  1. It's true that infantry got a lot of shiny new toys, doesn't mean cav sucks at all.

    There's plenty of good cavs units, you just don't see them very often because they require investment to be useful.

    I do think some cavs got the short end of the stick when it comes to their refine, but it's not the case for every single refine for cavs. There's bad refines for every single class.

  2. Dark spikes Lysithea killed Death Knight. IS is aware of memes!?

    160 summons? How many orbs is that? I'll take my free Claude and leave

    New gamemode is basically "I hope you have friends".

    Changing traits is amazing!!!

    You're talking to someone who only puts in the bare minimum effort for Aether Raids and who outright despises the mode, so Plumeria being Astra would mean nothing to me.

    I don't doubt that and I also do not doubt you are the only one thinking this way. However, the concept of Mythics is mostly for AR (and I guess MS but doesn't matter) whenever or not they are from Heroes or from another game.

    Heroes has six out of the thirteen (so nearly half) of the current Mythics while several games still have zero. That should not be acceptable under any conditions.

    You are the not the first one to say something along those lines and I'm always surprised. I'm pretty sure IS is aiming for the long run with this game, and as I said before, Mythics have even less candidates than regular heroes or legendary heroes. Doing what you suggest would only make sure that the next year or the next would be filled by only Heroes Mythics. Worse results if you ask me.

    Yeah, and we're also just going to get Plumeria as the September Mythic anyways instead of an actually interesting Mythic.

    After suffering for months in Astra, it would be most welcome.

    Plus, it's not like they have as many characters to give the Mythic title, those OC Mythics give them some breathing room.

    inb4 she gets added and takes a spot in a normal new heroes banner like Peony and Mirabilis did.

    Even better scenario tbh, more chance to get her for free.

    They are not lacking in my opinion. At the very least, they got player phase, dual phase, and support completely covered.

    WOT!Olwen is an amazing nuke. She essentially has 35/40 offensive stat spread. Blade tomes are still the hardest hitting Weapons in the game.

    SP!Selena got 37 base Atk, which is pretty good for Counter-Vantage. Her Spd is not lacking either if the player wants to go full player phase.

    Yarne can Galeforce during his first round of combat without using Heavy Blade. He is also the only viable Galeforcer for Resonant Battles. For Galeforcers, being able to Galeforce without eating up valuable Sacred Seals is much more important than combat performance.

    PP!Veronica got automatic follow-up on both phases. Automatic follow-ups are pretty strong in player hands, and even if Null Follow-Up becomes more common on enemies, that just means other types of nukes on your team will have an easier time dealing with those enemies, as Null Follow-Up does nothing against regular Desperation nukes, Brave nukes, Blazing nukes, one shot nukes, and Galeforcers.

    Kaden can provide a huge amount of buffs, much more than M!Corrin, and a shit ton more than Ranulf. Panic is an issue though.

    Except all of them that you mentioned are 5 stars exclusives. In fact, more than half of green cavs are 5 stars.

    If you remove all 5 stars and seasonals (meaning 4 star Sylvain), you are left with only 9 green cavs in the 3/4 star category: 5 axes, 2 green tomes and 2 green bows.

    Then take 3 units off the table because they are grails units and unless they are your favorite units, you wouldn't have any reasons to summon for them at the moment in a very competitive pool. Not to mention they all lack refines at the moment (could change with Walhart's future refine).

    You are left with three axe cavs, two of them had not very good refines and one supportive refine easily countered by panic and restrict teams. One green tome who has become the staple Raventome cav and two green bow cavs.

    That's not a lot to work with if you ask me.

    Now I am focusing back on Astra and I am trying to figure out a Galeforce

    Trust me, Galeforce in Astra is even more less effective and situational than in Light. And that's not just we don't have a dancer mythic.

    Duma and Lìf are a pain to face when using Galeforce.

    It might matter enough though. And I just think it should.

    Game design's decisions will always matter more than this sort of thing. If IS really wanted to put related mythics against each other, they would have give Mila an astra blessing. But since IS seems to want Astra to be the hard season and Light the easier season, they put her in light instead.

    Doesn't mean she could never be in Light if she is chosen to be the 5th Light mythic, it just depends on her future kit or if someone is chosen before her.

    Ashera and Yune are even more opposite and closely related than those two are though. Mila and Duma are siblings, but Ashera and Yune are literally two halves of one whole. They're the split forms of Ashunera and pretty much meant to be opposite to one another because Ashunera split herself.

    Again, I do not think it matters at all to IS.

    They might however give Ashera a skill that is similar to Yune's C skill and maybe make her a tome unit but infantry. Just like Mila and Duma are both colorless dragons that affect something in a single cardinal line, but Duma is armor and Mila is infantry.

    Plus you can expect the next Light Mythic to be the Book 5 OG freebie anyways.

    If nothing else, she’ll be another potential source of Distant Counter for those of us who don’t give a single shit about her (like me of course).

    Oh, and how crafty of them to give her a technically new weapon (even if it’s just her old one but now with Iote’s Shield because fuck you) to avoid removing the “enemy only” tag on her original weapon. I knew I was right to keep my expectations low.

    Don't forget Guard Bearing with DC... if you can find someone to use that niche skill.

    Ashera would be Light to be opposite to Yune's Dark.

    But Mila is Light despite Duma being Anima, I don't think IS give them their blessings based if they have a related mythic in one particular season.

    Oh yeah, I'm also disappointed we still only have two Astra Mythics. The number of choices there is far too low and disproportionate to Dark and Anima.

    That Astra mythic is better be a goddamn dancer.

    Watch IS giving us the first armor dancer in Astra out of pure spite.

    I've heard a theory that the developers are punishing us for the free Altina

    Ah man, I knew we should all have voted for Edelgard, the OBVIOUS best choice in the pool.
