Rezzy Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 9 minutes ago, Rafiel's Aria said: Yeah... No new GHB last month. I love the BHB because those orbs are NICE. But I don't think I like them more or less than the GHB. Those new characters are always sweet. Let's pretend Berkut is better than he is. I'd love to get a Tellius GHB. Oliver would probably be a really good choice for a PoR villain. But I suppose we did just get the BK. If I had to guess, we'll get another BHB before a GHB. But I've got my fingers crossed for Arvis sooner rather than later. I would live to get Oliver. Even though he's a Bishop, it would be cool to have him as the first unit with Nosferatu. Something like a 10 Might tome that has built in Daylight. 1 minute ago, r_n said: Armor banner! Featuring Draug, Wendy & Sheena Featuring Wendy with her proper name and better art.

I'm still on the lookout for a +SPD Rody...and a non -ATK Luke. RIP. An all blue Moonbow banner would be hilarious though. Now that I know Luke is actually a decent unit, I wouldn't mind another chance at getting him. I do have a +Spd Roderick though, and I can confirm that he's pretty fun. Shares a VA with Seliph too, which is an instant plus for me. I wish you luck in getting them if they are up next. 11 minutes ago, r_n said: Armor banner!

That would create headaches I feel since then the game would have two cooldowns to monitor. Offensively that might be too good too.

Why does everyone pick on poor (G)Wendy? :( It's the product of FE's caste system. In FE6 she was born into near total uselessness and abject unworthiness of being raised, and the stigma of her atrociousness has not left her even in a world where her FE6 origins don't matter at all. It's a sad thing, be merciful and convert her soul to Feathers so that she may become part of some high caste character's arsenal. 41 minutes ago, Rezzy said: It seems like every GHB has been featured in some way or had some connection to a recent Banner. There's the rumored Arvis GHB, but I can't imagine that coming out before the rumored FE4 Banner. There could be a Tellius GHB with like Ashnard or Petrine or something. Or maybe they'll do another Bound Hero Battle to hold out until Arvis. They've really slowed down on the GHBs after doing them every couple weeks for several months. We've only had Valter in the last couple months haven't we? We didn't get one at all during September. Either they're looking for ways to prolong the lifespan of this game, or they're taking their time designing new battles. Probably a combination of both. The first few months of Heroes were intentionally very Grand Heroic to lure people in. Now that they have you by the orbs, you're here to stay and they can take it slow. 23 minutes ago, Rezzy said: and better art. Dare I say one could make that argument with practically every Heroes char? Maybe not all by the same person at once, but methinks none of the artwork is totally above criticism.

And making a GHB unit pullable for a limited time only would actually be kinda neat, unless they just did two characters. Wow you’re really optimistic aren’t you But real talk, I think a great skill fodder banner would be Heroes with Reposition. Spur Atk, Brave Axe, Triangle Adept, and a 3 Mov Brave Mage? Sounds great to me. 45 minutes ago, Othin said: Do people even still use physical infantry units? Ephraim was one of my first 5* units and a mainstay on my arena teams.

I can't speak for the Japanese name for Nosferatu, but being a synonym for vampire and its effect being to suck the life out of one lifeform to heal yourself seems very necromancy and dark magic to be. I don't like to throw the word anorexic around, but her waist makes me wince and she seems sort of stretched vertically. 22 minutes ago, Ice Dragon said: Because I don't see why NoA seems to dislike nickname-like names for their characters.

Luke is a bona fide name on it's own, going back to the Bible.

It could just always activate Daylight, hence the lower Might compared to other personal tomes. We've already got weapons with a Breath of Life Effect. I guess they could just do that, too. Maybe it's hard to design the GHBs, but we certainly aren't at risk of running out of villains any time soon. 17 minutes ago, MrSmokestack said: But those boots. They are so painful to look at.

Although most of the characters they changed don't really strike me as being interested in using nicknames. Especially Roderick; I feel that it better matches his New Mystery portrayal while contrasting well with Luke's. 21 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: It's the product of FE's caste system.

Yeah, I can understand why she's picked on in reference to FE6 specifically. Although I kinda like using her in FE6; I used her in my first playthrough (because I had no idea who was good and who wasn't) when I used savestates, and it's become a sort of tradition to use her even on my physical copy of FE6. That doesn't mean I'm defending her as a unit there though, she's definitely far from the best. 22 minutes ago, MrSmokestack said: Wow you’re really optimistic aren’t you It's the only reason I was okay with getting a 5-star Eliwood from the mini Tempest Trial banner.

The Japanese for Nosferatu is Resire (from the Latin Redire- "to return" I believe). Japan does have a Nosferatu in the GBA games, but in English we call it Fenrir. This said, the NA use of Nosferatu worked in the short-term with the GBA games, it's Tellius where the name became an oddity with the HP drain spell being Light again. Redire sounds perfectly fine as a tome for me, since Latin is all fancy and elegant and in the context of Light magic has a whole religious element it can take advantage of. Latin also works decently for occult of a gothic kind too regarding Dark, so I wouldn't have minded if NoA had gone with Redire back in the day instead. Because I don't see why NoA seems to dislike nickname-like names for their characters. Why discriminate against people who prefer to be called by a nickname instead of by their legal name? There is a little irony here in that the first character ever to be translated out of Japan goes by a nickname everywhere.

Moreover, she's already dealing with Reiny as a +Spd, which is allowing her to avoid doubles. I'm tempted to say more Res is just a dump stat for her- and since you're not giving her a Resistance-type Ploy, I question whether she needs more of it. You have a good point, specially if she'll be with Ninian and be favored of Fortify Dragons. By then, I can give Hone Spd to any other mamkute and let her reach 35 spd!
