Anacybele Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Just now, MaskedAmpharos said: I train units on 10th all the time, so I don't really see the issue here. 8-10 is more or less the same, so I just go for whichever my trainee has a better color matchup against. Also @Anacybele the general consensus is that 5 cd (or even 4 cd) skills are unfavorable compared to their 3 cd counterparts because the extra power isn't worth the extra turn it takes to charge. Just think of how many times Aether procs in match. No more than 1-2 times in a standard Arena match, right? Whereas an Ike with Quick Riposte (or just fighting someone he doubles) can activate Bonfire or Draconic Aura every single round of combat with Heavy Blade, which most people like better. To each their own though. If you like Aether best, then by all means keep Aether. You forget that Heavy Blade makes Aether proc faster than usual AND it can heal more damage than any staff in the game ever could. That's a godsend in a game where healers are not viable and it could very well save an Ike from a finishing blow. I'd rather have a skill that procs slightly slower, but heals all that damage without the need of a healer. Also, Swordbreaker helps proc it since Ike will always double swords with it so long as he's in its HP margin. If people like something else more, that's their choice, but I will always believe that it's an inferior choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to step back and stop playing up Ike and actually calculate before you make statements like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavy Blade essentially turns Aether from a 5 cd skill to a 4 cd skill, so you still can't proc it in a single round of combat unless Ike has Quick Riposte AND is doubled by the enemy AND has enough attack to proc Heavy Blade on them. In any case, as you say, it's a matter of preference, so I won't try to convince you to change your mind or anything.

The strongest healing staff is Recover, which I've never seen heal more than 12, maybe 13 damage. Aether heals 16, like I said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aether heals 16, like I said. Rehabilitate heals more the lower the injured unit's HP is. Anything less than 7, and Rehabilitate heals them right back up to full. So technically the most Rehabilitate can heal in a single heal is 62 HP (used on a Zephiel w/ HP +5 and the HP +3 seal with 1 HP). Obviously not everyone is Zephiel, but when utilized properly, Rehabilitate can still heal over 30-40 HP pretty consistently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ike is so good that he doesn't really NEED to proc a skill that fast. He can do fine enough without procing a skill in every round of combat. Heavy Blade and Quick Reposte can't be used together, I think, because they're both A skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSmokestack Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) @Anacybele, 5 CD Skills on average like to proc once near the end of the game against an enemy unit who is at less than half health. This cheats you out of the potential health you could have gained from the Sol effect on top of that. Heavy Blade works much better with lower CD like Draconic Aura or Bonfire. Even default Luna uses it way better. Why tank hits when you can make your output both higher and more consistent? And like Amph mentioned, Ike never procs Aether when attacking and only procs it against units that double him while his speed tier is inflated via QR or a Weaponbreaker. Not to mention he needs higher attack. Extremely situational. Ike is a collection of stats with a sword that lets him counter from two tiles away. That's it really.

I'm simply saying that some people prefer being able to proc a skill every round, and others (like yourself) do not. Also Heavy Blade is an A-skill while Quick Riposte is a B-skill, so they can be used together. 3 minutes ago, Anacybele said: Proof/source, please?

EDIT: Also just personal experience: I regularly use Priscilla when training units in the tower, and Rehabilitate has been a godsend that has saved my trainee from certain death more than once.

Enemies will not scratch them, but recoil will eventually bring them low enough. Then you can check yourself and see through your own eyes.
