't have to, but I'm not interested in a multispark, I'm behind on the orbs I'll need for just one. If it comes down to it, I'll probably go for Sephiran. And we've got our first non-armored winter units! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they're from two different games in a "technical" sense while defeating the "spirit" of Harmonic Heroes. Hector and Lilina still count under the same game because the Hector they're using is the older Hector when Lilina was about 5ish from the end of Blazing Blade. I think it would only count as Harmonic if it was FE7's teenage Hector with FE6's teenage Lilina. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Hmm, a tricky one for me. Sparkable Duos are always the pragmatic choice for me, but Harmonics are not really all that interesting and I'm far too lazy to match them up to the right team in terms of source game. Plus, y'know, sword infantry. Essentially it comes down to sparking either this or the Sacred Stones banner, or more specifically, sparking for the Harmonic vs chasing Duessel. Utility versus a character I like. In terms of the other units on this banner, it's a solid meh. A good horse mage is always welcome especially as my launch ones are really starting to struggle. But the armours are both underwhelming, with no Dazzling or Wrathful on Sephiran, and Hilda being the demote. Hmm, I may have just talked myself into not bothering. Hopefully the NY banner will bring a genuine Duo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But man, nice call on Sephiran on the wanted units in the other thread. : D This is going to be tough to choose ... probably going to summon up to a spark and see if I get Sephiran and Altina on the way up.

Fire Emblem Fan Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Every year I hope for Christmas Brom, and every year I am disappointed. Free Felix is nice, though. I get to save orbs and hope for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the NY banner will bring a genuine Duo. Sephiran's C skill looks pretty interesting though. It's nice for Aether Raids, especially given the instant Restore effect (20 HP is also nice but might be a problem for Desperation units). And for a demote, Hilda's pretty decent too.

May Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I don't think I'm going to pull until a month in. Likely when the banner is about to be over. I still need to pick Duessel from Scared Stones. :c HOWEVER, I'm just immensely happy with Felix. Like totally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would only count as Harmonic if it was FE7's teenage Hector with FE6's teenage Lilina. Altina and Sanaki were never both alive at anywhere close to the same time. Unlike Hector and Lilina, them meeting only makes sense as something happening through Heroes. It's a new twist on the concept of Harmonic Heroes, but still something that makes more sense with that concept than being a Duo Hero. Lore-wise, it's no different from an Awakening character being paired with an Archanea or Valentia one.

DraceEmpressa Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 The fact that they put Even Follow Up in the 4* unit proves that it's not that good, but hey, guaranteed follow up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Othin Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 One thing that does bug me about Altina+Sanaki is that Altina's still got her original prf. It's a sweet prf with some new twists on how she can use it, but still, it feels a lot less novel as a result. At least Sephiran is using his secondary weapon, that might tip the scales to him for me. 1 minute ago, DraceEmpressa said: The fact that they put Even Follow Up in the 4* unit proves that it's not that good, but hey, guaranteed follow up Yeah, it's pretty funny. Odd Follow-Up was introduced on the first duo hero, then after a year we finally get Even Follow-Up and it's like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lore-wise, it's no different from an Awakening character being paired with an Archanea or Valentia one. I mean, it only feels like a cop-out because Radiant Dawn and Path of Radiance take place on the same continent with only 3 years between them. It's different from Awakening with Archanea and Valentia because enough time has passed between Awakening and the other two so that you NEED an entirely different cast minus the one dragon. Altina's also technically not in RD either, and is just as present in RD as she is in PoR, as a posthumous character mentioned by others. And Sanaki exists in both PoR and RD (although is only playable in RD), so ... it still feels like it's cheating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SockPuppet Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Oh wow, will try for everyone but Bernie. Probably spark for either Seriphan or the Duo, depending on who I can manage to get until then. I will go for maybe a copy or two of HIlda. I would want to +10 her but I need to see the NY units first! Then I’ll go for more merges, and, if anything, there’s always her rerun on a double seasonal. Felix is the best part already though!! I can’t wait to see his art!! ❤️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it makes sense now that I think about it. Still, like @Sunwoo said, it feels really cheap. They'd make a fantastic Duo unit, but like... This kinda makes me want a Marth-Chrom Harmonic unit, though. (or a Marth-Masked Marth for the spiderman meme, but she's already taken) 3 minutes ago, Sentinel07 said: Anytime Bernie shows up means I'm going all in. Gotta support my favorite TH girl. I didn't really like her my first playthrough, but I'm warming up to her now. (wait, pun not intended, I'm so sorry) Bernie is actually super good though, now that I realize it. Her prf is amazing for anyone who wants to be under 100% HP, and IS has been blessing us with great tome cavs ever since this summer. Definitely gonna consider grabbing her for a cav line.

I have a Midori just chilling here Hilda being an armour saves my orbs (because if she were lance infantry it would be on like kong). Bernie is adorable just stuck in her house..

It certainly makes the game situation a bit odd, but I feel like it's not too out of line. It does raise some odd questions about other games, though. For Jugdral and Elibe, they could do the same shenanigans to allow combinations like Njorun+Altena or Roland+Eliwood, but not with FE8 because there's no second game to push one of the units off to.
