MonkeyCheez3K Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) Oops, left 4 lances and a full stamina bar unused in GC and all the areas have been knocked out. Oh well, the 48 points lead from my team is good enough for me to not care. Good thing, too, still not enjoying it really.

Humanoid Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 1 hour ago, Xenomata said: Well I managed to clear Abyssal SOMEHOW. ...okay actually I looked up how to do Marth with as little SI as possible, and I found one that involved completely base Groom Marth, Lyon being built to be a bow killer, and Rein/B!Lyn being the assholes they are. It did call for Def Tactic 3 SS when I only had the normal one, but whatever. But after trying my hardest to replicate a number of mostly F2P guides for Abyssal Robin and failing because turns out F2P guides require you to have some neutral nature units when most of my units have natures, I went full rage with my Flier team and won by my own hand. So... yeah, guess I can be proud of being able to do the hard thing myself for once. Had some downtime after spending the last of my conquest lances, so I trawled the LHB thread looking for something suitable, and I ended up using the same strategy. I'd decided early on that an ugly accessory was worth precisely zero amount of feathers to me, but seeing that strat, all I needed was to give Luna to Lyon over his default (useless) Vengeance, so I rationalised it as being generally useful SI instead of the relatively useless SI demanded by the other strats (such as giving out multiple Hone Cavs, giving Draw Back to units I already have Reposition on and vice-versa). Now to look up something I can do with zero investment for Grima. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTroll Maxim Lapierre Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 16 minutes ago, Lord-Zero said: FE4 1st Gen banner? I’d go with Quan, Ethlyn and the token alt in the form of Lachesis. More Abyssal LHB reruns? I won’t touch those. The “prize” isn’t worth the effort of going through units with even more bloated stats. More often than not, if the GHB enemy is not an irredeemable specimen of evil, the banner has a character with a relationship with the GHB unit. Adean or Brigid is going be more likely than Master Knight Lachesis, who will likely be yet another sword cavalry. Especially with FE4 banners. Arvis and Julius both had lovers, and those lovers were featured on the banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanima Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I am so mad. Here I am, partacking in the horrible mistake that is sleep. Only to wake up and want to do at least one more GC match, so I can get the final orb from this mess. Except my team has been reduced to four areas and everything has been knocked out for the rest of this GC run. Whoever came up with longer rounds clearly didn't think about the consequences. It's just one orb, but I am still mad to lose out on it through no fault of my own. I already hated this mode, but now it's just completely unplayable.

I don't watch the AI, but you are right: It's better to actually play the game. I'm not using auto-mode for TTs for example, GC and Rival domains are the only modes where I'm using auto-mode at all. But if I want to do something else in RL and risk to lose orbs, I'd let the AI bring me to tier 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javi Blizz Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Looking back to August, I can say that has been one of the bests (if not the best) month for my F2P pulls: From Heroes with X skill: Free M!Grima, Free Ares From Festival in Hoshido: Gray, Lute From AoBH: Free Veronica, Veronica, Julia From Legendary Banner: Free F!Grima, Fjorm, WT!Reinhart And I didn’t even had that many orbs! xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlight Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) And I just got knocked out with 7 lance crests remaining. Guess I should've gone all out from the start of the final round.

MisterIceTeaPeach Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 First time I really had to skip a Legendary Banner (I call spending 35 orbs as a skip) because of so many other good banners out recently. Sorry Marth, but next time! Hopefully there will be less amazing banners coming soon. I know FE4 will get one, but I'd also like trying to get another focus unit from the CYL2 banner. For my very few orbs I had, I pulled quite a lot. Less than 100 orbs for Brave Roy and Brave Celica in the CYL2 banner, Gunthraa within 35 orbs from Legendary Banner and a free Brave Ike from CYL1.

Zapp Branniglenn Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 er whoops. Got caught up in something and missed the last round of GC. I had 12 stamina lances to burn plus more from ranking up. Looks like they could have used my help since we ended with three territories but had 17 at the end of the previous one. For somebody that loves this mode I've been pretty poor at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DehNutCase Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Hmm, Guidance was mildly interesting, but spoiled by the fact that Jamke moves idiotically with it. (He teleports right in front of your face even if he has nothing to shoot, assuming you had someone to take care of the teleporting axe armor.) And then turn 2 everyone dies, so... *shrug* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlight Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Kinda dislike that they're teasing us with a GHB and no banner announcement The GHB was meh with not much difficulty involved. At least for me Funny story. I suggested that before his skills were datamined, Jamke would come with Odd Atk Wave as the premium 5 star exclusive skill that GHB units come with as of late Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamke at least looks to have a cool pose. Also... the new Learn with Sharena feels like a personal attack on me specifically... *checks again to see who his earliest summoned 5* lv 1 vegetable is* I summoned that Mathilda a long time ago... before the Genealogy banner at least...
