SatsumaFSoysoy Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 7 minutes ago, JSND Alter Dragon Boner said: my issue with that is his stats seems underwhleming i guess? granted 45/34/37/30/26 is still a fairly solid specs, but compared to most modern Swordlord is way worse distributed While his refine is basically turning him into themed buffer for anything which seems really good. IDK i'm questioning between getting his refine or Mich lol I just don't see why you would both build Corrin and give him that refine if you were to use him. If you want a buffbot, Marth and Eirika are so much better since they buff more than one unit. To begin with, you probably built him to be offensive before this update, since he had Darting Blow 2 on Yato before. Why not just get a stat refine and pump up his statline so he can somewhat match BST powercreep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunwoo Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 I think I'm most definitely taking the speed refine for my Corrin. He's +atk, so not the fastest, but Yato's new skill and the speed refine would put him at 37 speed, which is very respectable. 43 speed on initiation with the darting blow 3 I gave him is pretty good. Possibly second only to my +spd Leif. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corrin at C buffs as much as Marth at full power adjacent S. To begin with Marth really is a 3P1 unit most of the time in a sense that using Marth as a buffer already forces you to use half the squad you prob would focus on 1 unit to superbuff, so having Corrin buff more than one unit isn't really as bad as it seems Eirika buff is Hone, so she's never a valid comparison for this ever. Marth and Corrin and replicate everything Eirika did for support without even trying to change how they work as a unit LIke the main thing with Eirika before Ref is that outside of some Seals, Seals is a low level opportunity cost so a character can easilly copy her through double Hone set up or she's completely shuffled out by Hone (category). Granted Eirika's refine does exactly what you said(pump her statsline so she can somewhat match BST power creep where she sits at 30/39) and i personally considered it one of the best refine I mean i still think Marth is better overall since he murders the hilariously common F Grima but bulding him into the R version didn't really took away from his general build. I guess you can go Swift Sparrow -> Swordbreaker -> HA/HS R for a matchup cleaner who gives 8/4/8/4 buff to a single unit at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisfitMiju Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 It's disappointing that Corrin can't reap the benefit of +6 to his stats like his support partner can but I think this refines pairs pretty well with takumi,brave lucina,hinoka, and camilla it's cool that it at least fits him thematically and references his personal skill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tybrosion Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Now with Clair built up, I'm at 100% completion for the Valentia characters! Or I would be if I gave the remotest crap about Berkut. Though to be honest, I'd prefer to keep it like this just for kicks. You don't need to comment on how I can get ridiculously petty towards characters I don't like. I am very much self-aware of this fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the new dude is the third of the scorching triad that Laegjarn mentioned in her last stand and Gunnthra (& I think Fjorm?) did mention siblings, plural. I do agree Fjorm probably should have mentioned them more, and not had it as easy to miss lines even if you have the units, mind you. Yeah i'm talking about in the main story not from Gunnthrás quotes(which requires if you have her) the time their finally mention in the story is now by Fjorm and at the very near end of the arc which was sloppy but gacha stories aren't very good some other series do it well though.

I just personally think that if I'm going to invest in a buffbot with a poor statline, I'd want a bit more flexibility from them. The refine isn't terrible in the way Regal Blade is, since it still gives a lot of boosts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the way i'm thinking at using MCorrin right now would make him never get anything above C lol Also Regal Blade R is bad? I kinda disagree with it although thats probably because i always considered it one of the most busted Prf before refine and then it gets refine which pushes it further as one of the most boring but stupidly good ones. 6 A 3 D 6 S 3 R with barely any set up requirement is batshit insane Like its one of few weapons who broke 4 extra stats baseline for Refinement Self buff and the requirement is a joke since Mage Infantry isn't exactly the hardest requirement I guess theres the whole stuck on LLoyd factor. Superman Lloyd only have 38/41/23/33 pure specs whereas a modern swordy with Killer R would be way better like Slayer Mia with 32/43/28/25 with broken as shit Killer effect In a sense its comparable to Lucina who have 38/40/29/23 specs but Lucina need adjacent state Edited May 10, 2018 by JSND Alter Dragon Boner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintessence Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 With new refinements, I'm debating whether I should risk and go Rose's Thorns Camilla's Axe, or invest in DC DD Eckesachs Zephiel, ooor just finish up Lloyd with his new refinement? Plz halp Also, I'm definitely promoting Camilla, but which nature is better for her: +Atk -HP or +Spd -Def? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaden Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I got around to listening to the new characters' voices and I think Julius is the first character to say something for his normal attack in English. As far as I know with the English voices, nobody says anything for their normal attacks except for Julius. They're all just grunts unlike with the Japanese voices where most characters have one normal attack line where they say something or Rhajat who speaks for both her normal attacks in Japanese. Also, I get the feeling whoever voices Helbindi in English might be a fan of Fight Club -- which I still need to watch one day -- if he's not using his real name. Raymond K. Essel is probably a real name, but it's also one letter off from Raymond K. Hessel from Fight Club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It essentially was just an A-skill (Atk/Spd 2), and it was alright when it came out, but not broken or anything. It got blown out of the water by pretty much everything that came out post-CYL too. Aside from Lloyd's stats still being trash, infantry Mage is also a pretty mediocre for Tier 19.5 Arena nowadays. Their low score is one thing, but there are now really common targets in Arena that they can't kill, even with buffed Blade weapons. Reds get walled off by Myrrh, M!Grima and Spd versions of Fae, while Greens just get gatekept by Berkut's Lance Effie. Blue has it better since Reds don't have good Res, but they can't reliably kill fellow Blues unfortunately. If you want to run Lloyd, a mediocre unit himself, then you're forced to run a second mediocre unit (of which Linde and Delthea are the best picks lol), and then you only have one slot left before bonus unit/Leg Hero. I guess none of this is a problem if you run your Lloyd PvE, but I could have just fielded Black Knight and it probably would have been fine lol.

silverserpent Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Decided that my 3* +Atk/-Res Camilla will be my new base for eventual merges. Just after I finish merging the GHB units all together. And my M!Robins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) Well, the outgoing Fates banner seems to be very confused about who is on it. I managed to pull 2 copies of Kana way back when it was first released. Now that I go to finish up the banner, I get Myrrh Faye Hardin Kana, at which point I stopped pulling green Larchel Takumi, [+Spd, -Atk] again because, you know, the entire point of getting duplicates is to get the same nature again Shigure, at which point I stopped pulling blue Takumi, [+Spd, -Atk] again because, you know, that last one wasn't enough to drive the point home Hinoka, finally, but [+HP, -Res] Faye, on the pull right after Hinoka Brave Lyn, 2 pulls after Faye (there was a Priscilla in between) Hinoka, [+Def, -Res] I give up now. I got three Takumis today. I can +10 him now if it weren't for the fact that Henry, Lyn, and maybe Jakob want a certain skill of his. And the fact that all of my Takumis have neutral or worse natures. And, you know, I really need 3 Takumis with the exact same nature. At least I can be grateful for the increased quality of pitybreakers. And now I need to clear out 2 more spots for blue Kana before tomorrow because we still haven't gotten another barracks expansion.

Zeo Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) Even though this banner is about to drop, I guess out of respect to the vampires I'll still put this in spoilers. Spoiler Silly artwork aside, Ishtar is incredible. I figured with the kind of buffs she's getting every turn (and every other turn) they would have capped her at something like 30 base SPD, but 36 with a boon reaching to 39 means a +SPD Ishtar reaches 49 SPD on initiation. Guaranteed and with no way to prevent it. There's nothing she can't double. Except maybe a +10 Ayra and with a simple Speed seal or a hone/drive she probably doubles her too. You have to initiate against her. If she attacks first you die, period. She's going to be a problem. At least she isn't on a horse though. Yep, I went there.

YotsuMaboroshi Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 So as far as the story chapter goes: Spoiler I think that the Ylgr that joins us at the end of the chapter might be Loki, not the real Ylgr. She addresses the player by name during the chapter end, but Fjorm was never able to introduce the player because her coughing fit interrupted the introduction (at least in the English version, not sure about the Japanese text). Considering how relatively unsubtle most of the foreshadowing is in FEH, Loki being the escaped Ylgr seems kind of likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
