I'd argue that -Atk is the best bane a healer could have since you really care more about their survivability than anything else, Wrathful Staff shenanigans aside. Not to mention even among healers, Lyn's attack isn't particularly impressive.
@Kaden I personally would opt for HP +5 to help keep her alive instead of Atk +3, but of course the decision is ultimately yours.
That's fair. Other than that though, +Spd Nino is amazing. She's honestly the only reason I'm able to consistently do deathless runs of Lunatic Tempest.
Makes me a little sad that none of the bonus units are cavalry because horse emblem blows these maps apart (the few times my A team has lost to Veronica on the last Lunatic map, I've had no trouble cleaning the map up with my backup horse emblem team)
There are certain skills you need the third tier of to secure certain ORKOs (for example, a neutral Reinhardt with Death Blow 2 barely misses the OHKO on neutral Azura but would secure that kill with Death Blow 3), but since you get the full effect of QR regardless of tier (at least for the first round of combat), it's less important to have the third tier.
Perhaps, but I don't have the luxury of feeding kills to the unit of my choice for SP grinding if I want to clear the entire trial deathless. It also just so happens that most of my top units all already have 2000 HM too, so I'm not getting much from the Trials in regards to that either :/
I mean I usually dump mine when there's a double EXP or SP event. HM grinding when there are special maps like the Kozaki ones are another use for them.
My team is M!Robin, Ryoma, Nino, and Ninian.
I've been able to get a few deathless runs of the highest Tempest level mostly because Nino sweeps the whole map once she gets into Desperation range.
Don't need a healer if all the enemies are dead :D
OH SHIT CONGRATS :DDD
I actually just did it too! Though I was too excited to think about taking a screenshot at the time.
Desperation Nino is a goddamn monster.
YES
YES
I GOT MY FIRST COMPLETELY DEATHLESS RUN ON THE HIGHEST TEMPEST DIFFICULTY
DESPERATION NINO IS THE ONE TRUE LORD
Also honorable mention to Vantage Ryoma for soloing 3 enemies while at 1 HP on the second to last battle.
Cool, cool.
Then for all intents and purposes, I'll consider my run "deathless" if I complete it with one team haha
I don't think a true deathless run is happening anytime soon though.
See? Only an hour and half in, and you're improving already!
I still can't get deathless on the last stratum either so we can all suffer together
EDIT: I think my problem atm is that I need to use Robin for bonus points (since I don't have any of the other units), but I'm having trouble building a team around mine, especially since I rarely use him as is, which means he has not very much SI on him.
Nah, you just don't have the right attitude. You can do it if you try :D probably
On the topic of Tempest Trials: I'm really feeling the effects of having QR 2 and -Breaker 2 over the 3 counterparts now that HP's carried over for multiple rounds :/
Huh. I've done the map four times now and literally never not gotten one of the Thracia Thunder Twins.
But it does make sense that it would just be "ranged cavalry" and not specifically those two. Just RNG being RNG.
I have always gotten an armor, Reinhardt/Olwen, an infantry ranged unit, a melee horse, and Veronica.
So yes, you're right. (Though the infantry doesn't have to be colorless. I'm actually on her map rn, and there isn't a single colorless enemy)
