  1. After the admittedly disappointing Myrrh daily banner where I got nothing of value (fine fine, the one Reyson merge is appreciated), there was nothing left to pull but the new brave units, and since i only wanted Micaiah and Camilla for utility and to accompany my Catria and Flylivia I pulled Colorless and Greens (Red if none of those, since Alm bias).

    Got a Camilla .... but with -Speed flaw.... darn. So ill continue pulling for the time being, but at least I could safely take the free Micaiah (fitting, if I need it for a PM1 guide, tho she is a generally useful unit). As per my own rules, Micaiah does not count for my overall amount of 5* pulls. Hopefully I'll be able to save up orbs soon, or get a Brady while sniping, plox.

    I also still need a good way to kill Fallen Celica for being pretty much useless and not being Myrrh. Don't know who to give Chill Speed to yet, tho, but my itchy trigger finger wants to waste her real bad.

    2019 5* count (no guarantees/TT): 90

  2. Ouch, Myrrh banner is here, had around 65 orbs or whatever I could gather since my last needs (Nailah and stuff) and that was quite disheartening. Yeah, I know it's not that much and that there was no guarantee to get anything, but poop greens after poop (Reyson copy being the only exception), just to get a crappy fallen Celica. Not gonna lie, that made me sad to not get another merge for Myrrh, sigh... Celica ain't long for this world, not even sure if Ill bother with the extra 1k feathers before just wasting her useless butt.

  3. I should write the next couple of pulls down before I forget. I wanted to keep most orbs for Myrrh, but as always, impatient as ever, I wanted to continue a bit on the hero fest until i get my next 5*, while sniping for a second copy of Nailah (I agree, I was too greedy), so I sniped, got a lot of Shigures suddenly (barely existed not too long ago, and now I get him en masse, fine with me, tho I could have spared Minerva if this happened sooner) and "unfortunately", on a blueless circle, I got Tibarn. So I didn't get what I wanted, tho not a terrible consolation. Now, even if it's too late, I'll save all my orbs for Myrrh, maybe getting no copy of her, but hey, there is only me to blame, ha.

    Also got Nephenee on her daily as a free pull and the B!Ephraim from my last post. Still holding strong on the numbers, but also a noteworthy jump in quality these past months. Already curious to see the full list of summons at the end of the year.

    Well it's kind of obvious one house is going to get one more than the others on a 4 character banner. No matter what, one house or another would have gotten more.

    Sounds to me like youre trying to stir something that isn't there.

    Not really, considering the likes of Cyril, Seteth, Catherine, Alois, Shamir, etc... which I expected to be the fourth unit, honestly.

    Edit: Got ninja'd, so I'm just redundant 😄

    -So for the countering banner I decide to pull on green. 2 green orbs. I open both cause why not. And I get . . . a 5* Brave Ephraim. Umm. . . you don't look like Hector. +SPD/-RES. But I do think that was my first Hector's boon/bane combo. That or it was -HP, I don't remember exactly and he has long since been sacked. I do know it was +SPD though.

    Very interesting, this happened to me as well today... shortly after my last B!Ephraim from the Close Defense banner, I pulled another one today instead of Hector. No DC fodder, but I now have a Special Fighter copy that can comfortably be foddered off since my first one was +Att, which would make me reluctant to just delete like that. Luckily, I don't have to think about it anymore.

    As for your weird luck, I've been there; the feeling of disappointment, even though one has statistically been quite lucky. It's a weird feeling for which an appropriate reaction I haven't quite figured out yet. Still, gratz on your high numbers. Make the best of it, whether as collection or as asset.

  6. While M!Byleth isn't a guaranteed unit for every player I'm still not gonna count him toward my 2019 5* list. I didn't summon for him, and he was guaranteed for me since I always had the intention of buying FE:3H.

    Regardless, my luck is at a high point once more after the mediocre Summer Lilina experience:

    Ephraim free pull on the Close Defence banner (Finally some Special Fighter fodder for whenever I might need it, tho he is +Att... which makes saccing him a bit less enjoyable), Caineghis on my one-and-done legendary circle summoning, who'll probably just become a merge, tho I might find use in DD4 on someone else). Random Loki on my quest for another copy of Lilina to fodder off, resetting my rates and therefore making me stop to pull on that banner; maybe I'll get another Lugh at some point for Rally Res Up. Loki makes things even harder, +HP asset is quite useful on her, but my +10 Sakura and Leon are looking at her A-slot in a funny way. If they ever get refines they might murder her....

    And today, free pull +Att Elincia, sure, why not - and a second-circle Nailah, finally granting me Null-C Disrupt, which will be devoured by Velouria probably.

    I cannot complain with such a nice haul, and while there is a lot to summon for at the moment (for fodder and for the collection), I'll have to collect everything Feh is giving us to spend it on Myrrh merges soon. Sorry, Sothis.

    2019 5* count (no guarantees/TT/M!Byleth): 85

  7. Being someone who regularly uses PM1's guides for Abyssal clears (I'm lazy, sue me), I'm not sure how anyone, who didn't start playing just recently and therefore has gathered resources over a longer period of time, can have a hard time clearing Abyssals if the can just simply go through the huge amount of different f2p/low-inheritance clears on youtube. I remember Eliwood's Abyssal from PM1 being rather bad for me, as I didn't want to inherit Panic+ for the clear, I just typed abyssal clear eliwood into the search bar and found a typical solution with Veronica, L!Ike, B!Lyn, Young Azura (don't fodder/send home/manual common free and neutral units like Olivia/Young Azura/the free Eir/Fjorm for example; you'd be asking for trouble then if you need guides to succeed, though there are so many, it still wouldn't guarantee failure).

    Tho, this time, Sothis wasn't much of a challenge. Still haven't decided on maybe putting Special Spiral on Leon, but he could still kill most units with my typical Dancer -> Brave Bow approach. Decently Invested units, so not really replicable for anyone struggling, but yeah, dancers + nuker should work nicely here if you have an answer to Sothis herself (mine was TA Nowi). Olivia and L!Azura cheered for Leon.

  8. After wasting many orbs to get Summer Lilina I finally got her today, right after my "one-circle-and-stop" summoning on the 3H banner that gave me Claude. Considering I was leaning towards joining the Golden Deer on Friday, I think IS gave me a sign to follow my initial feeling.

    With that said, now that I see Lilina's dagger again, I feel like saccing her only for Res Up + might be a mistake, darn, but I need to finish my high scoring Aversa, and she still needs a Rally+ skill to be there. My only alternative is saccing my Ophelia for Att Up+, but both my other cheerleaders already have Att in their rallies.... grumblegrumble. And here I thought Id happily just sac Lilina for the rally and be done with it. Why does it have to be this difficult? 😛

    Since my last 5* I pulled quite a bit but only kept a copy of Camilla (+Spd, might be useful down the line), Shigure (my only copy, since he is so rare during my summons and I needed some Wards for AR), a neutral Jeorge and neutral Sothe (not sure why, probably because neutral units are kinda rare). Not a whole lot, tbh. rest got immediately turned into manuals, so nothing too interesting there I guess (Though some units might have been fine, but would also unnecessarily take away spots if I already have good natures in my barracks, like Soleils, Mordecais, Hinatas, Tailtius, Pallas or Kleins).

    i made 21 with cc rein and the free eir 😤

    Gratz and welcome, now you can go full try-hard, or just switch off your brain like I do and just coast that tier, depending on your enjoyment of the mode (I hate it immensely, hence the latter approach for me).

    Regardless, the hard part is done.

  10. Shigure actually exists in my summoning pool, good to know. Got a 4* one on the Marth/Caeda banner, I'm glad I have him back within my useable units.

    And with the rest of my orbs for a possible spare DC, I pulled a Brave!Lyn on a greenless circle. Better than nothing, even if B!Lyn's fodder is so weak now, she just turns into another merge level at this point, and she did.

    Bless the Headband Banner. I was afraid i'd never have my favourite Gal either. (Mine is +spd as well)

    Huzzah!

    Can't even remember her last banner she was in, so not having to care about getting her anymore is a huge relief, until the next Olivia appears, that is. However, let us enjoy the moment, before gacha ruins it later on; gratz on your similarly good pull as well.

  12. Oh wow, thank you FEH for being this generous and pleasing with my summons right now. After the random Laegjarn summon on the ladies headband banner, I collected a few orbs from the July quests to go for flying Olivia (I was desperate to get her, even with so few orbs; the other Olivias were waiting for her arrival) and I actually got her in the very next summoning circle. Duel skill for regular Olivia, Laegjarn for possible Aversa support, and now my only missing version of my favorite gal. I can be broke and happy. No trash summon in July will make me complain, that's for sure. And Flying Olivia is even +Spd/-HP, truly a keeper.

  13. It's  been a while since I last posted, so I have some catching up to do.

    Random Nina, somewhere... can't remember where, but I know it wasn't anything I asked for while also going for something desireable.

    Yarne after many orbs on his debut banner. Was going for either Nah or Yarne, at least I got one.

    Free-pull Ophelia on chill-banner. Good fodder, so I won't complain, though I remember not getting her when i actually tried. I should just never want any unit, maybe then I'll get what I secretly do want.

    First circle on Eliwood banner, got Hinoka and Sakura, sure, why not., but wasnt getting what I cared for, really..., still, not complaining since they aren't useless.

    Although, in the end, I did get a desired unit, a S!Helbindi at 4,75% to give his duel skill to Olivia! I can use my favorite gal in Arena again! Maybe someday even with a Prf weapon, tho I doubt it. Regardless, now that Flying Olivia is back, i don't have any orbs to spare. I will use all that I can accumulate till the last day of the banner, but I won't hold onto a lot of hope for that.

    Well, can't say I'm disappointed, Red Duel Infantry is a major boost for my fun.

    Edit: Random Laegjarn with my Arena reward orbs.... sure, not the right red flier, but a new one, and with interesting possibilities (+10 Aversa is a pretty neat Arena support unit, might beat Olivia, actually)

    2019 5* count (no guarantees/TT): 76 (after edit)

  14. Welp, with all the collected orbs since my last pulls (thx Gharnef and VG), no second Naga, darn. Yes, once again, random B!Hector, L!Eirika on a blueless circle and another L!Tiki came along with few orbs, but I don't care about those, worst red of the three for me, and all blues except Naga are kinda worthless. Game, give those copies to people who want it, come on.

    Oh well, guess I'll pick up another copy some other time then.

    2019 5* count (no guarantees/TT): 69 (I feel like I should make a joke or something)

  15. After wasting orbs on fallen units come the obligatory pulls for Astra copies: 100+ orbs

    Free pull Naga, very nice. I won't have to be super screwed during Astra seasons. But of course, getting two copies would be best, so I continued pulling with whatever I had gathered since Mikoto spooked me.

    Velouria, good to get rid of my -Spd flaw

    L!Tiki, at least a new unit, but I don't really want her, still better than Hector.

    Free pull sumia on the VG banner...., sure, whatever (her fodder is trash, wow)

    L!Tiki again, darn.

     

    Still continuing on the path of several random 5* for lowish numbers of orbs, but being units I dont particularly care for. Still, I can't complain this time; one Naga will help out quite a bit. And who knows what I'll pull in the next few days.

    Seeing that I apparently sent every other unit I pulled home, one can deduce that it was mostly trash (Shigure really hates me, he really doesnt want to appear often)

  16. Almost started a new light rant about my recent pulls, but I still gotta think about my recent L!Alm and L!Hector, so I'll hold back even if it is a shame I got some random units with little use.

    OG Olwen on the rerun of the first brides as a free summon and, after quite a few orbs on the new fallen units banner, I got no Corrin or Tiki, but a Mikoto, who I already had. Darn.

    I won't go back in, it was a significant loss of resources I should have kept for the Astra hero, but oh well. Nothing interesting otherwise since last time.

  17. I won't miss the gardens, not because of the idea, but because I don't want to redo the past maps every time I mess up on the final map, especially when they pick stupid turn-count/invincible-unit maps, though they are generally pretty bland in concept anyways. Didn't help this time that my Wind is just a collection of counter units, not synergetic with one another at all. Regardless,  I'm also on the same boat as to wonder what purpose the wind units will serve from here on out. I won't make a high scoring Wind team, like ever, since Arena sucks and T20.5 is absolutely sufficient. Dark/Anima are better blessings for AA as they cover all weeks with just two elements, my Allegiance battles won't care about elements for quite some time aaand... that's it. I mean, I always disliked the blessings, but now they'll become even worse, which is remarkable.

    I'm glad we won't have to wait as long for the next New Hero banner/Story chapter as I thought.

    I worried they'd hit us with Brides and Summer banners consecutively.

    One month is very long, imo, especially for the pathetic story progress we are getting. I also do not like the new standard sequence of Special-New-Special-New-etc (with summer maybe giving us two Special batches in a row, as you already mentioned, though not necessarily), just because New Heroes get a Forging Bond event, while Special Heroes get a Tempest Trial. But whatever, it's not like this subject was anything new.

    Schedule looks pretty bland, with nothing exciting, but also nothing offensively bad.

  19. Trash (the unuseable kind like Virion, Matthew, Wrys and a M!Morgan as the only non-useless unit, but I don't think I'll ever need him) on my tickets and some extras with the orbs gathered today, but I don't mind, it's time for others to have some luck. While it's always a shame to basically throw aways orbs for nothing, I'd be a fool to expect another 5* shortly after my lucky draw for L!Alm. I shouldn't even spend any orbs at all, tbh, but today I couldn't help myself. Those tickets.... I tell ya, ha. However, I really need to keep myself more under control - Astra isn't far off.

  20. Nasty glitch running around with defense teams. Be ready to lose 80 points today (without defense Mythics). I tackled a regular random match and a rematch, you will lose any rematch by the enemy and win any rematch you choose to trigger due to an enormous disadvantage caused by the glitch. Random matches seem unaffected, so people will be able to be deliberate jerks to others for a while and be salty rematchers. Japanese devs have acknowledged the issue and recommend putting defensive Mythics in your first four slots of the team, since the last two won't be on your defense map if you get rematched. Don't bother adjusting anything without defensive Mythics, you will lose regardless, as it will be a 4 (you) v 5 (rematching enemy) battle, and a lvl 1 defense fort on your side, as if you didnt upgrade it, while the attacker keeps all his stuff.

    Hope they fix this nonsense soon, it's really dumb.

  21. This map seems way easier, pretty much proven to me by the fact that I managed to reach my highscore of killing everything by the correctly coloured pair-up units without movement assists (outside of pair-up supports, who should always have them as they don't affect the score) in one try. This means, other people should have an easier time as well and I'm not gonna bother trying to stay top 1k. even if 10 flowers more would be neat. This is under the assumption that the threshold will rise quite a bit till the end of the season, making any effort for 2 points or whatever I can improve on with skill inheritance quite pointless.

  22. Well, got my orbs from Arena, normally super cursed when pulling with them. 14 orbs, so 3 pulls total on one or two circles, and my last attempts at the L!Alm banner... and I now swear I will not complain about any summons for the rest of the month, coz I got 2 reds, 2 greens, 1 gray, picked green and gray for the most desireable units and got Titania, L!Alm (wow) AND L!Hector (double wow) for a spare DC fodder unit... this is amazing, and all the Raighs, Bartres, Lachesises and Florinas will not bother me one bit for some time.

    Granted, I still hope to get an Astra Mythic at the end of the month, and would be disappointed if it doesn't happen due to AR making it kinda mandatory, but yeah, these pulls felt really good and I cannot whine when I get lucky on both numbers and desired quality. No Attack/Speed bane on Alm as well, which is also neat. I wish any of you making those last pulls for Alm the same kind of luck I was blessed with.

    Congrats to your Shigure! I'm looking forward seeing him in his final form. 

    Remaining positive helps having fun. ;-)

    Oh, he is already dead, I need Ward Fliers, and now Aversa has it. He won't be a gem on my team if that's what you thought. I can see how that would make sense as well. :P
