That's what I thought- isn't it a little early? Or are we losing pace again? (If only months were organised into consistent lengths... but fixing that would require moving the Earth's orbit.)

(If only months were organised into consistent lengths... but fixing that would require moving the Earth's orbit.) Main banners starting mid-month have always ended shortly before the end of the month: Echoes of Mystery was June 14-30 Rite of Shadows was May 15-30 World of Shadows was April 14-26 Blazing Shadows was March 14-30 Family Bonds was February 15-27 So it's about on schedule. What's odd, though, is that Ylissean Summer lasts until August 1. Before the Alm/Celica army banners were announced, I expected we'd get something mid-month like usual, but I figured it would end on August 1, matching the summer banner. So it's a bit strange that they're not lined up like that, and it raises the question of when to expect the next main banner: July 28 or August 1?

Thor Odinson Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Shit, cav banner has Titania and Olwen. I have both of them but my current Titania is -atk (ouch) and I'd just like to get more merge levels on my Olwen. Also would like +atk not -spd but neutralish Olwen is honestly already ridiculous with full cav buff and blarblade.

Interdimensional Observer Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 16 hours ago, Ice Dragon said: It's not simply that it "fits the story better", the Idenn arc brings closure to the story. It ties up the remaining loose ends because Idenn and Brunnya canonically exist and don't simply vanish into thin air if you fail to unlock the arc. Completing the game without completing the Idenn arc can be considered to be a mistake or failure made by the player, a game over with a pat on the back for doing "good enough", and I believe that to have been the intent of the authors. I feel its worth noting that in FE12 remake, they gave Marth two distinct character endings. In FE3, everything ended happily even if you didn't nab all five Spheres. In FE12 on the other hand, failing to get all the Sphere has Marth's character ending, the last on the long list of character endings, begin on a happy note, but then sours with mention that just as he was rebuilding, he had to fight another war against the revived Shadow Dragon. Given FE13 and FE14 now permit the heroes to fail in alternative dimensions, I think that when IS remakes Binding, they may do the same thing as FE12 and have Roy's character ending say on the premature ending "but the Dark Dragon returned one day...". I know Marth's ending didn't say anything about losing to Medeus, but I'd expect even with victory that the damages would be worse than had he stabbed Meddy soon after killing Hardin.

Anacybele Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) Finished the cavalry quests! Those were pretty easy. :P Though mainly because IS finally decided NOT to use the dumb "all allies must survive" requirement. I mean, I understand them wanting to use it SOMETIMES, but they'd been putting it on everything and that added a lot of unnecessary difficulty to them. I also tried a couple pulls on the cavalry banner for Titania (or Camilla so she can have her Brave Axe given to Freddy). One green in the first session. None in the second. Yeah, I quit after that. I didn't want to use many orbs because CYL is gradually getting closer. Edited July 20, 2017 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLNarshen Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Geez, as if I needed even more reasons to pull on red/blue. Might switch my focus to Olwen since Corrin-F can be pulled at lower rarities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I'd much rather IS put the 'all allies must survive' requirement on 1 time quests like this rather than the 15 time quests like Tenth Stratum with team of X. Mind, I'll take this over 'all allies must survive' on everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ONE orb for completing stratum 10 so many times is kind of a crappy reward too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
