Xenomata Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) The Resplendent after Shanna will be Kagero: Honorable Ninja. Spoiler Frankly, what the actual hell? I honestly don't think you can keep making this straightfaced forever loyal retainer dress in every fetish costume possible without someone wondering if someone has a thing going on... ...it also kinda bothers me she still doesn't have her Prf weapon in her artwork. Either way, character isn't interesting to me, sorry Sothe looks like I'll have to buy your outfit when things look more interesting.

Tybrosion Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Meh, at least they finally acknowledged Fates again I guess? I really don’t understand a lot of these Resplendent choices lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Dragon Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Ahahaha. She's a watermelon. I'm glad they finally got around to Kagero. Of the Book 1 daggers, she's easily the one that needed the stats the most due to her exclusive weapon's not entirely sensical Atk comparison. With maximum investment, Kagero can now get her visible Atk up to 74 with double Life and Death, which is honestly kind of amusing. With her weapon's effect active, this gives her 78/58 offenses with an Atk Asset or 75/61 with a Spd Asset, which is usable, but not super amazing, given that this is with the stats from the A slot and Sacred Seal. For contrast, a maxed out Ulir with the same double Life and Death setup hits 79/68 with a Spd Asset, though Kagero has the B slot free to run Lull Spd/Def to reach 81/61 or 78/64, which is honestly not bad. She ends up with 104 physical bulk and 110 magical bulk when initiating combat from full health, which is also passable, though she definitely wants healing support if she needs to fight more than one round of combat. I'm tempted to actually build her, but that relies on me getting more copies of Ulir for Life and Death 4, who thankfully is most likely going to share a color with the next new Legendary Hero (which means I'm definitely going to be getting million copies of her and not the new character).  As for her outfit, I'm having trouble getting over the fact that she's a watermelon. Dokkalfheimr was the most likely outfit, and that was exactly what she got. It's okay, I guess. As just my personal taste, I'm not terribly fond of the swimsuit-like look of the double cleavage cutout. I also think the magenta accents contrast a bit too much with the muted colors of the rest of the outfit and kind of mess up the autumn-like colors. It's a bit disappointing they left her with the same weapon on her original art, which is just a Silver Dagger. Also, she's a watermelon.

Sunwoo Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 ... Yeah. Uh, there's definitely a Kagero dev. Who really likes her ... personality. Yeah. There's no other justification for Kagero getting two alts and a resplendent when Saizo has absolutely nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneStar Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 This Resplendent Kagero is so funny. The dots are suppose to be like eyes I guess. They don't want just singe dots on her chest area for obvious reasons, but another issue arises lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a bunch of characters with no alts that are far more popular than Bartre or Zelot. That definitely isn't a problem exclusive to Saizo. As for Saizo not getting a Resplendent, he is actually in about the same CYL5 tier as Shanna (231st) and Merric (258th). The problem Saizo faces is that Fates has a lot of Year 1 - Year 2 characters (more than Archanea and especially Binding Blade) so he's a lot more unlikely to get prioritized for a Resplendent (especially when Fates still has most of its heavy hitters left to use).

I like her fine, I actually like her more than most other Fates characters, but that outfit...yeah, well, uh, it certainly exists. Can't say I'm a fan.

Anyway the alt itself is fine, but I would have liked it a lot more if they really went with a 'nightmare fairy' look on Kagero. Kagero's artwork being hellish or nightmarish is a theme in her supports and I think that would make for a very well fitting resplendent. A more Triandra-ish look would do wonders on her. Still I like it well enough and at least its better then her Halloween alt. A alt that was so much wasted potential that I find it the worst alt in the game. They could have given her a freaky cool outfit, but instead they gave her a 'ninja in fanservice' outfit. A alt gimmick she already had in her spring banner so the alt was both boring and a repeat. I also agree that Saizo should have gotten something already. He might actually be perfect for Halloween too with his distaste for sweets and his grumpy attitude.

Mercakete Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 (edited) Well, this last Tap Battle season, I've been having fun with the FE4 theme. I've been using the red tome'd, big, happy Fala family: Arvis, Azelle, Julius, and Fallen Julia! I'm SURE Azelle is TOTALLY COMFORTABLE with this. =D Edit: Skimmed recent comments and hahahahaa-- Watermelon Kagero. Also, still waiting on male fairies. Also, why is she a Dokalfar? Her past isn't that tragic and she's handling what problems she does have (sickly brother) responsibly and just plain well. Heck, she's a bodyguard for the crown prince, so life's not too bad. Also, she'd better watch out for Summer Adult Tiki. Edited October 10, 2021 by Mercakete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's just the Veld re-run and the Seeds of Fodlan revival that are a day behind on the English calendar. They should be on the 6th and 8th respectively.

Othin Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Forgot to do my last two AR matches for the week until a half hour before the end of the season, got some bad matchups, and narrowly finished the last one with a minute to spare. That was... nerve-wracking. Had to really speed through the last one, too. Would have been an embarrassing way to fall out of Vault of Heaven for the first time.

Etrurian emperor Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I think Saizo would have been the funnier fairy unit. And given her two alts I don't really think Kagero needed the extra attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
