  1. Reginn's refinement and remix should be in February, since that's the month Fjorm, Eir and Peony got theirs

    Since Lilina and Reginn were also moved to Remixes, that means Embla is not alone in August's Legendary banner and Lilina's rerun in January is probably her remix.

    Both Seliph and Freyja got some nice upgrades. Waiting for the refinement now.

    The Tea Party theme looks nice, but that's a skip anyway. Desperation 4 exists now. I wonder if that 1 damage at start of turn that Lysithea took is from her weapon or from Desperation 4.

    Hero Fest looks nice. The only one I don't care much about is Alear.

    10 free 5* Seasonals is welcomed, and those daily maps are also great. 

    Overall, a decent FEH Channel. August Channels are usually okay, but this one was a little better than what we usually get. And of course a reminder at the end, that later this month we are getting a CYL Channel.

  2. We should have a Feh Channel in less than 9 hours from now. Outside the content that was datamined, we should expect from this Channel (based on previous years's channels):

    • Old 5* Heroes being added to the 4* Special Rate. Those heroes being: Jill, Shinon, Gatrie, Catherine, Shamir, Flayn, Dieck, Guinivere, Melady, Duessel, Selena, Asbel, Ronan, Sara, Annand, Azelle and Erinys. All 5* Heroes released between September 2021 to February 2022.
    • A look on the August 2023's Remixes. For this month, it should be Seliph and Triandra or Freyja. We will also have new Legendary and Mythics Heroes added to the Remix Banners: Mirabilis, Seliph, Hel, Corrin, Plumeria, Dimitri, Triandra and Freyja. These 8 heroes should get their remixes and refinements in August, September and November of 2023, and January of 2024.
  3. So... I almost couldn't do this clear, because I was not able to deal with that Manakete in the front. I had to debuff them, but couldn't do it normally because Freyr nullifies penalties that trigger at start of turn. My solution was using Legendary Lucina, because her Future Vision II has the Snag effect, but I don't really like using her because she is not a Marth. Then I thought about giving Snag to my Groom Marth, but he needed Desperation. But then, the idea appeared: what if... I use TWO Groom Marths?

    @Xenomata That was a nice clear. Lethe with the new B skill is insane! So much damage reduction, and so much Phantom Speed effect! She did well holding the left side while the others took care of the right side. And at the end, with all that damage reduction, she took so little from that Ignis!

    @GuiltyLoveI am sorry that you could deal with Freyr with only Macedon Team or only Dragons Team, and had to combine them. But you did great on this clear, working with the Catrias and Maria to deal with all the ranged units, and leaving the melee ones to Grima. Maybe next time he reruns, your Macedon Team will have new skills that will help you. I am very sure my Marths wouldn't be able to do most of my clears before Winter Marth's refinement.

    @BoaFerox Nice clear, Boa! The warping is not insane with the new skill, and very impressive that Flame Tana could deal with Freyr so easily!

  4. Elimine still grants Def/Res+6 to allies for 1 turn, and then grant Def/Res+4 and Damage Reduction during combat. Still a decente role. I usually use her alongside Naga to buff all the stats of allies, but Heidr can also buff Atk/Spd too. And having Def/Res buffs increase the damage granted by Heidr's Treachery, which is welcomed.

    About Duels... I couldn't care less about it, but I have a friend that wants at least to keep the 5,000 glory they have, so we try to match each other everytime so I can give them a free win. We usually can do it.

    The weird thing about Fallen Fafnir is, he and regular Fafnir have the same hero title. I don't know if that's also true of the Japanese version, but if so, it'd be a really odd situation that could indicate a lack of plans to make them both playable. Although they could just give a different title to the playable version of one of them.

    They can change that no problem though.

    Playable Heiðr is called "Innocent Goddess", while enemy Heiðr is the "Cursed Goddess". Legendary Veronica in the story is the "Princess Beset", but then became the "Princess Rising" when her banner released.

    My main complain about Fallen Fáfnir is his art, honestly. They reused the OG Fáfnir's art as a base, and then added the extra effect and design changes... but he is still mounted in his mecha in the attacking and damaged arts, which doesn't match the type of unit he is in that version.

    Do people still like this game mode anymore?

    I actually like Aether Raids, honestly. It can be challenging and BS sometimes, but it can also be fun when you finally discover a way to counter a defensive team. It is more enjoyable than Duels to me, that's for sure.

  6. He looks good.

    His C skill is quite supportive. It needs testing, but could it counter Elimine's False Start? Like, you False Start Catria so she can't trigger her weapon, or you False Start an Armored Unit so they can't charge their defensive special with Hardy Fighter... But then Freyr nullifies that penalty and allow his allies to trigger their skills?

    I feel like he arrived three books too late at this point. I don't think I believe that IS knew what was going to happen with their story so far ahead of time that they felt they would be able to hold onto Freyr and drop him in during a main book entry that includes his aunt, and during a TT+ story arc revolving around his book. I kinda wish they'd just released him closer to his book's end and instead of clogging up the mythic lineup with so many OCs just give us characters like regular Deghinsea or Anri or Roland or whatever.

    What I will say is that it's good he is finally playable in his base form though. And I guess this gives hope for regular Fafnir and regular Elm as well. Even though they should've just been released after their books!

    For Freyr to become playable now, makes me believe he will have a role in the current TT story, considering Peony and the others fairies are inside Freyja's Dreams. I can see him being the next TT boss or something.

    So we could kinda predict Fáfnir becoming playable next year at some point during the Book 5 TT story, and Elm in 2025 for the same reason?

    I agree that would prefer having him back in 2020, or early 2021.

    I'm not even confident Griss will come with Nova since he's almost certainly going to be a GHB unit and a Brave Tome on a free unit might be considered too powerful.

    I can see them changing the effect of Nova in FEH, from a Brave Tome to a Desperation Tome. Catherine got that threatment when she released, since Thunderbrand in Three Houses is a Brave Sword. That or it will be like Whitecap Bow, that has a Spd check to trigger its Brave effect.

    However, I don't remember Griss being a fast unit in Engage... Magic can be quite heavy as well in that game.

    With that said, we got Male Shez last month with his dual phase brave lance that also has Spd based damage. So It's totally possible Nova has a brave effect. Maybe only player phase and not dual phase, and being 9 Mt like Dire Thunder.

    Celine in Engage is an amazing character, she's surprisingly deep if you watch the right supports. Incidentally, her support with Alcryst is really good for both of them.

    And they're both very meh when translated into Heroes.

    On a slightly related note, I have to take back what I said about Engage's story writing. It's not the worst story I've ever seen in FE, or even a video game. Heroes is the worst. It's so bad I think I forgot Heroes technically has a story.

    The only supports from Céline that really stuck with me were Alear & Céline and Alfred & Céline. But at least she is still a good character. I don't dislike her. She is charming.

    She is not Goldmary, so that's enough to me. lol

  9. Yeah. Heroes forces his personality too much. He is not 100% annoying in Engage.

    I confess I don't remember many of his supports though, but the little he appeared in story cutscenes he was alright. But I believe his supports is where that this side of him appears the most.

    It's like Céline in Engage. Céline during the story is quite nice, but then 90% of her supports is about having tea and talking about having tea. Kinda boring, tbh.

    I would like to point out that if the rotation of titles in Limited Hero Battles works like it usually does, then the next time Engage shows up will be for Gotoh and Fomortiis in September.

    That would be just a slight yikes for most people. Let’s just say I’m now especially glad that went out of my to get Summer Ivy.

    Oof... and that's in two months. We shouldn't get another banner until there.

    We could get a couple more seasonal units and maybe a Legendary or Mythic, but what we have now is pretty much what we will have to make work.

    As for me, I have 3 sword units (Alear, Alear, Lumera), 2 archers (Etie, Alcryst) and a lance cav (Alfred)... with a tome flier (Zethia) coming tomorrow. I will have to make it work, I guess. Hoping they release Windsweep Sacred Seal in the next 2 TTs so I can give that to Alcryst and he doesn't have to remove his B slot.

  11. I see people saying that Eitr may be Freyja. Because:

    • According to the "Meet the Heroes" website, Eitr was bullied when younger and had low self-esteem... just like Freyja.
    • She got her memories robbed by Ginnungagap, the ruler of nothingness, so she doesn't remember her past... so she may not remember who she really is.
    • She has a mark on her nose, which is something that young Freyja was made fun for.

    Turns out this is the case after all. No free lunch and all that, have to cough up the dew if you want the new effect.

    Honestly, I prefer this way. Be able to choose between the effects. It's like every Cavalry Beats got a new refinement.

    Now I wonder of that only applies to these old ones or if Freyja gets her refinement she will have both options or only the new one.

    Just what happened during their mission? Apparently, a way to revive Freyja was found, but something went wrong with Lif and Thrasir.

    Maybe it was the moment where Ganglot took control of Hel and they were bound to obey her, causing them to separate from Triandra and Plumeria?

    We don't have an idea of time in FEH. We don't know how long takes during the books, between books, or even if these TT stories happen soon after the respective book ended. Some times they mention time passing, like how the Summoner spent months with Kvasir in the ravine/cave. But then, that was in the past so it wouldn't affect time passing in the present.

  14. Citrinne is quite annoying, because she can be used alongside Bride Catria and Winter Cordelia, and give those effects to even the units those two can't reach depending on their position. Or she can splash the effects Askr givesas well.

    But she also looks fun to use. Like... If you ally support her with Fallen Lilith, she will provide NFU status to everyone. If with Noah, she will provide Dodge to everyone. With Alear, Charge to everyone. Looks fun to custom the team around her.

    About the datamine:

    I will guess that the transformation bonuses that Arcane Nihility grants will be the new Cavalry Transformation effect, like how when Ash released she had a new Infantry Transformation effect.

    Maybe Freyja will be in the remixes next month (it's between her and Triandra for the 2nd slot, since I am pretty sure Seliph is for sure one of the remixes), and she gets that effect by refining her weapon.

    Freyr having that as well, if he is the Mythic Hero later this month.

    I'm honestly betting on the unit having "Beast Dodge" as their new skill when they're released. Given how percentage damage reduction is pretty much a necessity for fast tanks due to their low defenses, I would be more surprised if the only source of damage reduction the unit had were the extremely unreliable 5-movement effect.

    If not, then it'll be on an exclusive skill, and other beasts will just have to keep waiting.

     

    The weapon's name in Japanese appears to be "魔器・虚無の角" (maki: kyomu no tsuno), "Arcane Weapon: Horns of Nihility". The "horns" had to be dropped in English due to length since the Japanese language has higher information density relative to physical display size.

    So even among cavalry, Arcane Nihility doesn't match the attacking body part on any character other than Freyja, Freyr, and Nerthuz. So yeah, I would not be surprised if the weapon is restricted to cavalry, but I would also not be surprised if the weapon has no movement-type restriction because in either case, you'd have beasts capable of attacking with nonexistent horns.

    I'm not convinced that they'll be changing the cavalry transformation effect. Given that we also have Fallen Muarim, who has a completely unique transformation condition, it's entirely possible that Arcane Nihility's transformation effect is also not a global change.

    Additionally, the follow-up prevention on the cavalry transformation effect actually matters for units that aren't super fast, so I don't think they would want to get rid of it globally for cavalry going forward.

    My guess is that both versions of Freyja will probably get Arcane Nihility's transformation effect whereas most other cavalry will continue to receive the standard effect.

     

    Well... Not only that's the new Cavalry transformation effect as I said before, but also every Cavalry Beast unit that got their refinement before this point will also have the transformation effect changed to the new one.

    So it is a global change.

  16. With Diamant, Alear and Lapis, that's 3 Sword units at the same time. With Zethia ends as a Sword fliers, that will be 4.

    That's why I wished the insta demote was Amber. Not only having a Diamant's retainer, but also a Engage Lance Cavalry unit for the main pool, since that doesn't exist yet.
