I know, I was building off the end of his quote about FE12

yeah, everyone had Base Conversations with Kris and some characters got one or two supports with other characters. I think Caeda got the most: Kris, Marth, Maelicia, and Ogma. Note that this is separate from the actual support mechanic, since someone like Marth only gets conversations with kris & Caeda, but gets support bonuses from Merric as well.

It's probably fine, the nintendo warriors audience are likely mostly on nintendo platforms to begin with. I'm very into this & HW, but the normal DWs dont do much for me. Also people can play different games at once, even if they're similar More relevant to this game is the awakening DLC coming out the same month as HWDX in japan. Probably smart on america's part to seemingly push that later in the spring, give it some breathing room.

They've laid out what Opi are in this pack and its not the twins. They also weren't mentioned as part of the free update. I think if we were going to get them for free, it would have been in the past month where nothing else happened,

Blessings should be part of the free update, not exclusive to those who bought the DLC. See also: hero weapons and the misc blessings added with the update that came with the dlc.

Dragon laguz just use dragon breaths, everyone else uses new interchangeable beast stone weapons alongside the awakening/fates beasts. 0 need to impliment claws/beaks/etc, acts as an acceptable break for game mechanic reasons, they can introduce new stones as needed. For "uniqueness" I was thinking infantry units that ignore forest penalties (or maybe 3 move infantry who take standard penalties into forests) and whose weapons are always effective against other beasts and cavalry, alongside whatever extra effects they want. For simplicity's sake they'd be weak to anti-cav weapons rather than needing to implement an entirely different array of anti-beast weapons like the beast slayer; they've updated skills before they can do it again. Incidentally I still think we'll get wyrmslayers eventually...but alternatively they could just not be weak to anti-cav weapons and just have someone get al egendary weapon ala the Falchion. Be a bit weird though... For the love of god don't throw them into the colorless pool, that'd be awful especially when dragons get to have full triangle advantage. Colorless has enough issues as is anyway.

Most egregiously this includes Anna, the character clearly intended to be last considering you have to beat a level 80 mission only unlocked by colelcting all pieces of an illustration to get her.

I like how bride lucina's shoes became entirely different shoes

last time it updated at 7 pm EST on the 20th (timezones!) Assuming that wasn't just a weird fluke, it will probably hit at 7 pm est on the 14th.

I always considered Swarm dark magic, personally, but whatever SD's weird in having a bunch of "Typeless" magic. Could you get that one actually? I might have mixed it up with a different game or the meteor tome. But I still think that, if they wanted, they could totally give her ruin and it'd be one of those acceptable breaks in the same vein as Robin using Nosferatu as a tactician in Smash or Ruin here or the previously mentioned Rexaura. Or frederick throwing out tornadoes. I did forget NOsferatu was light magic in them, though. Saw it in the tome lists and just threw it as dark magic Nosferatu's kind of weird...depending on the game it's either a light magic (or light-ish in the typeless games) or dark magic. Or in the case of Fates, somehow the only actually dark magic that requirse a specific class/skill and not literally summoning spires of darkness Goetia. and thanks for the moonlight clarification.

This is a really minor sticking point I realize, but people keep calling her a light mage She isn't. Aura is her signature tome, so I get why she's associated with it in the same way Merric gets considered a wind mage, but Shadow Dragon & Mystery don't differentiate between magics. She can use any magic the player can get their hands on. There's no reason she couldn't use Ruin, were it a spell in her original games. If she gets a new move set yeah it will probably be light based (and tharja will be dark based in this scenario i assume) but it's not like she's locked into being a light mage or that ruin means she MUST be a unique. e: Speaking of, are Leo/Elise using Starlight with their weird light attack? I can never make out what they say.

I'd say Alm? Alm's is inredibly useful, helps slay dragons without getting hit in return and depending on the situation he can probably do it again next turn due to his healing. If you're using him mostly for arena assault, you'll probably use him as a dragon nuke pretty often and he should do the job better than some of your other optoins depending on the set up.

I gave a bond to my halloween henry. I think, in general, it's hard to go wrong giving it to an armor. They're very likely, even with armor march, to be near other units and can usually benefit and get a little more long lasting than using fury. Henry in particular enjoys the extra defense when facing archers or needing ot be in the line of fire (I also usually put the close defense seal on him) So I'm starting to grind arena medals since the refine update finally has me wanting them. But is there anything that actually determines how many you get or is it just pure randomness like badges in the tower. Because sometimes I get like 41 (!) and other times like 20 no matter what the level of arena I do or how well I do in it

Not being upgradable is kind of lame. At least have the HP threshold be 75%

I think it's literally Armor Boots. +1 Movement to an armored unit

Yeah these armors are getting pretty ridiculous. Like I guess if you want to be charitable, maybe the fancy clothing is really stiff but Lyn had no problems wearing a bridal gown so I know special armors are hard to fit in and we need more weapons on them but there's gotta be better ways guys.

time for my armor squad to ride again. Think I'll try Zephiel/H-Henry/Eliwood for kicks and hopefully one of Lyn or Hector if I can get them. or horse emblem again, i fi get unlucky.

Eliwood feels like the reward this time since he's kind of the odd one out Lyn/Hector feels like a pairing they'd push more than Lyn/Eliwood

i wonder how many times they had to rerecord that line before they got it right because i bit my tongue just reading it

god i might whale for them i love all the outfits

My point wasn't "Owain should have had the real one" it was it would complete the set of references by having a legendary jurgdal lance, axe and (fake but shhh) sword

You don't make a game mode like this and not give players access to them Like they already said we'll get some out of the training maps and they've already dipped their feet into giving them as prizes in the tempest. I assume moving forward we will start seeing more given away in quests, tempests (this mini lacked one, but I'm guessing moving forward they'll be permanent fixtures) and quests (definitely thrown into monthyl quests I imagine). I bet the tap dungeon will give at least one as well. Plus they give F2P playesr Fjorm (Did You Know? You can get her as a 5* hero for FREE by completing chapter 1 of book 2!) and her blessing. Assuming at least one blessing from any of the 5 training maps, that's already 3 and there's almost certainly going to be one consistent freebie SOMEWHERE for you to use. That's already a full team of 4, with 3 of your choosing. If Vanguard Ike wins, that's another hero to use and another blessing available to everyone forever because he'll be in a xenologue. They'll probably never be super super common, and I'm guessing the content in that mode will be balanced properly. I would not worry about it.

From the notice board

the tap dungeon, presumably

They say it so low I can never make it out (aside from Goetia, Arcfire, and whatever spell Elise uses in her special that i cant even begin to spell). I only just now heard Validar basically whisper out Thoron. Thanks for the clarification
