DehNutCase Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) 17 minutes ago, Quintessence said: I thought it was a future banner. What is it? It probably is, from the wording. (Seems like a 4 popular heroes banner with a base rate of 5% rather than 3%). Don't quote me on it, though, should probably ask @Ice Dragon to translate. (I can sort of understand Japanese, but only because I can read Chinese, and there's a lot of loan words. Unfortunately that's a half-assed reading at best.) Interestingly enough, however, because it's 4 heroes from all 4 colors, the actual 5* rate from any given color is probably slightly worse than pulling from a normal banner, from an orb where 2 or more focus units are in.

Falcom Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I just realized the sacred seal daily orb login bonus ends today, and that banner comes out tomorrow. Seriously IS, that's too cruel. You knew that we were gonna spend our orbs on Ike. They're probably laughing at their headquarters right now. Also Feh is too adorable. Why can't Feh be playable? ;-; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, starting at the usual time tonight, a banner with Azura, Hector, Ryoma, and Takumi with a combined 5% chance of a focus character. No information on an end date.

She's +Spd/-Atk lmao The losing team seems to get a 3x bonus (according to @shadowofchaos since I don't understand JP), so the winner may not be as clear as we think (...but probably yeah) And hey I'll be Team Julia too :D I look forward to having your Sharena again I'm honestly not sure who to put for my rep, but I'm currently between Ryoma, Ike, Reinhardt, and Nino (all 5* with skill inheritance) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hypothetical Dancing Blade that works off Speed would be pretty much strictly superior, however. (Since speed helps you land doubles.)

This could be my chance to get Julia up to +10 :O Or to get a merged Linde Or I could spend my orbs getting Hector or Ryoma merges or Azura It's so hard to decide I'm losing my mind You better not be one of the jerks I keep running into in arena with a high merged Julia. For real though, I don't understand how 9/10 Julias I come across are like +3-6, and there's usually a dancer on the team to rub salt in the wound even more.

This means, strangely enough, that you can more easily get non-focus green 5*s to merge than other colors, due to the effect of pity-rate on pull odds. I haven't done the math, but a simple way to think of it is like this: To get a +10 5* only unit, you'll, on average, pull enough of that color to get a +10 5* only of every unit in that color. Less units = less pulls needed. Edited April 28, 2017 by DehNutCase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Sigh. You'd think they'd up the character cap by now. What a pain. I want to pull for some more Distant Counter fodder, but there's just not enough space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less units = less pulls needed. They better start flooding the green unit roster soon then, because these +5 Julias need to get off my case. When I have a team of no merged units with a 4*, non-skill inheritance Virion tagging along for the season bonus, you'd think they'd leave me alone. I haven't actually lost any matches to them, but they still spook me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 500 total character slots and 124 different characters, that's an average of 4 copies of each character, which means I can on average only make a team of 3-star +3s. ...Which is super underwhelming.

Edit: There seems to be about 50 3* pullables. If your whole box were 3*s, about 40% of them would be able to be +10'd.
