Thanks.

Did they change Gaius's artwork?? I don't remember him pulling back the bowstring before.

Any suggestions for +Def/-Hp Summer F!Corrin's B slot? She'll be running Blarblade, Draw Back, and default skills (for now) with a team of Hone Hinoka, Fortify Caeda, and Goad Narcian. My initial thought was to use B Tomebreaker, but I almost never see blue mages outside of Reinhardt, and Narcian rips them all to ribbons anyway. Lancebreaker is not an option.

Still sitting at 2/5 reds on team Corrin. What the hell?

Rank 5018 in Corrin army goddammit lol. Was at 4,77x the hour before, didn't think I'd have to spend anymore flags.

Fingers crossed for a Fliers banner w/ Hinoka after Cavalry ends today.

Got victory feathers from team Corrin.

It's sure looking that way. Hopefully the next two rounds are a bit closer.

I missed the first bonus for F!Corrin because I value sleep, and it doesn't look like she's gotten a second one. Team Elise needs to pick it up.

Season 26 (1.3.0 S12) Results: Score: 4,822 Defense: 578 Rank: 19 --> 20 Same exact team as last week. I had planned to build up Gray, but between term papers, exams, and interview prep I got a bit lazy with the arena, and with Heroes in general. Guess we'll see how Anna does next week. Season 26 Hall of Fame: Previous Season Results:

I'm...sort of ready? All 5* unless otherwise stated: 1. Sharena/Julia/Marth-M/Katarina 2. Eirika/Nino/Azura/Alfonse 3. Ephraim/Tharja/4*Olivia/Anna 4. Eldigan/Camus/Reinhardt/Hector 5. Narcian/Hinoka/S!F-Corrin/Caeda 6. Ike/Catria/Ninian/Takumi 7. Xander/4*Gunter/4*Ursula/4*Cecilia Leading with team 6 seems like the best idea, since it has no answers to Reinhardt. Not that I wasn't aware of it before, but the announcement of this mode is making me anxious over just how few worthwhile green units I have. I have some of the best ones in Hector, Nino, and Julia, but they're going to need backup for this.

My mind jumped to "special 6* promotion" while watching that section, if only because the other thread made me paranoid. I sincerely hope that is not the case. Merge levels would be nice, and a potentially cheaper alternative than feather dumps. I doubt they will ever implement a system to change a character's nature. It's an extra source of income from the vocal minority willing to continue spending orbs and money for better nature'd characters, while the vast majority of the player base either don't know it exists, or don't care.

I was able to pull summer Corrin, so I'll be joining her team. I'll have my Narcian in the lead ready to support her with Goad boosts, if anyone on team Corrin wants to add. 7452501754

Said I wasn't going to spend my orbs until after the new summoning changes on the 7th, but I really wanted Corrin. I think I got more than I bargained for. Summer Corrin is +Def/-Hp, so mostly neutral, and regular Corrin is +Atk/-Res, making her a great candidate to 5* someday. At least this makes my voting gauntlet decision easy.

Cool banner, and great work to the detectives who figured it out! I have every character on it except Genny, so now the question is whether or not to dive into colorless hell for her...

Looks like a Hammer to me. Edit: beaten by literally a second

Oof, I'm not going to have any of these characters, so no bonus for me. Who's the least popular character here?

Flipped rates on 3 and 4* characters is amazing, and means I can continue saving orbs until August 7th. Another summer banner is whatever, and I don't have any of the upcoming gauntlet characters. Valter might just be a candidate to 5* for me depending on what his stats are like.

Among everything else that's been speculated so far (except the 6* possibility, fuck that), I'm hoping for a mode/feature that makes use of badges. I'm sitting at nearly 2,000 of each kind of regular badge and ~600 of the greats with no way to make use of even a small fraction of them. The badge output was one of those things that made sense during the first month of release, but has gotten a bit ridiculous now.

Season 25 (1.3.0 S11) Results: Score: 4,838 (New Record!) Defense: 582 Rank: 20 --> 19 New high score by two points, but it wasn't enough for me to stay in tier 20 this week. Until I can get some merges, I expect to alternate between 19 and 20 for the foreseeable future. I initially didn't want to use a precious Abel as SB3 fodder for Sharena, but I figure I might as well make her competent if she's going to be used a third of the time. Either way I wasn't really impressed with her this week, and I feel like the team would have been far more reliable with Ephraim instead. I encountered a few horse emblem teams this week, and discovered that to my horror, Reinhardt can avoid getting doubled by Julia if he's neutral Spd and has a Hone Cav boost. Julia can double again if she has a speed buff herself, meaning that I might just give Sharena Hone Spd as well. Season 25 Hall of Fame: Previous Season Results:

Now that TT isn't monopolizing my stamina I can do some Chain Challenge and finish up some of the leftover quests for orbs.

A string of lucky pulls and generous feather distribution has brought my total number of 5*s from 20 to 31 over the past month. Alfonse: Balanced (Promoted) Anna: Balanced (Promoted) Azura: +Atk/-Hp Azura: +Def/-Res Caeda: +Atk/-Hp (Promoted) Camus: Balanced (Promoted) Catria: +Res/-Hp Chrom: +Res/-Hp Eirika: +Atk/-Hp (Promoted) Eldigan: +Spd/-Hp Ephraim: +Res/-Def Gray: +Def/-Atk Hector: +Def/-Hp Hinoka: +Def/-Atk Ike: +Res/-Def Julia: +Spd/-Def Katarina: +Hp/-Atk Mae: +Res/-Hp Marth-M: Balanced ("Free") Narcian: Balanced (Promoted) Ninian: +Def/-Atk Nino: +Spd/-Hp (Promoted) Raven: +Res/-Spd Reinhardt: +Res/-Spd Sanaki: +Hp/-Res Sharena: Balanced (Promoted) Takumi: +Hp/-Res Tharja: +Res/-Atk Tiki(Adult): +Def/-Res (Promoted) Tiki(Young): +Res/-Spd Tobin: Balanced ("Free") I estimate the amount of money spent is around ~$175 since launch.

I'm done. If I wake up tomorrow to see I fell out of the top 5k I'm going to be really annoyed lol Main team was Ike/Hector/Mae/Wrys until Wrys capped his HM, and was subbed out for Serra. Camus/Eldigan/Reinhardt/Priscilla cleaned up if the main squad fell apart at some point. I could probably count the number of times I had to deploy a third team on one hand. Special shoutout to WoM and Frederick in particular for ruining more perfect runs than I care to count. Jerk.

Two full pulls on the cavalry banner since the colors were good.

Geez, as if I needed even more reasons to pull on red/blue. Might switch my focus to Olwen since Corrin-F can be pulled at lower rarities.
