...You're gonna have to hold me back before I do something drastic.

If you get Ayra, I'll trade you my Eldigan! This banner feels so cruel to suddenly pop up and have Ayra share the same color as another unit. Now all my orbs are gone and no OP girl.. On the small bright side with this banner, I did get my first Hinata in between the -def Seliphs and other junk.

Well this banner has made me really sad. Got baited and used all 100 of my stocked Halloween orbs since I really want Ayra. Used them all for a bunch of trash 4* Seliphs, Raighs and... finally spooked by +spd -res Eldigan. Fuck, this banner is cursed, I knew he'd screw me out of getting her. It's at least A 5* but I'd honestly have preferred my rate for Ayra to just keep going up after 100 blown orbs. (Free pull was 4* -spd M Corrin, btw)

Same. The Fredrick and Camilla's maps make leveling and SP grinding so quick and easy.

Very nice. I like Camilla and she was such a help in the early days, so I'll probably be doing this same build at some point to make her useful again.

Even though I didn't play FE4, I'm going to 5* Arvis since I'm quite lacking in red mages.(It's just Tharja and a terrible -spd S Leo..) He seems like he'll be a good TT helper in the future as well with all those debuffs, and just slap a Recip Aid/Ardent Sacrifice on him for healer memes. At least I'll likely get 3k of my investment back on him this coming TT with that. I'm happy to see some easy Def Ploy fodder, even if I have no use for it right now. I probably won't get around to building an Est in any kind of near future.

I beat Infernal and hard in 1 try with Cordelia and Elincia with Galeforce + 2 dancers. That was very satisfying to see my flier girls tag team that map. I actually had to do lunatic a second time since Cordelia was too strong and killed the lance cav in 2 hits, failing to proc Galeforce, so Arvis nuked her. I took off PA Olivia's B skill so she didn't get an attack buff and she 3 hit him next try for it to work. On hard she didn't charge it either, but Arvis couldn't one shot her there so it didn't matter. Very nice Arvis' Def Ploy 3 comes at 4*. I probably wasn't going to merge him anyway so I'm glad the copies will be good SI fodder.

Amen. I don't like wasting crests to do all of arena in one day, but it's worth it to not worry about it the rest of the week.

I feel pvp just doesn't really work with FE, sadly. Fates' pvp was a mess. It's neat in concept but just doesn't work well in practice.

I guess sacred seals made more of a difference than I expected. I hit 4,900 score exactly for the first time while running DD3, Deflect Magic 2, Spd +2 seals and Sigurd for bonus this week. It could have been higher too, but I didn't hunt for higher matches since I just need enough to get back to tier 20. I've never gotten higher than the 4,880's so this is a bit of a spike. Was not pleasant seeing +9 Reins and other mages regularly this streak, though. The only merges on my own team is +3 Cordelia, so it feels a bit much.

Well Arvis coming so soon was a bit unexpected. I do have feathers for him, so I guess my Brave Sword Hana project will get pushed back a while now till I get more feathers again. (Had 31k out of 42k saved up, rip)

Only if you hand over that Honk right this instant.

On somewhat of a whim I think I'm going to save up 42k feathers to build my Hana. I realized my 3* one I've left sitting around for a long time is +atk -def, and I think I'd like to make her 5* with a Brave Sword+ build. Ayra and Arden coming up as good swords almost puts me off a bit, but I think I'll do it anyway. After arena rewards today I'm 31k feathers saved so far. I think next on my list will be either promoting and merging my last Cordelia on hand to make my main one +4. I'm never going to be able to stay in tier 20 for consecutive weeks if I never start merging some of my core arena units.

Only that you now get 10 coins for your offense score (any score range gives the same 10 coins). I don't think feather rewards have changed.

Yeah, I was thinking maybe either Ayra or Arden is a second TT reward. Like they may have noticed people find the regular TT a slog over the mini one, so to spice up the regular one they might have added a second unit to the rewards. It's a possibility at least.

Yes, I'm a bit triggered too. With Hone Cav at least he hits a modest 35.. On the bright side, with the DD3 seal and his base kit he seems like a brick wall to most attacks. I hadn't rolled since the start of the dancer banner, so I used a few more orbs than I should have. (should have quit as soon as Sigurd popped up, but that -spd and still wanting Dierdre triggered me to roll a little more). Now I have 90 orbs left, down from 137. I hope I don't get too burned for Halloween.

Hey, same Sigurd as me. (I was wrong in my first post, he's +res not atk, rip) Unless you really don't want to wait, I'd just wait till we see about what's going on for Halloween first before pulling more. We should get info hopefully before both the Dancer and Judgral banners end, anyway.

Sigurd is being a bro right now. I put the DD3 seal on him and can hit auto and he'll solo the hard Camilla map alone in less than a minute to farm his own SP for me. God bless.

That sounds like me on the CYL banner. I spent 200+ orbs easily hunting for Lucina all month and came out with just a Cordelia and Effie breaking the 5.25% pity rate, and I already had both of them. I did get a CYL Ike just before the banner ended in a last effort summoning, but he's -def +res which is like the worst and I'm still salty. I got a Sigurd in 30 orbs, but cursed with -spd, then wasted 20 more orbs for a replacement or Dierdre but failed and called it quits. Hope you manage to get them, the luck can be beyond fickle sometimes. I'd really like Dierdre too but I think I'll just keep saving for Halloween.

Oh, alright, cool. He looks like a fun unit at least, with that monster def. Is Zephiel literally dead now between BK and Arden? Zephiel still had the niche as the more tanky red armor over BK, but now Arden looks to take that spot pretty well. I even saw some Zephiels running Brave Sword which he comes with naturally.

Ayra looks amazing and I hope we can get her soon. I could really use another good sword unit. Arvis will be great for me too since my only good red mage is Tharja. I got a SIgurd in 30 orbs (was Aiming for Dierdre but only found Bartres, wasted 50 orbs in total) and he's +atk -spd. I get the feeling that's pretty bad... Who is Arden? Judging by the art, a villain? Sorry, I don't know anything about FE4.

Welp. I used like 30 orbs. 4* Hana free pull (+res -atk), rest of the session was blues and backed out 2 greens and 3 blues, 4* Bartre 3* Bartre Backed out and next session was 4 reds and 1 blue, 4* Henry 3* Palla 4* Ogma ...Sigured +atk -spd 3* Subaki Well I actually got Sigured, but I got cursed with -spd, which seems like it may cripple him. I hope he's still usable with that, but at the very least I may have a good bonus unit for the TT if they make him 40%!

Jet flags can't melt steel feathers.

Damn, 6,250th in the army and 1,071th total. Just missed 2 thresholds even though I hit all the biggest multipliers this round. Oh well, I guess I still got a pretty good haul. Too bad Ninian still won despite the comeback. So this makes Camilla vs Lyn still the only big example of a multipier upset.

Ayy, galeforce.
