Starting to regret jumping the gun on foddering the hot springs Camilla so quickly. That's 40 flowers down the tube...
Yeah, I did the same. You can always spend 100 grails though. You'd get 40 blue flowers and another copy of Hone Fliers (at 4*), so not too bad for 100 grails I guess. The loss of a copy is annoying, but I was never going to use the character anyway. It doesn't really matter for older characters I no longer have, since they only provide two flowers.

Do you guys think that Titania was planned to be a color staff unit? Do you think she was originally designed to be a Red Staff user? I feel like it's only a matter of time we get color staff unit. Although I doubt they would release one for free.
I thought the same, but it's probably not the case. Ice Dragon answered my similar question here:

She's a red tome unit in the same way that Adrift Azura's and Camilla's weapons count as tomes.
Because the name of the weapon type in Japanese is "red magic", not "red tome".
Is it possible that she had a red staff planned, and they changed their mind about colored staffs? How do they refer to staffs in Japanese?

Nice guitar riff pose
Someone's going to edit a guitar in for sure.

Voted for Legendary Azura, because I want to see the world burn.
With gold orbs hiding the colors in the free summon, you'll only have a one-fourth chance of world burning.

Is the minigame active?
Yes, but it's on the website. There is a link in the app notifications. You have to use a mobile device (or at least tell the website you are on a mobile device.)

They better not pull this “random” crap for CYL3...
Hmm...so this is IS’s take on “Where’s Waldo?”...can’t say I like it.
I'm pretty sure they will if people don't protest enough. It would prevent players from using the free choice to get a character that eluded you.
-
I was hoping that gold orbs would be used for something special, but it looks like they are just there to hide the orb colors. They're only doing this on the free summon portion, but it's still a bad sign. Also, it appears that the search and vote minigame isn't in the app, but rather on the website. That lowers the chance of getting larger, scrollable maps in the game...

if anyone out there still fights the good fight for Leif, there's 15 minutes of 7.2× multiplier left.
Let's send the meme meister back to the abyss from whence he came.
I wasn't keeping track of the voting, but thanks to your post, I rushed to get one battle done. I didn't finish before the hour changed, but since I started just before, it still gave me the bonus points. If Leif loses, I'm not sure who to pick for the next round.

How does it determine? You mean the number you get right?
It appears that heroes from newer books earn more flowers. That's not necessarily an issue in itself, it's just that there is a disparity. The flowers associated with heroes shown in the channel had the following quantities:
Book III hero - 40 flowers
Book II hero - 8 flowers
Book I hero - 2 flowersIt takes around 600 total flowers to add five stat points to a single hero (with the final stat requiring 200 flowers). Current infantry can add ten total points. It will cost more than 600 flowers most likley, but the flowers cost increases are lowered - the exact amount is not known.

Are you sure? I mean, it doesn't seem like every set of refines is better than the previous. It just seems to me that some refines are good and some are just meh.
I expect that he'll get a refine similar in quality to Cherche's Axe, but it will probably be more based on defense.

@indigocean I had two Alms and merged them because of the update... Well, I know where my next two copies of Alm could be going.
-
Amelia might have been picked for arena scoring. She already has enough bst, just lacked the weapon. I think Nino and other already good units getting refines means that Frederick still has a good chance.
-
The way Heroic Ordeals determines the number of flowers is downright nasty.
Edit: It's just a game, so added smiley to remove seriousness.

There's apparently going to be a Darting Blow 3 sacred seal, so if I can get double Darting Blow on Ephraim...
Does that do what I think it does?

Wait, who says Gen 3 units won't be able to use the flowers?
What they said is that future infantry will only be able to get the usual 5 points out of them rather than the higher 10.
I checked again, and you appear to be right. Thanks for looking that up. That does lower the value for non-infantry.

Woah, I respect every opinion but hold on a second here. Yes, the fact it's random sucks, but in which universe 56 orbs are better than two 5* heroes? I have seen people so unlucky they got crazy pity rates of 7% only to be pity broken by the trashiest character possible. For how the game works you could spend 100 orbs and get nothing.
Are you arguing that "nothing" is better than two 5 stars?
Even if you got two seasonals you already have, wouldn't that be better than free orbs to spend on a promising new banner, just to get pitybroken by Mist/Luke/Leo?
Besides, orbs come and go, but we don't know how they are gonna bring back year 1 seasonals. For all we know this could be the last chance to get them at all, making them more valuable than simple currency on principle.
The 3* and 4* units I would get in 56 orbs would provide better skills than the actual 5* I got. The fact that it's two 5*s helps the value somewhat though. The orbs might not directly result in a 5*, but statistically they would contribute to more copies of my target units. For those that don't like most seasonal units, there isn't that much value here. With the color distribution of these particular seasonal units, even trying to get units with useful skills is hard.
The pity percent isn't that big of a deal as far as actually getting units. Honestly, I'd take Mist, Luke, or Leo since I don't have any of those. (I like 5* healers. Luke and Leo would be good for my cavalry brigade, and they both have at least one good skill too.)

This was still a generous event on IS' part. :)
Well, last year we got 56 more orbs. These two random 5* seasonal summons are worth less than that to me. If you really like seasonal units and also happen to get one you like, then perhaps that is better than 56 orbs. I doubt that is the case for most players. Free orbs and units are still good though even if it isn't as good of a deal as last year.

If everyone gets 2.5 levels all that happens is that everyone gets slightly bulkier. Which doesn't change units relative to each other.
Edit: If player units all get 2.5 levels all that happens is that player units get a bit better in general, which still doesn't change player units relative to each other. At least, not to any noticeable extent.
Edit: Correction - Gen 3 units will likely be able to use the flowers too. (Gen 3 infantry are limited to 5 flowers rather than the 10 allowed for previous infantry.)
Gen 3 units (which are probably coming soon) won't be able to use the flowers (at least not at first), so it's more of a boost to gen 1 and 2 units to make them more competitive against gen 3 units. Not that it's really enough make up the difference, but perhaps it will help a little. -

I think Kaga's heart was in the right place, but there's some mechanics that I don't find fun at all. If you're interested, my advice is NOT to do a blind run - research how the game works before diving in. It's not a game for everyone.
Ok, good to know. Perhaps they'll re-release it and fix the issues someday.

Neither do I~! Never made it to the second half of FE4, and I have no plans on playing Thracia, ever. So, let's learn together~!
Is Thracia not as good, or does it just need its gameplay updated to modern standards?

I'm on Team Leif, because I pulled him. Go Leif~!
I honestly have no idea who Leif is, nor do I have one. But I'm glad he won because I'm on his team. (I really wish they would release more games internationally, and remaster old ones.)

If limited units like Naesala or the Black Knight won, could we get them with IVs after the free summon?
Heroic Ordeals: A Speculation on a Missed Opportunity
in Fire Emblem Heroes
Posted
I think they will add grails and flowers to other modes eventually, just in smaller quantities. This will help people that don't like Aether Raids, and also give a few extra to those who do play the mode. Regular arena could replace the 100 arena medals with 10 grails. Flowers (20 or so of each color) would fit nicely into the four colors of Forging Bonds.
I think my disappointment was that I thought the Heroic Ordeals would actually be a significant source of flowers. (The map variety was underwhelming too.) But, when I think of those flowers as just a small starting amount (like the initial 200 grails), then it isn't so bad. I think flowers are supposed to only be applied to the most favorite units, rather than be an upgrade across the board. I certainly wouldn't mind getting more resources though.
