  1. Unfortunately I don't have a spare panic smoke fodder and I'm unwilling to give up my only thrasir and f!julia. I do have a spare Lif lying around if he would benefit from dc/time's pulse, otherwise i guess I'll just give him my last Hrid. Would JDA be better? I just got another Lilith as a pity breaker the other day. Yep, I definitely try to keep a copy of every unique hero I get. Good to know! I actually haven't gotten around to making one, so I guess I'll try. I've been sitting on grails now for an eternity waiting for a worthy grail project so I have over 5000 to play with. Nice! Good to know I have a valuable stack. Last time I had something that lucrative was when I ended up pulling 7 Amelias with armored march on some early Legendary banner long ago lol. I do have Yune, does she work better with her in particular? Might just make a new dark IP team with her. Welp, I guess I'll just slap them onto older units for sp bonuses. I wish there was a new mode to make them relevant again.
  2. Hey all, been a while since I was last here. I started playing FEH more seriously since the Brave Hero Bonanza a few months back so I've got a few questions brewing as of late. Can't remember all of them at the moment, but here are the ones I'm dealing with right now. 1. I just spent like 500 orbs trying to get as many L!Dimitris as possible and got him to +2 (its gonna be a long road to 10 >_<). I played around with his base kit and its fun, but i do want to give him all the premium fodder he wants since i will be trying to max him. I know the obvious path is to make him an enemy phase tank, but im already building a B!Dimitri as one (got him to +6 during his debut) so I want to make him more player phase or at least mixed phase. I also heard galeforcing would be good for him but I have a totally superficial issue with galeforce units in not being able to see their special arts when it activates. I know its a stupid thing to get hung up on, but if I can avoid making a galeforce build, I try. So is there any good build for him that doesn't lead me to make a copy of my B!Dimitri or force me to make him a galeforcer, or should I suck it up and pick one? 2. While summoning for said L!Dimitri, I summoned a boatload of Fallen Corrins. I don't really need another blue dragon, i already have an invested refined female corrin, but i hear he's also really good. Should I merge him all up or just hang onto the fodder? 3. I got the forma summer micaiah with some nice premium skills, but I cant decide what to bless her and where I want to use her. She has ruptured sky, sturdy impact, lull atk/res, and time's pulse, along with her standard weapon and dance. I use B!Lysithea as red magic nuke and peony as my dancer in light season, and i already use Kiria and Plumeria as red mages and dancer in Astra. I don't think she would be as useful in defense teams as shes more player phase (am I wrong?), so where should I use her? Bonus question: are the original blessings good for anything nowadays outside of arena cores or should i just replace them all with mythic blessings? I'm sitting on so many of them, and lately I've only been blessing every new unit I get for aether raids; im annoyed that some of my older units don't seem to score much for anything there with an old blessing, even when they are a bonus unit. I'll have more questions in the future I'm sure!
  3. Pennsylvania voter here, reporting in. Its been very surreal seeing Allegheny County as one of the focal points of this race, where I was born and lived my whole life. I'm proud to see that the majority of my state hasn't lost itself again to the disease that is Trumpism. These last several months have been so anxiety inducing for me, but somehow these past few days were almost even worse. I've been so terrified watching the early returns that Trump would steal it again, and even when it started going towards Biden I wasn't going to let myself believe it until it was officially called. I've only been old enough to vote in a few elections so far, but this one is by far the most important one to me. I'm glad to know that my family and I were a part of this; I even managed to convince my brother to vote for the first time, and I'm so happy that he and all the other people like him can finally see and understand that every vote does count! I wish it didn't have to be this close, and that says a lot about the people around us, but I'm confident that we have saved the nation from itself today and that hopefully we are going back in the right direction before its too late. I have hope once again. This is who we are at our core, not the last 4 years of Trump and his evil. I've been lurking in this thread whenever I'm at work and can't watch the vote counting on the news stations, so thanks to everyone who has been updating the thread with the state of the race. Its been a nail biting experience, but appreciated!
  4. Hey Silva, I hope everything is going fine on your end. Hope you're doing well. ^^

  5. So I've been away for awhile since I took a trip during February and was also avoiding Cindered Shadows spoilers, but I've managed to pull a bunch of new 5 stars in the meantime. I pulled Lucas as my anniversary seasonal freebie, which was ok since I didn't have him before. Nailah finally came home while summoning on the valentine's banner. I've been wanting her forever so this was great! I got pity broken while trying for Duo Alm at one point, but it was Hilda, so I was happy I finally got her! (I also got a resounding chorus of "Hilda! Hilda!" from the people around me at the FE party we were in a summoning circle with. Summon with other people when you can, it's good luck!) I got super lucky yet again on a skill banner and free summoned Igrene! I tried to get at least one unit from Dread Isle and got a Leila after 30 orbs~ I really had to stop myself from spending too many more orbs, but couldn't resist trying for L!Chrom at least once (he was my first husband in Awakening and I have a soft spot for him); thankfully I wasnt pity broken and got him within 40 orbs. So last night I thought I should stop while I was ahead and give up on Duo!Alm. I'd already been pity broken once but managed to pull an unexpected V!Faye. But I figured this being a seasonal meant that I wouldn't have another shot for a long time and this was the first Duo unit I actually cared about. So I try one more attempt to summon.....AND THEY CAME HOME ON THE FIRST GREEN PULL!!! I was sooo ecstatic, I didn't even care if the IVs were shit (+ spd - def, pretty ok I'd say)! I love their art so much! I own the official SoV soundtrack and I loved their designs on the cover; seeing it all the time in FEH now makes me even happier!!! 😄
  6. So I just reached 400+ orbs last night and I realized I hadn't pulled yet on the legendary and anniversary banners (I have a bad habit of waiting until the last minute to summon, even free pull, most banners; I've missed out on some because I forgot it was the last day), so I figured I'd give it a shot. Needless to say I haven't been this lucky in awhile. I got a 5* on all of my free pulls; free L!Eliwood on the legendary, free Mia on the tempest trial (I have been trying for her since her debut, FINALLY!!!), and free regular 5* eliwood on the bound hero (not pictured). And it only took me 30-40 orbs to get Lif! I was so happy with my haul I decided to just get the winter orb deal which put me right back up to my previous orb count. I'm still on track for Dimitri! Now I just need to hope I dont get burned too hard by V!Alm/Celica later and I should be fine. I might've used up all my luck again tho... XD
  7. Super random, but I was looking for my first post I made to answer a question for a thread, and I noticed you greeted me like 7 years ago, so thanks!

      Haha your welcome! It's kinda crazy thinking about how long I've been here; I've been mostly away dealing with life stuff for the past couple years, but I want to try and stay semi permanently now if I can. See you around~

  8. Hi Silva. :) I'm glad to see you're actually active on here again. I'm the person who took photos of you at Youmacon ^^

    1. Silver Lightning

      Silver Lightning

      Ahhh, yes I remember you!!! Thanks for taking photos of me, I was happy to be noticed~

      Yeah, I used to be way more active here back in the day before I entered the workforce full time; I've missed this place alot and wanted to come back and re-integrate myself here once more since I love this fandom so much. Glad to know you on here as well and hope to see you around! 😄

      BTW, I LOVE YOUR MICAIAH, SHE HAS SAVED MY BUTT SO MANY TIMES! XD

      You were AMAZING. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to take photos. You did such a wonderful job. 😭😭 I'll actually send you the photos in a private message if that's no problem. 🙂

      Ahh I do understand though. Life keeps us all busy but you gotta handle your business. Glad to see you around. I'll definitely be around myself. ^^

       

      LOL I'm glad she's putting in work for you. ❤️ She's got your back 😛

      Haha thanks! I do enjoy cosplaying her. Please do, my one issue at conventions is never having my phone out at opportune times to take photos (or take them well hah), so I always welcome photos from others~

      Adult life sucks to be sure, but it pays the bills and for my cons/cosplay lol. 

      Yup she's great. I'm surprised you recognized me considering I only recently caved in and spent all my grails on making Lyon; I still love my Julia, but its high time I made a 10+ unit at last. XP

  9. I just realized this exists. Name: Silva ID: 5461105488 Lead: Lyon Needless to say, as much as I love Lyon, I will be making post-skip Dimitri my new 10+ project whenever he gets in~
  10. Happy New Year SF!

    My resolution this year is to actually kick myself in the rear to spend more time around here!

    Hey, that rhymed~

  11. Hey, welcome back, friend.

      Hey! Just checked back in and saw this; sorry that I never replied in a timely manner months ago, but I'm hoping to be able to stick around more often now. Thanks and Happy New Year! :newyears:

  12. I'm a friend of Shadows. He would log on but it's been so long he doesn't remember his log in. But he wants to know if you have a discord?

  13. Dear goodness - I came here to say congrats for the Amiibo victory, and ended up reading ALL of that About Me page. Don't do things in half measures, or did you just have a LOT of time on your hands? In all seriousness, though, it's astonishing how much detail you've put into all the fanfic stuff(also, slight applause for the Zelda names I saw sprinkled in), not bad!

  14. Eyy
    Congrats on the amiibo

  15. I happened to see your message on the ColossalCon page, and I'm just letting you know that I'm here at colossal again this year and I'll be Lucina on Saturday; if you have time, please come to the Fire Emblem photoshoot at 3pm at the bridge outside. Hope to see you and maybe even Ace! :D

    1. Kaze

      Kaze

      Alright. Hopefully I'll be able to make it to the photoshoot tomorrow. I'm usually the one who runs Fire Emblem stuff at Colossal, but since I WASN'T planning on attending this year, that didn't happen. XD I'll probably get there around noon-ish, so barring any issues with the registration lines, I should make it to the photoshoot as Stefan.
