I haven't counted the number of orbs on offer, but I expect that to soar to 180s, or at least high 170s. The 221 feathers I have left over will definitely be doubled. Unfortunately, there's nothing else you can watch go up on the top. EDIT: With 37 quests of assorted variety cleared, I got myself 179 orbs and 821 feathers. Still have plenty and orbs and feathers to collect (Training Tower, 5 Voting Gauntlet wins, 11-5 Lunatic with colourless, and I fell 3 green foes short of those 500 feathers through both stamina bars and arena challenges).

I'm going to try for Ninian and Julia mainly to have Dancer variety/super high merge on one of the most splashable unit atm Having 1 free pull for this month's banner sounds really nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcsilas Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 While the amount of missions is large, having the gauntlet coincide with the monthly quest is actually convenient since I can finish the monthly quests faster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Tried pulling for NS!Corrin; but I ended up getting a 4*Reinhardt.

My Olwen is +HP -atk, which is unfortunate. I don't really care for any of the banners going on right now besides hers (since I have all three of the QR guys anyway), so I'll just throw orbs at it until it expires just because I can.

Kaden Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Well, the nice thing about the gauntlet is that I can use units I haven't gotten like every single damn red mage for example. Anyway, regular Lyn's map select quotes are so high-pitched compared to bride Lyn's. It's like regular Lyn's from her prologue while bride Lyn's from the main story or post-Blazing Sword. The quotes are kind of cute, but then I'm reminded that it's Lyn. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenomata Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Is it just me or does it kinda feel like all the "good" units are female? I know Reinhardt, Hector, and Ryoma are all male, but then you look at all the other units. All the dragons, good or bad, are female. most A+ tier units are female, save for Xander, Eldigan, Ephraim, and Ike. The "best" Colorless units, regardless of weapon type, are all female. Many of the "best" mages are female, which okay, but many of the Male mages are B tier. All the C tier units are male. Almost every Staff user is female, which okay most staff users are female, but one of the males barely counts as a male in the first place. Most of the time, new units, especially Event units, have the female be the "best" of the bunch, regardless of how the whole group stacks up as a whole. Mathilda and Clair are probably the worst new females we've gotten so far, but it's okay because Clair's new units gave us Faye the unit with the Firesweep Bow, and Mathilda's banner gave us Delthea. It shouldn't matter. In fact, it doesn't. It usually doesn't matter to me the gender as long as they are a good unit/character to use. And maybe I'm focusing too hard on nothing. But no matter what I do, none of the unit sets I make can ever escape from being either a harem or all females. Even though I have perfectly fine Male units (Alm, Brave Frederick, Hector, Xander, hell I have TA3 Brave Cain for some reason), the majority is always Female, and as someone who likes having an even amount of males and females to pick from at any given moment, it bothers me a lot. Hell, my next planned training projects are all female (Cordelia, Brave Hana, TA3 Raven Sophia). Just... something that crossed my mind earlier. Ignore me if you please, I needed to rant a little.

Well, that's one reason not to do an All-Girls run of Heroes. It'd be dreadfully boring. The fact that you can't avoid male units because of the summoning mechanics is also a good reason to not do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres.... a logical explanation for this. The standard fire emblem good class are mostly female Whats the best unit class? Mage. What mages are generically feh good(high atk or high spd) in mainline series? If you exclude Pent, Sety, and Lewyn its female really Looking 1by1 after this: Dancer is female only class barring Reyson Pegasus Rider is a female dominated class so it makes sense the good one is female Wyvern Rider is a female dominated class so again make sense the good one is female Horse Mage is a female dominated class That really leaves you with only Lord, Cavalier, and Infantry and these are indeed male dominant. Ike and Ryoma for sword outstrips Lucina. Lance have Ephraim. Axe have Raven and Legion Cavalier have Xander Camus Frederick As for Archer while you mention B Cordelia, i counter it with literally everything else. The list of best archer is actually male dominant. B Cord happen to be the best RIP Gordin though. He used to be the best archer in the series :( Edited August 1, 2017 by JSND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, my next planned training projects are all female (Cordelia, Brave Hana, TA3 Raven Sophia). Just... something that crossed my mind earlier. Ignore me if you please, I needed to rant a little. I think's it's just coincidence. Some of the units are based on game stats, so their 'good quality' comes from those. For example, Effie's sky high Attack stat, Hana's glass cannon-ness and Kagero being the Attack-based ninja in Fates, reflects their power in Heroes. Delthea was a great magic nuke in Echoes, atlhough Mathilda actually is kind of nerfed/not as good here. Some units like the dancers and manaketes are female because, well, that's what they are. In terms of mages, not a lot of males mages have legendary tomes (there's Reinhardt, and Merric who has a niche for deleting fliers and being defensive but the metagame revolves around ORKOing asap). Robin for example, has really balanced stats because that's how he was in Awakening, and he doesn't have his own tome so he's not as good as say, Linde with her Aura or Julia with Naga. To be honest I say more power to them. Most of the lords in Fire Emblem are guys, so if they shine in Heroes that's all good as well. Just have to wait for more characters to balance things out I guess? That said some females aren't as good in this game compared to the base game, like Oboro or the infamous Lachesis.

Looking at the tier list, it's mostly mages and lance users where females are dominant (and staff users, obviously, but those are all placed relativly low on tier lists anyway). For instance, while Bridelia is the best archer, most other female archers are not that great and there's plenty of good male archers. The main problem is that mages are just very OP, and the fast hard hitting mages are all female. I personally find myself using male units more then female ones (my main arena team consists of all male units and while my build units have about a 50-50 ratio, a lot of the female ones are more support or niche characters). It might just be me being weird though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
