    At least they fixed the fact that the easiest node was also the most efficient for farming dango.

    The beast unit transformation isn't contingent on being untransformed. It checks the unit's positioning at the start of every turn: if the condition is met, the unit transforms into beast form, if it failed, the unit reverts to humanoid form. This happens regardless of whether the unit is currently transformed or not (though the animation doesn't play if they are transformed). They didn't put a conditional on the transformation that states it only happens when the unit is not transformed, only on the animation. The wording is consistent with the behavior of the effect (where 'transform' is shorthand for the condition being met), it just isn't necessarily intuitive in English. The +Mov/+Mt, or +Bushido/+Mt effects of transformation are really more additional effects the units gain if they meet the transformation condition at the start of the turn rather than being dependent on the transformation animation playing at the start of the turn. That is different from it being on all the time when they are transformed, though not really relevant given that we don't have buff cleansing. Though in my case, this is how I assumed it worked from the start after just reading the descriptions, so maybe I'm just weird.

    @Glaceon MageOnly one I have that you haven't listed so far is Marie (Rider). Since I don't think you're on my list and I currently have a free spot, my ID is 507.153.523 (user name is Zeth) if you're interested. Currently have it equipped on Dantes in the extra slot, since Marie's in Rider and I don't feel like taking down Mona Lisa. I'm personally skipping First Hassan. I think he's pretty cool, but I really don't need another Assassin at this point, and I need to cut back on spending for a bit anyways.

    It's lore based, generally based on how good a Class is in a direct, close quarters combat situation, I think. For example, Assassin and Caster have low multipliers because the classes are generally the weakest in a direct combat situation, and Archers have a lowered multiplier due to their original focus on ranged attacks. It's a huge generalization, given that exceptions exist all over the place, but I think that's the justification for the multiplier, as due to game mechanics, all fights are pretty much always direct, close quarters combat.

    Yes it does, because it's the feeling that IS was trying to evoke with the Elizabethan character designs. For many people, Elizabethan era clothing is romantic due to associating it with the idea of courtly love (possibly due to fact that the most identifiable modern association with Elizabethan era clothing is Shakespeare). It is a different take on the holiday than the modern frivolity, and it is odd that IS went with a more serious approach for Valentine's rather than the completely frivolous approach used for most other seasonals. Edit: @Sunwoo, while the story ultimately focused on non-romantic love, Hector was clearly expecting Lilina's gift to be romantic (and meant for someone else) due to the festival.

    IS decided to theme the units around the time Valentine's became associated with romance (14th to 18th century), rather than modern Valentine's 'theming' (probably because it fits FE's general medieval feel more). Also, it's Elizabethan style, not Victorian style. Edit: Look up the term 'courtly love': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courtly_love

    I honestly expect any potential inheritance to be done a la dragon/bow/dagger, where everything is shared among all colors somehow, as there simply aren't enough beasts of each type to fill out a color wheel very well. I have no idea how the naming scheme for that would work though, given the differences in tribes. We'll find out as soon as the patch drops, as they will need to add the Beast icon selection to the skill search on the Skill Inheritance screen (though I suppose it might not show up until you've pulled a beast unit, not entirely sure how that works since you can only search for skills that your units know).

    Denies follow-ups, not counters. It's closer to a breaker.

    Illya has an Interlude on JP that adds +20% NP gain to her after the NP, helping her to NP again faster, which helps to make her damage more consistent. Xuanzang's Strengthening only gave her Def ignore by comparison, which means Illya gained more from her buff than Xuanzang did.

    Jokes are supposed to be funny. Sorry, it's really hard to tell that you were joking, so I figured I'd point that out in case anyone actually seriously thought that.

    That's a reference to a Japanese tradition where children get a gift of money from their parents (or other notable adults around them) on New Year's, not a reference to the bundles.

    Here's some more of her new animations:

    For people only following Global server, sometime in the next year would be a good time to watch the Moonlight/Lostroom OAV, as it's a bridge between Part 1 (which we just finished) and Part 2 (which we'll probably get in about a year). There's one minor spoiler for Epic of Remanent (our story content for the next year) in the OAV that I remember, but otherwise it doesn't really touch on those chapters.

    KR server is managed by a company apparently known for being shifty (Netmarble). Global's issues are more PR complications than much else, that possibly stem from JP bias from the developers, since Global and JP are managed by the same company.

    Tama-cat is also getting an animation update from what I've heard.

    I am legitimately surprised to see the trailer today. I guess whoever's in charge of the news doesn't get a day off any more. Fae's kind of surprising, given that she's not really notably popular, but more Himukai Yuji art is nice (kind of wish he'd drawn more than just Fae and Raigh). I'll probably be aiming mainly for Eirika, with Fae as the secondary prize, though I want one Ephraim just to keep my full collection of SS units.

    Hinoka's single alt hasn't even existed for a year yet. Kinshi Hinoka was in April. Not disagreeing that some of the Fates royals are overexposed, just pointing out that Hinoka's alt is more recent than Sakura, Leo, or Elise's.

    The main issue is that they very rarely release trailers on Saturdays (if at all, I don't actually remember any point when they did so). I thought that there had been a seasonal when they'd released the silhouettes on Friday evening, and the trailer Sunday evening, but looking at the twitter I can't find any (can't check all of them because Twitter only goes back so far for me), as the ones available to check are all consistently 24 hours after the silhouettes, as you mentioned. I personally don't expect the trailer to drop until tomorrow.
  21. YotsuMaboroshi
    Not likely. Not only do they not usually post things on Saturdays, the banner starts 12/17 at 11pm PST, or generally speaking, sometime 12/18 for most people. So you can probably expect the trailer about 24 hours after when you expected it, or roughly 31 hours from the time of this post.

    For some reason I missed the dagger icon. Not sure why I forgot icons displayed on the map, not just the unit status.
  23. YotsuMaboroshi
    It is entirely possible for the "dagger" to be a staff, technically. I'm inclined to say dagger is most likely just because it looks like a dagger, but they could claim the dagger is a ceremonial dagger used to cast spells to justify it as a staff. The really weird thing about that screenshot is that it's showing movement for an enemy unit, which I don't think shows up (unless I turned it off immediately and then forgot about it).

    Mostly because Babylonia comes after Camelot. Camelot introduced gimmick fights to the story, and in general feels like a larger increase in difficulty from America than the transition from Camelot to Babylonia. So people are more likely to be surprised by the difficulty of Camelot, and therefore more likely to comment on it.

    Alternately they were left in as a way to tribute to Aono. Seems silly to us, but considering Sakurai mentioned that Incineroar's VA recently died during his reveal as a way of paying respects, they might consider more respectful to leave them in.
