I regret some skill choices... 😀
This is probably my favorite game mode now. It's a pity that it is so limited. Boosted experience and SP events are not supposed to apply to this event. However, my units level up so fast that I wonder if the permanent double experience from the castle upgrades is in effect.
-
Took 5 free tenfolds, 30 single tickets, 4 tenfold tickets, and ~27,000 wyrmite to get the Gala Prince... The only other gala unit was a duplicate Sarisse. I guess it was good to get him now, as I didn't manage to get Gala Cleo even with focus rates last time. Still missing Ranzal too.

And the countdown to the anniversary begins! Thousands of Eldwater, over 100k in Mana, 14 Summon Vouchers, and 1200 Wyrmite are great gifts.
For FE Heroes players not familiar with Dragalia resources:
- 50,000 Eldwater = about 40,000 feathers or a couple hundred sacred coins - these can be mixed and matched since Eldwater is a combined resource in Dragalia
- 100,000 Mana = enough Skill Points to learn the main skills for a few characters - it is not tied to any particular character like in Heroes
- 1,200 Wyrmite = 10 pulls which is about 40 orbs assuming complete circles
- Secondary login bonus of two single summon tickets a day - these don't expire and are not tied to any banner like in Heroes
This is all just part of the countdown, not the actual anniversary gifts. They also gave an additional 1,200 Wyrmite for a bug they are fixing that trivialized* the newly released endgame boss challenge.
(*Basically it required one player to distract the boss by running around in perfect circles for several minutes, and also sacrificing another player at a particular section later. It apparently allowed guaranteed wins with virtually any characters/builds and required no real skill, but it still took a long time to actually perform.)
On 9/19/2019 at 12:51 PM, Midnox said:what’s with that Imitation Squish anyway?
Up to five Imitation Squishums can be earned from current quest endeavors. Four can be traded for a Squishums sticker in the Void Treasure Trade. They might have made five available to allow one to be kept for collection purposes. Four of the five are earned through endeavors that require three clears each of the hardest Void trials. Only requiring four out of five allows a player to skip any one of the harder Void challenges and still get access to the new Squishums sticker. The Imitation Squishums are available under Normal endeavors, so their quests have no time limit.
Real Squishums are dropped from the hardest Void challenges and are the rarest item in the entire game. (Some estimate the rarity to be as high as 1/2000. No one knows for sure, but their squishiness is undeniable). They serve no purpose currently so they're more of a collectible. Real Squishums are gold level rarity while the Imitation Squishums are bronze level. Imitation Squishums are not dropped currently, so the five they are offering are the only ones available.

Prioritizing a superboon for no reason other than "it's a superboon" is not worth it. It's not worth giving up 3 points in a useful stat for 4 points in a less useful stat.
Defensive stats make more sense to use as an Asset the fewer merges you have on a unit. The more merges you have, the more you should lean towards Atk (or Spd for fast tanks).
The higher attack has certainly worked well so far. Extra resistance probably wouldn't change that much. It would help a little against dragons, but he's not that great against dragons anyway, so that probably wouldn't help much overall.
7 hours ago, Xenomata said:33 Res is average at best, which is bad for Dorcas whose total 28 Spd at +9 merge 10 Flower won't stop any doubles whatsoever, which the majority of mages pack far more of.
If you really want to have a Res Asset, you'd go all out on his Res. I'm thinking Warding Stance 4 and Warding Stance SS for a grand total of 47 Res on Enemy Phase, not counting ally skills boosting Res, and going up to 48 once you manage to +10 him. Maybe pack Distant Defense 4 instead if you want to take on Bladetomes better. Either way, support from either Infantry Breath or Spec. Refine Brave Lucina will go a long way as well.Even still, it's niche. The only advantage Dorcas has over other Axes is that he owns the only Distant Counter axe in the game, which lets him pack a powerful A passive over Distant Counter, but there are other Melee Greens with far better Res even packing Distant Counter, not to mention Axes who simply delete all incoming damage anyway (cough cough).
Yeah, 33 resistance isn't really all that high I guess.
-
I've been using +atk Dorcas which works well, but I got a +res copy on his recent banner. Not sure which is better overall. The extra attack often helps with survival, since he can one-shot tomes fairly easily with double Fierce Stance or a Brazen skill. However, +res is a superboon. Mine would have nine total merges and ten flowers, so the extra four resistance could be useful. (At +10, it's 29 resistance with +atk, and 33 resistance with +res.)

I mainly played Heroes because I didn't have a console to play the main series games. In fact, I've never actually played a Fire Emblem game. (I've just watched lots of Let's Plays on YouTube over the years.) If they start bringing back older Fire Emblem games on the Nintendo Switch, then I probably wouldn't play Heroes very much at that point. (Of course, I'd have to actually get a Switch first.)

I'm reasonably content with the content for now at least. Reruns aren't actually reruns for me yet, so that's not an issue. (Not that down time is really bad either.) I'd like to see more interesting content based on exploring the maps rather than just rushing to the boss. The game has only been around a year, so there's still lots of time to try new things.
I don't really care for the new banner, but that just means more savings for the anniversary. I know a lot of people do have attachment to characters from Knights of Glory, and I'm happy that the current banner adds more characters that people have been specifically waiting for.
I got lucky and got Victor off of the previous banner. He's great and also happens to have one of the better character stories. If the anniversary is as good as the six month anniversary with the Heroes crossover event, that will be good enough for me. I really just want them to implement a dream summon that allows gala and limited units even if it's only once a year.
22 hours ago, Midnox said:I’m surprised with extras, those aren’t much tougher than hard.
I was surprised too since those are easy. They even let us auto void Agni which is much harder. I can finally auto most void battles. I can't auto Agni yet, but I can solo him without too much trouble.
23 hours ago, Sire said:I don't know if I really need to start making Void Battle weapons or if I can just get by with my 5* weapons of varying quality. Also, I've mostly been soloing Void Battles on the rare occasion, so that is likely the main reason for my lack of progression. I also haven't touched Advanced Dragon Trials at all yet.
I've only made void weapons that are actually used to beat void battles. I haven't bothered making void weapons meant for Advanced Dragon Trials. You can use coop to beat the harder void battles, just make sure to bring the right void weapon so you can actually help in the battle. You don't need any void weapons for the tier one void bosses, and there are a few other void battles (like the Hermits, Poseidon, etc.) where the void weapon isn't really helpful.
Don't miss out on the void endeavours since they are the easiest way to get rare void seeds. They also added water and fruit to the void treasure trade, so there's an extra source of resources if you have lots of extra leaves.

Two 5*s, one unfeatured, in a single ten summon? That is incredible luck.
Well, I did have a 5.5% pity rate before doing the ten-fold summon. So it was somewhat lucky, but not really exceptional. (The pity rate applies to the entire session regardless of any 5* characters that appear.)
26 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said:She for some reason gives less total Might than an no-unbindings Unicorn though.
Unicorn probably has some levels or dragon roost bonding. Both of those can raise might significantly.
34 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said:Shredding the boss's HP is easy with Cupid, but for some reason, my characters were getting slammed and my first two plays ended with multiple characters dying.
Cupid's heal is really helpful for that fight, especially for the Nightmare difficulty. If you can manage to beat nightmare once (easiest Nightmare so far), you'll not only get one of the daily Grand Bounty rewards, but you'll also get a Twinkling Sand for the first clear.
23 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said:Is it the plants making Poison (and Curse?)
I think they just create bubbles that cause curse, not poison. I've been using Alfonse as my main unit, and he's never gotten poisoned from the bubbles.

@Interdimensional Observer @Midnox
I decided to go ahead and see if 10 summons would break the pity rate. The game gives me another Summer Luca. 😐 Hahaha 🤣
I also got Summer Siren, Nefaria, and another Roc, so that's pretty good I guess.

I used 38 single vouchers get to my Summer Luca, going down from 85 to 47. But it was worth it!
Taking 140 summons for Luca is awful. A 2% chance meant you should've got him in 50 I think. But if you tenfold summoned, then that likelihood should be even higher, with a 14% chance for him on that tenth spot.
It's a 2.33% chance for a particular focus 4*, I think. I used a few free summons, a couple single summons with wyrmmite, 30+ single tickets, a ten-fold ticket, and 12,000 wyrmmite (10 sets of ten summons) before he appeared. I even got one session with five 4* units, but he wasn't there. I'm not sure what percentile that is, but I was kind of impressed with how much that took. Especially with all the guaranteed 4* units from the ten summons. Doubt I'll ever be that "lucky" again. 😛 The featured dragon has a higher rate (0.8%) than off-focus dragons, but all the 5* dragons I got were off-focus. I'm fine with that since I didn't like the featured one anyway (although it is a free sunstone ore).
Just realized I still have a 5.5% rate on that banner. It's really strange to chase a 4* focus unit. 😀
15 hours ago, Midnox said:Well, thank goodness I’ve cleared the challenge nightmare. I was close to losing yesterday, but today got with some time to spare thanks to upgraded facilities.
in other news, got over 37000 wyrmites, 150 vouchers p, and 6 tens. Do you recommend me to spend some in attempting to get hot bikini dark skinned beauty? Or keep saving them for the anniversary? I was considering in trying to get bikini Verica, but since the anniversary is getting closer and closer...
If you really want her, then now is the time to summon (unless you plan on using a dream summon later which is a viable option). If you just kind of want the character, then I'd probably wait. I've spent over 20,000 wyrmmite chasing a unit on more than one occasion. You'll likely get her with that amount, but it could take a lot. In 140+ summons on this banner, the only featured units I saw were a single Cleo and Luca. I did get quite a few of the other focus 4* units (Fleur and Unicorn).

It's funny that Sigrun requests a chalkboard to explain tactics. There just so happens to be one nearby since I'm using the classroom layout.

The Summer Raid was good. Was it luck or was it fixed that I got three Crystallian Envoys from the Blazon Summons?.
That's lucky. I got two across ten boxes, which is average I think.
It actually took 140+ summons to get 4* Summer Luca... That was painful. 😛 He should be quite useful on my light team though. (I only had three 5* light units and one is the free Alfonse.)
The only other focus unit I got was one Summer Cleo. She was pretty much the only focus that I didn't want. (Summer Siren could at least have provided another sunstone ore.)
Wasn't all bad as I got some other useful things and a lot of eldwater which I was short on. 🙂
-
The new mode was so very close to what I wanted from Heroes from the start; they just forgot to add the actual battle portion. 😀
It's free flowers at least. Can always use more of those.
-
The free summon had four reds and one colorless... got my first Faye. I'd kind of like to keep a copy before giving Bow Lyn firesweep though.
I've had fairly good luck getting random 5*s with free summons, but can't seem to get much of anything with actual orbs lately. 😀
-
Brave Hector and Brave Lyn make a great team. With Legendary Ike and Legendary Azura, I managed to beat Abyssal. Brave Hector with Omnibreaker is nearly invincible. He cleared out the middle. Sothis didn't stand a chance. Ike handled a couple of greens and Lyn took care of the rest.

Here's a like-for-like orb cost comparison. Source is this guy.
Best case scenario for both is predictably green, where we can compare Edelgard's 106 median and 144 average orb cost against 122/172 for Yune (or any specific green unit on the banner). Worst case is of course red, Byleth's 126/172 against 145/203 (if we pretend one of the greys last month was Mythic).
Interesting that basically pulling a focus red on 6% banner is extremely close in cost to pulling a specific green on an 8% banner.
Sorry for this rather late response; I somehow missed your post.
Those numbers don't reflect my experiences over many banners. I spend much more than 144 on average for specific units on a four unit banner, and mythic banners have been even worse. Yune was a green unit too. Perhaps I've just been unlucky in Heroes this year.

I think it costs around 100-200 Orbs to snipe a unit in a regular Focus. Not sure about Legendary/Mythic Foci though, but I do not think it would be that much more expensive.
I've spent well over 600 orbs trying to get mythics lately and have failed to get any. Got several copies of shared color units for my effort. Poor Johann spent around 900 orbs for a single Naga. Getting specific units from Legendary/Mythic banners can very painful. Without doing any calculations, I'm guessing the cost is at least three times higher for specific units on a Legendary banner.
I have four mythic units total and only one came from a Mythic banner.
- Free Eir
- Free Duma from the anniversary banner (25% chance)
- Duma from the anniversary banner (orbs)
- Eir from a mythic banner (the only mythic I have ever gotten on a mythic banner)

Here's the code for the Serenes Forest Alliance: 6807 1679
I don't see anything like a white bird available for crests, so for now the icon is Brynhildr. Because fire.
I'm open to suggestions for the noticeboard message which sits below the alliance name.
Would be nice to complete the alliance quest - a coop battle with alliance members. (The reward won't be given out until mid August.)
Since it is a forest, perhaps there is a "tree" icon? (Completely unbiased suggestion. Definitely not related to anyone's username... 😛)
Just a note: there is apparently a 24 hour wait required after leaving or disbanding an alliance. This means that you can't access the "create alliance" button to look at options (like icon choices, etc.) after joining one.

Went for 1 of 2 greens and I got a +HP/-Atk B!Ephraim!?!
I got one of those (with the same IV) from a free pull on a weekly rerun banner not long ago. Today, I got my second free pull Ephraim [+hp,-def] from the single green orb on his banner. The game wouldn't give me any on the original brave heroes banner, and then gives me two free pull ones. (Happily merged now.)

@Raven I'd potentially be interested in an SF alliance. Will have to pick an icon from their selection. Something related to SF would be nice - perhaps a white bird (if they have something like that). I do hope they don't add any form of scoring competition between alliances as that could make it difficult for casual players to find one to join. They are doing a decent job managing the game so far though.
@Interdimensional Observer I think the two-part aspect will be similar to the Heroes crossover event where a second portion of the event unlocked after about a week. However, there was only a single Heroes banner. As for Heroes, I'm kind of tired of it too, and I'm not too fond of the direction it's been headed for awhile either. I'll guess I'll still collect the easy stuff for now.

Yeah, me too. At least we know they'll likely get alts in Heroes, so there should be some options there too eventually.

You got them all! I was hoping to get Dimitri or Claude with my five free tries, but I'll have to wait for later. I think Claude wants to be friends with Bow Lyn.

@daisy jane Nintendo should work with the mobile game publishers to add yearly quests on the linked Nintendo account. These would give out gifts for their various mobile games on a user's birthday. I think around twenty orbs would be appropriate for Heroes. 😀

I noticed your +10 L'Arachel visiting. I had a surplus of feathers and 10 spare 4* copies, so I merged mine up recently. A Sacred Stones YouTube "Let's play" was my introduction to the Fire Emblem series.
