Jman1115 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) So I finally pulled both Ike and Takumi. My current team is: Nino (Fury build w/ Moonbow and desperation) Tiki Young (haven't inherited Tiki Old weapon yet) Ephraim Olivia On the bench currently is: Lucina, Erika, Tharja, Marth, Camilla, Lucious, Takumi, Ike etc. I was wondering the following three questions: 1) Should I be using Ike (for story and events, not arena) and working on a build for him? Haven't looked into how he stacks up base stats wise and skill wise. It seems like one of his passives may make Aether actually worth using? Sword Breaker also seems like a situational skill that should be kept, but replaced with something else? My gut says get rid of both skills and take advantage of his distance counter go with a fury/vantage build. 2) Should I inherit Tiki Old's weapon for distance countering on Tiki Young or should I focus on getting Lucina Renewal? I feel like Lucina with a 10HP heal on 2 out of every 3 turns is a bit OP. 3) Should I be using Takumi? I have heard she is really strong, definitely seems to be. Just not sure how to fit her into my team comp. I feel like she may be a strong addition to an arena defense team?

Just not sure how to fit her into my team comp. I feel like she may be a strong addition to an arena defense team? Takumi is male. He is an excellent character to have, although not sure how well he works on a defence team anymore, since most people have counters for him. I say most - I have counters ,but depending on his teammates and the map, he can still be a pain, so he could work well in the right team :) For using Ike... I'd say definitely use him. He's another with two range counter, which is always good. Just keep him away from mages. I've heard tell that sword breaker is actually a good skill to have, since it basically lets him own many of the red units, as well as green, making him more versatile. I don't have him, though, and I stuck vantage on my Ryoma, so I can't talk. Not sure about 2, sorry ^.^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r_n Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 flier emblem on the 10th strata: still bad. Caeda is awful and not having the attack increasing flying skill makes everything twice as terrible. I've only won one fight all day with the flying team and that was because i used a light's blessing out of spite when an enemy camilla would, no matter hwat, double my entire team (or kill them before doubling) and get off her special. At this point hoping I pull a 4* Palla in my pulls for Ike just so I dont need to waste another 2000 feathers on promoting my 3 star. Low defense physical attacker should be a bannable offense is all i'm sayin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have less horses, but Eldigan/Ursula/Gunter/Clarine actually get the job done pretty well. Meanwhile I lack the only flying mage (and she's impossible to get) and there's no flying healer and i'm just as mad at video games as i was two months ago.

I heard she's good :) Caeda is ok. I use her on my flier emblem team but she needs a lot of support. it sucks that you don't have the other buffing skills!

Korath88 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 So today's great luck pull is...Celica?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I guess that confirms her as part of the next banner. Why else would she be in the fortune thing? :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh dang, you're right. I've been a bit nonchalant with using them grinding lately, expecting to get another batch this month. Guess I need to go back to saving them for when I really need it.

ILikeKirbys Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Yeah, I was surprised by Celica just suddenly showing up when I was re-rolling. Guess we know what the banner after Ike's will be... I had already guessed Celica was next, but still. Wonder if we'll see the rest of her banner's characters in the remaining fortunes...
