Anacybele Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 8 minutes ago, MaskedAmpharos said: Other units that are cavalry mage counters are Raigh (red), who everyone got a free version of at the beginning of the game, and Ursula (blue), for whom there was a GHB a while back (I can't recall if you beat it or not though). If you don't want to use F!Robin because she's green then those two units are good options. That said, I'm seeing more blue units than red on defense teams these days, so double green may not be as bad as it once was. Also, you mostly want her there for other cavalry mages, and the most threatening cavalry mages are either blue or green, so green might actually be the ideal color for an anti-cavalry mage. She also comes with B Tomebreaker naturally, so she's a good counter to non-cavalry blue mages too. Yeah, I ditched Raigh. I don't like him anyways. He comes off as a bratty jerk to me. And really? I see mostly red units, especially Falchion wielders. A couple times in a row I ended up against teams that were ENTIRELY swords. 9 minutes ago, GaleforceAbuse said: Azura is a really rare pull. If nothing else, how about this? Azura and Olivia function 90% the same. Practice some more with Olivia in the arena. Get used to doing some quick calculations or checking ranges and skills. That way, when you get your Azura, you'll know how to use her to the fullest (because using her as a combat unit, even against red swords, is still not ideal.) I would go with this idea, but I'm still not confident in my math/calculation skills... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Branniglenn Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Is there any confirmation of a Celica plus three others banner coming soon? I'm personally hoping for Valbo, Saber, and May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm personally hoping for Valbo, Saber, and May. I'm not sure if there's been any confirmation, but I think it's a foregone conclusion, since Celica wasn't in this Banner. The only question is whether it will be right after this Banner or delayed a couple weeks to coincide with the world wide release. I just thought, with the Skills that they've added to give extra XP, Crystals, and Badges, do you think we'll get a Skill to increase SP? Now that would be one useful Skill.

It'll be on a seasonal banner like the Spring Festival one, to go with a colorless unit with a horrible stat spread, just so people can burn money for orbs on it.

Anacybele Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) I'm going to draw a Summer Ike sometime. :P His weapon will be the Drumstick Axe, an axe that looks like a chicken leg, and he'll be dressed in a tank-top with a KFC-spoof logo, swim shorts, sandals, a towel hanging from his shorts, and some goggles around his head in place of his headband. Hee hee. And for good measure, I'll have him eating an actual chicken leg. lol Summer is about swimming and grilling, so this works! XD The Drumstick Axe heals 5 HP every three turns and has a might of 13. Summer Ike's design will use RD Ike, but for this variation, he trades his high defense for high res. His attack is still great though, he just has low def and better speed. Edited April 16, 2017 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethany81707 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Meanwhile, I hate the beach and it'll be the middle of winter during the Summer banner anyway, so unless they choose someone I actually know enough to like, I'm not interested. Spoiler At least we know Tharja will be on the Winter Banner to be dressed like something you'd wear in summer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskedAmpharos Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I've mentioned this before, I think, but I'd honestly much rather see festival yukatas for the summer banner than the clichéd swimsuits we're bound to get. Not that I'd say no to a few choice waifus in swimsuits though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yukatas are something like 1 or 2 layers of fabric, usually cotton or some other light fabric, if memory serves. They're also used at hot spring inns and are good for cooling off. I'd imagine them to be about as breezy as the hakama I have for kendo, which is pretty breezy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tank top would be a little more practical too. I can't picture guys in kimonos or yukatas anyway since they look feminine to me. In fact, I've only ever seen women in them. And if I were to draw a female in summer style, like Elincia, she'd be getting a summer dress or some such rather than a swimsuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When males wear a yukata, the sash goes around the waist instead of immediately below the breasts, leaving the two sides of the top half loose. Male yukata fanservice usually has the two halves very loose and parted (about as much as Saizo's top in Heroes or more) to show some skin.

bethany81707 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Who's Owain's father in that example, @MaskedAmpharos? Because I really don't need more reasons to think Chrom/Lissa is a potential pairing. On the subject of the holiday banners, what do we have for Autumn? Does that one technically count as the Halloween banner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly just because they had no canon hair color and didn't want to draw the art three dozen times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
