    Wrong. You should see how much fanart and fanfiction I find of the two. In fact, every time I Google Ike or Elincia, some fanart of them as a pairing comes up. There's some Ike x Soren in Ike's case too, but there's still Ike x Elincia as well. The fanfic archive I made on ff.net for them is one of the largest FE ones. And Ike x Elincia seems to be Elincia's most popular pair because I see a lot more fanart and fanfiction for them than her and Geoffrey. Just saying.

    Aren’t you an Ike/Elincia shipper? Clearly, you’re gonna see more of Ike/Elincia because you seek out fanart of the ship, so your observation is heavily biased. This is like saying more people have dogs than cats because I see more people with dogs at a dog park

  2. Huh this wasn’t as bad as it originally looked, but it can be difficult if you don’t have a decent flying team. Cleared with summer Takumi, bridal Ninian, and the two flying Azuras

    Also, is there a reason why the units on the left don’t go over and break the wall? I feel like the map would’ve been much harder if they did

    I see.

    A lot of units won't benefit from it though. Those with a bane in a really low stat, like Reinhardt or Hrid with their super low Spd, won't really see any difference with extra points in their Spd if it's their bane.

    So, I'm still confused at how this change does much good without also increasing the boon or something. It would benefit some units, but I don't see it benefiting many.

    I don’t think this was implemented to increase the viability of units. This looks like a way to help players that pulled bad IVs, while also encouraging players to pull more. For example, Julia pity broke me twice. I’d love to use her, but both of the ones I pulled were -Atk. With this change, I’m more open to investing in her because her Atk will be fixed now.

  4. She pity broke me and although I don’t use her much, she’s still really good. Mia and Karla pity broke me as well and after using all three of them, I think I still prefer Ayra. Her decent defense comes in handy when in a pinch, but all three are good.

    Also, I dislike how people seem to associate the start of BST inflation with Ayra, when it started with Sigurd, if you ignore the special treatment Lyn and Ike received.

  5. Mia’s voice is one of those that are so bad it’s funny. I hope it never changes and it becomes a running gag if we ever get more seasonals of her.

    I wanted to pull Niles, but I’m not a fan of his voice. It’s usually deeper than what they showed in the video. Plus, he’s an armor and I’m not too fond of those.

    It seems like IS is aware of our dislike of Camilla’s alts, so they’ve resorted to Kagero for their Fates character with big breats. I like her, though, so I don’t mind too much, but it was surprising seeing her again.

    Myrrh is adorable 10/10

    Niles's ATK sucks, so it makes sense that his kid is weak too.

    Oh yeah that’s true huh. Still, the damage output is probably with shining bow’s effect factored in, which just makes it worse. I guess I’m just used to the powercreep.

    Anyway, I’m pulling for Flora because she was one of my favorites and I s-ranked her in Fates. Silas being the demote is a plus because I like him too. Wouldn’t mind pulling Ophelia or Nina too

  7. I was thinking of building Subaki and making him my first +10 merge but I’m not exactly sure how to build him. I was thinking of giving him Aether as his special, CD for his A slot, keeping QR as his B, attack smoke as C, and maybe the CD seal? I can’t decide between Harmonic lance and Slaying lance, but I’m leaning more towards harmonic because Shigure pity broke me and it matches Subaki’s hair. His IVs are what I’m most unsure about. I want Def as his boon, but I can’t choose between banes. An HP bane will keep his Res up in case I need him to deal with dragons, but I do plan on using M!Marth as part of my core, so a Res bane might be more favorable instead. I was also thinking of a Spd bane since he’ll mainly be an enemy phase unit and he’ll have QR to double anyway and his Spd isn’t totally awful at +10 anyway. Any advice on the overall build will be helpful!

    Also, how common are mages and archers at the higher end of tier 20? If they’re still common, then that might affect how I build him.

  8. @Alexmender Your Eirika clear was really cool to watch, especially the use of pass! It makes me really jealous watching your videos because Eirika won’t show up for more merges ugh

    I’m really biased towards Cordelia because Awakening was my first FE game and Cordelia was the first person I S-supported, so the themed team was nice. Glad to see Selena put in some work too.

    I don't want to have to waste a 5 star to give her a different weapon when her new weapon could've been good though. Instead, IS dropped the ball hard here and localization gave it a very misleading name.

    Why does anyone want mixed teams over non-mixed? Using all horses or all armors or all fliers has always been great and also cool. Nothing wrong with them. If some people want to use a mixed team, good for them, but I personally prefer all horses or all fliers.

    Yeah, localization was weird with the weapon, but the effect gives her a unique niche. As far as I remember, she’s the only unit who can give +6 to three stats to any movement type, which is a huge boon to blade mages especially. She’s a good support unit that also retains her ability to act as blue check. Not only that, but as stated before, she can refine her weapon, something regular gem weapons can’t do. Not the most powerful refine, but a support unit that can shut down Nowi with no problem sounds pretty good to me.

    I prefer my mixed team over my others. One thing I like about it is that I no longer feel immediately threatened when an enemy unit has something like beastslayer/bows/armorslayer/etc because I’m less likely to lose a unit.

    Although the tactic skills don’t buff more than one stat like home cavalry/fliers, their ability to buff stats from two spaces away gives me more flexibility when it comes to unit placement. You also get to use units from every movement type, which opens up more possibilities to different types of teams. Sure, infantry and armors might have a harder time following around cavalry and fliers, but guidance helps to alleviate this issue greatly.

    Eirika is also a popular unit for mixed teams because of the ability to give her +12 to all stats when part of a tactics team. She becomes your typical strong/speedy sword, but with good bulk that most speedy swords lack. She’s only at +1 with a budget build for me, but she’s incredibly strong already.

    I have experience with Minerva, and even though she is 5*+1 with +Spd, she still cannot reliably double without Hone Fliers, so I recommend +Spd for Camilla as well. Unless your Player Phase unit is running a slow Brave set, you generally want to Spd stack Player Phase units as much as possible.

    A player-phase build (Life and Death / Swift Sparrow / Fury + Desperation) prefers +Spd. An enemy-phase build (Distant Counter + Quick Riposte) favors +Atk.

    I use a +spd -hp one as one of my core +10 arena units. Generally I'd recommend +spd for any of her builds. For a cheaper LaD/Fury/etc type build, +spd for sure. And even with a DC/QR build it still keeps her from being doubled by speed demons and she can tank a wider range of things safely by getting doubled less. +atk does let her do a bit more damage, especially to the armors in high tier arena, but for overall use I'd still go with +spd.

    I’ve decided to use a player-phase build for her with +Spd, so thanks for the input everyone!

  11. Tak-Tak is so cute

    Since both of Camilla’s first two alts pity broke me, I decided to just complete Camilla emblem. She’s -Atk +Def so she’ll probably need a bladetome which is a bummer because I wanted to use her weapon but I got her in around 50 orbs so I can’t complain. I even got a five star Tailtu in the session before Camilla’s, so I guess she was destined for a bladetome

    Why when I already have them with IVs at lv. 40 and with SI? I don't want to be told that all that was a fucking waste of time and effort and resources.

    No one is saying that it’s a waste of time and resources. Use your built up units and then if you’re having trouble, use your neutral units and the guides available as backup

    And I would disagree, I think most wouldn't mind being pity broken by him even if only because of his rare niche and the fact that horse emblem is great. They might generally prefer something else, but they wouldn't hate having a 5 star of him. Though I can agree that pulling a bad IV 5 star Frederick would suck, unless you just wanted merges.

    You already have people complaining about being pity-broken by five-star units they’re not aiming for. I think being pity-broken by a common unit like Frederick would be much worse.

    The problem is that they get or will get on a lot of banners due to being 5 star exclusive. And they're always 5 star exclusive. Characters like Frederick and Catria will not and are not. Hell, Catria has only been on one banner ever. So there are few opportunities to get 5 stars of them without having to spend feathers.

    Feathers are very very easy to come by nowadays. You get 3k feathers from one arena match a week. Then you have stuff like arena awards, VGs, TTs, the Gardens, sending home random units when your barracks are full, etc. Feathers should not be a problem to most people, unless they’re new, but even then, I’m sure newer players would appreciate the rarer five-stars.

  14. I’m in love with the tactics team I built. Cleared it in one try with BB!Ninian, LA!Eliwood, Nino, and Eirika

    Thank you so much for starting the thread! I was going to but being on mobile is a hassle. 

    @mampfoid @Zeo @Rafiel's Aria @kirauza343 @SatsumaFSoysoy @DefyingFates

    Well, without further ado I present the latest Eirika clear. This one took two tries to clear and also has a very nervewrecking moment at the end where I was almost sure Eirika would die but she survived with the power of bonds!

     

    Ahhhh this was amazing to watch. Hoping to get more merges for my Eirika soon so that she can be just like this

  15. Anyone have any experience with LA!Eliwood with Berkut’s lance? I know Effie would be better with merges but I’ve only ever pulled Effies with either -Atk or +Spd lol plus I wanna use him on a tactics team with B!Ninian

    Edit: Also, how is Eirika with her refine? I wanna put her on the same tactics team to make full use of her weapon. I’m planning on giving LA!Eliwood my only DC fodder, but I feel like it’d also work well on Eirika with full buffs.
