I'll have to see if I want to just stick with Nino or feed Julia a 4* Klein (literally the reason I started pulling colorless orbs again lol). If you bring Sharena, then Nino is pretty much automatically at Julia level Attack with much better Speed anyway. Nino's probably the better of the two honestly, though Julia is just slightly behind.

Way back when I decided to try and pull Azura, it just happened to be during the Family Bonds focus, from which 3 of the 4 units are still insanely strong picks. I just want to use Julia again 'cause Julia. I'll probably run Sharena next season though, yeah. I might also do a few matches with Faye, since I went through the trouble of building her up and everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Odinson Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I kinda want a Clair if only to keep having flying Reposition, except this time in blue. Except im out of repositions so it doesn't matter anyway. Sharena I'm excited about using. Swapping out Rally Atk for Rally Res, though, because Olivia already covers Nino's atk buff. I'm getting to use full buff Nino again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clair strikes me as a flier team unit; she could probably pull off Brave/Desperation/Iceberg with that stat line and Hone Fliers, actually. Except I had enough "fun" getting together enough SP for that on Caeda...I don't even want to think about doing it again. 18 minutes ago, Arcanite said: Heh heh everyone is using Nino teams eh?

Extrasolar Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 So running my shiny new Alm through the training tower alongside my newly-promoted 4* Barst, coupled with my second 3* Nino that I used to replace my other one (thankfully, this one's not -Atk) and a Caeda that I recently pulled and threw on the team for the hell of it. And my Alm and Barst are too good. They're one-rounding everything at these low levels, and as I'm trying to use them to tank for my Nino, she never gets any of that EXP. Barst and Alm are level 6 while Nino and Caeda are level 2 and 3 at the moment. Too bad you can't de-equip weapons... Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a bear Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Oh thank god for that Arena preview, I would've lost my shit getting those last few levels for Navarre.

If we're gonna branch out to being able to adjust skills on the fly, what if we can trade skills between our units mid-map? Even better: Spoiler Skills get put on a trade market IS adds to the game where you can exchange skills for premium currency Spoiler LaD 3 starting at 20 orbs Spoiler And that's the fastest way to kill this game right there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so used to thinking about skills in terms of A, B and C (as well as the green and purple slots) that I never think of the weapon itself as a "skill," since a lot of them don't do anything special. 9 minutes ago, MrSmokestack said: Now, something I'd like to see is being able to unequip skills mid-map, though I don't see any way of doing that without complicating the interface.

I can see that working pretty well, and would add even more complexity and strategy to battles. ...Though on the other hand, there aren't a lot of situations in which you'd de-equip your maxed-out, high level skills, unless you're wanting to train lower level units with a meatshield to tank for them.

With Brash Assault, combined with Fury and Bartre's considerable HP, ATK and DEF, and his already lowish SPD, Bartre would be pretty okay running Brave Axe. Of course, this would give him Reinhardt-tier SPD, but that's not so bad when you're gonna be quadding people once Brash Assault is active and I'm sure Bartre can live after getting doubled from 23/24/26 HP with his DEF if you're fighting a lancer... I mean, watch out for magic and swordies, and Fury's damage will wear down Bartre over time so consider running some kind of healing support for him. But it could work. Especially if you ran Ignis, which would proc at the end of any quad-attack and would deal 24/26/28 extra damage on activation, which should, at the very least, put a sizable dent in whatever you're attacking with Bartre. Or, you could run this same set with an Emerald Axe instead of the Brave Axe. It doesn't have as much power as the Brave setup (since it doesn't hit 4 times with Brash Assault, and as such won't be charging up skills as quickly), but you'd be much better at handling Blues than the Brave Axe setup since you've packed Triangle Adept 3 into your weapon. Probably run Bonfire with this set, for 15/16/18 extra damage when it procs, since Ignis wouldn't be able to go off every time Bartre initiates with this build (neither would Bonfire, but you can get it every other combat with this build... you could also do that with Ignis tho, I suppose). Of course, I dunno if this would actually work, I just like it in theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
