Eridras Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I decided to half-heartedly try for Elise this morning. First session got me a pair of 3-star units: Serra and Saizo. The second session got me a 3-star Virion. At that point, I realized this was basically all I had to look forward to, so I just stopped.

Truffa Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I, hopeless because Lucius is nor in the gautlet or banner, go to waste my orbs; only one colorless and five red, the colorless was Serra, then I said "wathever" and then in the first red come home Alm the Thotslayer! I'm happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSbardock84 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Pulled a 5 Sakura and then a 4 Kagero. Then I was feeling lucky so I exited that summoning and tried again and got 5 3 stars, all duplicates of characters I don't use :( I probably won't summon on this again until I see what the next summoning is.

Zeo Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Had 5 orbs, went to the Vantage banner for Yolo. Found 2 blue orbs and one Colorless (of course right?) did the top blue orb and got a *4 Gwendolyn. Hone armor is nice except I only have 2 armors and already have a *3 Gwen. It was still nice but it bothers me that a Gordin or Reinhardt could have been in the other orbs. This is why I shouldn't snipe orbs, it never works for me. Always do full pulls if you're F2P. Darn my impatience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darn my impatience. If you're properly color hunting, you should still be saving up 20 orbs and then pulling all orbs of the colors you are going for. You'll have no regrets that someone you might have wanted was in another orb, and you'll (usually) get the discount for pulling more than one orb in a session.

True, but then you run the risk of A. something like 3 of a certain color in one pool then 3 of the same in the next, so you're still missing out or B. losing out on potential *5s or good fodder from the other colors. Though if you're sniping that likely doesn't matter to you, but orbs are precious. I can't get my barracks past 150 because I keep needing fodder. At 0 orbs, I'm not even sure if I'll be able to pull from the Vantage banner again before it ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're color hunting, fodder and 5-stars from other colors are not what you're after. If your goal is getting 5-star characters and that is the goal that is most important to you, pulling only from colors with high 5-star rates has a higher 5-star-to-orb ratio than any other pull behavior. Numbers don't lie. Variation due to small sample size will always be there, but in the long run, your numbers will converge on a higher average.

By that logic pulling from a banner like the Echoes one is technically the most efficient. The problem is people usually pull for a specific character rather than simply trying to acquire a *5 character. Also for a focus with only one of a specific character in the pool the increase could be... minute in comparison to the loss of resources gained from full pulls. The higher five stars rates seem to be a double edged sword regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunwoo Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 This wasn't me, but one of my IRL friends who plays FE Heroes ended up doing a summoning session or two today. The first one wasn't too remarkable. I told her that she should probably not pull the three colorless stones on the cleric banner, so she stopped at a partial summoning getting nothing of note. After that, eclipse convinced her to spend the remainder of her orbs on the vantage banner. And then my friend got a Hector. On the vantage banner. I say that was lucky, since she only had five 5-stars, and three of them were red swords. (The other two were blue.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) 26 Orbs, couldn't resist the impulse again. After something like four *3's you see literally everywhere (Lon'qu, Sophie, Olivia and a Serra), this: Eh. Likely going to skill-fodder him for Fire Boost. Second one this banner, after Athena. Still looking for Katarina. :E Edited June 25, 2017 by Soul~! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
